Wallabies name squad for Spring Tour

why do you call anyone a lefty if you don’t agree with them? It’s odd. Are you a lefty?

Five talking points from Barbarians vs Wallabies

Mate, Agree, if any fan is in doubt of what a wrecker and trasher Jones is look at this..

Jones is the greatest sore loser the world has ever seen. His behaviour is sociopathic. Has anyone ever heard any coach trash the game more than this. He has disgraced the Barbarian brand and those poor players who he has dragged down to his level of bile.

Five talking points from Barbarians vs Wallabies

The game was a farce from every perspective. We finally put together a team capable of beating the ABs and hopefully England, then we play a f…ing exhibition match against a loud-mouth trash-mouth and lose 2 of our best forwards for the tour. It’s unbelievable and gutting.

Wallaby Dempsey ruled out of northern tour

No problem. Seperate points RB. Jones is trashing everybody except his “boys” on the park, cause that’s what he does, trash people. He will now spew hate towards the ARU every chance he gets, you’ll see, cause that’s how he operates. He’s already doing it. Got it wrong yesterday putting the boot into them for not arranging a support game when it was not their game. I am angry at the ARU for agreeing to an injury-fest 1 week before EOTY. Palu was looking to break players in half…in an exhibition match?

That pass made that try, no question. It was a try-making pass under huge pressure.

Based on what Einstein?

Their figures are worse, so based on what?

In tests, Beale’s stats are worse than Foley’s

Rebellion your posts inspire me. but you cant spell. You, Fionn, Marto …it’s like A Marx Bros movie. Marto is definitely Harpo. Fionn is definitely Groucho, You must be the ugly one. You voted No didn’t you?

Forget about the World Cup, enjoy this win for what it is

Foley’s got the best stats of any SH kicker coming into this year. Dont believe Fionn’s misinformation.

wrong again

Charlie Turner, Fionn is not “absolutely correct”. The data you linked shows only 6 Nations stats. It’s completely useless to demonstrate Foley’s kicking stats. Nice try though.

In fact if you or Fionn had bothered to look for useable stats you would have seen categorically that Foley compares well in the goal kicking comparison

better than:
Cruden
Sopoaga
Barrett
Mo’unga
Cooper (by a mile)

on par with

Lambie
Jantjes

and B Barrett is the worst goal kicker according to this
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11736133

But don’t let that stop you Fionn. Keep spewing the misinformation ‘bro.

Your comment “Foley is not a good enough goal kicker” looks foolish and ill-informed, or is it just bias. And stop mis-quoting Nick Bishop. He has never called Foley’s goal kicking as “barely average”

you back a good 10 and foley is world class. maybe hodge will convert, but you dont whiteant your ten pk

Wallabies win! Australia beat the All Blacks 23-18 in Bledisloe 3

Perfection? I’d be happy with composed and competitive. Injuries have forced some changes for Bled 3, but I think we will see the benefit of further time together for this side. A couple of bench picks puzzle me, but I think the team will deliver a close result. Even without BB, I see this AB team as a very good cohesive unit with weapons everywhere. Cover defence, as you have said Scott, is the key against the AB counter attack.

Should the Wallabies be chasing perfection?

bums on seats on game day, fan loyalty and belief in the national team, a sense that those at the top appreciate the fans, inclusion of young people and women as players and fans, community standards modelled by those in charge…..winning is down the list but still very imprtant

TELL US: What's the most important indicator of success for a sport?

It is almost embarrassing, as a rugby fan in 2017, that the ARU have “dragged” out this misogynistic, bigoted old fool as a curiosity. His comments about women, public joking or worse (eg drown Gillard at sea, lynch Clover Moore, women are “wrecking the joint”) suggest a hater of women, and he should be nowhere near a game which is starting to attract many young women to play and watch. Further Jones’ racist rants over the years (almost daily sometimes) disclose him as a racist and he should be left out of any ARU endevour in a game which multi-cultural players and fans enjoy. This man’s values and behaviour are not what the ARU should be exposing. Granting him the public stage at a high level by the ARU is a mistake.
