    Lolesio is almost exactly the same age now as when Foley made his starting test debut at 10 against that France c side in 2014. Lolesio has 25 tests under his belt.i spose the question is has playing him that much that early made him a better player? Or are we better off waiting until our...

    Argentina v Australia, 8am Sunday 1 Sep (AEST) - TRC Round 3

    Liam Wright is the classic example of someone whose stocks have improved massively by simply not playing any relevant minutes at test match level while the rest of the team gets stomped

    I have kids at the right age to be influenced by this. It's been incredible to watch There are more girls signed up to the soccer club than boys now, and it's flowing over into cricket as well off the back of the good work that sport has done. AFL getting a bit of a bump in a non-traditional...

    Waratahs 2025

    There is quantitative research done on this, using gps trackers etc. Distance run and events in each game (number of rucks etc) is relatively the same at semi-pro club, pro level and international level. What changes is the speeds and forces get higher, and the top speeds and highest forces...

    That's the benefit of having the Tillies doing well. Twice as many games to sell. RA average around 7 games that matter to FTA TV a year. And at the moment the Matildas pull much higher ratings than the Wobs do. The figure is secret because a) it's made up, or b) it's made up of lots of in...

    Shute Shield 2024

    A lot of this highlights are against Manly, and Parramatta. Given how often Randwick played in SS GF against those teams in period I'd say plenty of the highlights are from finals

    Argentina v Australia, 8am Sunday 1 Sep (AEST) - TRC Round 3

    We had that brief shining light in 2021 when QC (Quade Cooper) and Kerevi were both fit and won 4 on the trot. (May be because the other teams were unfit because of Covid)

    I get where Phipps is coming from here, but it's pretty funny to see Paisami described as a "big boy"

    This is just a function of our federated system. Nucifora wants the state unions pro setups to vote themselves out of existence. The states voted down Nucifora's proposal in 2012, and again last year, taking down RA's chairman along with the vote. It's taken them reaching the point of...
