    Tomorrow morning I've got a presentation about cystic fibrosis for my foundations unit, he's cracked a mention in my speech about coping and living with the disease. What a little trooper. Well deserving of a wallaby jersey !

    A kick in this game is like a rather nasty alcoholic shooter, only as good as it's chaser...

    No team has been not till Monday there is some talk over a g&g that that is the case but no one knows where It came from. Considering that deans said I. The rugby club that 16-27 reds and force players will be there for the first week of training I would think more than 4 force players would be there woulntd think 12 reds will get a gig.

    I bloody well hope he's not missed out on selection!!! The 40 man squad is being announced tomorrow. If he's not on that list I will need a quadruple dose of chill pills and a month's worth of chakra realignment!!!

    I love stories like this.

    What a champion effort. Well played that man.

    He was one of my favourite players in super rugby and with this insight he now is my favourite player.

    How the h*ll does Ma'afu get in the squad but Cowan doesn't? I wouldn't say Ma'afu's been disappointing this season, because I never rated him, but Ma'afu's been a big reason for our scrum troubles this year.

    Dikhead Robbie is the reason Nathan isn't in the squad....he hasn't chosen a squad on form for the entirety of his tenure and will likely be shown the door next year. Worse than the forwards, with too many locks and only two opensides, are the backs.......surely the most uninspiring choice since he started.

    Nick Phipps still gets a run despite blowing hot and cold....4 tah backs and no forcemen even though the Tahs suck just as bad. It includes the king of missed tackles. Hopefully we have the hutzpa to beat Scotland.
