    Wallabies 2020

    I am happy to have one on the bench for lesser games for exposure if they continue to perform at super level. Thought I explained that in the later paragraphs. Maybe it is a bit unclear I might edit it

    Reds 2020

    From memory, and someone confirmed this from their memory, Jock hasn't kicked since school in the 2nds.(could be wrong but I dont ever recall him kicking for UQ) In saying this I also heard along the grapevine (by someone tapped in) that the new kicking coach is trying to change the kicking...

    Reds v Sharks, Rnd 5 2020, Lang Park Sat 29 7:15 EDST

    All valid points mate. I just think that Campbell is adding soo much to the Reds attack at the moment that he cannot be left out of the 15. I think his kicking will improve as he is a student of the game. I am also a believer of players being eased back after injury so McReight falls into that...

    Reds 2020

    One of the owners of Newstead is an avid rugby supporter. Absolutely loved the Reds and Wallabies. I know how happy he was when they got the sponsorship for QPR, it will have broken his heart not being able to provide sponsorship in 2020 but reckon he will be stoked that his company has been...

    Reds 2020

    Agreed 15 is the position I think he will really excel at. I'll clarify my statement about his pace. He is quick and actually has very very good acceleration, I just think the extra few meters at top end pace would make his transition from super to intl a much more likely scenario.

    Regarding Jock... he was earmarked very early by the coaches at UQ as having all the skill, work ethic and brains to play a very high level. The backs and 7s coach at the time was Andrew Brown. Some may remember him. As a player he was exceptional but never got a proper go at a starting jersey...

    Reds 2020

    Agree RE: Green. I suspect he is on a very good wicket up there though, more than Tahs would/ could offer him. Smart move by him would probably be to stay there and set himself up for life financially. Good luck to him. I would like to see him have a shot at a better level though

    Jeez that looked bad. Hope it's not a neck injury. Urgh horrible

    I really respect the way Hunt plays and his general attitude on the field. Didn't try to milk it at all or carry on, he always just gets on with business.

    Super Rugby Rnd 2 2020: NSFW Waratahs vs Auckland Blues

    They dont look like they want to be there really. Tahs have a good 15, I dont get how they are this poor seems to be a real lack of urgency and concentration

    Those 2 tries were far too easy. Both looked like training runs against their C team

    Super Rugby Rnd 2 2020 Lions v Reds @ Jo'burg - Sunday 12:05am AEDT

    A bit more starch in the backline. Shouldn't be anyone getting through 10/12/13 channel. I'm interested to see how JOC (James O'Connor) goes at 10. He has great skill so should do alright, I wonder what his game management skills are like these days. I prefer him at 12 but maybe they think they need a bit more...

    Rebels 2020

    This will likely be an unpopular opinion on this thread... I don't see Hodge as a starting player. He simply isn't better than other players in each individual position. 10: Deegan and To'omua are better 12: To'omua and Meakes are better 13: English and Meakes are better 11/14 he is just too slow...

    Good shout. Given the chance he could be a great Super player. Kinda hope he heads off to england and comes back in a few years bigger and meaner with a point to prove

    Reds 2020

    The Reds really could/should pick up 3 wins from the first 5 rounds. The Lions shouldn't be a problem, they've had a huge turnover of players and look average. Jags will likely be too good at home and with the travel. Sunwolves we should beat at home as with the Sharks who only just beat likely...

    That was poor, really poor. Another performance like that and you would have to think it is proof that something is seriously wrong down there. Be it coaching and/or players and/or culture. I only saw the 2nd half and was literally laughing at some of the shit they served up. The roster they...
