    Australia vs British and Irish Lions - 1st Test (Brisbane)

    but that's to be expected from a reds fan (jk). great squad in my opinion. Cully reporting Beale is on the bench which probably also includes Phipps and McCabe in the backs. fwds from slipper, faainga, Sio, simmons, gill?

    also told said player had every right to be the drunkest man on earth given how much he was drinking, but managed to be quite well behaved.

    Rebels 2014

    no. it was a current rebel. i gathered, or i should say my mate gathered, the ARU was weary of the talent spreading thin or something of the sort and that the tahs saw foley as their 10 and did not want JOC (James O'Connor) or beale for that role. tahs were upset about rebels ability to offer more cash and...

    Rebels 2014

    a good mate of mine was at a do up in sydney over the weekend and got chatting to superb melbourne rebels player who was pounding the beers and tequila back like no tomorrow. by all accounts a great guy who had the following points to make: - Rebels wanted Foley massively and paid to get him -...

    I honestly don't think it is that important. You can make that excuse all the time. Rugby champ is too important. Not a bledisloe, next year is too soon before a World Cup, we have to get our combos right. Besides there is a game against Italy is there not? Fact is you need to keep that depth...

    The Awful Truth About The ARU's Financial Position

    totally agree re a japanese team. i think a new SA team will go in and NZ and AUS will request that a japanese team goes in. NZ playing a game there. tanaka and horie coming down - it all spells a focus on japan. time zone works almost ideally as well for both countries.

    normally i would agree but when the season goes super rugby from february, lions tests, super rugby and finals, barely a break and then RC and then, what 2 weeks break till the fall tour, it is too much for all players. bodies need breaks and it has to be looked at and considered in the...

    haha (laughing at how i think my own comments are funny and how i forgot i wrote them) onwards and upwards. since the team for the lions is done and there isn't much super rugby between now and the RC who do we like for call ups? To'omua Pyle Godwin are my three favourites. i think there is...

    Brumbies v British & Irish Lions Tuesday 18 June 2013

    not many went to newcastle though did they? most supporters arrived yesterday i thought. i think brumbies are the best chance of an upset. still such a strong backline.

    by seeing if there's more info to compare so i may, as requested, make a more informed comment than my previous one? KB (Kurtley Beale)'s played a handful of games this year and most of them when the rebels were an absolute mess defensively across the backline, so i think looking at a broader set of stats...

    he should be able to do it though....and i would say that if a big fella runs at him, it is his job to bring him down

    does slipping and falling over backwards onto your ass count as an attempted tackle and therefore a missed one or does it get logged into some other category.

    can you get 2012 statistics when they both played more consistently? not much to run off for KB (Kurtley Beale) this year. i actually posted gareth's comments because i thought they were relevant given his status as a IRB hall of fame fly half, not as a pot shot at any one player. if i wanted to use...

    agree. his defense is quite good and when at 15 it's typically been excellent. somebody sad QC (Quade Cooper) isn't getting any love??

    does your stadium have stands? for my money the best place to play it, though its unlikely to happen would be Melbourne Uni oval. no better ground in melbourne

    Rugby TV Shows

    that was the best show i've seen last night. eales is a great individual to get on the show and with him and barnes replacing the two morons in eyeore and marto, the quality of conversation was elevated to actual rugby. timmy horan was much improved having his old master, eales, keeping him in...
