    You can't call Wales second tier without taking the same brush to the Wallabies.

    Twaddle. Yes, very likely correct. I don't think your example ties in though. There is a lot of history behind why we are where we are, and I can't argue against a less than Stirling performance by the administrators since professionalism. Started off gang-busters, not so much since. We are...

    Queensland Reds 2024

    Something I hope does not repeat - the Thorn entry typified by the Quade conflict but including other "problem" players. With a new coach coming in (I guess these things will depend on applicants and if no choice then there is no choice) they should be vetted on a desire to work with and to...

    Queensland Reds 2024

    Adam, I don't think it's a much as 10% but whatever the %age it is that last significant bit. It is similar in the game play, some of what we do, like the kicking game recently, has levels of near-perfection and effectiveness but then fails to deliver at the whistle. I actually wonder if Thorn...

    Queensland Reds 2024

    I think it absolutely should be an overarching policy and like Adam I think it s a very good plan. It imo needs to be much more strongly established than "sentiment". If things shake up with NZ and player availability I think it would be even more important. The Reds are not just a professional...

    Super Rugby 2023 QF: Blues vs NSW Waratahs

    All a bit “meh” at this point but I thought the defensive effort by the Tahs in the first 20 was impressive at any level. Sad that the quality slipped from there.

    OK, this could go differently to the pundits expectations.

    It is possibly a big issue among (some) fans. I've seen little evidence the Reds management have it as a high criticality.

    Fair enough. I guess we'll get to see EJ (Eddie Jones)'s thoughts in due course.

    Why on earth would people be laughing at the Reds considering Cheika for HC? It's a solid CV with plenty of experience and also lots of learning. I'm not saying he should be dropped in without due consideration, but it would be silly not to consider the opportunity if he is actually available...

    Super Rugby 2023 QF: Chiefs v Reds

    I'm not at all sure of Daugunu in the centres. He has the body for it and has apparently been OK previously. Hopefully Flook get's a "roving" commission.

    And this would be a valid criticism. Anyone who takes a view that they are all over community rugby through a single city is just missing the point. If the bloke had made claims re NSW and followed up with planning discussions elsewhere it would be valid.

    A view of the current situation in Sydney? How solid is his knowledge of club rugger in Brisbane? Canberra? Melbourne? Perth? Sydney outside of SRU or feeders to SRU clubs, for that matter. I wish him all the best, but I’m not accepting any great depth in “grassroots” rugby till we hear...

    Drua v Reds, Sat 3 Jun, 2:35PM

    I don't think I'm on my own with red despondency. probably need to take a breathe and duly recognise performance. Well done Drua. Fabulous job Mick. Into the finals and well deserved. Who knows even, riding a wave of optimism and come next week there are only two teams on the park. Go well.

    Higgins, should have simply stopped there.
