    Grant10, Wallabies sucked playing “skop ‘n jag” :D hehehe

    Campaign highlights Wallaby shortcomings
    by: Jim Tucker From: The Daily Telegraph October 18, 2011

    ROBBIE Deans is still the right man to be coaching the Wallabies but he needs to find a brawny, cauliflower-eared Argentinian prop who can scrum like a truck and a 105kg centre who can smash defences in a hurry.

    The post-mortem on the World Cup cannot just focus on Deans, as coach, or five-eighth Quade Cooper, who never looked comfortably in rhythm for much of the Wallabies’ three important games.

    The overwhelming feeling from six weeks at the tournament is that the Wallabies are not the team of out and out stars that fans, past players and the media thought they would be.

    Just an example. The Wallabies would kill for a line-busting, all-purpose centre like Jamie Roberts or a prop off the conveyor belt from Buenos Aires.

    The 1991 and 1999 World Cup triumphs have put the bar exceedingly high on this country’s expectations at the tournament every four years. Australian media made hotel bookings all the way through to the final. The Irish press made theirs only to the quarters.

    On the trusted measure of needing five or six World XV quality players to win a World Cup, the Wallabies came up well short.

    Only lionhearted flanker David Pocock and fullback Kurtley Beale were hands-down in that club. Winger Digby Ioane and skipper James Horwill put their hands up at their best moments as did halfback Will Genia, who was still far less of a standout than expected.

    What did we get out of six weeks? There was a blur of wonderful second half tries against Italy, the predictable try-fests against the US and Russia and a supremely gritty and character-filled win over South Africa.

    Against the All Blacks in the semi we barely fired a shot which is the toughest thing to swallow.

    With two non-passing centres like wonderfully courageous Pat McCabe and Anthony Faingaa, Australia’s best weapons on the wing in Ioane and James O’Connor were starved of ball.

    We now realise how much that shock loss to Ireland spooked the Wallabies because it convinced Deans to put away the expansive point-of-difference style he had drilled for four years in favour of a poorly-executed kicking and pseudo-northern hemisphere game.

    Kicks were rushed away early in the phase count instead of holding the ball for longer. Cooper looked at sea with it all too.

    Deans is devoted to the job but it is also about results. He was shown faith with a new two-year deal before the Cup but now it’s a series win over the British and Irish Lions in 2013 or bye-bye.

    @Treehugger(Treehugger)-705: hehehe i’ve always been strangely amused by soeme people in our country who seem to care more for animals more than fellow human beings. the other day a friend of mine who lives in jozi was astounded when his neighbour’s wife buzzed his intercom and asked the strangest of questions.

    when he opened, she sincerely asked him if he wanted to give his 13 month old boerboel puppy, that he bought in east london last year, to her. she continued that a friend of hers who lives in another surburb had agreed to adopt the dog.

    my friend, as one would expect, was dumbfounded and told her “no, the dog is happy here and well taken care of” :D

    cheers tree, gym

    So all that talk about the World Cup being won by a team coached by a Kiwi could still be proven correct…

    It can’t be that all these wise Kiwi coaches get out thought by a mad Frenchman, could it?

    Never could a Kiwi coach ever be outthought by a Frenchman…

    Especially not the three wise men…

    The three wise men vs Lievremont and some arbitrary Yorkshireman who professes to be a defence guru…? Come on now, no way.

    @Transformation(Transformation)-707: Human beings are masters of there own fate more or less, animals not……… somebody has to speak out for them, Humans cause all the misery on this planet not the animals they are the innocents and yet they are so abused, I see and hear what most of you dont and there are some scare’y feckers out there.

    A person is missing a part of there soul or what ever you want to call it if they cannot relate, or else they are just psychopaths in the making like those students from UKZN.

    Have been dealing with a lot of bad stuff the last couple of weeks Keo is my de-compressorizer (made up word). Most of the people on here make me laugh and forget for a short while when i read the comments.

    @Treehugger(Treehugger)-712: Very well put. I have a big soft spot for the plight of the helpless in all forms, including of course animals.

    Was it Ghandi who said that you can judge the level of civilisation of a society by how it treats it’s weakest members?

    In that i would obviously include the elderly, the young, the sick and of course, the animals.

    We don’t score that highly by that measure unfortunately.

    I think it was Dostoyevskey that said that you can judge a nation by it’s prisons. We don’t score very highly by that measure either.

    Kofi Annan said something similar about how we treat women and children. Another fail.

    Environment? Not sure, you’d probably know more about that than me. But it doesn’t look to be a very good trend that I see developing..

    Do you realise that your ” my girl ” is closer to 55 than to 45 by much?

    Are you always so condescending and/or patronising?

    Is it, by any chance, because you are reminded of your most favorite tea-girl from your ealier days in the good old English colony of Cape Town?

    Don’t read too much into the questions as ” I am just intrigued”.

    @ET.(ExtraThuvi.)-726: Do you know that on questions of colour it is about Black… or White. There is mostly no in between.

    In between is Grey.

    “A Grey” is also a term for an extraterrestrial.

    Are you Grey or “a Grey”?

    Do you see ghosts too?

    In my post 726 there is reference to age but no reference to black or white or “grey”.

    There is no “grey” or gray in my scientific rainbow which spells out ” vibgyor “.

    “Grey” ‘ is ‘n nare gemors, ‘n mengsel van swart en wit. Dit bestaan nie in die wetenskap as’n ware kleur nie’.

    @Transformation(Transformation)-739: I’m actually better on economics and finance. It’s my practical background . I studied law, but I do not practice.

    I can say with relative certainty however that it is unethical to pay for eyewitness testimony. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.

    The easiest thing to do is to suppoena the witness, but that’s also not a guarantee of appearance.

    My question to TH would be, if the witness is genuinely “intimidated”, how much money is he placing on his safety?

    Sounds like he’s taking a chance.
