2013 EOYT

[swingpass]

here is a left field suggestion

Toby Smith at LH
and leave Slipper and Kepu at TH all year, S15 and test matches

No room for Hooper??? Only player who has constantly put in all game every game.

Despite Hooper winning the JEM, I'd always pick Pocock over Hooper at 7. The guy is a monster at the breakdown and he has that wonderful ability to pinch something from nothing (without getting busted by the ref).

Does Toby Smith need to qualify, or is he ready to go. Dunno if he's been picked in any NZ rep teams...

Toby Smith?

Eh?

Toby Smith is new LHP signing for the rebels. Starting LHP for the chiefs this year.

If his hearts in it I can see this bloke being a Wallaby starter. Try catch some of his games for waikato on youtube. Pretty handy player.

We're talking about this years EOYT right?

Australian born, automatic qualifier so don't have to wait around.

 

[Slim 293]

I'm confused.........

Why is Toby Smith's name being brought up?

Was there a fast food restaurant fire that killed all our current prop stocks?

Watched the EOYT game vs Italy from last year (again) that was replayed on One today. We didn't deserve to win that game, Italy missed a kick from in front with 1 minute to go to tie the game.

Hope we don't see a repeat of our performance - we had zero structure in attack, showed no patience and took the wrong option on a lot of occasions. Our accuracy at the breakdown also left a lot to be desired.

We shouldn't have beaten Wales either but it happened. Sometimes you do almost everything wrong and still win the game.

I'm really looking forward to the tour. I might even get up and watch the games live. Been a while since I've been that motivated for a tour.

Pretty much upset by Meyer keep on picking old age home chicken runners like Mossie and Bakkies. Louis Schreuder what a shock.

 

[PaarlBok]

Suppose his run on pick against Wales :
Willie, Habs, Mossie, JdV, JPP, Steyn, FdP, Duanne, Flo, Alberts, Bakkies, Etsebeth, JdP, Battleship, Beast.

 

[Gekko]

Even McKenzie's Wallaby side to crush England at Twickenham will be:

Robinson Moore Palmer
Horwill Simmons
Mowen Gill Pocock
Genia Cooper
Lealifano Tapuai
Speight Folau
Mogg

Bench
Slipper Holmes Hanson
Pyle Hooper
White To'omua Tomane

You're kidding aren't you?
England will make mince meat of the Wannabe's, and I am an Australian, although not a patriotic one because I refuse to support the Wallabies for a bunch of reasons.
England by 13+

Funny stuff

I'm pretty sure that Bakkies was benched by his club team recently as his form was way off. Interesting that he's been selected, the domestic locks were probably more deserving.

 

[Bairdy]

Ah, it's been a while since I've seen an absurd post from Gekko.

 

[ChargerWA]

Gecko, before making stupid inaccurate statements about the skill and style of SA rugby perhaps go back and watch what the Boks did to The Wallabies last time we played. Oh that's right, you don't support Australia so you won't have seen it. Credibility goes splech.
