Wales v Australia

@NTA said in Wales v Australia:
@Bones you'd think so. For a nation that doesn't play a lot of top flight pro rugby the injury toll has been horrific.
The 2014 Tahs had almost no injuries through their run. Maybe we look there.
I don't think the Crusaders will be too keen to bring Todd Blackadder back though.

Christ
The fact that they don't have to cancel this match speaks volumes about the quality of the Australian squad

@Dan54 said in Wales v Australia:
I just hope that Hooper is ok. After hiw problems earlier in year, I wouldn't be suprised if he said that's it.
I hope not although I not a Wallaby supporter or anything I think Hooper a bloody good player, and would like him to go out on own terms.Only just turned 31, seems to have been around for decades.

If we weren't outside the window we could pick a few clubbies from Premier like we did with Ollie Hoskins last year.

Off season is going to be a long rest for some of these guys. And we won't see any improvement in the Super Rugby squads as a result.

Australia XV named
Think we can do them

@MiketheSnow According to Planet Rugby there are only 25 fit players left in the tour party including only 10 backs.

Rolf Harris at hooker would be sweet
Can push in scrums with two legs AND still hook the ball
