    Melbourne Rebels Players - where are they going?

    I've not heard anything from either end recently, but Sione was confident Ottavio would be coming North back during the Six Nations.

    Cynically a Dead Rebels also probably secures the Brumbies future for at least the rest of the decade.

    Rugby is hard to get right. The difficult thing is that they're not just looking for some sort of domestic angle, but active participation in a foreign structure. I understand a Pontypridd fan has no reason to love the Dragons or Cardiff, but is there actually more value to anyone involved when...

    Wallabies 2024

    RA contracting period is November-October. If you let a player go "today", 4 months of their wages is off the books.

    My understanding is that In Ireland there was always some credence to the idea that the Provinces being a natural extension of Elite Rugby in Ireland: I believe at the point of professionalism taking place the 4 teams were in essence identical to the state unions over here in Australia...

    I think it's a RugbyPass Broadcast everywhere but NZ and South Africa?

    Fuck I love Reddit sometimes. Makes this place look sane by comparison.

    Waratahs 2025

    For all the other rumours, my understanding was one of Canham's conditions for staying (at least at some point) was continuing to play with LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto). That may have changed in the interim, but overall it's not necessarily positive signs for LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) being anywhere but Brisbane.

    Imports should be sensible for the state of the Wallabies player pool as a whole and individual squads. Props for example you probably don't want more than 2 on each side across the 4 franchises who are imports: in an ideal world some of those are Thompson-Stringer types as well, where it's an...

    With zero inside word, I could imagine that the Tahs are likely interested in him, but between him not actually having a 2025 contract in place (to my knowledge) and not being a PONI like Kellaway was, they can't actually make a formal offer until they know what their other salary obligations...

    Aren't they both contracted for Super Sides in 2025? I'm not sure what the Top League contracting period is, but surely it's entirely feasible that those contracts have concluded and they're NZRU signed players again?

    Celebrating the Rebels

    IDK what broadcast is available but this is Shota's last game of pro rugby to my understanding. Hoping all goes well.
