This has struck me as something very notable about the recent departures - it's not to say we haven't (mostly) had amicable separations in the past, but I've felt most of the messaging recently has been supportive of players wanting to explore other opportunities. It's nice to see some sense and...

Cash aside, it makes you think whether the young guys you mentioned feel like they've achieved all they reasonably expect to in Union, and recognise that the Wallabies are not on a trajectory for greater success (e.g., winning a World Cup, Bledisloe, etc.). As you say, pretty grim.

It’s pretty clear that there’s nothing to announce yet, but that he’s on the way out. Les’ most recent statement obviously implies as much - not sure what more of an answer you could expect.

Well this is something

and if my mother had wheels she would've been a bicycle

ahh, the follies of pattern analysis

The pattern is actually Disaster followed by 2x OK - so, by your figures, we're coming up to an OK. Thanks for the cutting edge analysis.

It's surprised me, and it's still early days, but I think Wilson's actually doing as good a job of captaincy, if not better, than Wright - and I hold Wright in very, very high regard. It's been great to see him make the step, both in his game and the shouldered responsibility

It would also be in case an outside back has to withdraw at late notice - arguably more important.

Good pickup - very low key way to announce the departure of a guy who's been around for several seasons

Poor option, but the hole was there for Bobby V to run an unders

White didn’t even make an effort to stop that - literally slapping Jordan on the shoulder. Hookable offence 90sec in

Wilso definitely passes the ‘the captain should sign the anthem loudest’ test

I hope he gets a run next year purely so I can hear Justin Harrison have a crack at his name

Given the time, I legitimately thought this one was in NZ until just now. I'm not Syd based, but I feel the marketing has been absolutely abysmal.

At this point, I think it's more a case of Pasitoa owing it to the Force.

Although Wilson wasn't in the team at that stage

I don't recall if he was ever Brums academy, but I do know he was a bee's dick away from signing with them when he was last off contract, after the Reds didn't table an offer until very late in the process. Preference was, and I believe still is, to stay in BNE.
