    For a kid that was a second string halfback (behind Matt Henjak) as a junior player, to then redefine his career as a 2nd 5 and also a 1st 5, I take my hat off to him. He did have a few injuries over the years, but overall his longevity has been pretty remarkable.

    It's a racing industry phrase.

    Maybe "the horse guy" has infiltrated ARU after all...

    It's been used in the NRL for years (even before the actual horse racing guy became boss of the comp).

    I just thought it was an Aussie way to hype a youngster up.

    Brumbies fans are bewildered by this. In their minds Laurie is the bestest coach ever.

    Doesn't matter though. Eddie is the head coach and he changes assistants as often as undies. Pretty sure he was like that when he was Brumbies coach too so the fans shouldn't be bewildered at all

    You don't understand the size of the chip they carry. Reminiscent of Atlas' punishment.
