2013 Squad so far

[GAFFA]

Curtis Browning is too short to be a lock- he should specialise as a 6 or an 8. He is also too young.

I read that his club was trying to turn him into a LHP im not sure why he killed it at the 20s wc. Another example of why our props stocks have been so shit over the years.

Had to edit the Rasolea situation as is not resolved yet but should be soon.

McMenimen apparently wants a crack at Wallaby selection again for next World Cup. Pakalani released from Tahs after limited opportunities, had good form for Southern Districts. 2 other names floating around are J Tuttle, Qld schools system and M Hingano, NSW club scene.
Snowden, Hilderbrand, Walton and Manu confirmed for EPS.

The Manu one is the name I want to see. Can they get rid of maafu and promote Manu to the full squad in this round of your the weakest link.

Tuttle is a better prospect than O'Connor was.

I'd have thought he's too tall to be a loosehead prop. You don't see many looseheads around 190cm.

I don't know if Greg Peterson would be a better option. Word is that he hasn't lived up to expectation. Who is to say he'd be better than Battye? It would be better value to stick with Battye for at least a year and give him a proper shot- he's only played a handful of games off the bench.

Jed Holloway is good but he is only about 20. He needs a year or two in the EPS. He's another one who might be better off not being a lock and being a 6 instead. He has the athleticism and build to be a very good 6.

I was wondering why Peterson hadn't played Super Rugby yet considering he was ahead of Battye and Luke Jones in the U/20s pecking order a couple of years ago. Timani, Vickerman, Douglass, Caldwell in front of him too.

Whos this guys whats his first name?

pretty piss more effort to let Battye go, when i thought he was 1 of the up and coming players... can see us releasing players without a "decent" replacement coming on board.

I think we might be jumping the gun on this. Hopefully he is staying

Main Squad has 27 signed, just 3 spots left and one can be a International Development Player.

8 past or present Wallabies and you would expect The Honeybadger to get a gig against SA.

But two years from when?

The link was to the 2012 playing squad so I think 2 years from this year?

[sandgroperrugby]

What about removing JT from that list as he has been ruled out for all of next season.
