I think being in Melbourne can only help. If his profile down here was as big as any of the Storm's Big 4, it would still only mean that the odd fan may recognise him as he walked down the street. Whilst he would have taken a back seat to the soccer boys back in London to some degree, it will be...

Brumbies are just scared of how good we will be in our first season. :fishing Seems to me like if this is true it will be the beginning of the end of the agreement. Due to the number of internationals on the Rebels roster at the moment, they are going to likely be net accumulators of talent from...

Is 13 Diggers preferred position? I remember him with the number 13 on his scrum cap the games he played there.

Only Rebs tourist is Phipps. I'm going to throw one up to at least start a bit of debate about this. I'll admit I don't know alot of the team, or what many of those I do know have been up to lately, so basically I have just taken a relatively uninformed stab in the dark: 1 Weeks 2 Freier...

Rebel Army are reporting he is here on facebook. http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=658741978#!/rebelarmy/posts/161917927165988 I have been mentally calling him princess Danny due to his late arrival. Hope he soon does the right stuff to make me drop that, like train his arse off. If Gareth...

And even if he was, and Robbie utilised the bench as much as he has all year (ie not at all), Gits would still probably manage to poll votes.

If the sea of red at Etihad for the last lions tour is anything to go by, we could sell out both stadiums at the same time and probably only need about ten locals to show up. Magnificent atmosphere though.

So if Van Humpries gets a test on the EOYT will he: a) be the oldest Wallaby debutant http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-sport/van-poised-for-historic-wallabies-debut-20101014-16lhm.html or b) not be the oldest Wallaby debutant...

I liked the fact that they still presented the bowl and plate for the non-medal round countries. Kept the spirit of 7s in the tournament the whole way through. One of the things I have always liked about 7s is the smaller nations having a bit of success on a big stage and some of the moments it...

http://www.melbournerebels.com.au/ArticleDetails/tabid/270/ArticleID/394/Default.aspx So the Rebels are finally into it as a squad (well except for Mr Cipriani), and judging by the photos attached to the article are doing their camp at the not so shabby surrounds of Erskine House at Lorne. I...

As far as I remember they never conducted one. The AFL are generally right into all the clubs finances. They have fined someone for some sort of breach almost every year since the salary cap came in. Just for St Kilda I can remember they fined them once, probably during Waldron's time, because...

I just want to see the jersey with the logo on to see if it masks some of the horribleness. From Rebels web site: http://www.melbournerebels.com.au/ArticleDetails/tabid/270/ArticleID/392/Default.aspx

Well Danny Corcoran didn't last long at the Rebels. http://news.theage.com.au/breaking-news-sport/corcoran-joins-hird-at-bombers-20101004-163pn.html Back off to Essendon in the AFL to mentor his their Golden Boy James Hird as he fails as head coach. Wonder who we will get next, and if we can get...

I'm up in Sydney for the weekend, so I'm planning on heading in with my sister and her boyfriend to try and convert them, although the AFL grand final replay may have scuttled the plan of actually getting them there.

Ouch. Couldn't find any data on distances (rowed and run), but knowing how painful Head of the Yarra was (8.6km race), or even a standard 2km, picking up the boat at the end and running to the next race seems insane. Loved the hairpin bend in the clip.

It was falling apart a bit at the time I stopped playing. I remember having to borrow players from Harlequins for a game against Melbourne if I recall correctly. Talk about sleeping with the enemy. I think they recovered for a while after that, but the schools never seemed to really feed into...

Agreed (on the disagreeing). I played colts at Powerhouse about ten years ago until work got in the way. Also did a bit of coaching of the U16s at Melbourne High for a couple of years after I left.

The season results for those guys are pretty incredible. 32 games with 1 loss, 1807 points for, 221 points against. Obviously there is a huge gap between the best and the worst in US college Rugby, but that is still impressive. Let alone winning 25 from 31 national titles. So apart from BYU...

I think the tour could have been of some assistance getting the new combinations together outside of a training environment, but I am also happy that our first ever game will be played at home where the fans can see it. Also like the fact that the Crusaders have maintained their mini-tradition...
