Rebels cannot afford to drop another game, having dropped to second last its not a good look for coaches who all got resigned.

I see Nic White and JOC (James O'Connor) as the 9/10 combo in the West next year.

With all the unsigned players I am worried our eggs are all in the Thor basket and we don't have the money to retain enough quality.

Oh come on, looking for a reason not to penalize a team is also called cheating. I'm all for free flowing rugby as long as it's coming from fair ball. Watching a side enter 2 out of every 3 rucks from the side is not acceptable.

BOK was dreadful tonight, every second ruck the Sanders entered from the side and not once did he ping it. I love rugby, but I'm sick to death of the favorite continuously getting away with the most basic of breaches all game. The ref is meant to be natural and BOK fails that, the Saders lose...

There is no good Guinness in Melbourne anyway.

Powerhouse rugby club always have one on

It would be a long time out of Europe if it goes to Japan again in 2035. I have no problem with Italy hosting, they have the stadiums.

I would still start this backrow and have Hardwick off the bench, better balance.

Just switched in the Utah v New England game, crowd sounds awesome. Making a lot of noise for Utah. Does not look like a large crowd, but plenty of noise.

Ok, so Hardwick and Ili both could have played for the Wallabies last year, no one was interested in that. Now they are not available the Rebels are carrying to many internationals. Monty is a bit different, the Rebels and ARU screwed up not contracting him earlier in his career. Ekuasi is only...

Your forwards aren't fit enough, they only did that in the dying minutes because they were chasing the game. When the play stopped they looked wrecked trying to recover before the next passage of play.

Stacey Ili was awesome again, at one stage made a tackle. Got up and made the tackle on the player who had received the 0ff load. Two phases later he was involved in winning a turn over on the other side of the pitch. Guy seemed to be everywhere at times.

Agree, most of the guys playing Union here support a NZ side. Even most of the ex pats already supported a side before moving South so have a team that's not the Rebels.

Will be interesting to see the difference in Wilkin stats this weekend with Hardwick missing. Think that he will step up being a menace.

Wallabies v Lions 2013 - 56771, 2nd biggest crowd at Marvel for sport. 1st place is UFC so more seats available. Wallabies v England 2016 - 29 871 Biggest ever crowd at AAMI park, 5th place is Wallabies v Ireland 29 018 and 8th is Rebels v BIL at 28 658 So saying no one in the state cares about...

Just played catch up on this thread: I actually think it's a good thing that the Wallabies coaching line up is all fresh faces, means there is no previous loyalties coming into a RWC year. I don't think Eddie Jones will be giving you caps based on your reputation and is going to make every...

Hard not to see the Rebels getting up by at least 25 given we lost to the Canes by 6 and they beat the Reds by 34

Rebels need to win this or the season is kak

Liking a All Blacks rest policy, hopefully the unsettled Chiefs drop there first game of the season. Don't really rate Gatland at 10, and think resting your 9/10 combo at the same time is a massive gamble.
