RugbyPass article (so take it with a pinch of salt) saying Luke Jones is returning to Australia. No mention of team. He’s 31, so still has some footy in him but wouldn’t be the strangest age to retire. Would offer good quality to most of the squads.

International companies still work in their own national silos. Cadbury Australian couldn’t care to much if Cadbury UK is getting exposure for been on the Aus shirt. On the same note, Cadbury Aus will only care about how many people in Aus are watching. This drives commercial revenue for Aus to...

I’m in Melb atm and went straight to the Imperial. Always shows games.

The top non news program of the day. Add regional viewers and digital watchers (Stan/9Now) and it’s a very good figure.

Georgina Robinson on offsiders just said she expects 9/Stan to come out in support this week of RA potentially abandoning SRP (Super Rugby Pacific). Big news if it happens

Contrary to opinion I thought McReight was only a pass mark. Absolutely sensational in the second half but one of the worst players on the field in the first. He won’t be any closer to the wallabies squad with that game than he was pregame. His support game was obviously strong for his 2 try’s...

Gibbon about the only guy who’s got the upper hand of their opposite so far

We got absolutely minced up front. Just because a player pops in the scrum doesn’t mean he’s at fault. Plus if it was legit skullduggery the issues would of remained when the new TH came on, which it didn’t. They demolished us upfront, complaining about other wise is like saying I know they...

Anyone doubting the scrum penalties is having a laugh. We got absolutely minced in that area, it was clearly a player issue because the reserve TH immediately fixed the issue.

Fix the scrum up for the first 45mins and win by 30

He’s at risk of been yellowed again and then red carded

Someone take that prop off. He’s having a shocker. Potentially responsible for all 21 points

Grealy and Gordon the clear standouts atm.

Think read today that Perth looking at 45-50k range in sales. A good result on Saturday should lead to sell out at Bris/Syd. I’ll be at Suncorp

Just my gut feel than anything said.

Let’s end this discussion. I work with media data in Aus and NZ. NRL is comfortably the 3rd most watched sport in NZ, based on regular eyeballs. Super Rugby and cricket both have between 12-15% of the population engaged. NRL is between 8-10% and soccer is dramatically lower. This is probably...

Atko saying Hegarty potentially to Force

I feel a little guilty for mentioning it as I’m one for definitely 2nd chance and 3rd chance at times. But doesn’t mean an * can’t be next to his name. Agree RSA it’s not talked about enough or looked into enough in the rugby world.

Sio - Fainga'a/Kaitu’u - Robertson would be a good front row. Desperately need some depth on that tho Pretty confident Sio will stay in Aus Tahs have Bell, so unless he wants second fiddle again. Rebels have Gibbon and Orr so solid enough plus Gibbon when fit has impressed. Surely a 50/50...

In a strange way always been skeptical of his arms since he was a caught steroid user. admittedly a long time ago
