    Can I just point out something else that’s a bit wrong with rugby in aus

    Our club game doesn’t finish until after 5pm in Melbourne…and the final starts at 530

    Would we have changed the start time of an Aussie team had made the final?

    If so we’re making this thing up week to week

    We’re just making it hard for rugby fans to watch rugby

    If Jordie Barret doesn't even get a yellow card for head contact with a Force player, then Swinton "Just got it a bit wrong".

    Weird - we kick off First Grade at 3PM (Premier) and 3:15PM (Subbies) respectively. Usually means you're done before 5PM.

    Would we have changed the start time of an Aussie team had made the final?

    It would have been 7.45PM so wouldn't have mattered?

    Yeah, ours starts at 3:30 but even if you do finish at 5 your still going to miss something

    I was meaning if it was in nz but an Aussie team had made it

    Thought those Neanderthal features looked familiar. He’s the guy who was sent off in the Bledisloe game last year. Might be something of a liability for Rennie.

    My immediate thought.

    I'll bring up DMac's RC and suspension and compare the two.

    Despite being told by all and sundry that I'm wrong (I'm not), the difference between an inadvertent collision and a deliberate targeting is crap. Did they bring in the NRL judiciary and tell them Swinton was needed for Origin?

    Wallabies scrumhalf Nic White is out of next month’s Test series against France after suffering a knee injury at training, Queensland’s Tate McDermott is now set for his first Test start after two matches off the bench, while Brumbies No.9 Ryan Lonergan is likely to make his debut.
    Waratahs scrumhalf Jake Gordon is in camp on the Gold Coast with the Wallabies but is also recovering from a MCL injury and remains an outside chance of being available. White suffered a medial cruciate ligament injury this week and has returned home to Canberra.

    With the injury not requiring surgery, he remains in the frame for the Bledisloe Cup with the first match on August 7 in Auckland.

    Jake Gordon has won the race to wear the vacant Wallabies halfback jersey after overcoming a knee injury ahead of the opening Test against France in Brisbane on Wednesday night.

    The full team will be named this afternoon.
