Can somebody point me to a bit more information about the PPs? I'm new to Sydney this year and my (low) base of understanding has been that Clubs such as Uni & Randwick have had no shortage of current, former & budding professionals and it's never been an issue...

Lakeside is not an option due to short in-goals. I believe Geelong is looming as the most likely at this point in time...

Any idea of how long Thompson is contracted for as HC?

With so many Waratahs & Reds players in Club action this weekend, how come no Rebels?

Anybody know why Sione Tuipulotu's not in the 23? Surely he's injured?

Have heard Blackadder whispers, though apparently the ARU favour a 'Australian coach at all costs' approach

I'm hearing a night game at Quins against Hurricanes, but don't know when - anybody able to enlighten me? Week of the England test at AAMI maybe? Reeks of a money grab to me, should just let those who need game time play Dewar

Heard this too. I'm curious for more info.

Went into last week with a back complaint and that's why he only lasted 20-30. I'm assuming that's why he is out? Cocker not getting a look-in on the bench surprises me but I am happy to see Cruze starting

I believe he is done for the season unfortunately, which means done in a Rebels jersey. Real shame, he has been a wonderful player for the Rebels on and off the field

Hodge was originally going to play FB, with jack on the bench. Because Mike spent the whole week trianing at 10, they decided to stick with that when Tamati got hurt

And even more surprised who plays FB, though unfortunately that's due to yet another injury...

This is near perfect in my opinion. I would have Toby Smith as the backup THP before Alexander, and regardless to what you guys are saying he was at the Cockatoo Island camp and is a Cheika favourite, and I would have either Talakai or Robertson in the squad as the 5th prop. I would also swap...

Fuglistaller + Ellison will be leaving, and Murphy has done an ACL in training. Shipperley signed a 1 year extension just before he did his knee. Force are going hard at Crawford.

Agreed. They also play for teams with completely different playing styles and backline make-ups. At the Reds, there is a requirement for Kerevi to be creative and to take the opposition on, at the Brumbies (when To'omua is fit) TK is there to bend the line, make his tackles, occasionally slip...

I can't fathom people suggesting anybody at 13 except Kuridrani. One of our best for the last two or three international seasons, the deserved incumbent. Folau at fullback. If it ain't broke....

That's going to be Toby Smith in then as backup THP in my opinion.

Thanks for the quick response. Surely Alcock is in your best 23? Stander very luck IMO

http://melbournerebels.com/2016/05/19/rebels-welcome-back-english-inman-and-jeffries/ Inman, Jeffries & English into starting lineup for Ellison (dropped? no mention? must be something...), Jones (back), Crawford (wrist). Siliva to bench for Leafa (back).

That's close to a perfect team in my eyes. Only changes I would make are Taqele for DHP, then DHP for Hunt on the bench, plus McMahon for McCalman & Frisby for Stirzaker
