i'd say henderson will start with Blake on the bench.

backline still will be phipps cipriani vuna o'connor inman mitchell gerrard with kinghi coming on with 30 left to open things up i'm not that worried. Inman looks to me like he'll show up Carter. immensely unimpressed by him against the reds and rather upset he was in my fantasy team

great moves what are the tahs at? ha

I am also platinum. I've moved my seats from last years location (section 7) due to the worst fan in the universe also being in section 7. unfortunately when i rang up this year, it was confirmed that this young wretch had already renewed.....to say I was distraught is an understatement. though...

that he is an absolute gun with a multitude of talents and the ability to open up defences and that he should have been looked at as a backup winger of 9 or 10 or 15 for the wallabies (not bench, but out of the 22 cover) he showed it late last year and again saturday that he just absolutely...

one of the biggest jokes.

Agree with Stirzaker comments and double agree with Kingi. he is superb and i now fully understand bob dwyer's comments on him last year.

my understanding from an "in the know" source is that DC, while much better this year, is still mentally not in the right space and the rebels managment still have concerns. They've got him living with a more senior player at the moment as both parties agreed it wasn't good for him to keep...

I arrived to the game 25 minutes late. thoughts were as such Gerrard looks good again. regardless of his lack of pace, his role will probably be and should be a winger/fullback as was mentioned on her previously. he set up a few good breaks, made a couple and fielded the ball well. inman looks...

i disagree. we can't have every pre-season game every pre-season in melbourne. this is an away pre-season game. might as well increase the club exposure by going to a new market, rather than heading over to christchurch where the brand isn't going to grow. we've had every pre-season game at...

rebels to play one pre-season game against the crusaders in each of 2013 and 2014 singapore under a sponsorship agreement interesting!

thought this was about todd clever too....

as long as they are fit and combine well for round 1 and onwards - i personally don't care how they do it. but i'd prefer it be lower cost and drawing fans into the game. $25 to see a trial match at aami is pointless. i would absolutely love to see a pre-season match at melbourne uni oval.

to clarify, i am whole-heartedly against a NAB cup style pre-season. i was just pointing out why crowds are bigger there and how the crowds could be bigger, if wanted, for rebels pre season games. I'd rather see 4 pre-season games have the last one in melbourne and 3 in the country -...

NAB cup is meaningless though. the afl is putting lipstick on a pig with that one. everyone knows its pointless but the afl designates some "meaning" to it. I'd bet if you had reds v waratahs final warm up game playing a proper game, the crowds would be just as good. all the fans want is to...

If he comes good we won't have a half bad front row - weekes, henderson, blake, ahololei, freir and robinson. I don't think our front row is anywhere as bad as people make it out to be (cue the "yoda saved your front row last year" comments) I think where the forwards fell apart last year was...

yikes....don't log in for a morning and look what i miss. its a trial game - if rebel army numbers were down for it, no one cares. It just seemed to be an observation to me since he who commented is, as most are, probably use to seeing a lot of you there. it's ok if some take a night off...

cautiously optimistic after this.... Cautiously because we put in a good effort against the crusaders last year in the pre-season.... delve probably gone - just a fact. if its reported twice, there's probably a reason. neither here nor there though as we've got a full season ahead of us with...

I'd hope all 6,000 of those are renewals to be honest, otherwise that is a pretty dissapointing figure. what were the membership numbers last year? I would have thought 10,000 to be the minimum. I know its the second season, but brand recognition of the squad in melbourne is very strong. The...

any idea on where the membership numbers are at? ditto for the rest of the australian teams? i know queensland is 4,400 away from 30,000......that is legit! if you read the Herald today, you'd see that Gold Coast Suns membership numbers are down on the same time last year. GWS have less...
