    For sure no hard feelings if Chukka wants to head to a superannuation league.
    He won't be in the frame for Wallaby duties and he is in the later half of his career.
    Am grateful that he has stuck around.
    Nonetheless, still need to be looking in every nook and cranny of the pro Rugby world for an adequate starting Flyhalf for this season so as not to overburden/overwhelm our existing options.
    Interestingly, the seasoned but not that brilliant Fairbanks isn't getting mentioned at all for the stop gap, despite experience there. Not a good sign for what is left of his career unless there is an injury I am unaware of?

    I never thought Swan had it in him to crack funnies in the bull-shit-pit. But his lines re: Abbott, Costello, the three Stooges and his discovery of the "Fourth Stooge" of Canberranomics have been a chuckle.

    Sometimes poking trolls is fun, but this isn't going anywhere, I'm over it. Somebody else can have a go.....maybe I'll start up again if Rex weaves a point somewhere in his bucket of crap.

    I'm only too happy for loyal servants to finish their career gracusly and then run off to the big dollars. Chuck has been loyal to us, even though we weren't completely loyal to him. Good luck if he does go. He's obviously behind Sheehan for the 9 and JT isn't going to get dropped for chuck and he certainly seems to be struggling in the 10 slot ATM. I wonder if he'll still be looking at Japan in seven hours.

    Can't really blame the guy for shopping around when he only gets offered a 12 month contract ...

    You probably love those incompetent pr1cks. A red headed communist, a treasurer who can't balance the books, the Disaster on Rudd St, leaks from the back bench, leaks from the front bench, factional infighting, Green Party running the country, shafting independents............funny.......more like flying circus. How's your Red V going?

    Every team that is scoring tries in the S15 is taking risks on attack and off loading pre - into and post contact
    as a huge % of the game is at tackle and BIC phases the force just need to up the tempo here and stop pre determing rucks looking for quick ball and failing - far too much T-boning into contact, far too much 1v1, 2v2 in close quarter work and not enough staying on feet, mini mauling and dynamic play with ball in hand ( from all the players)
    Chucky is as good as gold there, let him run to the line and put presure on these teams with the angles he creates, the step that he has got and the quick hands - He is NOT a pocket player
    Look at what he brought to the team in terms of dynamism when Brett left the field.

    Good player that Sheehan is, he's too slow of foot , pass and thought - his style of play suits a juggernaut pack a la Blue Bulls - well we haven't got that here.

    And a few more linear runs from depth (like Bam Bam did when he sored that try) and not so much lateral stuff will help them. The force are using Nalagi the wrong way - look at his tapes in France where the rugby is defensively brutal - he needs a free reign to bust through anywhere a bit like Digby. John Mitchell never used Digby properly but now look at what Link lets him do - we're too stagnated in our thinking and broad approach as to how we are playing.

    Trawling around the world for another #10 will not alleviate what the real problems are - give Seymour and Goodwin and Tunrner a go.
