@Tim Harry JH is a good prospect but won't figure this year unless there are injuries. Our LH prop depth is really good at the moment, and he's behind Sio and Slipper. Kepu, Alaalatoa and Tupou will be the other three props we take to the RWC.
Staniforth has barely featured for the Tahs this year. No idea why NTA has put him in there.

And you all know AAC is making the 23...

Oh look, if I wanted to pick what Cheika was going to pick, it would have a lot more Tahs starting. We know that is likely to be the case.

Purely on Saturday's performance.
The other options for the bench include guys like Simmons (soft in contact, penalty magnet) and Hanigan (as above but also a complete fucking lightweight), the 15 yo beanstalk at the Reds (nope - he's 15), Mat Philip (maybe, but not sure he's more than a hard worker), or Lukhan ChangedHisName from the Reds.
The Brumbies locks are in poor form and / or injured. I don't rate Sam Carter full stop.
Luke Jones, maybe? Can cover blindside as well but is not exactly hitting power. Him or Lukhan might end up with it.

To be fair, he's including about 99% of society on that list so it isn't just an anti-gay tirade.
That is some A grade lunacy in Tasmania though.

@Stargazer maybe he wants to shake loose and chase bigger coin after the WC.. but wait, wouldn't that be a tad greedy??
Douche posts imo. Will be very interesting to see if it's another slap on the wrist or something more substantive from Oz rugby.

He got away with it last time. Probably will now too with the RWC on the horizon.
Hubris and arrogance I guess. He had nothing to gain from doing this.

Folau's social media posts are clearly in breech of Rugby Australia and World Rugby's codes of conduct. A fine or a ban is entirely appropriate.
His tone is dreadful and his attitude lacks sympathy and empathy. How are young players who gay going to feel after learning that someone who they might look up to writes drivel like that? Very good player, but it is really sad that he feels the need to keep making public statements that are arrogant, unhelpful and unkind.

Shame Folau doesnt look across at SBW and see how you can have your beliefs and not be a cnut.

And Brad Thorn & Michael Jones.

Don't forget Keven Mealamu and pretty much every player with a Pacific Island background. Seems Folau is just not a good person.
