After a failed rugby career & middling corporate career I have decided I want to be a farmer & spend my days mucking about with cows. Love rugby & the greats of 84, 91 & 99 are among my fondest memories.

Skelton not unlucky, is not performing well enough. has struggled to be in 1st 15 at NSW. yes he’s big but so is a b-double but by no means is it dynamic & Skillful.

McCalman is true grit & gives 100% every game but if you look at the bench there is x factor in McMahon as backrow reserve.

Ben McCalman and Will Skelton unlucky to miss Wallaby selection

Great Summary particularly the breakdown analysis.

What about Liam Gill? A Gill – Pocock 7 & 8 would awesome. 6 must be Fardy.

Was Bob Dwyer right about Michael Hooper?

TheFrench you have inspired me during this long week of wait for what I agree will be one of the greatest rugby contests of this generation.

I long for the days of the old when rugby was at the forefront of the Australian consciousness when men of passion & skill stood tall. This WC has been an awakening, regardless of outcome rugby is better for it & men like Moore, Pocock, Fardy et al will relentlessly pursue success the Australian way this weekend.

Congrats to you my old French friend & to the Wallabies as this WC you have united a long divided rugby community.

SPIRO: Game on! Wallabies or All Blacks to take permanent possession of 'Bill'

correction -without him….

Five talking points from the Wallabies' win over Scotland

Pocock – we cannot go all the way with him. We lost the breakdown.

There is a difference between driving a square scrum to dominance from the start of a game,. Something Skelton has failed to assist with to date. He’s not a starter. Can’t jump, can’t scrumage & is slow around the ground.

Wallaby scrum shunts them towards greatness

Surprise Surprise a balanced scrummaging 2nd row were able to sure up a solid front row. Get Simmons back & have the lineout in order & we will be on our way….

I feel for James Slipper hes had to carry (literally) Skelton as his back stop….

You wait til the ABC & Fairfax get a hold of this….

Satire is always risky & I think Rath you have just rolled the dice!

RATHBONE: Pocock should shut up and play

Could not agree more. The removal of McKay was wrong. The continued role of Andrew Blades is questionable considering the on-going technical & physical flaws in the teams forward play. The fact we can have a 135kg lock come on from the bench & the scrum goes backwards says a lot about the technical standards at the wallabies.

The perception of conflict can only continue with the dual Waratahs wallabies role. This needs resolution if only to keep the fan wars at bay. As a Victorian looking in at it the qld NSW divide is very evident & it won’t be long before this becomes an issue for the players, the minute a controversial selection falls inevitably to a Tah all hell will break loose. Let’s not start on the Beale garbage.

2 steps to a clean slate 1. No more Tahs for chieka, 2. A new forwards coach that has a grasp of set play technique.

No more Cheika's way or the highway
