It's good to see that my observations on Heeno's speech regarding UQ's sense of disinterest in the club is echoed by your response. However, as the parent of a state and national representative player who unsuccessfully applied for a scholarship and still studied at Bond, I can attest that...

A solid set of points there. However, there is a key difference - pointed out by Heeno during his speech at Bond's awards night - in that there is good, solid support for the club in the higher echelons of the university. Unlike UQ, Bond's heaviest rugby advocates are within those echelons. Tim...

10 or 15. The ONLY position for pretty boys.

...that pretty boy can play the heck out of a guitar! So he'd be a shoe in for post-game singalongs.....and that is where it ends.

I definitely appreciate the feedback, but I can only relate, and quote, what I have heard firsthand from Bond coaching staff and first grade players. There is no playing of 'overlooked genius' cards - or 'conspiracies of ignorance'. I write it as they say it, and it is what it is. I do form an...

Great point. Good food for thought....and I took the 'KU' signing to be Karl Urban.... but your suggestion makes much better sense...only just!

As a result of direct conversations with Bond players and coaching staff, I can say that there is a solid acceptance that the general QLD-based rugby public - and especially those on this particular forum - tend not to rate the club, its coaches or its wider playing stock as anything significant...

The Bullsharks would welcome the ex-Maleny Bushranger with open arms!!

The solid talk in play that both Kohan Herbert and Matt Gicquel are hopefuls to join the club in 2026, with the citing of proximity to home/work as key reasons. Time will tell.

Mate, that is 720% better (approximately). I'm happy to read your reasons and respect your opinions. That is proper discourse. But is difficult to do so when you apply a blanket word to a post that was one person's observation of a specific circumstance. It wasn't an Australian Financial Review...

Nothing like laughing off facts when they hit too close to home. Hilarity: the last refuge of the cornered

So inspiring when someone posts ‘no reason to come back’… by literally coming back to say it

Dude, these flogs are too interested in reading 'rumours' and 'word has it' bullshit than bothering to read anything of substance.

Summary: Wests, Easts and Brothers went on the field as favourites; left the field as Bond highlight reels.

The fact you'd rather belittle an actual account of the speech that Heeno gave, rather than properly acknowledge the content...says more about your absolute disdain toward a team that made you look stupid than it does your ACTUAL interest in the game, the winning coach, OR the winning club. . No...
