I like this a lot. Except I’d have Valetini at 6.

But free speech though right pal? They can say what they want. Don’t get so easily triggered, snowflake.

Stop whinging and bringing up the same issue over and over again. The mods have told everyone to drop it about a million times. Grow a pair and move on.

What were the attendance figures?

The guy is just starting to hit his straps at the Brumbies. Don’t we need our Super teams to be playing well and getting good results too? I’m a Reds fan and I’d be shitty at him being pinched from the Brumbies.

LOL. I reckon he’ll live.

I don’t know much about him, but LinkedIn tells me Marinos is South African educated, and worked in various admin roles within SA rugby for 10 years prior to this SANZAAR role. It looks like this hard data has struck a bit of a nerve?

You want something different to be done - Castle is doing something different. She’s exploring new broadcast deals, new markets, new grassroots alignments. She’s clearly trying to break RA out of the mire.

It serves to assist News Corp in driving broadcast value and interest down. Gotta keep flinging that mud every few days to keep this battle top of mind.

The briefest of glances over this forum would show that no one thinks Australian rugby is in great shape. We know it’s struggling massively. But in her short tenure, it certainly looks like Castle is trying to shake things up and enact change for the better. Junior pathways, U20 results...

Just once I’d like to see Farrell get his come-upance. Just once. The worm should’ve gotten a yellow for that ridiculous professional foul. A more charmed run I’ve never seen.

I’m pretty sure he came back on and finished the game. I was there, and far out it was fun being able to cheer and carry on with other Reds fans! Almost forgot what that feeling was like. Geez I hope the boys can get on a roll - the fans will reward them.

I really like some of the young talent coming through but we really need to manage these guys and not throw them to the wolves too early. They still need to be playing with some old heads. I’d like to see starts for maybe Valetini and McDermott, with others like Lolesio and eventually Wilson...

Sure. But he ramps it up to a factor of 10, often at the ref. Maybe just me then.

Currently watching the Crusaders - Highlanders match. NZ posters - please tell me Smith’s constant squawking is irritating to you too? Far out. Good game so far but I’m close to putting it on mute.

Interesting how Brumby Runner was earlier getting stuck into the young NSW flyhalf Will Harrison for his poor play and lack of composure in the Tahs-Rebels match while citing Brumby Lolesio as the shining example of these skills in action. Next minute, Noah has a sub-par game too. It’s...

Interesting idea. Something I’ve pondered myself actually. North vs South is a big thing in Brisbane, and I think would lend itself to natural tribalism, plus of course you get to still back your club boys. As you touch on though you couldn’t lose that QLD Country connection. It’s something...

Further to this issue, I feel it’s another example of Castle being ‘damned if you do, damned if you don’t.’ Only in Australian rugby can someone like her be slammed for inaction and sending Australian rugby bankrupt, while also simultaneously getting slammed for putting feelers out and pitching...

I’ve hung tough with this game that I love through a lot of bullshit, but if some Alan Jones-Phil Kearns-JON-old boys brigade coup comes into fruition I reckon that might just be my tipping point.

I can’t read it either as I’d rather drink rat poison than pay for a subscription to that rag-for-the-brainwashed, but yep.
