Forwards aren’t fit enough if they are getting beaten in set piece, lots of work to be done in that department…

Wallaroos suffer shock loss to USA in massive blow to World Cup plans as set-piece put on roller-skates

Let him go, Tupou is so over-rated it’s not funny, he has literally done nothing since we all saw his highschool highlights reel.
He can’t lift in the lineouts, gets found out at international level with his scrummaging and seagulls on the wing more than the actual wingers..move him on a free up resources for a player who wants to be there for the love of the sport and the jersey he is wearing…

The Wrap: Rugby needs to keep the scrums up and put the ball down

Bobby, I am not really a fan of the Force but here is my take in the issues, the Coach, wont make the hard decisions to drop players, Kyle Godwin is the prime example, he had 4 x tries put through his channel against the Reds, he gets shifted around against other teams and drops off tackles constantly, the choice of the team against the Dura was mind blowing, why, would you pick the old and slow blokes, i.e. Thrush, Kahui, Prior for example against, a team of Fijian’s that a quick, energised and unpredictable and not play Anstee (a ex sevens player), Fines-Leiliawasa, both young quick and can adjust to the play, and then the coach decides to play open running rugby against the Dura….stupid stuff.
Bayley Kunezle is a standout player that is behind a weak pack but he put his hand up against the Dura, missed one tackle but was solid in both defence and attack, in my view he is the answer to the Wallabies future flyhalf issue, I can see Stephen Larkham in him…
Oh and Tim Anstee should be starting open side flanker..

Pffft, you need to go forward first to let the backs run the ball, simple game this rugby….here’s a thought, how about doing a group assessment to identify who can tackle with both shoulders, pass either side, run straight, identify weak points in defence, read the play, adapt to the conditions and pilfer the ball in an effective manner…then find the speedsters on the wing…
