And I have to disagree on the coaching. The team is going backwards with the same players. That has to go at the feet of the coach.

Seriously, what is the Wallabies' problem?

Genia spits the dummy most matches. One more isn’t going to hurt.

Seriously, what is the Wallabies' problem?

The biggest question for me is why they changed tactics at half time. 7 points wasn’t a big enough lead to switch to a strategy of kicking it down the other end of the field all the time. Poor tactics by someone.

Five things we learnt from England v Australia

Pointless article. Removing the exciting bits leaves a boring game. This is true of any sport.

Also the author can’t have watched any of TRC this year. All the games bar the rain affected one had a lot more than 24 points scored.

Rugby's penalty systems needs to be revised

Not Davies. He’s a speed bump.

Joe Tomane, Chris Feauai-Sautia ruled out of Saturday’s third Bledisloe Test

Goodness, what a lot of tahs there are.

Horwill too.

Who would make the team of the Rugby Championship?

They may not have done as much for development, but they pay a hell of a lot more. The way to get better PI National teams is to get them better access to their best players. If a Super Rugby team or two does that, then that’s good for their national squads. If the best players still go to Europe and it’s a bunch of oldies playing super rugby, then I’m not so sure.

NZ coaches want Pacific Super Rugby team

I think you missed when JOC referred to his “rugby brand”.

They beat the Wallabies twice. Maybe you’re right, that isn’t that special.

What’s more important – a Test or a tournament?

If that’s the beat he can do, he isn’t a great defender. You’ll also note that he didn’t actually tackle ranger, he just knocked him over.

Wallabies must starve Steyn of possession

Giteau was best outside Larkham, just like every other back of his era. Not worth retaining.

Debugging the Robbie Deans myth

Steady on.. We’ve had the analysis articles on Sunday, now we’re getting the conversation starters to fill in until something Actually Happens. Somewhere around Wednesday night/Thursday we’ll probably get a slew of “This is the team I would pick” fantasy team articles and “outrageous quotes from hasbeens”, and Friday will be reaction to the Rugby HQ and/or actual team selections.

Do Australian rugby fans really deserve any better?

Or possibly a team that couldn’t set itself fast enough to deal with quick ball.

Wallabies show glimpses but have a long way to go

Check the advantage line stats.

The kind of frailty that leaks no tries in general play. The defense was good, the gain line was not breached often. You don’t win games on a small number of line breaks, you win it on consistent runs over the gain line.

Thank god that Ewen knows how to beat nz teams.

EMs talking about beating the ABs in line breaks. So what? Did he notice that the WBs attack couldn’t dent the line?

Halfbacks need to feed straight, poor from Both sides.

Can we just agree that the Wallabies forwards aren’t up to it?

Nice.

All Blacks vulnerable: optimism or realism?

Most Australian teams struggle in the wet. Have done as long as I can remember.

Smokescreen.

Matt Toomua to start ahead of Quade Cooper?
