Without all Internationals really, Irish are in 6N camp, All Blacks are resting and Saffas are injured

I met my wife at the pub before a rising game, so at least she understands as her first experience meeting me was as a drunk rugby supporter. Doubt she realized it would mean lots of late nights early mornings for me watching Munster and Ireland though.

It takes two problems and merges them into one. A Pacifica team in Melbourne actually makes more sense then Auckland, I still think I would find it hard to jump onboard as a supporter. I would watch with interest and attend the odd game maybe, I wouldn't be a member and I defiantly would not be...

The Lions tour would be the biggest reason behind that, Vic government would be making sure those two games are sorted first and foremost. Glad they don't plan on dragging it out, can't bare the thought of another 2017.

They would be in the premiership if it wasn't for there stadium capacity. Jordy went to Gloucester for a couple of seasons and returned to Earling this year. They have a pretty good squad and will probably win the league and get denied promotion again.

They were, but they would have been manageable if done right. No more then 2 games in a row in crazy time slots.

The annoying thing with the expansion to 18 18 teams, was it had potential until they made the whole draw a cluster fuck. 4 pools and two promised spots for SA teams in finals. If they had just added the 3 teams with one in each pool and not changed the structure to much it could have worked.

I thought the Six nations one has been a bit of a let down, Full Swing was amazing so I had high hopes. Although depending on how much access the Wallabies one had it might actually be really good watching, even as a Irish fan I was disappointed in the Wallabies world cup but getting the players...

I agree with everything except for the part about women's game, you will find that is running at even because of the amount of Money the government is contributing to women's sport.

Dropping a side will reduce the TV revenue by more then 20% for content, will open up Sanzar and NZFU lawsuit as RA have agreed to 5 teams until 2030.

Well before the shit hit the fan last week, I was talked to someone who's been involved with the Rebels for over 5 years now and asked him about it. Was literally Thursday morning, his comment was it's all the same BS. The whole time his been involved in the club they had been in debt and it was...

Just checked the daily news results, not a mention of the Rebels. Makes me doubt any of the articles so far. Seems Paul Docherty is now being accusing of stealing money from all these businesses now as well, behind a pay walk so can't read that one.

If they got horrible news that effected there's and family's future they would be taking the day off to sort stuff. They would not be smashing each other for the sake of a future gig elsewhere.

Absolutely nothing, don't own any of the training facilities.

So latest news is the Rebels deny VA, if they were in VA I doubt the players would have trained today.

I don't agree with 5 teams being to much for Australia, Ireland have 4 teams with a population of 5 million people. Rugby is also 4th most popular sport like Australia, it's poorly managed at the top. That's where the issue starts, then tiny season meaning clubs can never gain traction or...

Plenty of room, but his dog would lick you to death

Well hopefully that's coming to a end as well

RA would love that, pic up the Rebels license for 10 cents on the dollar.
