Hi Hunter. I know you’re busy training but just a quick word before the game. By the way, how’s the cold wet English weather…
Roarers. If you’re like me, there are times, especially after another Bledisloe loss or unconvincing win against Japan, when you think: “If only I…
Hi Jordan Petaia, is it all right if I call you Jordie even though we haven’t met? Most others seem to, even Dave Rennie…
Harry.. thanks so much..it means a lot..????????
If I was Wallabies coach for three weeks...
Yes Buk..so much skill happens in the brains neurology before it appears in the limbs as actions.
Appreciate your reply mate????
If I was Wallabies coach for three weeks...
Yes Puff, absolutely agree about kicks, especially high ones..lots of traffic to negotiate..
Refs, are they a necessary part of the rugby landscape that like police are easy to hate?
Ah scrums…sigh..what saddens my heart about the game.. over policed?
Thanks for the effort you put in your reply 👍

Aiden.. you’re definitely coach and foreman material.
Get out the white overalls and.get coaching
You’re Rugby brain is needed 👍

Thanks WB..if Dave and the team are as good as building players up as you are with Roarers then we’re.in good hands.. 👍
If I was Wallabies coach for three weeks...
Yes Webster…like golf, tennis and so many other things, confidence does wonders for performance..like Seasol for sports people.. 😂
If I was Wallabies coach for three weeks...
Yes WAE..where is the Ardie Savia and Marika like intensity and leg drive..Lachie Swinton has had to tone his ‘ intensity’ down for better or worse 😔
If I was Wallabies coach for three weeks...
So you can kick the can man.. you’re hired 😊

A great list of workons there Ben.. you’ve definitely covered a lot of bases there..perhaps we could b tandem coaching consultants ????

Hi Leroy
Yes going for 20 plus phases used to be the goal didn’t it..
Seems that is much rarer these days, even very close to the line.. hadn’t realised that till you mentioned it 👍

More speed and less white powder heh 😛 can only admire how well the kiwis do the basics and the the not so basics 👍

Thanks mate..give the under 7s all you’ve got 😁
If I was Wallabies coach for three weeks...
Yes American football and army and navy seals training are a great place to find extreme motivational tools.
Your viewpoints and support are greatly appreciated.

Mzilikazi.. responses like yours are what makes it worth while taking the time to write an article for the roar… Much appreciated rugby ‘brother in arms’.. 👍

Oh Phil you sweet talker.. that’s very kind.. thanks for that 👍 👍

Does it matter who started it..sounds like kids at school..if you really wanted to you could have stopped anytime..couldn’t you? Or could you?
Are the Wallabies on the road to their back-row nirvana?
Don’t tell Paddy that about Hoops..he won’t have it.. 😂
couldn’t resist a dig there Paddy..are you OK with that?
Are the Wallabies on the road to their back-row nirvana?
Oh yee of little faith Zulu..I certainly hope you don’t earn your living as a clairvoyant because I really do want you to be wrong and your pessimism unwarranted.. 😂
As Brett Mackay said in “Why the long faces..”, a team is a work in progress along a trajectory with many movable parts. Just look at what happened to Eddie Jones squad this week..but I agree, if we try and play from the same Cooper/Kerevi song sheet we could have a hard time 😢
Are the Wallabies on the road to their back-row nirvana?
Doesn’t Matt Philip get penalised a lot at the lineout maul and ruck..also from what I see he’s often standing still when he takes the ball and lacks some leg drive..good hands though..am I missing something Peter?
Are the Wallabies on the road to their back-row nirvana?
I agree Peter and I hope they develop more..liked the move with TT scoring against Japan..Would like to see him used more as a runner or decoy in 5 metre channel off the front of the lineout.
Are the Wallabies on the road to their back-row nirvana?
Yes, the game is won between the ears before it’s won outside of them. 😂
Are the Wallabies on the road to their back-row nirvana?
He certainly has secured his lineout ball well at No 2.
Are the Wallabies on the road to their back-row nirvana?
Thanks for that Tim as the Camo/ Kirwan train was taking a very
distracting sidetrack from the main article.
An open letter to Jordan Petaia: Forget about being the 'next big thing' and enjoy the ride
Hi Coker
Been reading the Roar Gurus and most of them say that Reece Hodge is solid, versatile, and brings a steadiness we’ve been missing with Noah. Perhaps if he had kicked that goal in last years Bled he would have been a hero by now.
But he seems to be much maligned, much as Hooper was last year, copping more crap on here than Kanye west in a talent show.
Been watching the video on here and hodgey didn’t drop that last pass, it was knocked out. however the 78th minute bomb I agree was weird shit..but then Banks and Koriebete each did a lame kick straight back to the Boks as well…perhaps some balance needed, and playing the ball, not the man??
The curse of the Wallabies’ rebuild is finally lifted
Greg
Must have been rough watching Wallabies in NZ..get that..my ex is Kiwi.. appreciate the support..we are improving that’s for sure ????????
