As I understand it....under current contract arrangements.....as soon as the franchise can't pay 100% of the contract rates the players become free agents again are can be open to offers. As we have seen already some clubs are handling this by allowing a year of sabbatical to play OS and...

Good article from the West Australian. First time Michael McDonald's name has been mentioned.

No irony just the ability to laugh at ourselves.

Great to see that the good news just keeps on coming.....puts currrent recruitment options into context when you consider that WA is fundamentally an AFL state. Add this to the focus on developing rugby as a sport for 8 government schools in 2021 wih Tatterang providing coaches plus other...

So which people are you talking about? The NZ latest announcement was NOT for just the WF it was for the possibility of 3-4 teams in addition to their own 5.

I'll supply the popcorn should that bunfight unfold. RA and World Rugby have already approved the GRR initiatives with 3 years of games both home-and-away. With the Asia-Pacific focus it wouldn't be too hard to see possible involvement in NZ with Bay of Plenty/China Tigers South China Lions ...

Wow Reg - maybe it depends upon who's available and who's off contract....... Are you aware that CV19 presents it's own challenges in getting people back into or into country?? Yes there are a lot of foreigners but don't underestimate the benefit of these experienced players both within the...

So you don't know - you're just guessing but present the statement as fact.
