    2020 Super Rugby Round 1 (REDUX): Reds v Waratahs

    I was there. After a few slow early minutes, I thought it grew into a really good, absorbing contest. Full credit to the Waratahs - they did much better than I thought they would. Lots of feeling in the match which I loved - Swinton was hitting and jawing off to everyone which was brilliant too...

    Reds 2020

    My friends are a pretty good bellweather. Once huge rugby fans who have slowly dropped off for a number of reasons. But boy are they disillusioned with the Broncos currently. And even before this, they were starting to take note of the exciting play of the young Reds team and wanting to start...

    Yeah that’s a killer. I would’ve hoped they could of kept at least a skeleton crew of say 5 development officers. Very, very concerning.

    I’ve already said this on Twitter but I think it hugely devalues the All Blacks brand. It’s shilling out an elite, established brand to play carnival games.

    The Daily Telegraph is reporting the players have been asked to take an additional paycut through to the end of the year and they are considering striking in response.

    Yep. Some of us can walk and chew gum and the same time. Others seemingly struggle with that.

    You seem incapable of thinking in anything other than binaries. Yep RA is in a deep hole through a long period of terrible mismanagement. We all agree and I have a -sneaking- suspicion, possibly through your endless essays, that you feel the same. But if at the same time you don’t believe that a...

    Your inability to critically read between the lines of News’ coverage of a topic they have a vested interest in is only matched by your inability to read Barbarians request to drop the matter.

    Reds 2020

    Like it or not the three of them just didn’t consider the optics. The timing was horrible; we’d just gone through a huge drama around a RUPA negotiated pay cut, along with a large number of support and admin staff being payed off entirely. Rodda was even added to the select list permitted to...

    I don’t know about destroy but I don’t really know how a concerted agenda of destabilisation can be denied. During the Castle coup, the previously unknown and invisible (to me and many others at least) ‘chief sports writer’ Jessica Halloran seemingly emerged out of nowhere with coup-compliant...

    Jumped in to write the exact same thing. Certain people on here were claiming she’s impartial and even handed. Interesting isn’t it that the incessant hit pieces have absolutely dried up for weeks now. In fact, zero rugby content whatsoever. Not even any of the positive stuff of late, ie it’s...

    Wallabies 2020

    I just restarted my Kayo subscription now that Super rugby is on its way back. Having a skim through, I see they’ve got a 3 game package of recent Aus-Eng Tests - the 2016, 2017, and 2018 Twickenham matches. My god we played absolutely headless rugby. Plenty of exciting moments but absolutely...

    Nice. Thanks for sharing! I’ll be joining this too. The more GAGRs on the better actually.

    What do you want in a RA Streaming Service

    Someone in another thread cited the various pay tiers with the NBA Pass system. I’d pay plenty for the platinum product but a lower cost option may be great for the more casual fan.

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Did it need more time to build that though? I’m definitely not in the club rugby loop here in Brisbane (two years of colts for Souths about 15 years ago), but I think a north/south rivalry could be built with a bit of time and application. Souths/Sunnybank/Easts/Bond vs UQ/Norths/GPS/Brothers/Wests.

    Pit them against the All Time Crim XV. Geez I’d be torn watching that match.
