I also saw you say on the reds thread that the Waratahs #7 looked out of his depth, but you also say here you don’t know his name. His name is Charlie gamble and he’s not out of his depth. I think he is returning from a long injury layoff, so perhaps a passive approach is by design.

A superb display of pre season foxing by the Waratahs

I’m no tech guru but I’m thinking the blame may be more at the feet of australias world class internet capabilities than Stan specifically. Just hypothesisising.

it wont. Animal activists have been trying to get horse racing banned for about 50 years. They get ignored en masse largely because of the revenue to government. There are negligible welfare issues with humans playing sport.

Only if it was deemed a takeover, which would be a full transfer of the balance sheet to RA. That's not what is happening though, the players and staff are effectively RA employees now, past obligations would not transfer just because of that.

it's because the letters K B are in your link and the auto "correct" function the admins have added in is inserting (Kurtley Beale) after that. Let Sully know

Yes, as far as the starting point for Wallabies selections go, I'd be inclined to rule a line at the end of the Rugby Championship squads and go from there. Not suggesting the bolters in the RWC squad didn't deserve to be there, but that is when Eddie went peak rogue.

I don't disagree with any of this, it's pretty much my thinking as well.

The consensus is that Hooper will be fighting it out for the 6 jersey. Wilkin is uncapped, it probably depends a lot on whether Wright can remain injury free and what sort of form he can regain. I’m not advocating for him to get the gig, but you’d think he is as much in the conversation as...

Possibly McReight, will depend on whether Schmidt wants a pure 7 or a 6.5 or 7.5

I just changed the thread title to 2024, or should we start a new one?

OK I've set up the league. I've gone the 15 players option with Fox scoring. Draft date is currently Thu 22/2 19:00 AEST. All these can be changed. There are 10 spots available, if we cant fill them from the forum we can go wider, friends, family etc. I'm not sure where this link will land...

I will never forgive the place after going down there to participate in a sports event in the early 2000's, only to come down in the morning to drive to said event and find my brand new car on bricks with no wheels. In a security car park mind you.

Welcome to Canberra

or a yellow for a collapse

Righto I'll get it sorted - does the thursday before the first round work for the draft? Figured last year we leave it till as late as possible so we were buying players who were actually assured of playing. Also, I can tinker with the scoring system, if anyone has some suggestions let me know.

funny, I just accidentally posted in the RWC fantasy thread calling for EOI's, then saw your post here. Here's what I posted but you can take the reins if you like DT: Gents/Ladies - calling on EOIs for participants in the 2024 version of this. Takes 2 minutes to setup a league so I don't mind...

a board can be dissolved at any time, in fact it's common for administrators to do that and then appoint their own one. That doesn't absolve the pre-existing board of their responsibilities of course. I would assume PwC are doing their DD and retracing events to work out who should go and...

yes, I was just thinking out loud really. Liam Wright or Wilkin could be the most conservative options outside McReight.

This can now be confusing as we've had 2 completely different Hoopers playing 7 for the Wobs in the past two seasons. I think this was in reference to M Hooper but I've also recently read some comments re the suitability of T Hooper to the role. The jury is certainly out on the bigger bodied...
