    Too many outside backs, Meaks or Lance should have been picked instead of one of those outside backs

    Dane Haylett-Petty
    Richard Hardwick
    Adam Coleman
    Tatafu Polota-Nau

    Great to see the boys in the mix but sort of disappointing to see only 4 Force players even though we destroyed the reds and are leaps and bounds ahead of the Rebels when it comes to player form and attitude

    Would definitely have picked Matt Phillips over Sam Carter, he has done nothing yet so far this season considdering he has played double the amount of minutes

    Sam vs Matt

    857 min played 485
    2 Tries 1
    10 Points 5
    71 Carries 59
    106 Metres 134
    1 Clean Breaks 2
    7 Defenders Beaten 5
    1 Offloads 8
    1 Try Assists 1
    32 Passes 24
    0 Open play kicks 0
    44 Lineout catches 22
    0 Lineout steals 2

    by the way What the hell is Godwin doing there

    Godwin vs Meaks

    1 Tries 0
    5 Points 0
    54 Carries 101
    130 Metres 269
    3 Clean Breaks 3
    14 Defenders Beaten 16
    3 Offloads 8
    1 Try Assists 1
    80 Passes 99
    22 Open play kicks 1

    I think Lance is still out with injury, hence couldn't be selected. Very surprised not to see Meakes named in the squad.

    And that boys and girls is the reason the Brumbies are safe from culling because they are full of ACT product and the ARU says so!

    Love the Forces email in calling out the local WA products in Dane, Richard and Kyle. Just an outstanding result for our state.

    I took 101 years for WA to produce it's first Wallaby. Now, with the establishment of the Force and the development pathways that have been implemented since, these three could be the first of many. Can the Force and it could be more than 101 years before any more surface.

    I posted this on a FB site as everyone on this site sees Hooper as the next Wallaby Captain.. and I am waiting for replies..

    Ok you all point out Hooper is the Poss next Wallaby Captain.. We need a leader , A person who the players respect. A person who has respect in the game.. Hooper gives one of the worst post match speeches. He is not an on field leader. If he was and could guide a team on the field with all the talent the Warratahs have they should be a better team than they are.. He has been given enuff time to show what he can do and the results are just not there .. Time to bring in a leader who players would respect.. Someone like Coleman or even Sam Carter.....

    Is Naisarani eligible for the Wallabies? And Ruru?

    And no Tetera Faulkner, no Billy Meakes, ....

    Louwrens unlucky with injury, but he must be in the frame. And Peni too. And even Verty-Amm - at least he was brought up in rugby, and knows the rules, unlike Koroibete.

    Meakes is very unlucky.

    Jermaine Ainsley was specifically mentioned by Cheika. Can't remember if he said that he would be around the squad for development and/or scrum opposition training.

    I don't rate Tom Robertson at the moment he just doesn't dominate at this stage.
