lol yeah fair play I’ll cop that one. I’m not a fan but not every muppet gets over 100 games. Nice meme.

Was a bit to take away. advertisers may not like it but I love a full stadium in the afternoon. A real mix of ages in the crowd as well, was great. I thought we actually looked good with ball in hand but did not respect opposition enough and pushed a lot of passes. On another day we could have...

Their defence in the backs is poor. Just fking run it

Jacques in Opens squad, he has potential to go all the way. Reminds me a little of Ben Tune, pace and swerve.

I hope someone up the food chain takes a shine to Marshall. Not big enough but fk it, an amazing 7. If he stays injury free and bulks up could be one of the best ever. From not a Shore fan.

There goes our world rankings if so even if I agree. Stewart is barely a super rugby player. Len getting injured would hurt, a lot.

“The tournament will be contested across six pools of four teams, with the seedings for those pools to be determined ahead of the draw. The top two teams in each pool, plus the four highest ranked third-placed teams, will then progress to a newly created Round of 16. The tournament will then...

while most will agree JAS has plenty more upside I still think he has been fantastic. He's straightened opposition defensive lines and more space has been created for the outside backs. Also Len is good but the superlatives attributed to his 13 play are sometimes a long bow. They're an excellent...

I'll really rate Fonua's smarts and work rate. Not the absolute impact beast of a Lemota but over 80 minutes will bring a hell of a lot more. A lot of these guys suffer from that "in between" physique and unfortunately at the absolute top, size matters (unlike you're a freak like Ardie).

I enjoy visiting the ISA forum, insightful and balanced with limited muppet factor. I wouldn’t get bogged in ranking across the associations. ISA is fantastic as both a development and top tier rugby factory. GPS has the greatest depth albeit shrinking and relies on the ISA nursery. CAS is...

They’ll play Fowler but Risati will be the better adult player, most likely in the wrong code though.

I look forward to the likes of Tancred and Cleary getting stuck into their more illustrious counterparts.

Probably more their retention program to be fair. Have just had two ex students in year 11 named in Aus u18 which is no mean feat.

None of the 10s are shooting the lights out unfortunately. I do like JOCs strength as a ball carrier compared to his peers and he attracts more defenders as a result. I’m not a fan of Loleiso and his unfortunate injury has been timely to test the alternatives two years out from the WC. We now...

Good day out for Augustine’s, congrats. Nice to see CCGS on the up.
