    The Wallabies Thread

    Tui may also be a bolter. he is quite a damaging runner and decent pace for a big boy. Attributes that may get him a look in at being trialled in that 6 jersey.

    Reds 2017

    I don't know what to think of us being in the hunt for the finals. Take it I guess but we just don't deserve it. This whole race to top the conference for that finals berth is like racing to be the cherry on the turd.

    The Wallabies Thread

    I wouldn't put Fardy out to pasture but we really need youth to step in here. Fardy for the bench but we need to look beyond him.

    Coaching the coaches

    It's a good idea but people need to remember this is not a quick fix. It is one of these things that will address a broken system over time.

    Worst Commentator Pole Action

    Just clone Sumo to commentate the games. He has my kind of sense of humor and makes it fun. He does his job professionally but doesn't take himself to serious in doing so. He is genuinely funny unlike others who are simply turds who like the sound of their own voice. No real rocket science...

    Rebels v Reds, Sat 13 May @ 7:45pm

    That was frustrating but the Reds deserved the win. It is there but not put into a complete package. That is the frustration that is the Reds.

    Brumbies v Lions, 7:45pm Fri May 12 - GIO Stadium

    Ian Smith is the NZ version of Marto. The prick can make ones ears bleed.

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    They are not separate though. They leverage each other and that effect is what governments are interested in. AFL is the obvious example.

    Sharks v Force, Sat 6th - Round 11 - Kings Park, Durban

    Australian Rugby is crap. The way I look at the Force is that they were in a very dark place last year and have made bold changes which have seen significant improvements from a very low base. That's top stuff in my view and it won't happen over night coming from a low base but the promise of...

    Brumbies v Lions, 7:45pm Fri May 12 - GIO Stadium

    Lions I think will win this and I hope they do. They play the better brand of rugby and that is pretty much all I care about.

    Depends on the social license they bring to the community BH. If they add broader community value, a government will buy in. Both social and economic capital.

    He needs game time at the elite level to improve. Simples.

    Reds 2018

    Experience doesn't grow on trees and young people professionally develop in different ways. To much expectation is put on them and that is either by arm chair critics with dick in hand or failures within development systems. The other problem with rugby in general in Australia is the over...

    Declining participation and ARU plans for the future

    It hasn't been promoted well enough for people to like it. Fact is those within the niche are so risk adverse they don't put the effort into promoting it. It is your typical narrow minded, mundane fucking conservative attitude. People still have the idea in their heads that it is in...

    Reds vs Waratahs - 29th April RD 10

    It would be great if the Tahs could select the big paperweight on the wing in the starting 15. Who knows which way this one will go. Both sides have made turning silver into shit this season an art form so who knows. On paper you would back the Reds but as we know paper doesn't play games of...

    If we are to have a peoples uprising in Australia to take control of rugby. We need to be armed with pitchforks and not cheque books.

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    The problem with Rugby in Australia is that it lacks the social licence of its competitors. No dis-respect intended but it has remained in the niche of the elite for so long. It needs somebody from outside the base to work on that. The growth pathways and associated funding options are there...
