Definitively, missing Rodda, Arnold and/or Skelton, the 4-5 combo is the weakest link.

It's time for the Wallabies to front up against ancient foes, and this is how they should do it

Interestingly enough, in the era of AI, these articles by Data Scientist Guillermo Martinez Arastey
and on Sport Performance Analysis website :
“Impact of Data Analysis And Technology in Rugby Union”
https://www.sportperformanceanalysis.com/article/data-analysis-and-technology-in-rugby-union
And “Performance Indicators in Rugby Union”

A must read.

The only stats I trust when it comes to the upcoming Test series

Break dancing is old, he should take on K-pop BTS.

Will Scott Robertson succeed at the elite international level being himself?

Don’t forget WA, South African and British expats; bring in SA and Argentinian players. Add Twiggy to the equation, he will open his wallet for the cause of rugby, for sure.

Should we give Super Rugby the flick forever?

Respect, the only ones messing around is the parochial kiwi crowd and its continous barrage over RA and/or anything to do with AUS rugby. Who’s going to miss TT more? I wonder. As a bonus, we could have a real Roar dot AU instead the current Roar dot NZ stuff dot.

'NZ have treated us poorly': Why Phil Kearns is backing RA's hard ball, and how rugby 'wins over league every week'

Good article but I don’t agree. RA reasons behind this claim are clear: Firstly, NZR ditching SA and Argentina whereas the tv broadcast coin was split equally between SANZAR partners -and Argentina-. Today, NZR is being paid $91m by Sky; in comparison, RA receives only $29m
Secondly, it appears that ALL the SR chairs are supporting the thoughts of RA. Australian Rugby should moving forward having the prospects of B&I Lions tour and obviously the 2027 World Cup.
And third and most important is the Aussie fan base is depleted having to watch always same scenarios, NZ teams smashing oz and the farcical officials we have to put up with. Go it alone, get a national competition and bring back the local crowds.

Why Australia needs to stay in Super Rugby

Jones playing Cheik ball? Weird, to say the least, I guess is one of the mind games he got ready to face WBs. Paul Cully header on the SMH : “100 kicks in one game-English final shows Wallabies what is coming” “Leicester prevailed 15-12 in a game that showed English rugby’s true DNA – kicking, mauls, pressure, scrums. Don’t be fooled by the presence of Marcus Smith in the England side, they aren’t coming to Australia to throw the ball around.”

Rugby News: Skelton sent off in 132-year first, Cheika backs Petaia as No.15, ABs legends' anger at RA's 'crap' call

Spot on, Jaeger. TT final outcomes are 100% predictable, season after season: kiwi grounds, kiwi team, kiwi referee, so why bother? RA should get on with a national competition, followed by a grand final between AU vs NZ teams.

Should we give Super Rugby the flick forever?

Hopefully they are no bluffing; for the sake of Australian Rugby and to put an end to the TT, ending being there as NZ punching ball. Get real and bring domestic competition plus partners in the game with Japan, Pacifica, SA and Argentina. A lot to learn and share from all of those nations and gain respect, not being limited to play NZ, they are not longer the golden standards in rugby. Little or nothing -other than the dark arts- to learn from NZ rugby.

Are Rugby Australia bluffing?

Where is Wally?

Michael Hooper needs to show some respect
