Not taking too much notice of Brumbies victory as obviously it was a lack lustre team fielded by BILs and Brumbies were good enough to close it out even with at least 9 front line players out. It seems the NZ coaches aren't really that good after all as Gatland was schooled by Jake and Ewen the week before - incidentally the Reds only lost due to numerous missed kicks at goal and obvious lack of depth in forward pack at setpiece. SO the big question mounts - Is the Wobbly team made up of most of Australia's best players, coached by an incoherent, past-his-used-by-date, uni-dimensional, non-tactical thinking drongo good enough to get past the BIL team coached by a below average, self-absorbed kiwi....???? I personally think that Suncorp is the only TRUE home ground advantage field for Australian rugby and IF the wobs loose this the series could go from bad to worse very quickly. The obvious upside would be Deans' sacking if the BILs did win 3 zip.... but for the sake of Wallaby pride I hope they do put on a good show and take game 1. With my tickets costing $350AUD (that's about 700NZD and about 100000000000000 ZAR) I hope the spectacle is worth it.! Anyway IF wallabies are to win series they MUST win here and form some nice combos but I just think the BILs 1XV have had time to gel and Wobs will be wobbly and execution will be the make or break... something I think is lacking from numerous Wallaby stars considering not one of the likely backline have SXV combo experience... eg Most likely back line 9 Genia reds (GOOD) 10 JOC rebels (out of position) 11 Ioane reds (GOOD - but returning from injury & often fumbles ball) 12 McCabe brum (returning from injury / cant pass / Deans' fag-boy) 13 AAC Tahs (GOOD) 14 Folau Tahs (EXCELLENT - would prefer him @ 15) 15 Beale rebels (GOOD - EXCELLENT - prefer him to have a few more games under belt and not have been in Alco rehab for lead up & defence is suspect) Bottom line is this backline will have had only training time to Gel and I don't think JOC @ 10 will have the gameplay to distribute the ball effectively enough.

long time no see redsneck, a few things though,,,,

"It seems the NZ coaches aren't really that good after all as Gatland was schooled by Jake and Ewen the week before - incidentally the Reds only lost due to,,,"
i love how u sya that disgusting tub of a fat pig lard ewen mackenzie schooled gatland, only to follow it up with "incidently, the reds only lost due to,,,", LMFAO, :oD
so schooling someone now means when u lose to them, guess that makes the highlanders and force the strongest teams in the spXV, o_O

"The obvious upside would be Deans' sacking if the BILs did win 3 zip.... but for the sake of Wallaby pride I hope they do put on a good show and take game"
no worries there redsneck, after the reds v lions game, deans was justified in not playing useless cooper, and that has ensured a wallabies victory, im predicting a wallabies whitewash, a comfortable victoy in the first two tests with the lions to push close in the thrid test.
should be an exciting sereis none the less.

"$350AUD (that's about 700NZD and about 100000000000000 ZAR)"
im not surprised by how little u know of anything outside of inbreeeding, but my daily dealings with forex spotted ur second mong alert.
$350 OZ is only $414 NZ, not double like u think, so i hope u havent been making investments with those mong numbers.

"Bottom line is this backline will have had only training time to Gel and I don't think JOC @ 10 will have the gameplay to distribute the ball effectively enough."
after watching the rebels v reds game, it was clear that oconner had it in spades over cooper, so no worries there. besides deans isnt going to want to hide the flyhalf out back like a freaking yellow bellied coward which cooper is, mr diabetes ewean mackenzie might love playing hide and go seek with cooper, but the All Blacks after the RWC semi finals showed just how much that can backfire.

i do agree with u about mccabe though, his selection is a bit of a waste. hopefully christain leilafano is playing 12 in all the tests.

mate if Link is fat then Hansen is a genuine walking heart attack.... plus an arrogant prick who will have to suck it hard very soon.... like the rest of the cheating ABs noticed frogs gave them a good scare in 1st game... Obviously hyperbole is lost on you dense kiwis - yep as 100000000000000000 ZAR equals 350AUD.... denseness.... McCabe may not be in the team - latest today called liliafano @ 12 and Barnes @ 15.... which shows that JOC CANT handle 10 and needs 15 and 12 to be quasi fly halves... Deans is crap dense has been stutterer (maybe he can win the Voice next season) cant wait for him to go as cant 99.9999999% of wallaby supporters
