Fair enough - I still don't think there was a particularly need to 'make up for' the covid years when hands were tied as to where games could viably be played. It just seems like an oversaturation of games for one city, particularly when the games aren't close to being sellouts. Not suggesting...

That's what I'm saying - this is an abnormal circumstance. Jimmy implied it was commonplace.

You're all wrong - it needs to be based on anthem performance. When the camera's on you, you better be fucking belting it. Extra points for crying.

Many of them are returning home or to somewhere they have already spent an extended period of time. Obviously some will be happier to move for a short contract than others, and it's more understandable given the unique circumstances. The comment I initially responded to suggested established...

That's of course unique to each player, but clearly

Is this including or excluding the upcoming matches? If excluding, it doesn't really suggest that Sydney needs 2 more this year

Doesn't make it any more appealing if there are other options... Can't think of an established player who's moved states for a 1yr deal tbh.

Absolutely - it wouldn't surprise me if they had set 30k as the goal.

Pending how Wilson goes this weekend, you'd think it's: 6. Valetini 7. McReight 8. Wilson / Cale

Somewhat surprising as I've heard they're actively making a bit of a push for attendance via clubs administrator, schools, ref association, etc. I had assumed this meant numbers were less than they'd hoped, but they could just be trying to get a big number on the board.

Lynagh and JOC (James O'Connor) were injured for a good portion of the season, and it's likely HMP's introduction to Super was (rightfully) being managed.

ABs will win their remaining 12 matches this year. Anything less should be seen as a failure.

I can understand the Force’s argument for wanting to do so, but given the current climate around finances, I can also understand why RA said no.

Pretty huge claim without any evidence. Force’s recruitment of Eastern players over the past two seasons has actually been pretty strong… Don’t think there’s a need for dispensation on the number of overseas players anymore.

It's almost as though jumping to conclusions about who's getting a fair shake after only a handful of signings have been announced is misguided!

When the time comes, any chance you're able to share any results on here?

Is it really an upset if it's expected there'll be an upset? Schrödinger's upset?

That would have to be close to best attended since the '21 final wouldn't it?

Completed - best of luck on the research. Bold of you to post on a rugby forum without having it as a selectable option ;)

A bit of both, but I believe making the trek out to Northgate is favoured now given number 2 oval has been turned into a carpark
