    2013 they played Qld Country and it was not pretty

    They're already going to put cricket scores on our Super teams.

            Marky Mark out is a smart call
            Beale in is not.

              Aussies have loads of wingers to pick from. Mark Nawaqkjhlkdsfsdtawase is erratic, the fact he is leaving makes it an easy call

              I don't mind the Beale selection. He made a huge difference to the Force. I assume Schmidt is going to go for the second play maker style of fullback.. loads of chat and take the pressure off of the flawed tens. Kellaway number one and Beale the injury cover?

                I get that he's a squaddie. But he is still 35, and hasn't been a difference maker at test level since like 2011. Aussie need to build test quality depth pretty much everywhere, this seems like a wasted development spot.

                Unless, of course, he's there to show some kids the ropes.

                      Didn't Willie le Roux play minutes in a RWC winning team at 34 last year? and even a few of their backs over 30 I think. Not something you traditionally see from Aus or NZ, but not necessarily the wrong thing if you're down on experience, at least you know he is likely to be focused on rugby and hardly unlikely to set foot in a Bondi bar anytime soon

                                        Obviously the Tahs need to be successful, but RA really should do all in their power to have the Force become competitive.
