NZ to BA direct - 12 hours. Barely any difference between that and RSA - ARG, and only a couple of hours more than East Coast Australia to Sunwolves territory.

Surely must be injured - there's no way Volavola is picked ahead of him. I'm glad that Jack gets another crack at FB. Also noticed on IG that Fereti Sa'aga has travelled as front row cover.

I posted it (mistakenly) in the TV Ratings thread, but I think that this has the potential to be a gamechanger for Australian Rugby fans http://www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/afl/more-news/watch-every-afl-game-live-with-your-herald-sun-subscription/news-story/cece3d8e64e0a67ea9047dd737891d0f

Oisin is seriously talented. Played in the Australian Rugby Sevens team at the Youth Commonwealth Games in Samoa, 2015.

And you lose MTV, Fox 8... hahaha

Really interested to see this pop up in the last two days. There's also a version which gives you the League Channel instead of Fox Footy. Surely this will be a good buy for people who don't want to pay the $60 a month for Foxtel but want to watch Super Rugby, even though I assume it won't...

Looking for positives, I liked what I saw from English, Maddocks, Hodge & Debrecezeni at times

First game back from a two-year drugs ban for Chilliboy Ralepelle

I don't think any element of Retallick's performance last night was up to Super Rugby standard. An indictment on the lack of second row options in Aus that he even got a run

As a neutral, I completely disagree. In fact, I've even pegged down NAW as a genuine Wallaby bolter

By my reckoning, the only Super Rugby capped players not selected for this game are Volavola, Siliva & Snowden. Hardly earth-shattering depth. The rest are injured.

Appreciate it

Link please mate? i'm not familiar with the t2 forum

Scott Gale would be a good signing IMO

Sure, I probably didn't elaborate very well and your response is entirely fair. I meant short-termism in that the only way to combat being in a non-traditional Rugby state is to sign the best youngsters from interstate a year earlier than they would be picked up there rather than invest...

I only used Cam as an example, but I can tell you that he would have happily re-signed in Melbourne. He had no interest in moving interstate again; it was either Melbourne, or relocate back to Sydney, or overseas. But yes, he was certainly happy to be picky about where that might be overseas...

To be fair, i think we're just as guilty in Australian Rugby of giving up on players from professional ranks too easily. For example, Cam Crawford is comfortably good enough to be in most Aussie teams' best 23, but was let go by the Rebels so that they could free up the squad room to secure...

I think Dan is more than happy with his annual 5 and a half month holiday!

There is not a single person in the squad earning $92,000. Bill's quotes from last week about both the men and the women were completely incorrect. Including before tax, including grants (performance & appearance related), 90% of the squad;s salaries do not come close to that figure. Really...

Just because Bill said it, it doesn't make it true. Those figures are completely incorrect.
