We can always use RabbitOriginally Posted by robyn <3
"Remember lads, rugby is a team game; all 14 of you make sure you pass the ball to ..........."
"Rabbit" is really kinda gay for a Wallaby and now borderline senior player though...
"Bloody oath we did!"
Nathan Sharpe, Legend.
Not as gay as bunny, but.....
So how 'bout we just call him Jimmy and his brother Jonny..
I can hear the crowd when Jonny score......."Here's Jonny!!!"
For the younger gen, that's a famous movie line - Jack Nicholson - The Shining
Or the intro for Johnny Carson...ok, I'm not that old, just remember the reference
I guess his brother has to amount to something first, before we get too concerned.

Kinda ironic considering one of the reasons they came up with the Wallabies name was so the poms wouldn't call us "the Rabbits".
How about
".....did he score five or did he score six? Do ya feel lucky?"
Controversy corner
True, but on the off chance, a baby rabbit is called a kitten. He might not appreciate that, though there is always "Little Bunny Foo Foo".
"Thumper"?

Well I dont believe that for a second. James was starting in the super 14 two years at 12. That year he had already represented the Aus Sevens team and was a star performer in the two rounds he played in. Later that year he got selected for the Wallabies European tour.
In 2007 he also played for queensland 1, Aus schools and was identified as one of the most exciting talents in Australia.
No offence to Jonny but he only managed to get in the TSS 1st XV in 2010, when he was a year older than most of his team mates. He only repped for GPS II's i think, didnt make queensland schools and got nowhere near the Aus Schools team.
His parents can big him up all they want but he is not of the same pedigree as James
Totally agree with everything except the last four words dob, they are too alike for it to be the Postman
Agreed, he has a long way to go to live up to his brothers meteoric rise. He may warrant a closer look but is still unproven and needs to make it on his own two legs, which I am sure he would be well aware of, either personally or by a badgering older brother!

Let the kitten be judged on his own merits. The sad reality for him is that immediate stardom is expected by a judgemental public. He lives in a big shadow.
I hope he gets given a chance to develop at his own pace.
Controversy corner
his own pace may not be fast enough,look at Stefano Hunt
Probably should look up the meaning of pedigree there champ...unless there was a milkman involved?
coz Stone Cold says so
classic...
What if the milkman sired the first progeny?Then they both would have the same pedigree.
