    Queensland Reds 2024

    Sucks for Sef and the reds - but I’d rather these kind of things be dealt with after the game at a judiciary as opposed to on the big screen with a red card ready to go. RL is great, referee says on report & play on and the game isn’t interrupted (unless it’s blatant) our game is being ruined...

    Aussie Player Exodus

    I don’t think this is really happening. If it’s happening for locks (then RA needs to fight to keep these prospects in Oz) it will happen if you get rid of the rebels as there’s only so many super rugby teams to host the plethora of schoolboy rugby players entering the workforce. A super...

    Round 3: Reds vs Chiefs, 6:45pm AEST - Saturday 9th of March @ Suncorp

    I thought Ben OKeefe called a great game. Keep the cheese and beetroot in the pocket and play on. the lynagh dog shot non call was just karma for the Sef head clash non call.

    bit of star power..: wonder if JOC (James O'Connor) is any chance for the filth?

    Queensland Reds 2024

    I would have said start of year he is the utility off the bench but HMP has been playing great in the 1A & 1B flyhalf pairing of Lynagh/HMP. after Issac Henry performance on Saturday. When Paisami & Petaia return - I’d have Henry somewhere in the mixer but ultimately could be left out if LK...

    PVL says a lot of things. he is the used car salesman of all Aussie sports codes CEOs.

    Round 3: Reds vs Chiefs, 6:45pm AEST - Saturday 9th of March @ Suncorp

    The real test is when we get a formidable opponent on the road. Reds might be favoured on Friday night but I suspect they’ll lose to the Rebels. if we can get that win against Melbourne then our other tough opponents outside of Oz will be Drua in Fiji and crusaders in christchurch I don’t want...

    this is going to trigger the Perry park soccer advocates who want a football only venue.

    this is a good point and I agree. one thing I think our footballers lack is game fitness, they are not playing enough rugby and you can see it across all facets of pro rugby in Australia… whether it’s our wallabies quitting at the 68th minute of a Bledisloe match or first game of season against...

    I was thinking super rugby 7s would be a good alternative to NRC for development - at conclusion of club rugby finals - if there’s a cost associated issue with NRC squads travelling interstate then it would be halved only sending 7+ reserves (double that if you sending colts, triple that if you...

    all BBC talent has seemed to be going to Souths rugby as of late… I don’t think Mooney is involved with the college. if you’ve mistaken Mooney with Meehan, he is a former GPS rugby man. When Brad Thorn was playing NRC rugby I believe he was aligned to the gallopers… think Yoku Road will be the...

    The problem is schoolboy rugby is free… no gps school is charging an admission fee to watch the next generation of athletes. if gps schoolboy rugby was played at a venue like ballymore (or Sydney equivalent) I don’t think you’d get the crowd bump you suggest. ***** for the life of me - why...

    Australian Rugby / RA

    When they said the person has been sacked. They could have meant Hamish McLennan… don’t forget he bragged about flying over the board. who approves that kind of travel? The board, the chairman or the ceo?

    They could have had 40k staggered over the evening. broncos/chooks fans rolling in later and then bunnies/manly fans leaving early to go hit the roulette wheel.

    Melbourne Rebels 2024

    That’s what I was thinking too about dobbins #7 and lineout throwing. there’s many cases in club rugby I’ve seen thru out the years where you see hookers move to open side flanker or vice versa and be interchangeable - I’ve just never seen it at the pro rugby level. I think dobbins does have...

    Melbourne Rebels 2024

    If Wilkin is injured and because Zac Hough has a acl injury (so I’ve heard) Kohan Herbert is the next man up. actually a left field pick for open side flanker who I reckon would kill it in the 7 jersey - Ethan Dobbins. He is a great pilfer of the rugby ball.

    for them to break even… it’s gotta be measured by ticket sales to the stadium. The cheapest ticket was $19 USD or if you wanted a premium VVIP on the 50 yard line (with food and beverage included) they retailed for $600 USD the luxury boxes didn’t look to full… I don’t think they would of...

    the NRL media is shouldering a lot of this growth. Some absolute brain dead takes from sin city last week. 10 team USA super league being setup. Karl stefanovic & the rock have been mentioned buying team licenses NFL scouts will be in attendance (they weren’t, they were at the NFL combine)...

    I don’t think Las Vegas shelled out anything to bring the NRL over. Buzz rothfield said on one of the pre game show that it hasn’t been cheap this venture but expects in year 5 that it will pay itself off for the NRL. Not that we will see any figures. Vlandys and co will keep it close to their...
