I didn’t realise Folau was 34 years old. He is getting on. How is his form and fitness?

Izzy vs Eddie: Folau set for Twickenham clash with Jones that's sure to have English media frothing

Mean while in Australia they are fighting over Jesus and Gays…

Ma'a Nonu gets roasted for driving to training in his $140K Tesla

Fox Sports is killing rugby growth in Australia because it is not free for all… All rugby should be on Free-To-Air TV.
My Daughter (6 years of age) asks me why I always watch AFL & NRL on the big TV, but Rugby on my laptop. (illegal stream).

How Fox Sports has been cheating itself and rugby fans

There are two kinds of coaches.
1: Coaches that are looking for coaching positions.
2: Coaches that are about to be sacked…

Cheika survives Rugby Australia review - for now

That was great. Had me in Stitches, then as I sipped my cup of ‘reality tea’ the sadness came rushing back in…

The Wrap: Is this D-day for Michael Cheika or same old, same old?

No no no! Keep it just for the Bledisloe Cup games…

Beale wants Indigenous jersey at World Cup

Cheika needs to go. That last Bledisloe ‘dead rubber’ victory in 2017 did more damage than good. Hanson is always willing to mix things up. Cheika is still playing the same game as he did in the 2015 RWC final.
Need some tall timbre in the line outs, so the ‘Pooper’ experiment must end now. Move Reece Hodge to 10 & kicking duties. (Give him some time there to develop before RWC 2019). Move Pocock to 7 & Hooper to the centre channels. Bench Foley and give Maddocks, Arnold & Toomua starting spots.
Robinson should never don a gold jersey ever again especially one with the #1 on the back. Simmons is a light weight. Find a replacement for Folau as he will most likely end up back at the Broncos and they rely on him too much anyway… Get Sean McMahon back asap.
Also, Cheika needs to go.

Seven talking points from Wallabies vs All Blacks Bledisloe 1

No more Fox Sports. Put Rugby back in the Public’s hands and Super Rugby on Free-to -air before they strangle the life out of the beloved game.

A petition to Fox Sports: No more Kearns and Marto

Yeah, However, I am not complaining about the commentary of my adopted country. I live in France now for the past for ten years & I never complain about the Rugby commentary being in French. So, no I am not a Hypocrite.

Found: The Ireland team we expected and the Wallabies team we feared

You can always fly home…?

Found: The Ireland team we expected and the Wallabies team we feared

I felt Paenga-Amosa suffered from first date ‘jitters’. The occasion was not lost on him & he would have been tweaking his line-out deliveries all week in his spare time. I imagine the Aussie line-out will still be a bit shaky but much improved. If he nails his fist throw in, he will be relaxed and maybe just maybe Joe Schmidt’s plans might start to evaporate rather quickly. We’ll see soon I guess. Furthermore, Surely the wet weather will aid & not hinder Pocock and Hooper for turn overs?

Sexton not the biggest worry for Wallabies

I was thinking the same thing, Eddie rattled on about bloody “Body Line” all week, & I kept on saying to myself ‘Chieka has the perfect bunch of guys for instituting that style of game’. I agree with you too, bring in Taqele Naiyaravoro for Horne’s next week match concussion or injury… He will run Riot!

Roar Forum: What changes should the Wallabies make for the second Test?

This piece was written with such detail and confidence, I wonder if Connor Bennett owns a DMC Delorean & a copy of Biff’s Sports Almanac?

The Wallabies will win the World Cup
