Always been overrated. Never been in the top 5 for his chosen position. Unfortunately was a favourite of Chieka and got too many call ups to the Wallabies.
Wallabies in danger of losing Hanigan to ambitious French club just as forward enters his prime
Maybe Horan quoted me. But which part are you referring to
'Like a Scud missile': World Cup reject leads rout, but Reds suffer fresh blow with Petaia's season in jeopardy
Good to see the Reds had a win, although quite clunky, they played till the very end. I think on McDermotts return, Liam Wright should retain the captaincy on his own. He is an inspired leader and one that the rest of the team look up to. I think Captaincy for McDermott is a distraction.
Jordy is no great loss as his inconsistent play is something the team can do without. The same goes for Vanulalu . He constantly goes off his wing and leaves a massive overlap, putting pressure on his teammates to cover.
Also something needs to be done regarding the number of times players were holding the ball in one hand and when knocked or tackled by the opposition loses it forward. This happens at least six times game.
I was also unhappy with a number of poor lineout throws. It is a basic part of the game And yet can destroy advantage the team has built.
Lynagh had a good day. Like Mac Grealy he gives it all and doesn’t stop working.
Well done Reeds.

Sadly, Jordy is overrated. Look is by far a bigger loss. Campbell had a better game

It might be a good thing for the Reds to lose Tate for 3 weeks. Form has been average. McReight in the other hand is a loss. He, Wilson and Wright are huge for the team. Only positive is he is resting. Regardless on the consistency of the judgement…. They were both guilty. Suck it up and use it as motivation in the next 2 games
'Not ideal': Reds star duo cop Super Rugby bans after red cards - but where's the consistency?
Here was I starting to believe in the Reds. But, once again they were poor. Flook was out of the game from the 71st minute with a shoulder injury but played on. The reserve flyhalf was very poor and Jock Campbell looks like he doesn’t want to be playing.
'Brain explosion': Wallaby stars sent off as Queensland left red-faced in Moana Pasifika shocker
Let’s hope any selection of hooper is done so on the basis of his skill and ability. Unlike his last 4 years as a Wallaby where he was in the team because he trained well, had a big heart and motor and he was a favoured son of Chieka. One of the only wise decision of Jones was to exclude him from the RWC squad.
'Incredible' Hoops backed to do better than Boks legend who 'failed abysmally' in sevens switch
April fools surely. Leadership is about integrity and putting the team first ( to name just two essential elements). Warners career lacked both these. If true, very poor decision by Joe.
EXCLUSIVE: Schmidt to appoint David Warner as Wallabies leadership consultant
Poor skills lost it for the Reds. Nasser was good. The Reds need a good 10 and must stop believing Petaia and Vunivalu are saviours. Jock Campbell had a shocker.

Yet to see anything special from this Max. Plenty of things have been said and written, but I’d like to see it on the field. For me the standard is Tim Horan when it comes to young talent. What an incredible 18 year old to make his debut and still to this day be rated the games best 12. of all time.
'Best place for me': Wallaby-in-waiting Jorgensen commits to Aussie rugby in boost ahead of Lions series
All Reds players were off their game tonight. From poor line out coordination to missed tackles, poor passing and dropped balls, the game was a nightmare. They were flat from the kickoff. Little communication in the field. The enthusiasm and speed of the first 4 games wasn’t present. The trip to WA can be energy zapping if not managed. I hope this performance only inspire for the Brumbies game. Vunivalu should sit out the next game. Not sure if Petaia is any better, but we need someone who knows how to play wing in union.
Reds' 'unbelievable, unfathomable' double disaster sums up shocker as Force spring stunning upset
Maybe the Reds should not have read the past weeks press giving great praise to the coach and individuals. They were very poor. The ex-leaguie on the wing was the worse. They were flat from the beginning. I hope they bounce back for next week.
Reds' 'unbelievable, unfathomable' double disaster sums up shocker as Force spring stunning upset
What bone-head comments made by JOC. Joe has plenty of time to select a squad. The Reds are no doubt the top Aussie side, but the wheels can fall off with a few injuries or other teams picking up. There is and should be NO certainty in positions at this early stage. JOC has not been missed on the field
'Talent can be fickle': Schmidt avoids rushing to conclusions as JOC calls for 'Reds-heavy' Wallabies
Those who have followed Australian rugby for decades know, “the Wallabies will only do well if the Queensland team does well”. If the Reds continue in the current success, we could be in for an exciting Wallaby resurgence. It wont happen overnight…but it will start. Kiss and Joe know each other well and I am sure there are the frequent chats on player strengths and weaknesses and game strategies across all franchises. That is, Kiss will be asked his thoughts on other teams and their players. I remember hearing Joe speak a couple of years ago. He said that he gets advice and assistance from those who care…even his wife. Les Kiss cares about the game, the team (squad) and his players.

The 3 loose forwards (as a collective) are the shining light in the Reds. As a group they have out played every team this season. Uru is the 4th loose forward who continues to improve. Vunivalu wants to be a loosie, but not even close..
Flook continues to improve. Not a Wallaby yet.
Kiss is showing us just how good he is.
Maybe the next inline for Wallaby coach
McReight masterclass, Uru statement: Reds smash Rebels in Aussie Super Rugby derby
It’s time to allow players to venture overseas without reducing their opportunity for National selection. Rugby is a world game, so treat it as such.
Having todays top 15-20 rugby players earning good money overseas, will give opportunity to 15-20 local players who wouldn’t otherwise get the opportunity to play super rugby..
The best Wallaby team to be selected regardless where they played their season.
RA reeling and facing a mass exodus of biggest stars - there are three key reasons why they're in peril
There is not one Wallaby certainty in the Reds team. Each one has to prove themselves each game. To do this (and under Kiss) they know they have to work together as one team.
Right now all would not look out of place in a wallaby squad of 30.
It will be interesting what happens when JOC and Jordy returns. Both these guys show that they can be individuals and not team players.

Vunivalu is still in the Reds team.. I’d put Josh Nasser on the wing instead

Take Beale instead …. He’s available

For God sake, who would select Beale in any representative team. He is not good enough (and hasn’t been for a decade) to play for either the Tahs or the wallabies.
Let’s face it, his selection by Cheika was simply a payback for giving him the wallaby coach role. As it was with the selection AAC and to a less extent Hooper.
'I'd love to see him back': Beale set to take first step in rugby comeback, targets milestone event
How could Vunivalu make the top team. Over rated in attack and continuously off his opposite winger.
Liam Wright should be in this 15.
Five things we learned: Why Schmidt is in a better place than Rennie was, how Kiss has transformed Reds
Vanivalu and Uru have the chiefs every opportunity to win. It’s great to see Campbell at 15. Surely Petaia is out for the season. (Excuse the spelling)
