Yep and that’s all they managed the first time round , with a narrow 33-31 loss to GPS and 53-7 hiding handed out by UQ. Just saying a win for Bond today over Brothers keeps it interesting, it gets extra juicy if Wests also go down.

Carter Gordon not on the team list for Wests this weekend , Jono Kent named at 10. He will see a bit of traffic headed his way from his old club. GPS hit the 10/12 channel regularly with the ball in hand. No RHP named either , at least not starting. A Bond win over Brothers would make for...

Last year with cricket they just awarded a joint premiership to those on top of the table . Can't remember off the top of my head how many games had been played.

RA means they need to have a RA contract / top up maybe?

Seeing the Wallabies are in a bubble and likely to be in NZ for some time , don't think national interest will come into dispensation for qualification for QPR finals.

Who of the Rebels’ additions will be eligible for finals Bulldog?

Yes certainly not a problem isolated to Sunnybank, but they seem to be giving up more than they are getting in return. With regard to Chibba and Horwill , they might have been tempted to play their junior footy at UQ had that been an option then. Hopefully the Taylor Bridge / Kenmore /...

Sunnybank have always had big junior numbers , but one thing I’ve noticed over the last 5-7 years is they seem to be losing some of their better juniors to other clubs by the time Colts comes around. Seen multiple occasions where lads have played for Sunnybank from U6-U14/15 , then are...

Agree , the bench is now named and no Wallaby squad members on it . The “name withheld” at 4 for Bond might be Angus Blyth , he’s been missing from QPR for a few weeks now. Would be an interesting battle between him and Hosea. Actually think Bond might be up for this . They were good for a...

Gibbon starting at LHP and Petaia at fullback , otherwise not a lot of change from last week. Haven’t named a bench at this stage .

No you are right about the Brothers’ team list , what I meant was some teams just leave up last weeks’ team until they have to upload the list for the coming week, so unless you know who played last week you can’t be sure the team lists are accurate until Friday. The Wests’ team list just came...

Those teams often stay up week to week Adam. Think the official team lists are uploaded after training tonight, even then they can change. Have a look a little later on tonight. Only extra at UQ could be Hansen , Flavel injured his knee last week against Bond last weekend. Don’t think Moore...

Mean more the players who you can actually run out wearing your colours come finals time.

Hopefully Bond grab a bit of extra help to square the ledger. Wests have Bond , GPS and UQ in the run home . Probably need to win two of them to guarantee finals , although one win might be enough. If you were keeping the same team , would be true test of form and your standing coming into...

Had a listen to the Pillar to Post podcast on the way to work this morning. Jaybor mentioned plenty of chat at Wests about the possible turn out of Rebels from the Wallabies squad having a run this weekend , plus Petaia having a run at 15 along with Vunivalu getting some match time. Could just...

QPR First XV v Wallaby Barbarian , like it!

Chippa has been training with UQ , so happy to take him . Think it would be a bitter pill to swallow if either UQ or GPS went through the regular season in the dominant way they have only to knocked off by a team come finals stacked with interstate Super Rugby players.

Yeah fair call. So JOC (James O'Connor) and McReight to Brothers , all the Rebels to Wests.......where do the Tahs and Brumbies play? Brothers and Wests I'm sure will love the help to make finals, maybe Bond put their hand up for the rest? Be a few nervous first graders waiting for a phone call this...

Even without any COVID issues Wallaby players are highly unlikely to play any QPR. The exemption being those coming back from injury might get get a run to prove match fitness. The First Bledisloe kicks off in Auckland on the 7th of August , then back to Perth on the 21st followed by...

You would think ASY (Angus Scott-Young) would kick on with Medicine if the Wallabies aren't interested by the end of 2022. Both he a Wright are very clever boys and have bright futures outside of rugby.
