RA want to take over all the teams. Get on board.
Five things: Where DC got it wrong with Tahs, perception and reality for Wallabies hopeful as Test bolter shines
I dunno, the pass to Campbell was really just draw the man and pass. Did his job but not really special. The leap was good though, had forgotten about that.

Agreed, except for the over-priced food and beverages….

Ryan’s try was well taken, I thought he was a bit quiet otherwise, not a lot of opportunities. Agree he was probably next man up.
Pietsch is better than I ever thought he would be when he started. You’re right though, I don’t know if he’s ever going to quite take that next step.

They wouldn’t be paying the exorbitant price though, that would be RA top up. They also don’t have depth at wing with Marky going, Reilly doesn’t look up to it to me, too many mistakes. Who else is there after Pietsch?
I also don’t think their forward pack is that terrible, minus all the injuries. No amount of depth will cover that level of front row injury, Holloway is doing well at lock and they have tried to address help for him with Miles (jury still out). Swinton/Hanigan at 6, Gleeson 8, Gamble 7 – it’s not a bad pack really.

I agree with that. I said elsewhere kudos to the Reds for getting the win when they weren’t at their best, good teams do that.

Don’t think you can blame the Tahs for JS, that was Hamish. Sure the Tahs were happy to take him, but can’t imagine they were the ones doing the recruiting.
Five things: Where DC got it wrong with Tahs, perception and reality for Wallabies hopeful as Test bolter shines
This is true, although Miles is a genuine lock at least.

It would be dangerous to start now.

Yes, right on halfway, padded seats with drink holders. Self-upgrade. Nice to see how the other half live.
I thought Gordon and Amatosero both had very good games, I’d be interested to know who you thought was better in their positions this week. Pietsch is more debatable. I didn’t see the Force game but none of the wingers from the other 3 Australian franchises were real standouts.

Did you watch the game?
Five things: Where DC got it wrong with Tahs, perception and reality for Wallabies hopeful as Test bolter shines
They’ve brought him on slowly. Saturday was his best game, I’d been disappointed with what I’d seen up until then as well. But it’s hard to criticize them for bringing on a young guy slowly when we spend all our time criticizing them for bringing young guys on too quickly….

Yeah Jake had a really good game but you can’t get past the blinkers with some people.
Five things: Where DC got it wrong with Tahs, perception and reality for Wallabies hopeful as Test bolter shines
And that was Hamish getting his jollies anyway.
Five things: Where DC got it wrong with Tahs, perception and reality for Wallabies hopeful as Test bolter shines
He was pretty disappointing at the time, I remember him always being a frustration. Not sure if it was coaching or the change of scenery or just growing up that fixed him.

That better not be it. I’d love my kids to love rugby. Do you think the Tahs ever have an afternoon game that I could take them to, so I’m not trying to drag a 5yo kid home on a train at 11PM? Nope.

We should not pick players just because they play for the waratahs. In fact, we should not pick players just because they play for the waratahs.

Random question, but what do you find is best to use for removing saliva from between the keys on your keyboard?
Five things: Where DC got it wrong with Tahs, perception and reality for Wallabies hopeful as Test bolter shines
I find the roar goes through peaks and troughs of annoyingness. I think it’s peaking right now, the ‘chip on their shoulder’ brigade can’t say anything at all without cursing the tahs under the breath. Hopefully we’ll hit max b1tch & moan soon and start heading back down to some level of coherent discourse.

I always enjoy reading your unbiased opinions. Yes, the Reds won. They were the better team for a solid 15 mins, kudos to them for racking up enough points in that time to get across the line. For the other 65 mins they were well short of their best. That’s ok, saying that is not the equivalent of insulting your mother, you don’t need to take it personally. Every team has games where they are not at their best. It’s good for the reds that they can do that and still get a win.

What has this got to do with the tahs?
Five things: Where DC got it wrong with Tahs, perception and reality for Wallabies hopeful as Test bolter shines
To be fair, look at more than the scoreboard. Surely even you would acknowledge that was a below par performance from the Reds?

No one in Super has the luxury of signing a guy back from France and then sending him to play Shute, it’s just a commercial reality. I don’t think you have anything to back up your ‘nowhere near Super standard’ comment either.

Please don’t introduce evidence to our conversations.

Australian rugby is a mess because Christy didn’t pick any reds in his team of the week?
Seems like an easier fix for our woes than I’d expected. Get on it, Christy!
