Waratahs A play Fiji A on 1 March at SFS as a curtain raiser to Tahs v Rebels. About 5pm ko I think.
Sounds like a good exuse to leave work early.

Slightly off topic but is there still visa "difficulties" for Fiji citizens entering Australia due to our Government disapproval of the Bainimarama Regime?
Beautiful country; wonderful, friendly and welcoming rugby loving people.

I'm not sure, but I'd be assuming that a Fiji A side playing in a game like this will all be people living in Sydney.

An Aussie based expat Fiji A team would still be a pretty formidable opponent for the Tah's As.
It is unfortunate that many of Fiji's best seem to be overseas, and therefore unavailable for development games such as these, in either Euro rugby or on national service in the Middle East with their Army.

those who were linked to the military regime would have sanctions against travel to Australia, but players and coaches who don't are allowed to travel.
Hey by the way when a rower and a shot putter come across to Super Rugby how come we don't bag rowers and shotputters...
The guy is 6'5 weighs around 100kg and is incredibly fast and agile. As far as physical specimens go, he'd have to be close to the best natural athlete in Australian rugby.

I dont think anyone is questioning the guys physical attributes, he is genetically blessed...
Its the technical understanding of the game which is the issue and where a lot of people hold doubts, especially at test level where one small indiscretion like not rolling away from the ball and been yellow carded will cost the team the game.

So why are Dwyer & Ella calling for Horne's immediate axing?
I have little time for Horne but this guys is a completely unknown quantity - just think of all the blokes with natural ability who dont make it!!
Calls to put Folau at 13 are just insane. 13 is a complex position, not least of all defensively, and he just does not have the time and likely experience to be playing 13 properly with regularity. Wing, or 15 at a pinch, I think. Now if he decides to stay more than 1 year and looks any good, it might be another story.
Horne needs to really step up if he wants 13 for the Tahs. It probably should be AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper).

The calls from Dwyer and co haven't been for Folau to play 13.
They've been saying that Horne is the obvious player to miss out on a starting spot which puts AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) at 13 and Folau at fullback.

Drop Horne. Makes sense. One has to wonder why he was a Wallaby last year.
