Isn't it great, all this political correctness on the rugby scene. It gives us something t write about during the off season.

Possibly a case of 'Wrongful dismissal' if Hunt is given his marching orders. I'd think statue law would have precedence over RA & Reds contracts. So the rugby officiado need to be very careful where they tread.

I don't think the Aussi men are going to do too well in Hamilton. Their new inspirational skipper Holland is out with minor cork injuries, along with other key players. Also the Kiwi players will have something to prove in front of their home crowd. The Blitzboz, or whatever they call...

Rugby is not a long term game for players. Use the best you have today, and let the younger pretenders force their way in.

I agree with you QH, regarding innocence until proven guilty, though unfortunately too many on this forum are too quick to give an opinion without having the facts. They hopefully are not in the legal system. But if KH is found guilty, then to rugby fans (myself included) he really has gone...

Stan was a real character. When the Wallabies were in Fiji (I think it was late 70's) they were playing a provincial side prior to a test. Bob Templeton the coach gave me & a mate some free tickets at the resort they & us (by coincidence) were staying at. After the game which was about 16 klms...

I have read the ad infinitum comments regarding QC (Quade Cooper) & Pickles (and Vanzati), and have given the matter much consideration. And there can only be one answer, owing to the timing of the announcement & the consequences of that late timing (bad business decision, bad for obtaining replacements, etc...

Far too many diapers for my liking. Might be a top side in 2019 or 2020.

"Should" or "could" With what we know/don't know at the moment, I think the "could" is more appropriate.

So when is the Reds squad announced. Anyone know?

Y?

Gees Scrubber, with an attitude like that, you sure wouldn't be in my 23

Well I for one don't think the NRC competition is broke, so there is no need to fix it. It's still a relatively new competition but some of the rugby I've watched is absolutely first rate. The fact that the Cheika, and the Super teams are behind it is obviously adding to the quality of games. It...

But at the same time, rugby coaching is not (hopefully) the same as the public service, where promotion up the ranks is mostly done by seniority. In Thorne's case, aside from his outstanding playing record, he has now successfully coached for two seasons, has been an assistant coach to the Reds...

Caught the last 2 mins n my computer. Thanks Ash. I'll know where to go next time.

Is there video for this game? If so what's the link?

Hopefully it will provide a gateway into higher representative rugby for Fijian players and diminish the Thugby League scouts from grabbing promising young players. Apparently it was the first time a number of them were on an aeroplane.

I wonder who the QRU's legal advisers were? This could/should have been settled out of court.

I dream of a shakeup in the Reds coaching staff for 2018. I dream of Brad Thorn as head coach and defense coach That man has so much experience & respect from the players and I believe can shortcut straight through to the HC role, with Tony McMahon as his mentor. I also would like Phil Mooney...
