Test rugby schedules? Have we asked too much of our @Wallabies in 2025 with 15 Tests in 140 days / a Test every 9.3 days? Q. How does that compare? A. Unfavourably.

@mattfa91 And then we got the LHPs and probably 12 and TH lock.

Not enough has been made of this signing.
The Wallabies are vulnerable at both LHP and THP but signings mike thus matter.
Bell, AAA, Tupou, Robertson and hopefully Slipper that is the extent of rostered on props.
Schoupp, HJH, Ross, Nonggorr, Kailea, Van Nek are crucial too!

Stuart McCloskey, Caelan Doris, and Tadhg Beirne make the @OptaJonny team of the Six Nations, which is based on their Opta Index player scores.
Lots of other nice Six Nations data in their championship review piece: theanalyst.com/articles/great…

@SimonTwiss @DrewPavlou That’s very much the case. No, not blaming them for buying the cheaper option but by doing so they drove the big retailers out of their districts. Now the independents can’t get fuel at spot from their international suppliers and the farmers aren’t happy. Can’t have it both ways.
English
@mattfa91 @DrewPavlou Yeah not sure that’s the case. According to the worst energy minister we have ever had Chris Bowen we have 34 days. Not sure we can blame farmers or anyone else for wanting to buy cheaper fuel?

It's not that deep, we just have a left wing government that doesn't want to piss off Muslim voters dude

Can’t stress this enough, do you know how badly a White House has to fuck-up to make ‘Australia’ say “hard-pass” on one of its military operations? The Aussies have followed us into everyone one of our wars since Australia gained full autonomy/independence from the UK. This is like the attached-at-the-hip little brother saying “fam, I love you, but you’ve got a problem”
English
@Murray_Kinsella IMHO, it’s a race in four. McCloskey, Louis B-B, Finn Russell & Tommaso Menoncello.
Honorable mentions for Jamison G-P, Tadgh Byrne, Jack Dempsey, Charles Ollivon and the entire Italian pack 1-8.
English
Stuart McCloskey hugely in the mix for player of the Six Nations.
English
@SimonTwiss @DrewPavlou We have plenty of diesel, just not near all the farmers who preferred to buy cheaper fuel from the independents - who buy at spot rate - and in doing so drove the larger retailers -who buy on contracted rates - out of many regional centers because it was uneconomic to stay.
English
@kinson88 A question for #InsideLine if I may, why don't we use CToole as France use Louis B-B? Get him the ball on the outside, kick into the vacant space down his side. CT has the one thing you can't teach - speed. 27 tries in 27 Tests for LB-B says it all.

@therugbyfanshaz 100%. Did the same at home with my pause function. If you and I can manage to take this shot without frame-to-frame technology how is it that the TMO could not?

@BrittMitchell11 No blowout a la Singapore. Closer result than Perth. Improving / sneaking up on them.

Yet again Aussie women 7s come undone at the hands of the Black Ferns in the gold medal match.
Huge fightback in the middle, but just missing an edge to get above their rivals. NZ absolutely rag dolled them at one stage. Pressure clearly an issue for this team. #SVNS

@BigOtrivia @telegraph_sport Of those 8, Hill, Collins and Murray.
Shamefully I forgot Collins in the list below. His 1986 Cox Plate call of Bonecrusher defeating Our Waverley Star was stuff of legends.

Teams underperform on attack when they change the colour of their jersey.

@Nelsonhdale AKellaway had a forgettable night. Perhaps / likely underdone? Don't recall a single box kick that he managed to diffuse. Regularly caught out in defense. Has lost a yard, perhaps two, of pace. Aside from Poolman we had no physical presence in the backline. It showed.
English
Lomax could play 13…
Jokes aside I wish we didn’t lose Henry O’Donnell, Ropata and Foketi over the off season.
We could be looking at Kellaway to 13? If it means more of Harvey I’m okay with it

Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii expected to miss a bit of footy. Hamstring. McKellar not expecting him back anytime soon.
English
@BMcSport They were poor, really poor. The signs were there, particularly in regard to execution, vs. Drua. The Hurricanes dismantled them.
This week the backs need an offsite to introduce themselves & then 3 x 90 min sessions on how to pass the ball in front of the intended receiver.
English
A bit more than 'not our night', but no, certainly wasn't.
More than a few concerns to come out of this result for NSW. Couldn't really make ground, seemed to lose breakdown presence, backline attack flaky at best.
Big week of soul searching ahead..
