I made a way too long post so I started again. I think that's a little harsh, as it's the first time we've really been able to spend money on bringing in Aussies since Higginbotham before the 2013 Season. The first 2.5 years mostly under private ownership were a shitshow in both recruitment...

I reckon they'll stick for now, what with contract obligations and all that, but they'd be fools (ARU, state bodies, Super Chairmen/CEO et al) for not making serious movements and/or commitments towards that being the primary Australian league post Super 2020.

Obviously we want to keep Rugby clubs involved, but Ashwood just isn't good enough for me, and the other grounds have significant compromises, be they distance from fans, travel distance, pitch topography/flooding/dustbowl nature whatever. Thinking outside the box given that the NPL is...

Ok, definitely biased, but I thought he was striking the ball much better that Taf (even though Taf was doing better in the pushing and pulling aspects), lineout yeah, he's not quite there yet, but hey, Taf has made a long career despite iffy throwing, and Latu seems to be on that trajectory as...

Being offside was hardly a one sided affair in that game. Otherwise I agree. Jackson so awesomely crap. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Chieks, if McMahon can't give you at least 95% intensity, there's no point having him on the field. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Don't be so harsh on Hanigan. Some players can't kick, some can't pass, some can't tackle. Hanigan's just like those blokes, it's just contributing that he can't do. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

This Test brought to you by classical Glen Jackson indecision. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

I think that's exactly what we and/or the ARU are waiting for. If the Force announce there's no more appealing, negotiations as to accomplishing that begin in earnest and when the Rebels have 6 or 7 other props on the books, then he can be released.

As I've said before on numerous threads: The only thing I'm happy about in this process is that the Rebels are alive in Super Rugby: if we'd gone, we'd be gone in entirety, no 2nd chances, and I'm happy that the VRU did everything in their power to make that the case. Everything else about the...

Nah fam. I reckon, it's as simple as the ARU thinking $200,000 in legal fees affirming in the courts that the license agreement was written the way they knew they had written it < $5,700,000 in purchasing the license outright, particularly if insolvency by 2019 was a legitimate concern as it so...

For 2019/2020. Still technically signed with us for 2018, although he may see an early release depending on who else we pick up methinks. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

As the broadcast said: average age of that backline was 20, and that forward pack pretty young too. More along the lines of: 1. 2. Jordan Uelese 3. Tetera Faulkner 4. Sam Jeffries 5. Geoff Parling 6. Lopeti Timani 7. Colby Fainga'a 8. Amanaki Mafi 9. Will Genia 10. 11. Marika Koroibete 12...

Good show from the Drua, very much hitting their stride at this stage of the comp. I'd complain about the handling and defensive errors, but given it "looks like" maybe 6, at best, of today's side will be in the Rebels best 23 next season, I'm pretty happy with that performance. Sent from my...

Rising young bodies starting to feeling the physicality. Good lessons being learned here. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Fuck me, brilliant stuff from the Drua. Kicking and handling a class above. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

A 3pm game is always broadcast on the Saturday and Sunday on Fox Sports, the others get live streamed on the website. Problem is they advertise the streaming service as if they get all the games live rather than the 2 a weekend live and them all on demand ~48-72 hours (ha!) later. Sent from...

No, they don't stream the Broadcast games. Fox Sports 1 if you can find a channel stream. Quality contest at the mo. The 7 pros with lots of youngsters (pro and ammo) is balancing out the full amateur but "all men" nicely. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
