Unfortunately re Telusa the writing seemed to be on the wall. You can't really blame him based on lack of opportunities this year. Huge shame given he has some x factor and given the way he carved up for Rising last year.

Received a call from Melbourne Rising on Thursday where they told me suburb / towns matches were in. Three venues listed in record at Rebels v Force game.

Match at Morwell is at Latrobe City, at Geelong is Simmonds Stadium and at Frankston is Frankston Park. Don't know anything about Frankston Park. So if anyone has any knowledge regarding Frankston Park that would be good.

Rising home games: v Brisbane City at Harlequins Sat 29 Aug 2pm v Greater Sydney Rams at Morwell Sat 19 Sept 2pm v NSW Country Eagles at Geelong Thurs 8 Oct 7:30pm v Sydney Stars at Frankston Sun 18 Oct 1:30pm

Swingpass I think there is an element of cost savings but also think there is an element of taking game to people / development of game. Depending on clashes with other commitments I am likely to go to Frankston and Quins game and a possibility to go to Morwell game.

Apparently the Rising are not playing any games at AAMI Park this season. One match at each of Harlequins, Morwell, Geelong (Thursday night TV game) and Frankston.

Also can't believe we haven't seen more of Veainu this year. Particularly after his form for the Rising.

I agree Highlander35 it would be disappointing if Neville was stuck on 49 Rebel caps. I was hoping both he and PAE would notch their 50th Rebels cap this week and their 50th Super Rugby cap for Rebels next week.

Congratulations to oztimmay on winning the Early Rising Rebel competition.

I was at Suncorp last night. It was the first time I have seen the Rebels play outside Victoria. How good was Super Sefa's first try? Rebels had lots of opportunities in first twenty, butchered a couple of tries, could have been 21 - 0 or similar up. I thought we knocked on before Sefa's second...

I am going to Rebels game over A League and AFL. Tough choice. Planning to head over to G for last one and a half quarters of AFL after Rebels. One of guys I usually go to Rebels with is going to A League

According to box scores I saw in paper it was just over 10,000. I find it interesting that the Rebels have not announced the crowd at their last 3 home games.

Can the one match sign the death warrant for both coaches? Because last night came very close. Although kudos to Reds for hanging in the match as long as they did. Having said that apart from Naivalu we didn't throw much at the Reds. McGahan's game plan is too defensive, fancy only just...

He has not appeared on the Rebels injury list. So no he is not injured.

According to Herald Sun Laurie Weeks will miss this week's game. He is awaiting results of scans on his knee.

Perenara got binned because it was 4th or 5th penalty in a row defending the line by Hurricanes and they were warned after previous penalty. Don't see that as a "Mabo, the Vibe" "penalty ". In any case Rebels weren't good enough to take advantage of extra man and didn't seem to see ball for...

Pretty constant theme this year, even when we beat the Force.

So just in case we have all forgotten the Hurricanes play the Rebels tomorrow. Even with the players they are resting the Hurricanes should win. Especially when you consider Rebels have played about 30 minutes the last two weeks. Happy to see Sefa get a start, Cadeyrn back and Samo get a...

I am usually in the camp wanting Burgess to start over Stirzaker. But I agree with Dumbledore he was rubbish on Friday. He ran the ball approx 3 times and instead of taking the tackle and laying ball back he tried to throw miracle passes. One of those was the turnover that led to match winning...

*N.B.: Harris and Shipperley are playing 50th game according to Rebels. According to Fox Sports website Harris has already played 51 games and Shipperley has already played 50 games.
