    Wallabies Jerseys Going Cheap

    What's the store called? I'm interested.

    Agreed, that's why I liked John Williamson's rendition at last years Bledisloe. He really stirred the crowd up, I felt ready to take on the Kiwi's head to head and I was in my living room over 850km away

    Wallabies pecking order

    I think either Sharpe, Horwill or Genia should be the skipper. They're all players who lift with the captaincy and they all have cemented positions in the starting XV. I think Genia hasn't been taking on the line as much as he was last year, and I think the loss of the captaincy has a lot to do...

    Completely agree Charger. For me, I love John Howard's contribution. Opens the first advertisement and he's held in pretty high esteem throughout Australia. It shows that everybody up to the highest office in the land wants the Wallabies to win. My second favourite (despite not being a soccer...

    Ma'a Nonu to the Sharks?

    I don't understand why the Hurricanes let him go? His attitude can't be that bad, he seemed genuinely upset when talking about his departure. Next year Cruden should be performing a bit more consistently and a backline of Weepu-Cruden-Gear-Nonu-Smith-Savea-Jane would rival the best in the...

    Wallabies Trinations Squad

    I think it should be O'Connor. He's one of the most creative players in Australia, and he's the closest thing we've got to Quade. Also means we can keep a backline of: Genia O'Connor Mitchell Giteau Ashley-Cooper Ioane Beale

    Wallabies Trinations Squad

    I think that 'on his day' Quade Cooper would be the first player picked in a World XV. That being said, it is subject to when he is 'on his day'. Bob Dwyer said that to win the Rugby World Cup you need five World XV players. Do we have five? 1. Tendai Mtawarira 2. Tatafu Polota-Nau 3. Martin...

    What's the point of the Samoa game?

    Who's ahead of him? He's been the Waratah's best lock this year by far. Sharpe, Simmons and Horwill are ahead of him, yes, and I think he and Wykes are on almost equal footing in terms of form, but I see Timani as having more potential. I'd like to give Timani a cap, as not only would exposure...

    Wallabies Trinations Squad

    Can anyone remember a couple of years ago when the ARU wanted to hold that 'Possibles vs. Probables' trial for the Spring Tour? It would have gone ahead, if only RUPA hadn't have thrown a temper tantrum and demanded higher pay. It fucked the ARU around because they had to refund some memberships...

    Australian Schoolboys and National Championships 2011

    I know it's a big call, but I wouldn't be surprised if Sam Greene (QLD1 Bench) makes the premier squad. He goes to the same school as Grant Davies, and are both playing exceptional rugby, with Sam Greene performing remarkably in Davies' injury-forced absences. He can play either Fullback or...

    Watching that left me covered in Goosebumps, as Mitchell scored against the Kiwi's and Sharpey made that line-out steal I felt a shivering sensation down my spine. I can't wait for the RWC, I'm feeling so good about our chances. And kudos to whichever company put that ad together, brilliant...

    I know they used to give them out at Camp Wallaby before the Spring Tour. Mitchell Chapman's father was Head of Boarding at Brisbane Grammar, and he gave the training camp pair to one of the boys before he left last year.

    Wallabies Trinations Squad

    To be honest, I only want people in World Cup Contention playing against Samoa. Sure, both Phibbs and Phipps have had good seasons, but I'd rather have Giteau start at #9. Not only is Deans considering using him as a back-up halfback, but he's also played there before and it gives us an...

    QLD GPS Rugby 2012

    Do you know much about other schools recruiting/key players for next season Light? What do you consider the 'key positions'? #2, #3, #4, #7, #9, #10, #14 and #15?
