From the current squad of 30 players heading to the World Cup, what was, in your opinion, their best test for Australia during their Wallaby career? This is for a bit of fun and to reflect on the players that we hope will bring back Bill! The idea is to really narrow it down and get a...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Quade Cooper is the most important player in Australian Rugby. And I'm not using hyperbole. If he goes down injured, the Wallabies can albeit kiss any hope of winning the World Cup (or even making it past the Quarter Finals goodbye). Today it was...

What the heck, there is no more rugby to watch tonight, and I didn't even get to watch the first and only game. What a boring Friday night!

After developing some love for Pocock and Sonny Bill today because they are without doubt two of the most physically fit and imposing players in world rugby, it got me thinking what a team full of this player type would look like. Obviously players like James O'Connor or Ben Robinson don't...

I reckon the Tri-Nations has got to be the hardest sporting competition in the world. Mentally, physically and emotionally. Some of you might already know this, but I would like to compare it to other Australian football competitions. With the AFL Grand Final being replayed this weekend...

Should be pretty straight forward tonight.

Out for the rest of the 2010 season with major surgery to his shoulder again.

I'm not sure if a thread like this has been started before; in any case I couldn't find it. I also feel like posting something positive :) Post here if you see a Wallaby or well known Super 14 player anywhere interesting in public, or manage to have a chat with them and can shed any insight...

You decide!

Please post your votes for the best team in the best game of the 2010 Super 14 season.

One of the best games I have ever been to. As a QLD supporter this game is something that fans from other supporters can't really understand. To beat the top team in the comp at the business end of the season is just amazing. Special atmosphere at the ground. ANYWAY This thread is to let out...

They can't do it. I can't see the Brumbies winning this competition after being talked up so much by their fans and the media. Making the top 4 is also going to be a bit of a stretch, and lack of BPs will hurt. Their 2 most experienced players - Smith and Mortlock - haven't been in the best of...

Anyone see the finish to this game? DRAW Kaplan shouldn't have awarded that try, 0 evidence. And bloody Carter missed the shot, thanks for stuffing up my tips. Oh well at least nobody would have tipped a draw.

I thought it might be interesting to see who would make your form team of the Super 14 so far, including players from all teams. 1. Alexander 2. Polatu-Nau 3. Baxter 4. Matfield 5. Sharpe 6. Elsom 7. Hodgson 8. Spies 9. Genia 10. Steyn 11. Mitchell 12. Fainga'a 13. Ranger 14. Guildford 15. Dagg...

Go go go

Anyone see his try for Wests this arvo? It was about a 60m run and he showed some pace that I didn't think he had anymore. I still think it's a shame that he isn't playing rugby in the Super 14 anymore, or for the Wallabies. I would definitely pick him on one of the wings along with Mitchell...

Should be interesting this week who will command the 9 and 10 jumpers with Genia and Quade on the bye. Ditto with outside centre re: Digby I didn't watch much of the Brumbies match so can't really comment there. But from the Force/Tahs game tonight these guys are stood out. 1. 2. TPN 3. Kepu/...

With the four Australian teams all back on the paddock this weekend, who stood out for you? With 3/4 Australian teams winning it's actually quite hard to single some of the players out. 1. 2. TPN 3. 4. 5. Humphries 6. Higginbotham 7. 8. Palu 9. Genia 10. Cooper 11. Mitchell 12. A. Fainga'a...

Cannot wait for Noddy to start the thread, so post your votes please.

Watched the Force v Brumbies game tonight and was impressed with the composure O'Connor shows, not only for a 19 year old, but as the "star" player of the entire team. Because of injuries and player departures, he is now the single most important player in the Force backline, and burdens most of...
