Also, Felsman has been robbed. Brad Lacey is a bullshit inclusion over him.

LMR while I agree with your sentiment in principle (and can confirm what you heard about Jack de Guigand) I think you could have chosen better examples... - Magnay played prem colts for GPS in his first year out of school. Couldn't crack prems because he was behind Samu Kerevi. Furthermore, he's...

Aumua and Toby white a two big centers so if Samu is away with the wallabies they should still be able to play the same game plan. Keen to see Hunt play 12 for an extended period

This is a fun watch. Mostly just a biopic but possibly some lessons from a side that turned things around in spectacular fashion after appointing a domestic coach.

Koroibete is a great signing for the Rebels I'll grant you that. Well done to all who made that happen. To be fair though I thought Nabuli was solid performer for the Reds this year and generally pretty consistent. With an NRC under his belt I think he'll get significantly better next year...

The other thing we know is that Quade likes QLD, so no not really unless something more concrete appears

You would think it's likely that Jack Tuttle will be in there with his brother. Houston could be BC or QC (Quade Cooper) it remains to be seen. Macca Jones will be involved for sure. Maybe guys like Vanzati and Aumua from Souths, Mitchell and Fines-luluwasa(?) from Sunnybank or Felsman from Bros? I suppose...

So who are the certainties in QC (Quade Cooper)'s best side? There is the Reds boys 1 Fa'agase 3 Thor 9 Tuttle 10 Mason 12 Paia'ua 13 Magnay Then there is the boys who started last year who have all had strong club seasons 2 Mafi 5 Potgieter 6 Mitchell 7 ?de Guigand or Jones? 8 Cornelsen Other guys that...

I know the Ready family a bit. I can say with confidence that at the current time he isn't stressed about Moore's arrival. His general attitude is that he believes he'll learn some stuff and that he probably won't lack for game time anyway because Moore is getting on.

So I heard from a person who is quite likely to know (close relationship with one of the selection committee) that the coach decision has been made and it is apparently not blackadder or MOC. The bastard wouldn't tell me specifically who won the race though. Not sure what to make of it.

On the positive side I was at the game and it was noticeable to me how much flatter Duncan played than Jake does. He's also faster and has better footwork. I thought he looked much more assured

That's the backline that I had hoped we would field as first choice when season 2016 got underway. Unfortunately due to injuries and some form drops (I.e To'omua, though that might have been related to the knee injury and TK) we have arrived here late and in less than ideal circumstances. That...

Based on the look of photos from today's training, the boys in green look to be more so first stingers and the orange more so reserves and squaddies. Notable ones for me are Lealiifano, To'omua, Kerevi and Kuridrani all in green. Naiyaravoro in green and Horwill and Simmons in green. Palu in...

1. Slipper 2. TPN 3. Kepu 4. Carter 5. Horwill 6. Fardy 7. Hooper 8. McCalman 9. Phipps (hopefully still with the boot mark on the arse he deserved this week) 10. Foley 11. Horne 12. To'omua (he's been back training for 3 weeks now) 13. TK 14. DHP 15. Folau 16. Moore 17. Sio 18. Holmes 19...

They're supposed to be 2 years allowed. The Reds had Tui on contract in 2015 but he played one game due to injury. I think they applied successfully to the ARU to play on in 2017

Surely it has to be 1. Sio 2. Moore 3. Kepu 4. Horwill or Carter 5. Arnold 6. Fardy 7. Hooper 8. McCalman 9. Phipps 10. Foley 11. Horne 12. Lilo 13. TK 14. DHP 15. Folau 16. TPN 17. Slipper 18. Holmes 19. Skelton 20. Gill 21. Frisby 22. To'omua 23. Kerevi The only contentious decision is...

What if the Refs could carry an iPhone thing that could give them the live Spider Cam view at the same time as looking from where they stand as the scrum engaged?

Yeah but the reasons you can "fail" a concussion test are broad and non-specific now I.e you could answer all the questions perfectly and have no symptoms but if the medic thinks he saw you look stunned or dazed they can (and arguably should) "fail" you on suspicion. Great for player safety...

I'm sure Jack D will come good...so You lot probably don't need him

At the start of the year I was looking forward to To'omua cementing a role at 12 for the Brums and Wobs for a while. Then he signed overseas and picked up the knee niggle which caused him to have a few shit games in a row. And now he's fresh from an operation... I don't know, I think he'd be best...
