And ARU topups to keep them in NSW/Rugby etc..

I think it would be impossible to make a call on Angus Roberts as a flyhalf on only the South African games.

I suspect he is referring to Lilo Mowen and to some extent Folau. All of whom have been good so far.

I've long been of the mind that Louden would do good things with the Rebels. Hopefully there is more than some truth to the rumour. Perhaps they might have him locked as an assistant if he doesn't get the coaching gig.

Alternatively, you can often just get access by using news.com.au, which shares the articles. For example, with that link if you replace "theaustralian" with "news" it will give you the entire article. (That tends to be how google gets access to it)

Potentially. English has far exceeded expectations this season and may just be a bit of a late bloomer. I am hesitant to say that someone who was better as a schoolboy is intrinsically better as an adult. Kingston does add something new to the mix though. If we are being realistic, Vuna...

If I were him, I'd be having some serious thoughts about whether an ongoing career in Rugby is the right choice. Neck injuries are not something you mess around with, and I do not think a couple more years in the sun is worth the possibility of a more serious injury down the track.

I'm fairly indifferent about Vuna leaving. Yes he can be a real bustling runner on the attack, but rugby is a game that goes two ways and his form is erratic generally. Even when he is on song, he has a bad habit of running away from support and getting isolated. English has looked like a far...

I am sure Bruce Ross will give you the full rundown SAH.

Fair point, I was going to say I wasn't sure about how the drainage was, given the location of the main paddock but I couldn't remember ever playing on a substantially wet pitch there so I figured the drainage was good.

Jeez, now you're taking me back. My training kit would stink to high heavens every week. I tend to agree with you about Box Hill. Really good location for watching rugby at a surburban venue. Substantially better than Quins.

That match helped me identify the main problem I have with Marto. Not only is is a simplistic fanboy, as many have noted, but he's a bloody downhill skier too. With the (possible) exception of the Reds, he's all too willing to sing the praises of the expected "better" team and also all too...

Fair point, you'd have to think that has been playing on his mind.

Having been informed that the ''english white'' will not be accepted on tour, lions team members are showing their team support by working on a nice shade of red.

While I do not necessarily think that he will be, we cannot be truly sure until he also starts getting some regular gametime at Super level. Further, who can say what will happen with injuries in the future.

Link? I can't seem to find it on their twitter page.

This is later determined to also include black/gold, black/red, black/blue and black/white symptoms.

Ultimately sounds like an all around win for both teams. Chiefs got a player who wants to play for them who is playing the house down. Rebels end up with a player who wants to play for them (and who doesn't eat up international positions).

Now that I look for it, when I watch the replay it is really telling the effect that Phipps has on the forwards. He's a mouthy sort and he really does a good job organising the forwards at the breakdown. While I can see why people like Stirzacker, he really has to add that to his game if he...

I've got to say, I wasn't sold after last week, but this week I was very impressed. He addressed some significant flaws in his game.
