    Western Force 2025

    Stewart is EXACTLY the sort of second fly I want sitting outside of a necessary but uninspiring 10. He can run 10 himself comfortably (if he focused more on the game plan than D) and can definitely run a second wave back line attack. Heaps of starch in D which you kind of want at international...

    I doubt we are going to see any huge changes in focus on 10 rather than 9. This is three games in with a new squad, new coach, and it is well too soon for major developments in game plan. Expect incremental development, focused on what the Springboks bring and how to play against it.

    Western Force 2025

    It is distorted by the RA top up - especially where they skew from even distribution. It distorts talent distribution and it distorts the marketplace as to who get's to spend more on players.

    Queensland Reds 2025

    Rotation can surely help with building experience. In this case though, I have to agree that the squad seems oversized and puts at threat some players who we likely would have continued developing with will ultimately need to find new homes. Many of these ex-Rebel are more or less returning...

    I came across Zane Nonggorr recently. Hard not to stare, such a huge human. Looked like he could throw a cow over his shoulder then casually jog around the paddock to catch a second and balance the load. Go well Wallabies.

    EDIT I'm having trouble with the link, here it is long hand: https://rawling.github.io/WR (World Rugby) (World Rugby) (World Rugby) (World Rugby) (World Rugby)-calc/?s=mru Click "MRU" at the top for mens.

    1: South Africa 93.11 3: New Zealand 90.37 7: Argentina 81.64 9: Australia 78.96 We are literally underdogs in this fight including Argentina. The warm ups vs Wales and Georgia were a fantastic way to set a platform and start a new platform forward, but it is another thing altogether to shape...

    I was going to add Lilo, actually, but thought it might be seen as pushing too hard. I can only agree though Slim.

    I doubt Qld can afford him, even with top up. Sydney is a great home for him, wish them all the best.

    I think that the selections we have available, and likely to select, no longer make a big impediment on bringing Big Will back. I don't know his form, or his desire, but I do think he is a serious option in 2024.

    Tonga vs Reds, 12:30pm Friday 26/7 @ Teufaiva Sports Stadium

    HIA and hopefully JOC (James O'Connor) will be fine. Counterbalance was Jock at 10. Very positive.

    Thoroughly enjoyed that. Hats off to Tonga, thanks heaps for the opportunity.

    It doesn't matter. They just have such great attitude. Love it. I don't mind this ref either, though keep away from any more cards. We want 15 on 15.

    That schoolgirl at half time dancing was brat. EDIT: there does not seem to be a lime-green background on offer.

    Can we get Stan to take on these commentators?

    Western Force 2025

    God help me but my memory is different. I'd take a BPA (in the form he was before leaving) back at the Reds in a heart beat and back him for Gold. It has taken us some time to learn the lesson about throws being a basic hooker skill and while I Faessler has this nailed toan international level...

    Reds management/Admin doing great things. Got to take your hat off. Thanks Reds.

    Bigger, stronger, taller, Wallaby. NSW-man. OK I agree with your premise. It's irrelevant to my point though. Skel could very well play on for quite some time.
