It's despairing at times when you see some of the initiatives coming from other Super Rugby teams and compare to what the Tahs do => smartphone apps, better social media offerings etc. And they wonder why there is no (or little) headway being made in terms of engagement with fans and general...

Have some sort of knock out mini tournament. Last two teams play for something (prize $$$/trophy etc) at half time in the last home game.

That would require Tahs HQ to be pro active and think outside the box...all too hard? Not much point letting members know about it. Also, why do they persist getting competition winners to perform at half time? Does anyone give a damn? Better off organising some juniors or the ladies to...

Tahs HQ should send the Blues some updated profiles pics to use on their website. That's unless that was the photo Tahs HQ sent them. Back to the Future! From 2010.

^ Wouldn't Saturday arvo games clash with playing commitments?

I was part of the 12,000+, was there for the Rebels game and plan to be there for the remaining home games. Can’t truly appreciate the good times without experiencing the crap ones. It is a bit rich for Tahs fans (or any other team’s fans) who don't go to games to hurl brickbats about the crowd...

An alternative could be to give each child a family two game membership rather than a kids membership alone. Giving a child a kids season membership means Mum and/or Dad still have to shell out for tickets for themselves and any other siblings (who don’t have a membership) plus parking and...

I would keep Ulugia, Kepu and perhaps Chapman and McCutcheon as well. Ulugia did OK tonight. It's probably the first time I have seen a hooker not replaced during a match. But with what we saw with Holmes last week, I don't blame Cheika for keeping Johnny U on for a full 80. It wouldn't...

Really? Spoken to many Tahs supporters lately? Cheika is signed for four years and I think it may take longer than that to achieve any lasting success.

t's slowly coming together for the Tahs. Watch out when they actually put in an 80 minute performance. Another stern test next Sunday against the rejuvenated Blues. The AR on the western side during the second half should be dropped and never to return. How he didn't pick up a Cheetahs...

^ I appreciate what you say. Not saying it shouldn't be done. From my experience, if tickets are given away, it is perceived the event (sporting or otherwise) isn't good enough for people to actually pay for it. If it's expected that freebies will be available, then it may be difficult to...

Reported in the SMH a couple of weeks ago (refer Tahs connect article): http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-union/union-news/mitchell-ashleycooper-test-overseas-options-20130228-2f91t.html The weather should be good tomorrow night so there should be at least 10K there. Giving away tickets just...

I was referring to Tahs HQ and not the Rugby Club. The Rugby Club do a fine job of holding the evenings. It was a poorly worded sentence. :(

Jason was a good speaker and gave an insight into his background and what the Tahs, under his leadership, are trying to achieve. A bit of skepticism within the audience in regards to where the Tahs are heading. Many weren’t afraid to let Jason know about which he handled well. Appreciated the...

These areas/clubs don't have an influential benefactor who could help pull this off. The Tahs have their second bye in mid April so it's a good chance to do some community engagement. The players could have a break early in the week after playing the Canes. On their return, they could split...

Just noticed there is an app allowing the subscriber to watch six NRL games live each week during the regular season (plus finals + some rep games) for $90 per year. Quality could be iffy, but certainly an alternative to Foxtel...

Things like this do nothing to dispel the impression that rugby is an elitist sport. From Payto and Panda 8 March 2013:

Will we ever see a co-ordinated effort from the ARU like the AFL's Community Program where there looks to be a proactive effort to engage the community by working with not only sporting organisations, but also community groups, to introducing the game of AFL to all and sundry. It's a long term...

If he commits to at least another year, then take him on the spring tour if his form warrants it. Otherwise, no gold jersey for him. It just cheapens the honour of being a Wallaby. Sad that some good players have never been selected, yet the likes of Timana Tahu have four Wallaby caps.:mad:
