Just a whinge. We have had our seats on the eastern side of the ground for several years and all the entertainment, competitions etc (like this year's "hold up your coke") are nearly always conducted over on the western side of the field. If we are lucky they will come over our side once a...

Cam Crawford? I saw him for the first time in Shute Shield on the ABC on Saturday and he looked the goods to me. He seemed faster than Smith, but still big and strong. I think the squad is really shaping up well, probably even better than we might have hoped in the circumstances. I am also...

Last year after watching To'omua I thought that he would be a future star. This year he hasn't had many opportunities, but he will get those opportunities next year. I know there is many a slip between cup and lip, but I still think he will be a star.

I didn't have any issue with the sacking of Andy Friend, as a coach lives and dies by his results. Super 15 quality players are in high demand, and the ones you have are a club's greatest asset. It is the job of the coach to get the best out of the players they have, and Friend, who seemed a...

It wasn't a tweet. It was a quote during an interview for TV: http://www.foxsports.com.au/rugby/o039connor-to-sign-with-rebels/video-e6frf4pu-1226075872020?sectionvertical=rugby

I wonder if JOC (James O'Connor) knows or cares what all this is doing to his reputation, and his fan base. I know we enjoy the exploits on the field of players that we don't personally like (although I guess most of that is perception, as we don't really know most of them), but I can't help but think that a lot...

The announcement on the Force website makes it sound like they were sick of JOC (James O'Connor)'s management stuffing them around and having unreasonable demands. He's not represented by Khoder Nasser too, is he? They also specifically mention the length of his contract, which may mean that his other demands...

As his dad used to be the captain of the Canberra Raiders, we could add him to the list of Brumbies players who are sons of Raiders eg Matt Giteau and Matt Henjak

Huh?

And, as Brumby Jack says, the whole history of Brumbies Waratahs rivalry would not allow anything but a C.

I think the Brumbies players have targeted their last 3 games against Australian sides to restore some of their pride. That's why I didn't think they would have a post-big game let down against the Rebels, and I don't think they will do anything but their utmost best against the Tahs as well...

Brumbies: 3. Stephen Moore 2. Pat McCabe 1. Matt Giteau Rebels: 3. Jarrod Saffy (by a long way) 2. Mark Gerrard 1. Garett Delve

Wonder if we could get Schalk Burger as a marquee player.

Moore has been in great form and he was my man of the match tonight. It has been obvious for a few weeks I think that he has been trying to lift the team by his own efforts. There is also no doubt he is the best line out thrower we have. I thought Mitchell Chapman had another blinder as well.

Thought the same thing while watching.

Tonight's last home game has the feeling of an end of an era, or a changing of the guard, with a substantially new team next year. I can't remember another time we have had so many players in their farewell performance at Canberra Stadium. It is a great pity some of them aren't able to get onto...

Personally I am really looking forward to seeing Nic White and Matt To'omua get the game time they deserve. Hopefully they can build a great combination that will serve us well for several years. So well that they would have to build a new stand (The White To'omua Stand). I can dream, can't I. I...

Going to be a cold one on Friday night. Forecast maximum of 13 down to minus 4 overnight. Hopefully the teams will want to keep warm by running and we'll see a bit of enterprise. It makes handling an issue, though, if you're not used to it. I am not sure whether the long weekend will have any...
