[QUOTE="Fushitsusha, post: 152657"] How old is Finegan now, probably my favourite player, loved the ****le, we need him to come in as a trainer or something and teach our forwards how to be rough ********... [/b][/quote] Australia has missed that genuine toughness in its forwards since a lot of those players retired. I think we can retain it through guys like Shepherdson, Elsom, McMeniman etc., but the new coach is going to have to look to some of the newer players like Maafu and Polata-Nau to improve the pack. I'm still perplexed why Eddie Jones chose Cockbain over Finegan for that World Cup? Apparently it was due to Finegan's lack of form but he was still a far better player than Cockbain at that stage in their careers. [/QUOTE]
