Never played rugby but talk a good game.

I would put him 3rd and apparently so does Rennie. And in a situation where there could be difficulties getting replacements because of injury it is nonsensical not to pick your best players. Cheers
WALLABIES SQUAD: Skelton returns, Perese gets another shot, Noah left behind
He has Auto Apnia Syndrome

The Reds players are bloody good & with a full pre-season training together they will be even better. Rennie has given them the spur to make a compelling case for selection.

Perese and Gordon missed a lot of the season through injury and when they did play, they played well. I’d trust Rennie and his coaching team on this as they’ve done well so far. Cheers

Don’t think a lot’s wrong, more maturity in the body, some work-ons. Next international season they will be pushing the incumbents real hard. For example Hooper is real good this year, next season McReight may be pushing him all the way. The good thing is now young blokes are going to be given time to mature rather than put in before they are ready.

Well, that was a pleasant surprise from the Boks. That is what I used to like (before this year) about them. Let’s hope this is the template they work off from now on. Cheers
Belief, brutal strength, bloody-mindedness: The Boks are bloody back, baby!
I suppose Rennie and co. will be able to determine if that is true or not. They seem to have got it right so far. Cheers
'They're full of emotion': Everything Hoops said about fiery Argies, Skelton link, Quade's impact
Great article as usual mate, always enjoy them. With his height and size Skelton could lift a smaller player quite high. That may not be quite the same as Tupou lifting a lock but I’m struggling to understand the difference. Having a good jumper at 6 and you would have the best of both worlds. But and I’m not trying to be a smart alec my rugby IQ is pretty low. Cheers
Coach’s Corner Issue 28: Can the Wallabies get even bigger?
So with the moniker of Madkiwi you could not merely call yourself Tasmanian or Taswegian but rather a Tasmaniac. Lol cheers
Greg Holmes, 38, becomes Australian rugby's answer to Steven Bradbury, and our oldest ever pro Wallaby
Nice story. Thankyou

A resident of Tassie as well?

Great read mate, thankyou.
Will there be two sets of slippers under the table at number 10?
He first played super rugby at 17, imo before his body was ready, regardless of size and ability. The fella lost his idol (father) last year and he played thru that. Honestly, I like the way Rennie is being very slow with him. His time will come. Cheers
Jordan Petaia's quest to become a proper utility player
It does take a while, Mounga has been around a while now. With QC and JOC around for the foreseeable future the young blokes can be given time.
Three more overseas players set to join Wallabies on spring tour as Giteau Law sidestepped
Lol, I think it’s a stretch saying Aus are number 3 as well and if somehow we ended up as 2 that would be just plain silly. Cheers mate
Are the Wallabies really good enough for third in the world?
It is irrelevant at this point in time. What is certain, SA aren’t playing like no. 2. Cheers

Great article mate, lol ‘Lost In Space’ been saving that one up for a while. Loved the reference. Cheers
The Wrap: Wallabies rocket ahead while the Springboks are lost in space
Yeh not to many, enough to bring experience and whoever it is they will likely be in the 23. Too many and it sends the wrong to the players who stay at home. Cheers
MATCH REPORT: 'Box office' Thor hammers South Africa as Wallabies charge to famous victory
5 or 6 into the squad from O/S would be enough I feel.

What you are saying is that in that situation there are just a bunch of guys off-side. Essentially the same situation if the defenders never engaged in the beginning.
Use it? Lose it! A simple way to fix rugby's much-maligned maul
I think in the case of the maul at the moment that it is weighted too much in favour of the attacking team. I think if we got folk like Skelton etc in we would be hard to stop as well. Defending side needs an option or two extra etc because the way things stand I think think the balance is a bit wrong. Cheers

Some pertinent points there mate, no doubt SA are a strong side and will be favourites next game. But our team played well nonetheless. They are a work in progress and will have benefited from the win. I hope SA bring their best game and that our blokes rise to the challenge which is as it should be. Cheers
Rugby Championship turnaround: What a difference a Quade makes
Not for the defending team. Mate, I quite like the maul as it rewards dominant fowards. But I think that adjustments need to be made, probably not major otherwise the integrity of it is lost. Cheers
Use it? Lose it! A simple way to fix rugby's much-maligned maul
Mate I was reading some British commentary yesterday and they were making the same criticisms of the maul. It has problems, that is obvious and yes the Saffas ate good at it. But if the maul has some rule changes to make it fairer the Saffas will adapt and do well. Nobody will lose out. Other areas of the game are a pretty good contest and the maul should slso be one where there is a fair contest for the ball. Cheers mate

The man wants to turn public opinion against the judiciary and make himself out to be the victim, hide the fact that he acted like a tool and cruelly attacked a referee. Nuh, this is not a circus. Rub him out. There may need to be some changes, but not at the time determined by the waterboy.
