Surely Quade has played his way into the Wallabies squad.

That first half was thoroughly entertaining! Rain has kinda killed the second though.

You would think so. But Deans seems incredibly petty. That was a great game tonight. We were outstanding in the first 20 minutes. If we had a full strength side I think we could've beaten them tonight.

But with this said I can't see the Wallabies beating the Lions. Think we'll be to negative.

Scotland Vs Samoa is on now as well, good game so far.

Definitely, even Quade if he plays will tone it down a notch for the enormity of the occasion, and fear of what the media will say if his 1%'s don't come off.

The amount of times he quickly tapped and went last night, throwing dangerous passes, deft little cross-field kicks. The amount of times the team ran out from well inside their 22... that's what I remember Rugby being like when I played in high school, that's how I fell in love with the game. Not for all this penalty kicking and midfield bombing. An enterprising Quade Cooper makes the game good to watch. Which, unfortunately, is something the game has lacked for pretty much the last 10 years.

Big shout out to my home boys, the Canadian National Rugby Team! Dominating the Pacific Nations Cup with wins over USA, Tonga and Fiji! Just last place Japan to beat and the cup is ours!

By far the fastest improving national team in World Rugby.

It's getting massive in Canada. Rugby League is growing too, but nowhere near as much.

I used to go watch the provincial competition, because a mate of mine played for Richmond, and I was quite surprised at the quality. It's only going to get bigger too.

Who on earth taught the lad how to tackle? That looked like a bad one. Tackles like that in NFL are career ending.
