Ahhh it's a tough gig LB especially with a long term injury, I can imagine the first few months were a bit hard mentally. Add in he's just had a kid and I can't fault him for any weight increase. Unless he can swim, it's bloody hard to fit in cardio as a big rig with a busted leg. Those...

Odd to mention Carter Gordon's goal kicking ability but have Quade as our number 1. That SA game where he slotted 100% is the exception and not the norm. He was hovering around the 70's% last time he played in Australia wasn't he?

There's something so satisfying watching Akira and Reiko lose.

But RA isn't spending their money, it's money gifted for a specific reason. It's identical to Universities and endowments.

Keep Phil Blake after that. Goddamn where has this team been all year. Excellent defence, can't believe how lack lustre the chiefs attack looked.

Dan, NZRU in recent years have demonstrated an inability to act in good faith with their business partners. Hell, they can't even act properly with their coaches and had to drastically avert a crisis of losing Robertson by appointing him while a coach is still there and could still win a WC and...

The kiwis will turn around and justifiably ask for more of the tv/streaming rights because they have more games. As a result, you'll have a greater divide between Aus and NZ in terms of player development and financial. 5 Kiwis 5 Australian 5 Japanese 1 Fijian 1 Combined PI There's roughly 26...

More games leading up to super? As in playing rugby in summer? I'd rather we extend the season to mirror NRL and afl of starting in March and finishing in August. Break for three weeks in the middle for the autumn matches. Then September is quad nations before going to Europe for eoyt. The...

Looks similar to the disallowed try last weekend against the Force with Wilson in the maul......

You'd imagine it'll be fine with no-one playing on it for two weeks or so. Just a bit crap teh Broncos play Thursday night and the Reds play Friday.

You mean the pre-season training competition that was run in the middle of February in Brisbane where the temps were so hot that the organisers had to ship misting fans in and allow everyone on the eastern stand to move to the western one. Somehow you can then compare that to an autumn day...

You'll have to expand the logic for me, as you've lost me. Does that logic change if I work in a pretty niche field where there's sub 1-2 professional rugby teams worth of people in Australia?

On the other side of it, I'd just roll out the Argentina games and ask, what makes them think they deserve a pay increase? Every performance review I have in the corporate world, I have to demonstrate how I met my yearly KPI's and exceeded them. Unsure how a hopeless win record helps their...

After watching Demetriou be crossed examined at the Crown casino inquiry and fail spectacularly, absolutely no way he should be brought in.

Given how injury prone Foketi, Perese and Hunter have been over the last few years. I wouldn't be wasting a spot on them just yet, you'd be hard press to not give it to a Hodge or JOC (James O'Connor) who cover the 10/12 channel for you.

Sigh, Phil Waugh. Seriously? Another banker running RA? I've seen that show twice before. Give us someone who actually has experience managing in a sporting organisation not the financial sector.

Dunno where you're pulling this bias card from the Ref. The Force were lucky to not have someone binned in the repeated penalties for scrums, late in the second half, after the two obstruction calls, Jock was pushed out of the way as he tried to make a tackle on the chase. The Wilson...

I thought he signed at the Rebels when his brother did?

Unsure if anyone else heard on the ground, but, that was one of the more vocal matches I've heard from the players in defence. Don't think I've heard that much chatter from the team in the last couple of years. Biggest thing that stood out was, the Force weren't contesting the breakdown yet...

Haven't had the chance to watch the game yet. But, couldn't have Wright just stopped the quick throw by forming a line out like everyone else does?
