    Where to for Twiggy Rugby?

    Kudos is not due to the ARU in any part of this process. You don't get kudos for ceasing to be destructive.

    Cape Town 7's: 9 & 10 December

    One step forward, two steps back. Frustrating! Just one criticism, what's the point of having both Longbottom & Stannard on the field?

    Cape Town 7's: 9 & 10 December

    Interesting that Stannard has only 10 more caps than Holland. I would have thought he was 50 in front. Nothing distorts history more than a faulty memory...........

    Dubai 7s

    I thought Kennewell was great when he played direct, he just needs to stop the side way scoots that he does a few times, he's a ball runner not a play maker. Longbottom went well for a debutante, as did ODonell & Hood. Plenty of upside there. Killingworth & Anderson were our best IMO. I...

    Senate enquiry into Australian Rugby

    You're posting history shows that you do have a particular view. Which is fine, but denying it makes it difficult to take anything you post seriously.

    Dubai 7s

    Creditable undersells the Ozzie performance big time. It was very nearly a two try win to Australia. We are undoubtedly a much better unit this year.

    I think you'll find their reluctance to settle has more to do with the impact it might have on their re election prospects than on legal grounds. There's also the small matter of not being able to register new signings until they cull existing contracted players until they comply with the...

    If you said, no experienced CEO of a large public company, with a successful track record would be interested. I might agree. But it's not a choice between a high flier or a jobs for the boys. There is a middle ground, there are plenty of talented people who'd be up for the job who don't live...

    Her role at the Bulldogs was not nearly as complex as the ARU role. Bulldogs are a mess, she was either no good at her role, or too weak to deal with the chairman, or more likely a combination of the two. So they'll probably give it to her.

    They provided a giant screen on back of a truck at the televised SS games this year.

    Funny abou that, cos the controversy about the land deal didn't really warrant much attention did it?

    Wouldn't be a problem. Tahs couldn't draw that sized crowd at NSO. SCG members are a large chunk of the crowd at SFO

    disappointed but not surprised, does not begin to express my dismay. Seriously, we are truly fucked. Every single thing Clyne has his fingerprints on, has been a clusterfuck. It's hard to see how things might improve.

    Senate enquiry into Australian Rugby

    which will be three fifths of two thirds of sfa. They needed a hand out from Twiggy to pay their costs, it's not like they have investments or property.or a sneaky mill or two in term deposits. Edit: I actually asked what was the downside of them NOT paying, so the answer isn't that they have to...

    Senate enquiry into Australian Rugby

    Too cryptic for me. Your op inferred that they should have been aware of the downside if they lost, but what is the downside for them in not paying the ARUs costs? What don't judges care about?

    Senate enquiry into Australian Rugby

    Anyone that might be concerned about it, would know the background, and would more than likely support their decision not to fund the ARU costs. What's the downside if this particular entity is liquidated?

    Senate enquiry into Australian Rugby

    At worst incompetence? Incompetence is a sacking offence in every other job in the country. There's a bit of me wishing that the ARU actions were more of a result of them being underhanded and sneaky for as you say,some not yet known benefit. Cos the alternative is they are fucking clueless...

    On the very slim chance you weren't having a bit of fun...... Yes, all great blokes,doing their very best, it's almost rude to critique the value of their output. On that basis Peter Fitz should still be starting for the Wobblies. Why is Rugby administration the only position in the nation...

    Maybe Cheika has looked at his choice of backups for 10, to say the cupboard is bare is an understatement.
