Care to expand on that RR?? I reckon the building to a squad of close to 40 players is going well. Suggest you keep your powder dry until you see the entire squad........

So you know this as a fact? Or is this just more Fake News? I'll call this out as BS - especially when you look at the calibre of the new recruits. Matt Hodgson has good knowledge of the player market/worth. Do you really think that Forrest is going to short-change the players who are...

Don't underestimate the benefit of getting paid 100% of your contract and being part of a good program in a top location where each player can make a difference and connect with developing the game in WA. It's strange to me that the WF get criticised for only having young or old players but...

26yo Feliti Kaitu'u and 27yo Andrew Ready are both very young for Hookers. Ready has settled into the Perth scene very well and has been fantastic as both a starter and off the bench. Any competitive team needs at least 3 Hookers. It will be the 36yo Tessman who is likely to be under pressure

At this stage - just like the rest of us - including Rugby Australia.

Yeah.......what would Mark Evans, Tim Sampson, Matt Hodgson (who played Super Rugby until he was 36yo and outclassed Hooper in every head-to-head including his last game) and Brian O'Driscoll know??
