Canada was quite sloppy in the first half. Better in the second and got ahead 17-3. I really don't know why this game was in North Wales. Just send Namibia to Toronto to play. Ditto Samoa instead of a town outside Nantes. We have better facilities and it's just an extra 5 hour flight from London.

To My knowledge the nrc crowds have been fairly decent. A couple games below expectations but quite a few above. Average would have to be around 2,000 a game? I'd be very surprised if the aru expected more than that. I know the rebels are getting a little more than they thought they would. The...

Seems to be some bad reporting by Fairfax. I understand that the rights were $25m a year and are going to $40m a year which is a massive increase albeit from a low base. The only disappointing thing is that FTA didn't bid tho they are showing the wallabies which seems to be all anyone cares...

Beale can take the high ball but he can't take a contested or pressures high ball with any consistency. As I recall he tends to take it too far off his chest and corral it back in which of course is a bit more difficult. Tho folau seems quite capable. Personally i agree with Dwyer and would...

i am very weary of anyone suggesting pocock will be at the next world cup. after two knee reco's i think the odds are against him to be honest. he can come back from the time off and get back to top standard, i do not doubt that, but i think the nature of his injuries will be the factor. i don't...

actually i was at a game last weekend. they have a lot of their old fans. they have climbed up from D grade or something to be middle of the pack in VAFA a-grade and still play at the old stadium in north fitzroy which has a great atmosphere. there is an excellent collection of old lions fans at...

the tackle in league and resetting of play takes just as long as your average ruck if not longer in the instance of quick ball and some nz rucks we saw on the weekend. what would you rather see, an actual contest of physical strength and power (ruck) or some jackass writhing around on the...

on this whole 'brisbane pulls 40k so sydney should pull 100k" let's keep things in perspective. Sydney has 12 professional teams covering the main winter codes (excluding soccer). these teams are relatively well dispersed throughout the main populations of sydney. that works out to 1...

i don't like your answer. i was liking the fact you answered.

anyone know whether the final would be at ANZ or Allianz if the Tahs win this week?

can someone confirm whether the final (if the waratahs win this week) will be at allianz or ANZ?

that's a big loss. not just for on field performance but his following more broadly. i know afl followers here who know and love the badge despite not normally watching much rugby. hopefully he heads back to the force for super rugby as well...?

according to the australian today it is down to two bids one from singapore and one from japan another non-asian bid was excluded. my guess is there were three serious bids (above) and now narrowed to two. apparently south africa wanted a 7th i personally think that wouldn't have been a horrible...

Are Melbourne rising games at AAMI?

Yes. Some of the aru rules are not particularly productive. Hopefully we get it for him. We clearly have it for tamati. Blorg. Two more games. Turning focus to Tahs now. At least I'm excited for the NRC

He shouldn't be leaving. We have the Japanese allowance and the other international allowances. With Woodward and aholeiei going who else do we have that isn't currently wallaby qualified. Sau ellison and horie? Hopefully he stays. He has become a legitimate great player with time Down here. Let...

b.c place has a retractable roof so it could be played there in winter. kicker will be that b.c place has turf, albeit the best grade. IRB has allowed some u-20 and america's championship games on turf. we'll see, but time of year is not a problem in van.
