Does anybody know if Sefa played DS? The Club don't update us these days, so tough to know if he has the match fitness to mount a case for return to the starting side. Assuming he does, I'd go with: Smith, Hanson, Weeks, Jones, Timani, Reid, McMahon, Thomson, Stirzaker, Debreczeni...

Worth noting that Wayne Smith mentioned in The Australian that the Cockatoo Island squad had been picked prior to Round One, and therefore is not a reflection of form

From: http://www.rupa.com.au/news/the-players/stat-attack-round-seven-2016 The Reds return after a week off and will be refreshed and raring to go against the Highlanders. Expect a nail biter despite their differing fortunes so far this season; as we’ve so often seen, contrasting strategies...

Force vs. Crusaders, (#FORvCRU) Friday April 8th, 21:00 (AEST), Perth: Friday night sees the Western Force host the seven-time champion Crusaders, who have called up All Black Israel Dagg and former Rebels hooker Ged Robinson as injury cover for a game that represents their final stop on a...

It's from Luke Jones, who posted it earlier today

Though I do think there's every chance that the 45 number is an approximate and most of the Sydney based players are there, which is fair enough as they head into a bye. Why not take them in as well?

And can add Ta'avao & Palu based on Tolu's Instagram post

No mention of Ta'avao anywhere that I've seen. I have had a crack based on what I have read and what I know - I would be anywhere between 90 & 100% certain of the 41 on the list and then the other 4 would have to come from the groups after that. I have also included a Western Force contenders...

And I think Sione will play in the U20s final if at all possible

I'll be staggered if Tamati gets up. Staggered. I'd like to see: 1. Smith 2. Hanson 3. Weeks 4. Jones 5. Timani 6. McMahon 7. Fuglistaller 8. Reid 9. Stirzaker (C) 10. Debreczeni 11. Crawford 12. Inman 13. Shipperley 14. Placid 15. Hodge 16. Leafa 17. Ah-Nau 18. Hagan 19. Jeffries 20...

Pama Fou going to the Rebels at the end of the year

From the RUPA website (http://www.rupa.com.au/news/the-players/stat-attack-round-five-2016): The Force have a big challenge ahead of them against the Chiefs, a team who while susceptible on defence at times are breathtaking in attack; the final few minutes of their win in Argentina against...

From the RUPA website (http://www.rupa.com.au/news/the-players/stat-attack-round-five-2016): Finally, to the only local derby for Round Five as we celebrate Easter Sunday with an afternoon contest between arch-rivals Queensland and New South Wales. At present, it’s forecast to be hot and wet...

From the RUPA website (http://www.rupa.com.au/news/the-players/stat-attack-round-five-2016): It’s not often a team on a fortnight-long South African tour has to fly over three replacements between the first and second game, but that’s exactly the fate that’s befell the Brumbies this week as...

From the RUPA website (http://www.rupa.com.au/news/the-players/stat-attack-round-five-2016) The Rebels have won their last two against sides from New Zealand and are aiming for three consecutive wins against teams from across the Tasman for the first time; however they have lost three of four...

And two of the list of seven are out of contract at the end of the year and no guarantee to re-sign/be offered deals

Interesting - Gus was named in their run-on side last week. Justin Marsters is up here playing Shute Shield for West Harbour, off the top of my head. Quite often 'Quins use their more experienced players exclusively in the second half of the season, though I know Lloydy had interest from...

Just from the teamsheets alone, it looks like the majority of players who came to Uni when Brad Mika was coaching last year have gone elsewhere now that's he left. Josh Cocker-Valu and Taiso Silafai are two who were named in other team lists, and I'm sure there's plenty more. With the movement...

Thanks - I'll get fairly excited about the Rebels beating the Tahs when they're probably working off a base of less than 250 kids who are even eligible for the U20s team, and therefore having to select schoolboys. And yes, they thoroughly deserved to win. The number of bone crunching hits on...
