Ditto but I'd prefer Slim's selection. We know what Phipps offers. Why not see what Powell can do with a couple of bench cameos.

I personally think it should. A yellow card is given for a professional foul. BB is showing a repeated pattern of behaviour. I confess I didn't see the third yellow (just the two on the goal line which were both intention knock-ons/borderline offside). Surely as a sport we want to stop...

That makes zero sense. What stops a player from tanking it and earning a red in the last few minutes of the game after his third yellow of the season in the same game?

I know what I am about to say will probably sound like madness so please read it as ponderings rather than a well-thought idea: What would happen if the ARU let Super Rugby burn? If we used the NRC as the tier below the Wallabies and aim to sell the TV rights to the NRC to whoever will buy it...

There are bidets in the toilets.

Indeed. I wonder how much input the ARU had in the coaching appointments for the Force. I am guessing it was quite a lot. Regardless, I am really happy with our current coaching team. There is an edge to our play that I haven't seen since 2014. Would the Reds have ended up with Richard Graham...

I agree NTT. Slim makes a good argument why the Brumbies should be preferred to the Rebels- but not the Force. Couple of points I'd like to add: Coaching development: Explain more on this one, Slim. Aren't you guys looking at poaching our coach if the Force fall? I personally think claiming...

It still wouldn't be competitive. I can't speak for Victoria, but the loss of the Force will send the local rugby scene back into the dark ages. Current local Western Force players will move interstate or overseas. The interstate ones will be unlikely to return because they will have made a home...

Not to defend Timani, but you have to wonder where the line is. He clearly aims to hit someone with his knee, but the contact is fairly negligible. Would someone receive the same penalty if the lash out with hands/fists and make a similar low level of contact. Should the facial grab have been a...

This is where it is interesting. If the Rebels are cut, they'll sue and the Forcd breathe a sigh of relief. If the Force are cut, we'll sue for breach of the Alliance Agreement and I'd bet my right nut that Cox will sue for being embroiled in this saga. Better to just be sued once if you ask me.

I am glad the Kings have put a few late ones on. Goes to show that anyone (i.e. not just the Force) can have quick fire tries against them if they let the game get too loose. Feel like the Reds deserve the BP though.

Raining tries. I am loving seeing Quade Cooper with his confidence back. Just stirring ;)

If you had a few spelling errors and a couple of capitals, BLR, I'd be worried you had Shigginitis.

It's ironic. Crowds for Kings games are likely to be low in Aus and NZ, but from this week and last, they are bloody entertaining affairs.

I can't see this ever happening and I doubt the Sunwolves would be interested but increase that 4-6 to 10 and I would get on board with that. Not by preference but it potentially would allow the Spirit to continue to operate. The Sunwolves are poor and would be better for a handful of the Force...

A big part of me thinks the Force should just walk away because fighting could be a scorched earth policy. But then another big part of me thinks maybe destruction is our path to transformation. A la Ra's al Ghul in Batman begins. But then the risk is that Tah Man will come along to counter the...

God. If I wasn't already resigned to the fact that the Force are goners and anything but is a bonus, I would be tearing my hair out about the numbskullery of the situation. Pulver is going full Trump on this one.

In honour of the how the day has gone so far, maybe take that fluoxetine as a suppository.

I think you'll be fine. Your set piece is probably better than ours and your team will have seen what the Kings can do. I think they took us by surprise a bit today.

An evil part of me wonders- if the Force had been on the receiving end of that penalty try, would your head literally have exploded a la cheap horror films? I love you man.
