    Scotland v Australia 12Nov16 Saturday

    There's a secret corner of Australia, where people mutter darkly, and stick pins in Wallaby dolls. The negative here is a real fcuking turn-off.

    November Internationals not involving Australia

    I'd be saying well done to Munster! The MABs are a decent international team.

    France v Australia, Saturday 19 November

    I'd be starting Phipps and Foley. Cooper and Genia, at their best, are our best pairing, but if we're going to play our best team, then it's certainly Phipps and Foley right now. That said, Cooper and Genia haven't had their chance yet this tour. Maybe this is the game to give them that...

    Not sure if serious. Kafe's the best rugby brain in Australia. If you get the chance, go and listen to him speak in person.

    Scotland v Australia 12Nov16 Saturday

    Although to be fair, Kafer's analysis is admirably neutral.

    Scotland v Australia 12Nov16 Saturday

    We always have a 'bad' game. This one we squeaked. No disrespect to the Scots, who were excellent, and really should cut up lots of other teams with that counter-attacking.

    Perhaps five different people than the ones who are making a case for them now.

    Kerevi would have leaped and scored the conversion in the same movement.

    Yeah, a big yellow. The personal vitriol served up to Skelton online is despicable, but that was a stupid yellow, and it deserves dropping for the foreseeable future.

    Scotland v Australia 12Nov16 Saturday

    Perennial argument #7. But I agree. It isn't really anything to do with entrenched combinations, but the timing of play. Genia's more tactical game suits Quade's more architectural approach. Foley needs fast ball delivered in front of him to operate successfully. Neither is "better", but they're...

    I think one take-away from this is that big Tevita must be considered un-droppable for the foreseeable future. Always a handful and a hero try.

    Bloody hell. Wonderful game Scotland.

    Scotland v Australia 12Nov16 Saturday

    Skelton has a power to polarize opinion by his selection, equaled only by Foley, Hooper and Mumm!

    There isn't one of course. Not now that Tom Carter has retired.

    Every internet hard man knows that depression is an attitude problem, fatprop.

    PeterK I think you mistake Cheika's dry style for literalism. His comment about Timani was a compliment, not a get-out.

    Me. England are favourites but 6.05 is wrong odds.

    I meant that literally Dru. Perfection in sports consists of thousands of hours practicing precisely the same thing. Ten thousand hours, if current psychological theory is right, to be world class at something.

    Honestly mate, I thought every third post of yours was recommending Fardy. No criticism there. I'd pick Fardy too! I always took solace in the fact that I could come on here and find Brumby Runner posts extolling Scott's virtues.
