oh...if we don't win this i'll be very very dissapointed. this is ours for the taking and we can leverage it into a second win in a row against the force in two weeks time.

i don't know that I would change anything about the squad this week. will be great if we can throw out the same names and get a bit of consistency. I thought kingi was, no suprises here, great at 9. while his passes might not be as crisp as phipps', his service is a lot faster and he offers...

he might not translate to spanish, but that's why he has an interpreter. this is a fantastic move by the argies. can only benefit them and their coaching set up. tempted to try and get myself up to the Coast for this match!

we have a coach....can't see us opting for coach number 3 in three years.

most who have been advocating for kingi, have like myself, been advocating for him for awhile. in King Richard we trust.

I agree with the first part, but generally i just think kinghi is a better player. Stirzaker is surely too young and raw at the moment and will need some further development. I would suggest Phipps can't afford another bad game this week and certainly can't afford three in a row before being...

Brought about from my desire to not see cips start at 10. That puts JOC (James O'Connor) in at 10 and a need to fill the 12 gap…..options are, with mortlock out, inman to 12, gerrard to 12, or Huxley to 12….if you’ve ever read a post by me you’ll know I don’t want to see Huxley at 12 again. So gerrard or...

Re Vuna - has superber prospects. I agree, he's not there yet. still too much of a league defender. Mitchell - his work rate is great and i actually find he usually makes a line break or pulls in a couple of defenders. he doesn't leave his defenders for dead and cruise off into open play, but...

I read he had a sore quad from the warm up hence, him not playing. great news he might be back though. Do you have any idea about Lipman? probable squad (what i'd like to see) 1 Henderson 2 Freier 3 Weeks 4 Pyle 5 Campbell 6 Jones 7 Saffy 8 Delve 9 Phipps 10 Cips (JOC (James O'Connor)) 11Vuna 12 JOC (James O'Connor) (Inman...

Mine was laced with sarcasm for those who couldn't tell. I think we'll be more competitive in general than we were this weekend, but its very much an uphill battle for us. I am immensely unconfident in our halves pairing after last week. the modicum of faith i had in cipface after his...

Egregoiusly offensive. Wholesale changes at the Rebels this week combined with returns from injury will result in an inspired and determined new look Rebels outfit registering the upset of the season. Harris' boot can only get worse and Radike can only get slower. Both facts that will...

interesting....age? the target of my distaste was a youngish fellow who was there with his dad. knows what the rebels should be doing every time and yells it at them as well as whats wrong with what they actually did. i took him to be a private school boy who plays rugby at a poorly rated...

i haven't seen king in the locks, but i wouldn't think, at first blush, that we lose much. campbell is solid, but probably not a full gamer. king aside, jones can play lock and even chamberlain. agree re phipps. he looked off. don't think danny's form helped him though.

foot in mouth re tom carter.... I thought our forwards performed reasonably well (ex chamberlain). delve is superb. i just wish he had a bit more pace, but he is a great 8 and an excellent leader. Jones is exciting me and with saffy getting some time at 7 i like our flanks. real lack of spark in...

i have not been a fan of hux from the start. this is nothing new. he was a great player but he's past his peak (in a valley way off in the woods beside the mountain to be precise) .nothing wrong with calling a spade a spade. I'd rather not talk up a bad player just because he's on my team. I...

don't forget the kick straight into touch when simple hands were on.

did not realise lipman was injured.....don't like that. any word on why saffy is on the bench? no lipman and no ged hurts our pack for sure. i like both our locks. i like tom chamberlain. he was great in the ITM from the few games of his that i saw. delve is a warhorse. he'll go 100% day in...

oh god....huxley is on the bench why did we get rid of betham.

tom carter did rip us apart last year....and i believe we had Julian Huxley at 12....the turnstile of turnstiles. JOC (James O'Connor) is a massive improvement and cipriani has looked markedly better this pre-season. actually making tackles! Dave Dennis - will admit, i haven't seen much of him to warrant an...

let's get this thread back on track. have the rebels announced their team? key matchups? The front row springs to mind. I am looking forward to see cliffy palau v gareth delve. quite different number 8s and it will be great to see a bit of head to head between two hard men. I haven't seen much...
