Worst Australian XV on paper for a generation.
First topic message reminder :
Injuries in Australia have handed Wales the best opportunity for a win in Australia in living memory (depending on how old your are).
It would be criminal for Wales not to grab this by the scruff. We all thought that miracles had happened in 2007 when one of the worst ever Wales team was 1 minute away from a famous away in in Oz, only for Gareth Cooper to pick up our box of dreams and smash it to pieces.
Wales are on form, have a great pack, a team built nearly entirely on youth, have just won the grand slam and are immensely fit.
Australia are smack bang in the middle of Super 15 and have also suffered several injuries in key positions. The los to Scotland shows that they can be beaten and nullified in attack, but it will also mean that they are that extra bit motivated against Wales.

I think deans has lost it again. He was abysmal at the press conference.
He just doesnt have the players we know but that means form must be the determining factor and as rob says...why pick tahs players?

I think they will due to Deans' confounding selection of out form players and also a lack of preparation. As I said on another thread, this side has had one training run together. One. Wales have been planning and preparing for this for months. It's a no brainer.

What?! A couple of weeks maybe, but not months. The season has just finished. I admit the the Ozzies have a bad schedule at present, but the Autumn internationals are sandwiched in the NH regular season, so there's not much difference in the reverse fixtures really. There, the players go from playing the likes of Aironi in the Rabo league to facing the All Blacks in the space of a week. But we're told to suck it up!

After all this considerations, It's difficult to see how Wales can losing this one.
If they do will be some giant failing and there must be the repercussion for responsibles people.

WHY...?
We are playing a team we haven't beaten in a good while who are ranked second in the world in their country. Granted they are missing some good players like Horwill, James O'Connor and Kurtley Beale but they still have as much Worldclass talent as Wales do...!
Why would their have to be repercussions.
PS I added corrections to your post to help you improve your grammar. Your vocabulary seems very good but you make some bizarre grammatical mistakes. As a new and frequent user of this site I am sure we can all endeavour to improve your English.

Or should that be 'an old regular of the site under a new identity, disguised as someone whose first language is not English in order to WUM"?!
