    Team Lists

    I have a new personal rugby gripe, why are the media starting to name teams from Fullback to Loosehead (15-1) rather than what I consider the traditional Loosehead to Fullback (1-15)?
    Is it because the "flashy" players that sell copy and tickets are in the backs or becuase many commentators are backline players?????
    I don't get it, why change the system????
    To make it even more stupid they then go back to convention by listing the reserve bench 16-22, ie forwards then backs!
    Stupid stupid stupid!!!
    That's my belly ache for the week anyway!

    I've worked it out Burgs - it's simple really when you have a look at the current wallabies line up - No one wants Matt Dunning to appear at top of the list of players
