    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Maybe at this stage it's a pipe dream since as long as the ARU remains solvent, they'll deny deny deny any attempt to set up a rival Union comp, and World Rugby will back them up, particularly if there any attempts to get New Zealand, Fiji, Japan or Singapore, whose Unions will all have a series...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    If and/or when the comp emerges, I'll be 100% behind it, sounds exactly like what Rugby in this country needs. I don't see the ARU sanctioning it, and I don't see World Rugby setting the precedent to undermine an important member, or members if it's as international as Twiggy's ambition/ego...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    For a Very VERY long time, anybody who'd played Rugby league at ANY level got locked out for life. World Rugby knows how to hold a grudge. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    WorkingClassRugger would know best, but I'm about 80% sure that World Rugby stepped in and looked to shut down Major League Rugby or whatever it was when the USAR refused to endorse (there's a better way of phrasing but I'm hungover).

    Wallabies v All Blacks, Saturday 19th August, ANZ Stadium Sydney

    That was a very flattering last 30 minutes. Hansen will be spitting blood. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Without being too weasily: Before: $XX million a year for 142 games across 4 conferences, with an 8 teams finals series. Now: $XX million a year for 125 games across 3 conferences with a 6 team final series. So they're paying a different rate for a different product. Can't proclaim to...

    Melbourne Rising 2017

    It would be a shame if a flyhalf couldn't kick, hopefully McGregor can take that duty. Paisami kicked for the Samoan U20s. Maybe if he gets a start or two. Otherwise not a clue. If worst comes to worst, it should be an opportunity for a Maddocks, or even a Stirzaker, to increase what they...

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. (Insert dot dot dot here because GAGR doesn't like it) $20 million is not a lot of money if it means "giving up" Bledisloes and 1/4 of it goes straight back to the Rebels. On the other hand, without any obligation, or hell, ability whatsoever to get the Rebels' License...

    Force 2018

    Pretty much. Went for the equal share of broadcast revenue in the foolish hope that everything would sort itself out reasonably quick, then doubled down in hopes that new areas = enough new money. Fundamentally, ALL of the boards spent too much time and money trying to make a competition that...

    No Jeffries, No Jordy, No Pat, no Cruze, no Tumualealiifano are the ones that are missing at a glance While Rory O'Connor is the most interesting inclusion. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
