But the point Nonu was making is, the quality of the competition is higher than Super Rugby i.e. has the "best internationals" spread across the teams. But, it doesn't apear to have translated to any meaningful success outside of that competition as those same players especially at a French...

How did they go for the French though? It was the second most embarrassing thing to happen at last year's world cup (the first being Australia not making out of the pool stages). Imagine bowing out at your home world cup in the quarters!! (I can see the egg on my face in a few years don't you...

$200 for 14 x 1 hour sessions is pretty good value (even better if you take $30-50 for the kit). I pay $24 a 20 minute swim lesson and previously paid $78 a month for "Little kickers" which was 45 minutes of kicking a soccer ball. For anyone shocked at these costs, I would suggest you speak to...

I know I had a few rum and cokes, but suncorp was pretty bloody full for the Reds and Brumbies final and then again when the French turned up.

What's happened to Hodgman? Fairly sure I saw him warming up on Friday evening? Aubrey and Annan are pretty light in the backs especially against some big bodies the Fijians have.

Well, Leigh Halfpenney and Carter Gordon both shanked sitters on the weekend, so one could argue that Gordon is kicking as well as a test level goal kicker!

Australian's have been saying this for a decade about Penney!

Nicely put Strewth and paints a clear picture here. If we compeltely take out the Foundation money and try and compare Apples to Apples, is the $440k being paid to Sua'ali'i really that bad compared to the other options we have in positions he might play? I'm speculating this $440k is more than...

Honestly, you could put every team into a cup-final and I wouldn't be phased. It is absolutely depressing when Super Rugby is done by May (if you don't make the finals) and there's still another 3+ months of NRL/AFL. Hell, mirror what the football code does, after X amount of rounds, whoever is...

Guessing he's got a plate. You'd be thinking he'd be lucky to be back in 6 weeks and I've got no idea if they have to take the plate out before he can play i.e. another 2 weeks on top of the bones healing. Hopefully Cormac isn't far off returning to allow Uru to go to 8.

Considering how suspect Kellaway is at defending at 15, there is a very real possibility we could see both Gordon and Donaldson on the field at the same time.

I must have been in dreamland when I watched a segment with Willie Nelson complaining about the turn out to Accor this week with sub 8,00 turning out. Maybe the rum and cokes went to my head as I listened to triple m call the last 15 minutes of the Broncos game where they stopped calling the...

It was the same with Kellaway. Only reason why he went off is the independent doc watching the screens on the side line pulled the game officials aside and told them Kellaway needed to be checked. Unsure why it's not standard for anyone who received a head knock to warrant a card isn't off to...

It seems that injuries start to take their toll around now. Vest is a significant downgrade on Cormac and Blyth who were the replacement second rows. That kick off miss by Connor put us in a silly position for unnecessary pressure. Losing Henry and Petaia's in the centres means you have a...

4-6 weeks depending on the break.

Christ, what's with New Zealand constantly sending us the dregs.

Wild to see the Waratahs had 3 10's over the last two years and they some how retained the 3rd choice.

You watch, if the B&IL tour gets decided by a game where an early red card is given and the B&IL lose, it'll be changed a day later.

I mean, last year people were entertaining the idea of putting Langi Gleeson at 7......

Biggest concern I have with Kellaway being named as captain is, he has missed a fair chunk of rugby over the last couple of seasons. There's a very real risk he could have another lengthy period off. It's quite interesting seeing where people are naming our potential captain from ie from the...
