I don't know ForceFan. I kind of agree with Slim. I think of it as a short term pain for long term gain. If World Series gets off the ground and we are in a meaningful competition next year, I think we are far better off than if we were still in Super Rugby. Being rended last year may have saved...

Fergus Lee-Warner. Reminds me a bit of a young Adam Coleman. Maybe I am just getting hopeful. Wonder how he'd go in a Super side at 6.

No offense to the guy, but I didn't rate him. He looked slow. Wouldn't judge a guy off one game alone, but not amazed so far. Really liked Rocket Rod, Tevin Ferris, Harry Lloyd and Andrew Deegan. Rodney Iona pretty nifty too.

Coaching in Japan.

No need to go there Shaker. Focus on us- forget about anyone else.

Is the new best name in Rugby Dicky Dicky Latte (Can't be bothered googling the real spelling)

19-0 to Force

Thats at NIB. Bigger crowds at Subi in the early days. Damn you GFC.

Deegan will be one to watch. Agree re: Louwrens. Hoping that with the new bench rules he gets some good game time. Quite excited to see Fergus Whatsamejig. Also Brad Lacey and Tevin Ferris as local juniors will be great to watch.

Don't you have better things to do with you time?

Is it though? Don't get me wrong, sustainability would be great, but are the cash up English and French clubs sustainable or do they just have wealthy owners/benefactors? You don't want a team to be a money pit, but the present reality is that private ownership (no, not like Cox with the...

See I don't buy that. We lost a game by the skin of the teeth in Dunedin that was not a dead rubber. Perhaps we wouldn't have won one if it wasn't a dead rubber (the 3rd game), but the fact that we came within an unfortunate kick-off receipt (personally I think Read was offending in that one) of...

Sure. That's an opinion. Here is a counter one: It is that kind of attitude that has led Australian rugby to where it is now. Let me fling a few names at you of players who weren't rated highly early on, but made an impact at International level. Scott Fardy. Julian Huxley. Dane Haylett-Petty...

Harry Scoble was the Aus U20 hooker in 2014. He is a future possible. Cameron Orr was a U20 loosehead with plenty of potential. Post RWc they'd both be possible. After Genia, there are no reliable 9s in Aussie rugby. Ryan Louwrens was the form 9 at the start of last season (until injured)...

What is black, white and red all over? The scoreboard!

What a try! Hamish Stewart!

Can I get a whoop whoop?

Great start Reds! Here to play.

Can't speak for anyone else, but I would pay BIG money to watch guys like Shiggins, Dismal Pillock, et al., watching games of rugby.

We are looking at two different points from Moneyball- although it is fair to say that both are accurate. Statistically speaking Hooper is an exceptional player and I think I have miscommunicated my point based on your and WCR's reaction. When I say the jury is still out, what I mean is that I...
