He went through a stage when his penalty to turn over ratio was shocking…which is when he fell out of favour. However for some reason they never seemed to judge RHP by the same measuring stick! His error/penalty rate is definitely up there.

I think a big issue with the backline is two fold...Lomani and To'omua didn’t work. Whether it’s them still gelling I am not sure but it’s hard to know who was at fault. Also the backline has a lot of skilful options at centres but really there is no punch. You could argue that korobete or...

See fan also had a different halfback...

everyone is giving To'omua a hard time but lomani was just as bad

Question for anyone who knows, whatever happened to local lad Allan Faalavaau? One minute with the Sevens next minute dropped off the face of the Earth. Did he ever trial with the Rebels?

Interesting choice for a playmaking back to go... unless there had been some serious player movement. But to move to a club where he will now contend with Rohan Safoloi, Lawson Creighton, Paddy James and that’s just the big names jostling st the club. No accounting for the colts coming through...

I would say Morea has to start. The Waratahs forwards are solid but I wouldn’t say many are known for explosive running. Morea could help create some momentum like Kerevi did for the reds.

☝️Don’t put that shit on me... But seriously good player, if he is like anyone but it’s Adam Thomson

Lucas himself said on the fox rugby podcast after the U20s Championship that his best and favoured position is 15

wow didn’t realise they were hacked. definitely explains it

Is the reds website now all about flogging memberships or can you get back to the premier rugby section? Every time I try and get around the membership pages it diverts me back?

I don’t have thoughts either way on whether it’s right or wrong by the Rebels or Sione Tui as I don’t know the ins and outs of the situation. I do think that where there is smoke there is fire in regards to the lack development strategy and I know my own club Wests have been a big beneficiary...

It’s an outrage that no one has picked up Zack Holmes to come home. Also I have heard it through the grapevine the u20 winger Sione Tui is off overseas after the JWC…Not really getting a look in at the Rebels apparently.

The Physicality in that Wests vs Brothers match makes me glad I played in different era…Lads being rocked hard left-right-centre. Great defence by the dogs but brothers found a way to win. One of the best games I have seen this season.

Much of a muchness...imagine hunter running on the wing off Petaia. Hunter started on the wing for harlequins when he debuted in 1st grade in Melbourne so he will hold his own.

are all these players gone to other clubs? other cities? retired? gone doesn't really paint an accurate picture.

It seems the old issue of thinking schoolboys make good u20s is happening here. Qld won the u20s last year with most of those players being bottom age. Hoopert Maafu Stewart Blyth Hocking Lucas tominiko Mcreight All played in that squad and were bottom age. Views that schoolboys success...

It's a strange comment considering at this age group QLD has dominated the other states across the last 3 years. Also has the most players playing consistently in this age group in super rugby. Some years it happens.

Makes more sense to have lance at 15. We won a super title with him there.

It actually makes sense to sign him. It's a short term loan of a player who had experience in a professional environment and is therefore more ready physically to make an impact than a young buck off the streets from brisbane or Sydney. Also couple it with the fact that any player the force pull...
