I just thought I'd spend a little time Un-Bret Harrissing this article
After finally realising on the Wallabies spring tour that he's not a flyhalf's bootlace
most view him as a waste of prescious oxygen at 10
suffered through I'm pleased, since this seems to indicate a massive drop in Matt's ego, the one thing standing between him and true greatness. because I'm mindful of the employment record of other head coaches under whom Matt has served, unquestioning obedience isn't one of the man's strong suits rightly a fact which Friend seems totally oblivious of if you're Matt Giteau and most of those reasons were Matt running into isolation thinking he could break the line against the best tacklers in the World and Matt failing to pass the ball to his teammates in a reasonable fashion he's freakin insane, but[quote=mudskipper;236225], it would create a battle between Toomua and Lealiifano
Giteau will be rested for that match[/in the hope of finding a real flyhalf it appears going the other way round is more difficult

Muddy's clearly bored
To Justin Harrison, Henry Vanderglas is a strong, athletic and skilful teammate of the future.
It wasn't always the way.
Harrison's earliest memories of sharing an ACT Brumbies changeroom with Vanderglas was of him being a ''little blond pest'', an 11-year-old who would steal the players' energy drinks.
During the Brumbies early years, Vanderglas was a regular around the place while his dad, Arch, worked as club masseur.
To veteran Harrison it's now partly sobering, partly inspiring that he's sharing a training paddock with the kid from that distant time of the mid to late 1990s.
''Little Henry used to be the kid who'd come in and annoy us when we were in for a rub. He was a pest, but a good little blond pest,'' Harrison said.
''It's certainly very sobering to think of me playing with him all these years later.''
For most Brumbies players, joining the club has been a professional decision, a choice made to leave their home state.
But for the likes of Vanderglas, Matt Giteau, Guy Shepherdson, Huia Edmonds and Peter Kimlin, it's realising a childhood dream. For Academy player Vanderglas his opportunity came against Wellington last season, his first of three caps off the bench.
''I've had an affinity with the team since day one and I've loved them most of my life,'' Vanderglas said.
''Getting to play for the Brumbies, I'm stoked about it. When you're playing for a team you've always supported, it's always a better feeling running out on the paddock.''
It was Vanderglas's passion to play for the ACT that won him his place in the squad. At the end of the 2008 ACT club season, the Brumbies offered him a tier-two position in the Academy, essentially a part-time position during the off-season with a modest $1500 one-off payment.
With time and energy at his disposal having already completed his environmental science degree, and sensing the door into professional rugby was closing, Vanderglas took the gutsy decision of asking more of coach Andy Friend.
''He said he didn't want that, he thought he was tier one [full-time] material,'' Friend said.
''I said I wouldn't consider him for that sight unseen, so I said we'll give you two weeks with no payment and if we don't like you we'll drop you out of the program.
''He backed himself, trained for two weeks.
''We said we really liked it and said train for another two to see that it wasn't a fluke, then we took him on for two more and eventually we said we'd keep him around.''
Friend liked Vanderglas's attitude during that trial stage.
''He was a real sponge with information and every opportunity he got he took it,'' Friend said.
''He wasn't afraid in contact, he'd belt blokes. If the ball was on the ground, Henry would be jumping onto it. It was the sort of attitude you wanted.''
