    Australian Rugby / RA

    Did you read any of the comment’s that you quoted? No one is saying we don’t want Super Rugby because it’s “too competitive” ffs, we are saying is is a terrible competition on a commercial level, making it impossible for Australian Rugby to get a good TV deal. And without a good TV deal, we...

    Australian Rugby / RA

    Improve how exactly? Feel free to provide an idea other than “just play better” On top of that, this is about trying to find ways to make the Rugby product more marketable. Having a comp where less than half the teams are of any interest to the Australian public is a Hardly appealing to...

    Australian Rugby / RA

    It’s really not what you’ve said Who said we don’t want competition? We just don’t see why the Kiwi teams add to the comp from an Australian perspective It was a good measure of what a bit of rivalry and fan belief that they might win

    Australian Rugby / RA

    The biggest problem isn’t the quality of the rugby, it’s the lack of competition and tribalism with super rugby And the 40,000 fans that watched the Super rugby AU final didn’t seem to think it was “3rd rate” nor did they miss the Hurricanes

    Rugby World Cup Matches OTA

    This doesn’t really stand up to scrutiny considering there are only 3 players in their squad that are qualified through residency, and none are Australian or South African And considering all those players are far better now then they were before they got there, maybe a fair bit of development...

    Rugby World Cup Matches OTA

    Mate congrats on the win, but a score line of 96-17 between two supposedly tier one nations isn’t exactly screaming ‘best World Cup ever’

    Rugby World Cup Matches OTA

    Yeah this World Cup has been poor. No mid week games makes you feel fatigued and we are still in the pool stage. Apart from Australia losing to Fiji, there hasn’t been a single upset. And Italys performance this morning, after 20 years of 6 nations rugby, an was absolute disgrace to the sport

    Australian Rugby / RA

    Theoretically I agree, but the only way for it to work is for all 5 super teams to be owned by Rugby Australia. And I just can’t see that happening, too many egos

    Rugby World Cup Matches OTA

    No, they were just so bad. And celebrating a try when down by 90 points is a new one haha

    The midfield change does make sense to be fair. Kerevi and Petaia have been given so many chances and both have been really poor

    Imagine losing to this Italian team. They look like they have never played Ruby before

    Surprised he’s stuck with Donaldson over Gordon. Disappointed that Tupou and Skelton will miss the last game too

    RWC 2023 - All Blacks pool matches

    Yes, but they have the ultimate handbrake in Ian Foster

    Wallabies v Portugal, RWC Pool C, Mon 2 Oct 2.45AM

    Yeah, he’s a great athlete, just seems absolutely lost out there at 13, especially compared with Ikitau

    Wallabies v Portugal, RWC Pool C, Mon 2 Oct 2.45AM

    Petaia has been really poor in the 13 jersey. Ikitau is head and shoulders the best 13, but Perese can’t do any worse than Petaia has been going

    Wallabies 2024

    We lost to them by 3 points this year. The world famous CLOSE LOSS For reference, Dave “he was building” Rennie lost to Argentina by 31 points last season. But I’m sure that wasn’t his fault

    Wallabies 2024

    What a bunch of nonsense All you are doing is making excuses for Rennie because he is a New Zealander I’m not a “fanboy”, as I have said numerous times Eddie Jones has been a failure. The fact you can’t even admit Rennie didn’t do a good enough job just shows how biased your take is. Nothing...
