Depends on who they sell too

We need the NRC back, any academy graduate who is overlooked will look to leave Melbourne for a comp that would provide them a better pathway

I think it also comes down to what happens with private equity. It was mentioned CVC is keen on a champions league more strategically aligned with South Africa to help two nations they have a stake in. Where Silverlake is also looking to make an offer to help grow the value of their stake in NZ...

I agree 8 teams, top 4 for finals 14 games plus the champions league. I really like that we are willing to put Australian rugby first

We need to bring back where to for super rugby

Edmed 100%, Pasitoa no

We have him for England if the squad is different for the rugby championship than so be it

I don’t know about play, where I live there is no option of playing League. But 100% the FTA exposure is a huge factor. But let’s be real test rugby is a way bigger stage than league if the island teams can start performing well on that stage it will help get more people watching union again

The first thing that gives me hope is the fact the local lads want to stick it out at the Rebels. Valetini felt like the Brumbies were the better option and has become a star. Good luck to him as a Victorian I am proud to see him have success.

It’s no knock on Wells, it more shows that their is a lack of leadership at the club

But I wouldn’t say the back row has ever been the issue defensively

Would say Phillip

12 years with no success gives that away, who even was the captain in 21?
