Dennis is too slow I think. You can only be that slow if you play a really heavy game and dennis doesn't. Fardy and Kimlin are not nearly as proven as higgers. Higgers is also a rock at the lineouts, he is probably the reds best jumper. If Palu is injured, I think Mowen absolutely deserves...

Shannon Walker use to absolutely kill it in qld cup but like disco said he never really cemented a spot at the titans. He was good though wasn't he, so was Allan "the butcher" faalavaau and Sean McMahon as well. Matt Lucas's crisp passing got the Australians on the front foot a few times which...

Slim is on the same side as reds fans, I thought this day would never come.

Sounds like a huge mistake by the school. Parental support is integral to successful school sporting programs. Planning to fail if you ask me.

I dont think Vuna and Lojo are up to the standard really, I think they will get dropped once cips and inman are fit.

That tackles made stat they put up towards the end was telling, rebels had made 2.5 times as many tackles as the highlanders.

Rebels were gash in the second half, highlanders deserving winners. Marius Jonker is the new Byrce Lawrence. Totally cocked that game up for both teams - missed about 4 or 5 clear forwards passes, no ruck control, missed a few clear knock ons (one from the rebels that was absolutely dropped...

It wasn't even a yellow card. If he gets a ban for that the judiciary should be burnt to the ground. Rebels paying some dumb rugby at the moment. They need to take control of the game.

Mowen, Higgers and Pocock for me. They have been consistently pretty decent - bodes well for our backrow come June.

There would be far less sponsorship if it was structured like this. Why would say a small law firm or plumbing business sponsor schoolboy rugby in general rather than just the school that the business owner sends their kid to? Lots of the smaller sponsorships would simply disappear. Every...

Reds just passed 30 thousand. Pick up your game tahs - you're dragging the chain.

While I've never seen sponsorship on a jersey like in the original picture, pretty much all the big private school sporting programs are sponsored in some way. I've seen many rowing 8's with sponsors logos along the side - I agree it does look a bit tacky. Like barbarian said - often you see...

I think some the best rugby the brumbies have played this year was that passage of play against the cheetahs when they were attacking the opposition line for multiple phases. I think it was early in the second half and prior was the scrum half. He had excellent control of the situation. The...

I agree prop and out-centre are where we are weak. They are defiantly areas to focus the recruiting for next year - prop especially. But just because qld have some good players now does not mean they can take their eye off the ball. Already we have lost 3 scrumhalves in Kingi, McKibbin and Prior...

Obviously competition is fierce for spots in the reds squad. But it would be a crime against nature if a few young Queenslanders are not bought into the reds set-up in the coming years. Topping the list are C.Browning and S.McMahon. One would hope they pick up EPS spots next year - or maybe...

With the salary cap now nearly 5 million, it will be possible, but I suspect the tahs finances are going to shit at the moment for a number of reasons, so maybe not. If tahs fans had a choice would you keep both of Palu and Dennis (as well as L. Timani) and lose a player like Mumm out of the...

I dont know if Matt Lucas will play professional footy - might end up a bit small. I hope Faalavaau go's to the rebels as I think he's a Melbourne boy, he's a pretty handy player. So Wessels and Stirzacer are presumably on the tahs hit list. They still need a 3rd flyhalf to replace hangers...

Can one of the more knowledgeable nsw based posters comment on any long term options at 9 and 10 that the tahs might be looking into/should look into? Are there any star schoolboys lined up for EPS or academy spot?

Ryan giggs attributes yoga for allowing him to play professional football in his late 30's. His only regret is that he didn't start earlier. I thought about doing yoga once, but couldn't bring myself to go. A mate went once and apparently the women fart heaps and he just lost it every time one...

The inclusion of Van Humphries pleases me, as Van's ability to roll C*nts could prove the difference this weekend. Have to admit I am a bit worried about how many minutes he is able to play nowadays. Perhaps the team doctor might make sure there is bit of scaring in the nose in case a...
