DB "Hopefully Hamish gets some decent (any) minutes this week.." We don't know the full story. Maybe BT wants Lance to get up to full match fitness level, or that Stewart is carrying a minor niggle. I think that Stewart will get some play time, for the same first reason (needs to keep match...

So how does a young Wright rate against a young Gill at that stage of Gill's development? i.e. starting in Super 15

What happened to Monday?

Looks like I'd say you should have a fibulator handy.. just in case.

Maybe Ready has an injury niggle?

;)

1st Sunwolves 2nd Reds 3rd Rebels 4th Brumbies 5th Waratahs Now that should get top odds!

Do you notice that every Australian Super team is saying they're extremely fit going into the competition. I'd like to think that the Reds will be somewhat fitter than the Rebels, after BT's fitness regimen, combined with extremely hot conditions of play in the Brisbane 10's to semi final...

You'll notice that all the tipsters are backing the Reds to come last out of the Australian chapter. I like that. All the other sides are blowing hot air on just how good they're going to be, but you don't see anything from the Reds camp. That suggests to me that the side is totally focusing on...

This is not so much "handbags at 20 paces stuff" (public antagonism to his legal findings), but tiddly winks at 100 paces. In other words, lets move on.

Jim Tucker of 'The Courier Mail', in discussing whether Hamish Stewart or Jono Lance will be selected as run on fly half, observes that it could well be Stewart as Dave Wessels now coach of the Rebels, is familiar with Lance's game, having coached him at The Western Force through 2016/17...

Anyone know how Perese is after his knock at the end of the game against Fiji?

From what I read, the Rebels had a surplus of quality fly-halfs, and Jono Lance was keen to play for an English club where he'd spent some time towards the end of last year until he broke his hand/finger? But ARU didn't want the English adventure to become permanent,as after Foley on a Wallaby...

Pity we could'nt have kept Rob Simmons & let Douglas go back over the border.

Actually I could say I was referring to the first of two rounds between the Rebels & the Reds But I won't because it would then appear to be nit picking.

So as there was no thread for the trial game between the Reds & Fiji, I thought it is best to get things going early for the game between the Rebels & the Reds. The Rebels have just come off 2 defeats against the Brumbies & the Waratahs, but without a number of their star lineup. The Reds is a...

Bump

I think Jono Lance is a real positive to share the flyhalf position with Hamish Stewart. At this moment in time, I can see Jono being the first pick to play, but that the two of them will be sharing the position over a long season.

C'mon Fatprop, you're just narky because you weren't invited to pose in the photograph.

For me, I see a pass mark as winning more games than losing. To do that, they need to win probably 66.6% of their first 9 games, when as a young side with a new coach, they might sneak in under the radar. After that, they'll be up against Kiwi sides which will be a very difficult hurdle for a...
