    Aussie Player Exodus

    I'm going to claim that, as it's 2015 but still pre-season, we're at the point of the year where 'this season' and 'the next season' are the same season...and skulk away quietly... :P

    Rebels 2015

    I would think Higginbotham will remain captain for 2015, with two of Weeks, Jones and McMahon deputies. Higgers has great leadership qualities, even if he doesn't always show them in the heat of action, so he will be able to impart a lot over the year. The Rebels desperately need a franchise...

    Scott Higginbotham leaving at the end of next season. Sigh http://melbournerebels.com.au/news/article/higginbotham-to-depart-at-end-of-2015

    Aussie Player Exodus

    Scott Higginbotham the next player on a plane. Leaving the Rebels after next season to go to Japan. http://melbournerebels.com.au/news/article/higginbotham-to-depart-at-end-of-2015

    Rebels 2015

    I'm taking a sabbatical this year. Going to go deep into the Amazon and really discover myself and what it really means to be a rugby blogger. But in all honesty, I'm juggling a fair bit of Rebs and non-Rebs stuff and just couldn't commit to doing a good enough job.

    Relocating the Rebels?

    I think the ARU would let the Rebels die before they moved them. Especially if NSWC want the ARU to centralise (pay for) player contracts despite the franchise being 'private', they're really not gaining much out of the sale in this scenario save for minor operational costs. At least if the...

    Rebels 2015

    They can't afford me :P Yeah, the portal is a bit rough. Not sure if it's the same one for each Super team, but it seems like the Rebs and I have the same conversation every year...

    The Official Shield Thread.

    I like this. Traditional trophy/shield designs can get bogged down as they are too easy to criticise - we all have different preconceived ideas of what they should look like. I remember the same argument back in 05 while they were launching what became the A-League. Different stakeholders...

    Rebels 2015

    I wouldn't mind replacing the red with the Rising's masculine salmon. It looked brilliant in the NRC.

    Love it. Love it love it love it. HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPS!

    How many NRC games have you attended?

    Tonight's number three. Unfortunately it will be my last, unless the Rising make the big dance. Off to Nepal next Friday.

    Rebels 2015

    Sorry to say I think Scherri-Lee is off the team next season. She's gone over to Perth with Nine. Think Al is doing the Rising games. Could lose the drummers and nobody would notice. Probably couldn't say the same for the cheerleaders (people would definitely notice ;) ) but they're largely...

    Melbourne Rising 2014

    It's great fun, a proper community game. It's like everyone knows everyone there. Highly recommend getting down there for a game. Worth every cent.

    Melbourne Rising V Perth Spirit, 11 September @ AAMI

    I got the hex codes from an image editing program I use. Spread it around - love seeing the navy and masculine salmon everywhere!

    Melbourne Rising V Perth Spirit, 11 September @ AAMI

    Thought the backs were good tonight, great to see Veainu, Jack and English rip it up. Forwards took a bit to warm up, don't think they were expecting such a contest from the Spirit. Once they started rolling, though, they dominated. PAE and McMahon were great. Spirit were real solid...

    Melbourne Rising V Perth Spirit, 11 September @ AAMI

    Yeah, I'm still nervous. We've seen one Rising player signed for the Rebels this week, means the development is going well...and the more they become like Rebels, the sooner they'll start dropping winnable games :P

    The Official Shield Thread.

    If we put all of the glittery stuff on the heptagon, which we place on the Captain America shield where all of the winners go, that'd look marvellous.

    The Official Shield Thread.

    What about having the shield as a heptagon (seven sided)?
