An avid sports fan... but a diehard Rugby supporter. Especially the Wallaby & Tahs.

Thanks ‘Irish’… and wow, them some apples!

I think the only things forgotten were Kangaroos and Holden cars? 😂

Thanks Ken… yeah watched the game with great interest. Gotta say the conditions were atrocious. Sunshine Coast be buggered!

Disappointing end to the game… but they rolled da dice eh. Agree with your thoughts on the players you’ve highlighted but would add also the replacement prop that came on in the second half… Thor 2?? 😛

Mario Milano… and Killer Karl Kox 😊

Let alone 8 dwarfs in a caged ring at the old Sydney Stadium circa 69-71?? 😱

Ironic eh… not! 😔

Hey, only one more sleep to possible squeaky bottom time… but don’t forget our U20s tonight v Bargies. No doubt a worthy past-the-time candidate?! 😊

Well, if you put like that… then I’m gonna chuck a dwarf on the fire tonight just for old times sake. Bonding sake. Arm in arm with brothers north of the border type sake. 😛

C’mon Aussie!

Thanks Mick… enjoy this review of the current state of play both England and the Wallaby find themselves in prior to this first test in Perth.

I’m always wary of that little grinning assassin Eddie… and as he’s behind the eight ball presently, even more so!

I’m sure England are here to play… especially as dwarf throwing has now been banned in pubs. But, be that as it may, the Wallaby, I’m positive, will also understand the gravity of this series with a RWC looming next year in France. Let alone the fact it’s a series against our olde enemy… those poncy patronising Poms ffs!

Oh… and welcome to da ROAR, Mick. 👍 🏉 😊

I only got to watch the second half… and thought how did the MABs score so many points in the first? 😱

The Irish were all business in the second… aggressive, direct and definitely not happy (obviously) with their performance in the first half. Crossed the line several times and only got one try as reward. Weirdest bit was near the end where the MABs wanted to kick a penalty in front… and missed. Then a dropkick later… and missed also!

Thanks Bertmon… and sundry others 👍

SA 3-0

ABs 3-0

Wallaby… geez, wanna say 3-0 but I’m really nervous about this. Suffice to say, to avert groundhog day a la 2016 our tight five need to be mongrel go forward for the full eighty. And discipline will need to be paramount also.

C’arn da Wallaby… don’t care how you do it, just win ffs!

PS Good luck to all combatants, on and off the field, as we all love this time of year 👍 🏉 😊

Thanks buddy… I’m with you (except for the odd punt) as I feel this series could go either way. Hence, good luck to your mob… likewise to my mob. And let’s both hope it’s a cracker! 👍 🏉 😊

It's time for the Wallabies to front up against ancient foes, and this is how they should do it

Thanks Bodger for the betting intel… reckon Wallaby favouritism is only due to home ground advantage?! Which means that if the ‘smart money’ is presently as is we’re all in for a tight Test series. Obviously we will all be smarter for the fact after this w’end. 😊
