Is this your way of predicting that he'll be a back-of-the-lineout option lifted by a fumble-fingered Will Skelton?

I think the correct collective noun is 'a dis-satisfaction'.

How many were directly tested? Mr K Beale was the subject of the proceedings and no-one else.

That by god is a huuuge call! But to address the question in the thread title: few of last night's 'roos team on last night's performance. (Altho' a few would otherwise be in consideration). The Kiwis no.7, though, is a different matter. Hell of an impressive player - but maybe more or a...

I signed up myself and Ms MungoSpouse for another year yesterday. I wasn't packing a sad or anything - just slack and slow off the mark. The Reds reminder email worked, in other words...

How many souprugby teams are domiciled here? And then compare that with the number of Oz-domiciled RL teams. Then consider there is a 'national' (in reality, Qld and NSW) youth cup comp in RL but not in RU. And also consider that the next rung down from the NRL still contracts players...

All of which are valid points. And there are others. D) How to account for kids who played rugby at school but were most recently playing RL, e.g national youth cup, NRL feeder club age-group comp, etc? If a draft is reasonably seen as a disincentive for such kids to consider code-swapping...

I certainly thought so. Particularly as the other games I've been to recently - bar the last - have featured the Reds getting hosed...

Most astute, fat_prop. Highly perceptive. (Which is another way of saying, it sounds very much like the unsolicited commentary I myself inflict on my long-suffering wife and son). Be nice to see the odd short inside ball from Genia to a flying back running inside out or a dummied No.10...

Yes - one of the few unequivocally positive things about last night's trip to Suncorp was noting that Ben T is defo getting his old form back. I wondered if this was on the cards back at season's start (or it might have been the Toowoomba trial?) when he came out looking like he'd had his jaws...

Not the full wombat, then. Eats and leaves; no roots.

Using the roundball rights agreement as the target shows sense.

True. But then again his oppo - other Oz Soup sides aside - was a bit less Kiwi and Saffer than at the start of the season.

Positively!

And on a semi-related - and positive - note: ARU is to be commended for the absence of enraging and infantile ground announcers at Suncorp. The presence of such materially detracts from my enjoyment of Reds' games at the same ground.

Was this the only game of his you ever watched? Because you could as easily have said, think try-saving tackles against the Bull and the Stormers, 2010.

Interviewed, with a quite detailed re-imagining of what he said I would suspect. I trust the veracity of nothing that even hints of having JON's fingerprints on it. The last time he did something that was not entirely self-serving was before he had Hair Down There.

When he first swapped codes, Thorn was first and foremost interested in knowing if he had it in him to play for the All Blacks. Playing for the Reds would have been (to exercise considerable understatement) a step in the wrong direction. When he went back the second time, it was 'cause the...
