I hate the Tahs.
I was going to observe that Berrick Barnes in now happy that he can give up custody of the mascot for a loooong time to James O'Connor.
Should be first 90's born Wallaby too.
Jeez, I am getting old :S
I feel old by a year, someone younger than me is in the Wallabies squad :S I never thought that would happen before I atleast turned 22!
It would seem really wierd ifthere someone on the team who started their Wallabies career in the 90's.
Always have and always will.
Losing to them this year the way we did was the most devastating thing thats happened this year even more devastating than knowing i've spent the last 3 months doing intensive movement therapy and it was all for nothing and i may have a permanently bung hand.
Looking at the obvious suspects he doesn't have that rare double.
Our longest serving (not most capped, but close) players are Cordingley and Mortlock (v Argentina in Brisbane) then Smith (v France in Paris), all in 2000.
As observed before all this other hoo har though, Cordingley is old enough to be his father with a 14 year age gap! Scary for both I'm sure!
Sorry, should have said the three above were all 2000 debuts, will edit it.
'Hurt and angry' Chisholm recalled

Recalled Wallabies lock Mark Chisholm says being named in Robbie Dean's squad for the spring tour is just the start of a long battle for him to earn a starting spot.
Chisholm was named in the 34-man squad yesterday, alongside four Brumbies teammates, for the tour beginning with a match in Hong Kong against New Zealand before moving on to Europe.
The 27-year-old was shattered when left out of the Tri Nations squad and struggled watching the matches from his loungeroom.
"It was tough," Chisholm said. "Being in there for four years and being a part of the team for I think it was 32 Tests in a row and then to be left out for a couple, it hurt and it's hard to watch.

I hate the Tahs as well.
Maybe a new thread is called for. Why we hate the Tahs.
Dangerous usage of the term "bumblebee's" Robyn, might get some old WA State players offside, some are a bit precious about our proud State jersey ;)
