    Round 7: Reds v Rebels - Saturday 30 March @ Suncorp

    Any news on the ASY (Angus Scott-Young) hearing? Was supposed to be announced late yesterday but I can't find anything.

    R7: Waratahs vs Sunwolves - Friday 29 March @ Newcastle

    There's way too much common sense in this post. Sure we beat them by 1 at their home but they are away this week, we are home. If we can't rest Folau, Foley, Dempsey and Kepu this week we are no chance of making the semi's. Hooper should be missing too but his rests will have to wait for...

    Round 6: Waratahs v Crusaders - Saturday 23 March @ SCG

    If Kearns and Kafer both were scheduled to do non-Tah games the quality of commentary would improve dramatically. I remember some years ago they got Kearns to do colour-commentary on a Super game between two NZ teams and he was direct, unbiased and insightful. He's got it in him to be one of the...

    2019 World Cup news

    Bad, bad news! The broadband on cruise ships (or river cruises for that matter) is so bad you will not be able to stream. You might be able to do emails if you are lucky. I was cruising in Europe during RWC 2015 and was SO!!!! disappointed.

    Waratahs 2019

    No jersey's worth $180. My solution? Wait till December and buy last year's jersey in the sale they have every year. Then you'll almost be getting your money's worth.

    All Blacks Northern Tour 2018

    He's pretty much playing second fullback, a configuration the NZ team has been playing for a long time now. Ben from Accounts is not a conventional winger but has played there all year. All the NZ fullbacks except Damien would have the skills to play there - he'll play in the style of Adam...

    Australia v England

    I am on record as wanting To'omua at 10, Kerevi at 12, AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) at 13 and Beale at 11/15 so in one sense I I can agree with you. BUT! This would require our forward pack to match it with the Soap Dodgers pack. I think that whatever pack we put out there will be dominated, just as whatever pack we...

    Wallabies v Italy

    For someone who supposedly never passes, AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) has passed to make two tries so far.

    Wallabies v Italy

    The following comment is for information only and is not pro or anti Cheika: In 2014 I attended one of the Waratah training sessions on the ground outside the SFS. Just a single session so I can't know whether and how many sessions during the week were the same. It ran for under an hour and...

    Wallabies v Italy

    Its Italy. They are a down-the-ranks tier 3 team and despite our form we are still tier 2. I wouldn't disagree we are down the bottom of tier 2 but we have not fallen out of tier 2 yet. We did lose by one penalty goal to the team ranked at 3. So we should not, on any count, pick our "best" team...

    Lurch on the other hand is the best lock on the planet and has been for quite a while.

    Waratahs 2019

    They were not awful, that is completely overstating it. But when they came up against a big powerful fast pack they were outplayed. Every time, except perhaps the quarter final, and The Crusaders, Lions, Hurricanes, Chiefs and Brumbies packs would have beaten the Clan that night too. They were...

    Waratahs 2019

    And about an hour and a half from the population centre of Sydney! Its a really good position for both. Now, if only we had a big Waratah following west of Parramatta.

    Waratahs 2019

    Which brings us back to the fact that as far as recruiting goes, we have a problem that has been three years in the making. When Cron takes over as head coach next year it will take him till at least the second year to restore power to the pigs by recruiting suitable replacements as contracts...

    Waratahs 2019

    Maybe, but given the sizes of the crowd this year why not play every game there? The transport by train is brilliant from everywhere but the northern beaches and the transport to anywhere from the northern beaches is poor. Its a brand new stadium, the SCG is a huge pile of the proverbial for...

    Waratahs 2019

    He's younger than George Smith, isn't he, and plays in a less damaging position? I'm not sure he should be written off without a look at him in Super Rugby first.
