Wests called for expression of interests back at the beginning of August for anyone interested in coaching premier grade, premier reserve and premier colts. The advertisement mentioned that all positions would be finalised by months end. I haven’t heard the outcome of that process was, but I...

So city won the game, but who won the dual of the flyhalfs? McIntyre or Greene?

I can’t see brothers not making the 4, their Key players are all young and all playing in the NRC. They are only going to get better from their time in a pro environment, and if they do manage to get Tim Smith on board...they are a real chance for the title. Same as Bond University, they...

^^Will he be in the Wests jersey next year? Or will he be moving to another premier grade club?

Wouldn’t surprise me steve doublesteve. History usually dictates that anyone who is a rising star will leave us…so it wouldn’t surprise me if the rugby gods continued to punish us bulldogs. Our club has been pretty unlucky ever since the 2008 AGM, when the club voted to cash in all...

Anyone able to give a report on the north vs south colts game? FInal Score and stand out players?

Former rebel Lalakai Foketi has left bayonne and is now playing for Bay of Plenty in the ITM cup...Can't believe no Australian club wanted him Maybe wants to play for the country of birth?

Not really aussie player exodus news, but not sure where else to post this. Former rebel Richard Kingi has apparently retired? Anyone heard why? He was only 26… so I would have to think it was injury?

IF the force sign do manage to sign Pyle you have a pretty formidable back 5: 4. Pyle 5. Coleman 6. Mafi 7. Cottrel 8. McCalman I wonder if Nathan Charles doesn’t have much left in him? Planning the future around Sexton and Scoble with Tessman and Charles gone by the end of...

What happened to logan was pretty BS. They Made Reserve Grade final in 2013 then were moved down to 1st grade and dominated the competition in 2014. ..Yet still no promotion to premier was forthcoming. You can’t leave a club in limbo like that. Eventually dominating the third XV of premier...

They could do a lot worse than play a backline of : Mathewson Grant Haylett-Petty Godwin Tapuai Morahan Lance However I would prefer: Mathewson Lance Rasolea/Nikora Godwin Tapuai Morahan Haylett-Petty

I think we need to chill out. For all we know the plan could be to play Burton or Lance at 10 and have grant come on just to close clutch games out. Grant isn’t a terrible option if Godwin is at 12. Grant is an apt distributor and more likely to give Godwin good pill then Sias.

Rebels could do worse than to bring in someone like Alfie Mafi as wing depth. As for lock bring back someone like Jack Payne who is currently in the Scarlets Academy I think?

Graham & Carmichael were seen bonding over beers in the Reds Corporate box during the test match. Would surprise me if he got a 5 year extension

Not sure if Thompson is really what the rebels backrow needed. Still a handy player but the rebels have lost a major attacking outlet in Higgers and I don't think Thompson provides the same qualities

If Steenkamp leaves I reckon Force should have a good look at ben matwijow in shute shield to replace wykes as 5/6 option. Break the bank to bring longbottom back

I suppose TT might rely on his player pool and develop jeffiries or cummins? Tala Grey is off contract with the Tahs as well, and i believe he is a melbourne boy….

I thought it was a 1 year deal so he could play the rwc?

You cant take that forward pack it lacks punch. Need a bruising lock with timani to 8

AJ has talent but how old is he? The rebels might be better off signing a younger blood like Allaatoa or Fereti Saaga
