My two cents.... As a crow eater, I am unashamedly biased towards wanting to watch good rugby in my home town. I agree that the financials make it difficult for this to happen just yet. That being said, if the Governing bodies are thinking about reducing teams, it makes sense to make a...

Just signed an EPS spot with the Brums. http://www.brumbies.com.au/uncategorised/robbie-abel-signs-with-the-brumbies

Agree with this. I am very concerned that our most capped prop ever is being dished up doing his core job. I doubt we'll see Sio back, but God, Slipper needs to lift for next week

Is this for real? Same this year? I read on here that the Waratahs are contributing next to nothing to the NRC, but surely they see this comp as beneficial to identifying their future talent and creating depth....... They should be rolling out the red carpet to help all 4 Sydney teams...

I think a human centipede would throw them off their game more... and throw up their lunch...

Not sure where to post this but thought some here may find it interesting! While watching the the Germany-Georgia Euro Cup qualifier last night here in Germany, the commentator mentioned some interesting tidbits about Rugby. They are building 12 new Rugby stadiums around the country and the...

This. One of Bob Dwyers articles mentions the same thing. One of the reason ol' Bob was praising Giteau is his ability to get "second touches", that being, passing the ball, supporting the runner hard and getting the ball back. If you see Gits highlights from France nearly all of his tries...

So the NRC website has said 'around 3000' at the Vikings-Rays match. Can anyone who was there confirm the crowd? Decent crowd if true, but we all know about the ARU and their numbers.....

Replace dogs mouth with dead pig and you can become Prime Minister of the UK!

Queensland Country v Spirit According to the NRC website here : "The match in Rockhampton saw more than 2,000 fans attend the NRC clash at Victoria Park, which formed part of the 2015 Queensland Country Tour, proudly supported by the Queensland Government."

Yep yep. The point I was making is that you said it was ludicrous to relocate Soup players from city to city as it was too expensive yet here is a Sydney lad relocating to Melbourne. So I am genuinely asking where he is staying and how much it costs, and why can't this be done with the Soup...

Is this money for the Soup players or the club guys?? I may be wrong, but I thought I picked up somewhere that the Soup players are getting nothing extra as they are already on contracts and the club guys are being compensated slightly for time off work etc?

I understand this is financially difficult in year 2 and running on an oily rag, however, doesn't the Waratahs have accommodation for their players? Where is Duncan Chubb from Southern Districts staying in Melbourne??

Just to reiterate about the distribution. 11 Soup players in the XV 3 on the bench. Rising by 40+ 1. Cruze Ah-Nau (Footscray & Rebels, 9 Melbourne Rising caps) 2. Pat Leafa (Box Hill & Rebels, 12 Melbourne Rising caps) 3. Duncan Chubb (Southern Districts (NSW), 3 Melbourne Rising caps) 4. Sam...

Geez not a good look. Can we expect this again with the Rising on the weekend now that big boppers like Lopeti Timani and Luke Jones are back?? I agree with Qwerty here. I think it's incorrect to say that NSW has too many teams when other clubs have Soup players on the bench. The talent...

Beau Robinson for the Rays

Sydney Stars positivity post : At least any new recruits won't have to waste time learning the team song....

The magic happens at the 2 minute mark. I thought that was a bloody joke! Maybe they tanked last year on purpose so they didn't have to embarrass themselves with that....... fair dinkum.........

Taking it graciously. Had a great career in black, feel for the bloke but some of the new boys coming through are just too good to leave out.
