The Tahs would be fine on the loosehead side if Lambert was fit. Not that I think he's an amazing player, but he has the experience and physical conditioning to back up Bell alongside Thompson-Stringer.

I think a question like this suggests you've not understood the discussion at hand.

This I think primarily refers to the small number of situations where a trained front rower may play in another position. Glasgow and ex-Scotland Hooker Fraser Brown for example has played a number of games at 7 for both teams, and this would allow him to play in the front row even if he wasn't...

Fair enough. All those seasons kind of blur into each other and 2022 was probably the season I paid least attention to honestly, I worked basically every weekend in that period. But I think most weeks is the key. There will be games where the appropriate thing to do is play your number 1 for...

in the 22/23 season Dan Cole played 25 times over 36 game weeks: 20 games for Leicester averaging 57 minutes in his 17 starts and 29 minutes in his three bench appearances. He also played 5 times from the bench in the 6 Nations averaging 19 minutes. In 21/22, he played 26 times over 39 game...

My recollection was that in 20 & 21 he was played fairly normally (sometimes 50 minutes, sometimes 65 or a little more, depending on the opposition) and then in '22 Thorn went balls to the wall playing him ~70 minutes each game. I don't have the stats to back that up, but given the impacted...

Professional contracts overseas will 100% be a dealbreaker for continuous residency.

I'm curious as to how you'd envisage that type of model working.

When was the last Aus to Aus transfer that happened in the middle of a Super season?

If Pone is still slimming down I could see an expansion team giving him a punt as a League Prop.

The players should do what's best for the players. I think Carter, Gibbo and Rob have a lot to give to the Canary jersey and would be sad to see them leave. Everyone else should be looking at a combo of what's best for my career and my family, and shouldn't be judged for either taking unders...

Sky Blue tinted glasses I'm afraid

HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes) is just Aldi brand Ben Alexander, this is his level, don't ever expect more from him than a few big carries and holding his own against the bottom 30% of looseheads.

Barrett was a genuine liability for the Tahs. But unless you were gonna find some pot plant from the SS, starting him was the right thing to do. He'll be better long term for the run out, just needs another 2 preseasons.

Darby is cap 207 and we would have about 30-35 blokes who never actually got capped through things like injury. Just an absurd amount of turnover in 15 years.

Poor Woodward. He chased his ABs dream, and that's admirable, but choosing to go home to the Canes when they had back 3 players options consisting of Julian Savea, Corey Jane, Milner-Skudder and James Marshall, before you even consider Nonu and Smith were keeping the likes of Matty Proctor and...

Kev suggesting Proctor likely returning for next match. Great news, particularly given Strachany's injury looks serious and Kells MIA.
