That's a good Wallaby team actually, we'll actually have to play well to win.
They’ve got some big units in their pack that can be pretty good in attack.

That loose forward combo.
Looks like the Wallabies will get a severe caning.
Quality.
They'll cop a Savea Caning if they don't Read what they're trying to do...
To be Frank, Australia better be in the right Mood for this as I see it as a Bridge to far based on the teams named.

More importantly the weather forecast looks good for Perth for Saturday
Fuck that's right. You make a good point. Just so accustomed to bled 1 being in Sydney.

Moli and Ta'avao will play their tickets to Japan. They will probably scrum against Slipper and Tupou who are no pushovers. If they are dominated, then Hansen could rely on Tuinukuafe (if fit) and Laulala as I think Ofa T is a certainty for the RWC squad.

Just realised this friendly will be over by the time I get off the plane. I'm expecting to be much happier than any Wallaby supporters when I find out the score.
What sort of fan are you? Change your bloody flight.
I moved my wedding when I realised it clashed with the World Cup - although given it was 2003, I wish I hadn't.
Didn't work out?

Will be interesting to see how they use the loose trio. numbers on the teamsheet don't necessarily tell that story so i'll hold fire on that one for now, though savea is certainly the furthest from our recent style 6 of the 3. he has to be on the park now though, too good to leave out. read is lucky there isn't another loosie demanding selection, cause i think he'd have to be the one to make way.
i really like the team selected as a whole, great to see them persist with mounga/barrett, and finally ALB/goodhue. have high hopes but don't have huge expectations performance-wise in this game though, combinations take time to gel.I see a little bit of the McCaw, Collins, So'oialo, Holah / Masoe combination in this backrow selection. The key part that seems to be missing is JC's shoulders, though.

I can't believe I wasted my time having a Read of this.

That team is HOT!! I really am a fan of S Barrett so am looking forward to him trying to dominate.
Agree about it being a very good team.
But don't share your enthusiasm for S Barrett. He's workmanlike at best.(There: talked him down for you so no doubt he'll play a blinder!)

Reckon Cane isn't far off - and if Read gets even a little bit of form back he's not far off either.

The ABs have a game plan Taylor made for the Wallabies. We will be too Good(hue) with our double Barrett shot gun attack.

Ok, way better.

The fact that they’ve picked a team that so many on the Fern wanted makes me nervous. As a collective we have a strong proven record of not having a fucking clue what we are talking about.

You say that. And yet when I have to listen to the shit spouted at work about rugby I think fondly of Fern wisdom.
We might always be wrong. But not half as wrong as most fans.

Yep, I reckon canes physicality goes underrated by many, , he is a beast of a 7
