That comment was in response to one of yours though: You brought up tax obligations, seemingly out of nowhere. No one else should've built on that with further unfounded speculation or implication, but you absolutely started this line of conversation. If you didn't want to slight him you...

He's done a reasonable job tempering the stupidity and is easily the best lineout operator in the country. Feels like it's his time to return.

Not sure why anyone is speculating about whether or not Uru is meeting his tax obligations for what is fundamentally legitimate income, whether you like or not. It is pretty fucking disappointing to see the suggestion, seemingly out of nowhere, that he might be operating outside the law. Really...

Some, but not all. We'd have to go back through them to know, but I'd wager it was still the leading cause of HIAs, at least amongst the 10s.

Leicester lose a close on in the end and Cheika, somewhat predictably, blows up at the ref: https://www.theroar.com.au/2025/06/15/embarrassing-for-the-game-cheika-fuming-after-premiership-final-loss-im-allowed-to-be-angry/ I understand that he might be angry and emotions are running high after...

Yeah, it's easily the worst for Lynagh and Lolesio, but it feels like it has been a pretty high number of concussions for 10s in general this year. I think we need to be having serious conversations about a) loading towards bans for high tackles that don't merit a red, and b) potentially...

Failed HIA, hopefully just the standard 12 day stand down, but he has had a few recently I think. It's becoming a bit of a worrying trend amongst our 10s.

If we're talking about the player as they were then vs the players as they are now then it's Valetini, McReight and Wilson over Mowen, Hooper and Palu. Valetini > Palu (at least the 2013 model) an established McReight over a near debutant Hooper and an established Wilson absolute beats out a...

I like it because it's a throw back and it's a good design. I think it's worth noting the lower black block rolls into black shorts in a really effective way that creates a pretty good balance between the two country's colours, and a very slick effect for the whole kit. Personally I don't mind...

Colonel copped a proper sniper in the halftime race, he was away to an unassailable lead an just fell off for the last ~50.

8 & 6, but the point very much still stands

Au NZ jersey is an 89 throwback and it's pretty good: https://www.smh.com.au/sport/rugby-union/bash-them-the-anzac-team-tasked-with-softening-up-lions-for-wallabies-20250612-p5m6yb.html I'm hoping the release a cotton supporters jersey but I'm not holding my breath.

It's a team sport, one team being "demonstrably worse" than another does not mean man for man worse.

It's a real pity those opta stats don't go back to previous seasons, their % offloads leading to a line break/try/either are so much more useful for judging the effectiveness of an offload game then shear numbers. Same for their maul metres and maul trys per game.

Not on the concussion, but apparently he fractured his finger in that game: https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/sport/rugby-union/bash-them-the-anzac-team-tasked-with-softening-up-lions-for-wallabies-20250612-p5m6yb.html
