Welcome back Tony, and good post. When you look at what happened to Reynolds it is real hard to see sense in the Wighton deal.

Letting Reynolds leave for Brisbane should always be remembered as Solly’s folly

I’m excited to see Bell fit and playing well. His scrum work against Atoini was exceptional. Bell is going to be one of the best LHP in the world. Hahahaha I would like to see him head to head with Malherbe now.

'If I was on steroids for 10 years, I wouldn't look like him': The Wallabies props who can turn RWC on head

Fair play to the Bokke, they took the risk and got the reward.

'Seriously': Ex-Scotland coach calls on World Rugby to 'act' on Springboks after 'abusing bench' against All Blacks

I worried about goal kicking with Gordon being the only option. I am not being critical of him but the kicking yips have got to be affecting his overall confidence. Am really happy to see Bell and Tupou playing well. Drew Mitchell has commented that we might see some squad changes ….. Swinton in for Kemeny would improve the lineout options.

Studs and duds: Eddie's 'wrongheaded' selections, Carter '100 percent a concern', 'weapon' fires at last

Yeah good summation Highlander but one thing you cannot ignore is that the Boks totally dominated the set piece and breakdown, plus their rush defence. The ABs just had no time nor space with the ball. Make no mistake this Boks performance will make every nation sit up and take notice …. especially Ireland.

ANALYSIS: 'Time to make the tough call' - South Africa raised the stakes, and the All Blacks folded

Well that laid down a marker …. Boks now favourites with France? And Ireland in the mix.

'It stings, it hurts ... we got exposed': All Blacks alarm bells ringing after Springboks dish out worst EVER defeat

or M Hooper

Wallabies CONFIRMED: Eddie makes four changes in final pre-World Cup hit out, Suli and Foketi named

and Michael Hooper

Wallabies CONFIRMED: Eddie makes four changes in final pre-World Cup hit out, Suli and Foketi named

Yeah but Kemeny is unlikely to play a game whereas Hooper is very likely fit for most of the pool games and whatever comes after ….. therefore Hooper is a far better option

RWC News: ABs name strong team for Boks clash, Vunipola banned, journo rings alarm bells over key Wallabies

Yeah good article. I reckon the Sea Eagles are the biggest losers with Schuster. Everyone can see that he is simply not fit and obviously does not do the work required. Yeah he might have talent, but without hard work and desire that means very little. Problem for Manly is that even if they chip in $300K that still leaves $500K for another club to pay for a very problematic player. Schuster could struggle to find another club.

Bang for your buck: Spending 'overs' on talent is simply bad NRL business

Obviously there is something about Harry’s play or character that the coaches do not like as there are now quite a few who do not select him. Probably us worker bees will probably never know the real reasons why.

'It's still a gold jersey': Swinton out to impress as key to Aus A success against Wallabies RWC pool rivals revealed

Yeah and kicking a great servant of the game and Wallabies in the teeth.

RWC News: ABs name strong team for Boks clash, Vunipola banned, journo rings alarm bells over key Wallabies

Ok so both Kemeny and M Hooper are injured. Kemeny still at least 1 week out and Hooper 2 weeks out. So tell me again how is Michael Hooper not in France and in the squad?

To me Mitchell does not have the workrate to deserve his high salary. He looks perennialy unfit with a bit of a spare tyre. The coach needs to drive him hard. Either he hits the standards or he is in reserve grade.

Latrell's career may have already peaked unless he can eradicate momentary lapses of discipline

Vunivalu is maligned by us fans cos he ain’t much good. Simple as that. I just hope he does not cost us a crucial win. I will NEVER agree with his selection in this RWC squad.

Doubts of a Wallaby: The maligned cross-code star who fought through tears to make Eddie's RWC campaign

Yeah as defence coach …. and how did that pan out?

RWC News: Eddie's surprise new Wallabies coach revealed, fresh scare for ABs, Richie fumes at 'slap in the face'

And exactly what is in Ryles resume as a Rugby Union attack coach?? This is a BS appointment EJ and is a slap in the face to all those rugby coaches out there. Sorry but I am totally done with EJ’s BS…. bugger me still 5 years to go

Who ???

Exclusive: 'We'll improve': Eddie's parting shot at Wallabies assistant after sensationally quitting RWC campaign

If I was a good young NRL player who was starring every game and the Tigers offered me a $2M per season contract I would say ‘yeah … nah’. There is simply not enough money to make me walk into that club.

Tigers constantly chasing own tail - Fast-tracking Benji era makes sense but chaotic club still needs to get house in order

Hmmmm was wondering who would be the first assistant to depart. Will he be replaced? And by whom?

Exclusive: 'We'll improve': Eddie's parting shot at Wallabies assistant after sensationally quitting RWC campaign

Lol what an absolute joke. Owen Farrell you have been kissed on the a#$e by a fairy. I reckon you need to upgrade your guardian angel’s contract.

'Mockery', 'broken game', 'laughing stock': Rugby rages as red card reversal clears Owen Farrell for World Cup

Thank God. I did not want Haas in Rugby. Good NRL player but not a Rugby player. Stay in the NRL mate.

Haas rejects Wallabies and Bulldogs to remain in Brisbane - mere minutes after TPJ quits to free up cap space

Lol so we play without a 10 huh? Well thats certainly telegraphing playing off 9.

Predicted Wallabies 23 for RWC opener: Front row tweak, bag handler to finisher, what to expect from Georgia

Too slow for both

NRL News: Bennett admits Dolphins have gone backwards, Haas waiting on Wallabies offer, Benji reveals Dally M pick

RA would be mad to try and sign Haas. What position would he play? Prop? Lol he cannot scrum, does not know lineouts or mauls, does not know about securing possession. He would be 25 and too old to learn. He would be a total waste of money.
