This will be interesting to watch

^^^^^ TF will be good for rugby. We need to wait and see his plans before we go overboard on his effect. But that he will be a positive influence of this there can be no doubt.

I have no answer to your questions because as I said its way to early. If TF however unlikely was to seek my advice, the first thing i would do is go to Bret Patworth and say look I got 10 million to build up TGM. TGM will become the Sydney base of my competition, then have a SS select team...

I am holding off any judgement at this stage as it still early doors. My concern's are two, but its as I said too early to make judgement calls. First on the surface of what I have read a 6 team Pan Pacific / Asian competition with only one Australian team will not garner massive Australian...

The WF players will be absorbed in some manner I don't think even the ARU are that silly not to honour WF players contracts. I think in some ways the decision will be claimed a success in that I think average crowds will lift and average ratings will increase. Fox will be happier and all will...

What disappoints me most at the moment is they manner in which the ARU have painted themselves into a corner. By arguing so hard for Super rugby to be only four teams and thats all they can afford it simply reduces alternative options. Further the old blame someone else will come into play...

More reasons for the board to stand down. A veteran sports consultant who twice warned the Australian Rugby Union that under no circumstances should it agree to an expanded 18-team Super Rugby competition says the governing body has only itself to blame for "signing their death knell" despite...

Mods what the fuck have you done to the site I just spend over an hour breaking down each round between Australian sides V Australian sides and a crowd functional calculation. It just puts everything together . I then tried to simply put in characters and that went pear shaped too. If I like...

Sometimes its easier just to copy the article and this is one of those times. Not a lot thats new but in one spot. Read for yourselves From NEWS. http://www.news.com.au/sport/rugby/aru-chief-executive-bill-pulver-grilled-at-senate-hearing-in-perth/news-story/f1cd33ce9b72702b3e9ae3dd52789acd...

agree

You may be right but its total bullshit as a number of rugby folks put together a funding package of almost $600K per year before the NRC started and were essentially total to fuck off as they wanted it based in Newcastle, mostly with players from the Hunter / Newcastle area. They had local, TV...

Sometimes I do ponder if our greater rugby intellectuals, planners, thinkers, strategic analysis, deserve their status. I have mentioned sometimes my connections to rugby in Newcastle, but if ever a region / area has been begging and providing evidence but all to little avail. So Canberra why...

Imagine if someone said this two or three years ago, the forum would have suggested they be sent to the loonie bin. Lets ignore the NRL & AFL. If someone had said the following statement, who would have not suggested the loonie bin. The girls soccer team will play a friendly on the same day...

In the future crowds and ratings like this could have a dramatic effect on our revenue. JON was a forerunner in getting governments and cities to pay for major sporting events so no longer did you have to oily hire the stadium you got the stadium for free and cities would bid for the mattress...

Impressive ratings last night Sat STV #rugby #FoxSports #AUSvARG 123k #NZLvRSA 115k Drum roll for the FTA Sat TV #rugby #TRC2017 #AUSvARG TEN 107k

I think you are right the Matilda's drew a bigger crowd. Newcastle is another place for smaller test matches. We have to regroup and that means going were your strength is.

Looking at the crowd tonight in Canberra and last week at NIB and you wonder aloud why the Force.

Its more actually and its still bleeding money by the millions.
