It's not a dead rubber. Still plenty to play for. Thread name should be changed.

I agree, farewell Robbie! You've been shit for 5 seasons!

I don't like only having 1 week back after the break before finals compared to 3 weeks back for the NZ & SA teams. Especially as it could be a season deciding match against the Tahs. Sold out matches for each franchise against the Lions will bring in more $$ overall than a finals match or 2...

I think this has been done to leave Saturday free for the Reds v Lions match. But yes, it's a tough turnaround for the Force.

So the Aussie teams have 1 week to get back into stride after the break before playing semi-finals against the NZ & SA teams who've been back at it for 3? Can't see that causing any controversy at all.

Just found it in a Reds membership directory doc. These prices seem a bit steep & will really test the Wallabies & Lions crowd drawing capacity. $175 for Silver is only $25 less than a Reds season ticket in that category. Going to struggle to justify spending that much to the wife for a few...

Well that'll give him time to sort out his deal with the NRL then. Wtf is JO'N doing fucking around with his contract for so long. All the Reds members are going to be happy with their "QC10" collectors item t-shirts if it all falls through.

When do the Wallabies fly out? Does anybody know if they're going to actually spend time at altitude to get used to the conditions this time? Or are they just going to do the usual and swan around on the beach in Durban or Cape Town, fly up the day before and then wonder what hit them?

Looks like Test rugby will be coming back to the Gold Coast, after maybe a year off next season. http://www.goldcoast.com.au/article/2012/09/17/438305_rugby-sport.html

I think if the ARU want to go for a Gold Coast Test next year, they should schedule it as an afternoon match. Like a 3pm kick off to be played prior to the AB's game rather than after it. Would've been a nice sunny afternoon and that will avoid a clash with the Nrl finals so maybe they'll...

Should've won that with a bonus point. Apart from bombing 2 tries, they found 2 in ten minutes to get themselves back into it but then concentration lapsed immediately afterwards. Instead of thinking job done, they should've been fired up to grab more tries. I don't think Quade will play...

Well if the bus ride in is anything to go by, the Argie fans are going to make a hell of a lot more noise than the Wallabies supporters.

He's 19. So is Edrick Lee. Lee would be a great outside centre.

Someone should snap up Jason Taumololo from the Cowboys. He is the 8 we've been looking for. Just need to convince him to play for Australia... http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Taumalolo

Key emerging sporting market on the Gold Coast or fools gold? http://www.theroar.com.au/2012/06/25/is-gold-coast-fickle-sporting-market/ C'mon people of the Gold Coast - get off your arses and get to Robina! JO'N - if this doesn't sell out, it's your fault for shit promo work! Not one...

Has anyone seen a figure for the number of tickets sold yet? I see on ticketek you can still buy blocks of 10 seats in silver & bronze and the place only holds 27000. Maybe they should've just played it in Canberra

Anyone know how ticket sales are tracking? I must say I'm disappointed we haven't seen a single or half a dozen Argentinian girls on the beach at Surfers in Blue & White bikinis. Throw in a few metermaids in their gold and Bobs your uncle. Perfect promo for the coast! C'Mon JON! For the good...

Bit different though - Graham Lowe won!

Sheehan has apparently got the call up. http://m.brisbanetimes.com.au/breaking-news-sport/acl-injury-rules-genia-out-for-six-months-20120909-25lwh.html

Is Ben Lucas fit? Or his brother?
