    Queensland Reds 2025

    Sounds like Tonga might be a fair but stronger this year too, should be a great hit out:

    Refereeing decisions

    This is one of them that's not quite 5m, but is well in advance of the mark (36:19 on the match clock): https://x.com/bensmithrugby/status/1949711883931672829 This is the other (about 62:00 on the match clock) https://x.com/RugbyBits/status/1950152475454943308 It's a bit hard to see in the...

    Refereeing decisions

    Just for a bit of clarity around the mouth guard/HIA, Tizzano did undergo an HIA but was cleared: https://www.theroar.com.au/2025/07/30/emotional-damage-schmidt-reveals-high-magnitude-impact-from-tizzano-hit-says-wallabies-face-mental-challenge/

    NZ Domestic comps

    Had a quick flick through the NPC squads (couldn't find a squad listing for Wellington) looking for Australian/Australian Super Aligned players this year: This is a big drop back from last year, only half as many players, with Harford the only player who clearly has an ongoing contract with an...

    Refereeing decisions

    Did he say that it didn't trigger an HIA or did he just not say whether or not it triggered an HIA?

    Wallabies v Lions - 3rd Test, Accor Stadium, Saturday 2 August

    I don't think they ever called him into the squad, so it seems very unlikely he'll be rushed into the side. I think his time will come in the rugby championship, particularly if Skelton isn't there.

    That's a bit greedy, don't you think?

    Wallabies v Lions - 3rd Test, Accor Stadium, Saturday 2 August

    I mostly agree, but between injuries to Potter, Ala'alatoa, possibly Valetini, Tizzano and Slipper, and a likely reversion to a 5-3 bench I think we're looking at more than 3 changes

    RWC 2027 Australia

    Yeah, it's much more appetizing if you can offset the cost by going in with mates, possibly ideal if you do it with friends across cities. I have a feeling the 2027 of them will go pretty quickly though, even at $750 a pop

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    No, and we almost certainly won't get them. They might talk about series numbers in aggregate after the fact, but they rarely (if ever) give out numbers for individual games.

    Wallabies v Lions - 3rd Test, Accor Stadium, Saturday 2 August

    Right, that's the one covering it now. As much as the back 3 need to get back quickly, the real change for us then is probably having a couple of the forwards who are positioned on the 10 for the kick off take their time coming back to prevent a kick off until the rest of the team is set.

    Wallabies v Lions - 3rd Test, Accor Stadium, Saturday 2 August

    It's good heads up play from the Lions, but I thought you couldn't kick off quickly like this when using a different ball from the one used for the penalty (or conversion)? I haven't been able to find the laws governing it but I thought it was part of the ball laws (section 2) and something...
