I have no issue with the ATO going after the directors but equally RA has to be held accountable for the mess that they contributed to

That is subjective. Obviously it was the same opinion shared by the ARU at the time

There was interested when super rugby was formed of being the third side and when the force got in there was the VRU bid and a private bid that both got rejected

Two bids from the VRU but there had been separate private bids to get a team into Melbourne.

100% @RugbyReg had a laugh at me when I mentioned it post game now he has a 3 week ban

The RA has killed the game here. Simple as that. Why should anyone in Melbourne care about RA or the Wallabies into 25 if we have no team? Why support a national team that actively seeks to exclude us from the sport? RA rejected multiple bids to join the league we had to fight tooth and nail...

They have already had to use to law to ensure the club survived in 17. Why would they trust RA? Also don’t pretend to be sympathetic be honest you have been dancing on their grave since the reports first came out. At least own it The deal gives them the right to take action, sure but should...

So they aren’t going to be taking action unless they get shut down.

They are only going to take legal action if they get shut down. So if it comes to that, then that’s on RA

Yeah an interview with him said Korda was preparing a several hundred page document. But then another article says a 100 page document has been provided

I agree with you, I think also with 5 teams now possibly 4 it is harder for young lads. With the amount of players needed for 28 pro sides say in France there would be a greater blend between youth and experience.

It’s the lawyers who are pushing for legal action. They have a better understanding of what has gone on than any of us. I hope they take RA to the cleaners

Because they have already gutted the Tahs to fit the rebels squad in there. That’s why, RA has made their mind up. I doubt they will even look at the plan

This is probably the biggest area of concern, how many Aussie players flop in Super Rugby go off shore and improve? It’s seems to be a semi regular occurrence. For mine it comes down to the season length overseas, our season is too short but also the level of coaching overseas

Personally I hope the legal action goes ahead and holds RA to account

Na just vote against a deal that is going to provide funding to a club until 2030. Lose all the money that the Vic government pays for rugby events sounds like a real winner. RA has always driven the agenda to wind the rebels up

Been reported that RA is meeting with the players asking where they want to play next year. There is a fair conflict of interest, the administrator advised taking the deal, the deal was voted for by the creditors. While people complain about the lack of detail in the plan it has been reported...

Rugby getting a foothold in the west would help the game big time as that’s were most of the league clubs are

I take it you failed to read the article than champ

Yeah in NSW it is as it blocks participation in grade cricket. NSW has always historically had the strongest club competition and has been the most successful state
