    The dying - perhaps death - of Rugby in Australia.

    I grew up loving both Rugby & League, League these days just bores the tits off of me and the commentary is getting more & more dire. I just can't get interested to watch a full game any more, let alone actually attend a match,where as the Rugby, I'm loathe to get up to fetch a drink or go to...

    Rebels v Reds RD 4 2013

    To be fair to the ref, the TMO looked at it & suggested the penalty reversal. While the Argie ref didn't have a great game and poor decisions went both ways I think he'll only improve with experience & I think it's great to see new reffing blood in the ranks.

    Rebels v Reds RD 4 2013

    Higgers will be ineffective this week, everyone at teh Reds knows his game downpat.

    Rebels v Reds RD 4 2013

    This is what I'm thinking. It's a bit of an outrage that he's not at least in the squad this week, he was brilliant when he came on far too late last weekend. It seems to be obvious to most observers other than the ones that make the decisions.

    Or Ian Prior. He's still wasting away on the bench at the Brumbies. Coulda stayed home & done that & have his chance now!

    Rebels v Reds RD 4 2013

    Apparently he was very impressive in the Reds A game against the Tongans, Jets.

    I'm not the one doing the grizzling mate, I couldn't give a rats what night the Tah's play.... refer to the Tah supporters doing all the whinging about the scheduling of the game.

    Reds 2013

    Thats kind of true Ruggo, some young players make an impact straight away & others take time to settle in. But, and I believe it's a big but, a player shouldn't be persisted with just on potential alone when there are obviously better options available. Especially when those better options are...

    Reds 2013

    Toua has done nothing with his three or four chances he's had at this level, two starts this year with little to show for the reputation that precedes him. And an absolute shocker on Friday night! Morahan, Harris & Jono Lance should be far ahead in the pecking order. Maybe he'll come good, maybe...

    Just having a little laugh Cyclo, it all should have been sorted way before the season started, I'm sure it affected the Tah's bottom line last night..... perhaps I should have added "Not that there's anything wrong with that" :-)

    Well that's what the discussion was about.....

    Did you miss the bit where I said I found it amusing?

    Just face the facts. The Tah's changed the schedule, this is why there is no game on prime time tonight. The Reds would have had no interest in swapping nights. They still pulled a crowd of over 30k with crap weather about. You guys are clutching at straws, it's rather amusing.

    :confused: It's a lot more positive than 11k!!!! Make all the excuses you like but the Reds will average 30k again this season, worry about the fickle Sydney crowd first mate.....

    The dying - perhaps death - of Rugby in Australia.

    It was the Waratah's request to move to Friday night so their players could partake in the gay mardi gras on Saturday night. The Reds were already scheduled to play on Friday & had to be pushed back to the later time slot to accommodate this unusual request..... it sure didn't get the Tah's a...

    Reds vs Hurricanes RD3

    I get all goosebumpy & hair standing on back of the neck when a crowd gets going by itself, it's one of the great appeals of seeing sport live in a stadium and has gotten me excited since I was a kid. This clown with his commercial radio trained voice screaming at decibels that drowns out...

    Reds vs Hurricanes RD3

    Or he's suffering a bad case of Waratahitis. Far too early in the season to be talking about who's better than who. I like them all & Australia's depth in opensides continues it's rich tradition.

    Reds vs Hurricanes RD3

    I'm right with you there Dan, annoys the hell out of me. I'll get a long to a game or two but I didn't renew my membership this year because I didn't want to face this carry on all season again. Let the game be the entertainment, let the crowd cheer & chant when they want to & when it's warranted.
