From a player's perspective, the other issue with a rest is that the bloke replacing you has an absolute blinder. With the depth (and players with similar attributes) the Reds have in some positions, it's a real possibility. Just look at Henry sticking his hand up last week, making him difficult...

BOK can be heard confirming with the TMO that it was a "head clash only" rather than foul play, so it was looked at. Both had low body height from memory, so probably the right call - even though it deviates from what we've seen in previous years.

I'm actually not sure whether it matters - there's always the risk of low light conditions (rain, etc.)

The real-time whiplash looked equally bad

Yeah - and that's what's disappointing tbh. Might be in the minority, but club champs should be played shortly after the premiership games IMO.

Everything else aside - it's pretty rough on the premiership-winning player who misses out to parachute KB (Kurtley Beale) in, who hasn't played competitive rugby in over a year. I guess that's the reality of our current competition setup though.

Anyone got recommendations of somewhere I'm missing that provides player stats for the current season/matches? Super themselves obviously collect them, but don't publish anything other than the season's top individual performers and team stats. It's pretty damn poor tbh - it was one area where...

Boy do I have some unfortunate news for you Edit: Turns out I have some news for myself and he is in fact Wallabies eligible - missed that one

Will be on Stan as well - 3:30AESuperiorT kickoff

How could you forget the dessert of choice for the better-than-you'll-ever-be-sweetheart Tahs fans

It's genuinely hilarious how quickly the League media narrative flipped from "let him go, he's not that good anyway" to "trying to do everything to get him back"

The concept had legs, the execution less so. Not helped by covid of course

including lighting

He's got 27 caps total - so 56% of the 48 matches. Not bad considering he was out for basically two full international seasons. The injuries are of course a concern, but (touch wood) it's seeming more and more like he's on top of them. He played basically every game last season for the Reds...

It seems a bit odd to not offer a top up to a player picked in just about every Wallabies team when available for the last several years

The 'we are red' chant has to be one of the worst, most cringe chants in the history of sports teams - but fuck it's so, so good when it's humming in a tight match.

OR, and hear me out, it could indicate that they’re just having a poor start to the season

Exhibition - doesn’t mean Mike will go easy though… scary stuff

Just found out this isn’t a PPV - available to every Netflix subscriber. Will likely do absolutely insane numbers

Not even as a joke
