David! What a rare occasion, you can’t blame Michael Hooper for something! But it is not surprising you fill your article with rubbish. A rare circumstance that Folua’a skills were caught lacking? I think not. Israel Folua is a great runner with the ball, but once it comes fundamentals like passing or kicking he is incompetent. Not just that but David Pocock was nowhere near as effective without MH and the same with the forward pack. Last nights game proved Pooper is a good combination and it is not to blame for the line out woes.

Fionn,
I agree but Pooper did not play in 2017 as Pocock had his sabattical

Rugby Australia, you can't be serious?

Michael Hooper and David Pocock are both easily top 5 flankers in the world. You question Hoopers leadership yet he revived Tolu Latu’s career and inspires his team every time he plays let alone captains.
You question Hoopers attacking and defending, yet he is one of the most dangerous players in both categories in World Rugby.
Poor article imo, sounds attention seeking and I can guarantee if RA let Hooper go, this articles title would be “Seriously Rugby Australia, another Australian great overseas”.
