There’s some real hot takes this week…

I think they now know… https://www.theage.com.au/sport/rugby-union/mckellar-set-to-be-named-new-waratahs-coach-20240703-p5jqr5.html

Except that he chose to leave before the squad was announced, and apparently was wanted by RA and Schmidt...

I think that was the joke Derpus was trying to make... But he also lives in Sydney, and I'm pretty sure all the bars that don't have pokies close at 6pm. :(

I'm not sure if Wilson, who isn't guaranteed of selection, and currently not in the squad, would be a better captain, than the captain of his SRP (Super Rugby Pacific) team...

Pretty much... he recently said that he likely wouldn't know what his best team was until the spring tour. I think we'll see lots of tinkering over this series especially. It's a very green looking team, and will certainly benefit with the likes of Ikitau, and hopefully Bell, coming back in.

Feliuai is definitely the one the Brumbies need... and where RA would probably like him to end up with the other teams covered at inside centre. On one hand I feel Tupou could follow Slipper's path to the Brumbies, prolong his career by largely coming off the bench and being in a place where...

It's got to be a boost for their chances of signing some of those top Rebels players who were hesitant on going to Sydney...

Two quality coaching appointments... I have mixed emotions.

To be fair... Gill was unfortunately the David Croft of his generation, stuck behind two world class opensides.

Apparently the top up wasn't an issue... he didn't want to be away from his young family on tour: https://www.smh.com.au/sport/rugby-union/ben-mowens-exit-set-to-come-at-heavy-cost-20140109-30kha.html

On top of that Kuridrani was suspended for a spear tackle against Ireland, so they ran out with a slightly understrength team with Lilo playing outside centre... but still beat Scotland. And AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)'s mum wasn't happy.

England also had a controversial try awarded, with what would these days be usually picked up by the TMO as obstruction... But the Wobs overall looked pretty sharp on that tour.

His run as captain lasted five games on the spring tour...

Everybody calm down... It turns out the media misinterpreted the leak regarding Wright being named captain.

Sounds... personal.
