this was what was shown on Rugby HQ last night

agreed. an unnamed AUS ceo (I suspect it was Jim Carmichael) said after the announcement but before the meeting with the ARU that the whole idea sounded absurd and he wasn't for it. Then he came out of the meeting all smiles and saying the ARU showed them the income distribution it was a good...

I don't begrudge the SARU wanting a 6th team (much) but I don't like that we are getting further and further from a comp where we see every team play each other. Is it still the same comp when the sharks wont play the saders, the tahs miss playing the bulls, and the stormers dont play the reds...

so it's the stormers bulls and sharks, plus 5 kiwi/aussie teams, right?

fans known as the Coven?

maybe we need another soft backrower?

I watched his "highlights" video yesterday. I know there's a lot less required of the attacking players in league, but he does a fair bit of running (very upright) into 2 or 3 blokes, pushing them about 1-2m and then jogging back to his spot on the wing with his back turned. Granted he made a...

Yeah, I can't see how the SA conference will provide much good rugby. Sharks v bulls or stormers will be good, but the remainder is shaping up to be pretty average (whos getting up at 3am for pampas v Tokyo?) So we have an overall dilution of quality product which I can't see is good for the...

to make this even better, there is a rumour that SA will be guaranteed a finalist. So we may have a semi and final in each conference, with the 2 conference winners to play off as overall champ

couldn't we have dropped an asian team into the AUS conference and an Argo team in the Kiwi conference, and kept 3 conferences of 6, running pretty much as it currently is? Is it a requirement to make the competition more complicated? Is this to keep the rabble from understanding the game and...

So who do we get to coach next season. I'm working on the assumption that cheika can't go the rest of this year without telling someone to fuck off....

I wouldn't worry about that, its pretty much impossible to get drunk there anyway

go on, money where your mouth is. http://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/Show.aspx?sh=WARAHURR14#.U19JRfmSx8F platinum tickets for $62ea, or take the whole family to GA seats for $55

is it better to turn your back on the team and not support them because the admin is crap? Do you not support the team when their goalkicker misses? or when the lineout is rubbish?

Mate, that's a pretty poor attitude. They slighted you 8 years ago so you refuse to support them? If you'd continued going to games you'd know the member system is different to that now in any case.

it wouldn't kill you to do the dishes once in a while either

here's my problem with your post: The stands are filled with the passionate waratah fans, and there's only about 12-15,000 of them. If the NSWRU want to increase profits they need to get the "crossover" fans. I'd define these fans as: 1 - general sports fan - follows league/AFL mainly, but will...

my mate took that internship. He's in his mid 30s, and had to report to kids in their early 20s (who were on salary). Loved working for a sports team he loved, but couldn't keep working for no income and it quickly became apparent there was no potential of a paid gig with the tahs. Has some...

I'd love to have the ability to drop Robinson, but Tilse? Really? I don't think so, and neither does Robbo, so he gets away with general laziness. It'd be great to drop Dennis too, but that won't happen either - There'd be too much disruption stripping him of the captaincy mid season when there...

Never makes the final either
