Nationals canned for the year and Academies wound right back , so interstate very unlikely. If there is any pathways rugby played more likely to be at an U20's level later in the year alongside Test matches, but still very unlikely. Edit : in reply to Fairplay

^Have no idea about any off field stuff , but his on field behaviour seems fine. His "freakish" ability stems from his hand eye coordination, catch -pass skills and aerial ability are indeed freakish for the long lanky fella he is. Anyone who saw his MOTM performance in last year's QPR GF...

Highly rate Gilmore as a coach. Has done a great job with the progression of the Academy model over 2018/19. Results for the U20's last year best in a while. He also was involved directly with the U18's in NZ last year. Hewart was HC , but Gilmore was with them the whole time and mostly...

Agree Reg , Seems to always try and put on a hit as well , spectacular when they come off , last night he hit a couple of guys hard , but the tackle was ineffective and didn’t shut down the play . It could end up being costly at some stage in the season. Would also like our scrum to...

Ashgrove would have the numbers and the sporting pedigree to make a go of it across all sports , not just rugby. Edit : would struggle with rowing

Thought the ASY (Angus Scott-Young) experiment at lock worked , his effort around the park is fantastic. LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) had a cracker , seems to have stood up as a forward leader since Rodda said goodbye. Wright again good and his lineout work and timing were spot on . They were getting him a long way off the ground ...

It was quite entertaining watching Holmes work over the Tah’s scrum last week . He hasn’t lost anything come scrum time .

Really only ASY (Angus Scott-Young) in for Rodda in a lot of people’s wish list for the back five . I actually like it , gets our best footballers on the park at the same time . The accuracy at the breakdown should be about as good as the Reds can be with that starting pack . It’s an area that Blyth ( and...

This puts a smile on my face . We are back a week early it seems .......

That’s surprising, there were stories on Rugby Xplorer and in both the Australian and CM about Mac , Flook and Kalani Thomas when they were brought into the senior squad after the departure of Rodda , Lucas and Hockings . Made mention of Mac choosing the Reds over several NRL offers , even...

It is when they’re not straight , that’s happening way too often .

We might end up with a Qld bubble footy extravaganza of all the Super AU , NRL and AFL teams based up here. Imagine all three GF’s being hosted in Qld . On a serious note , couple of the Reds extended squad back at UQ, guessing other clubs will get some back .

The majority of the 48 metres Pone ran for would have been from the one league style hit-up he did off a deep goal line drop out. Looked impressive and he did get himself into position to make the hit-up , but unlikely to get many other opportunities to run for the metres he did before...

This may have actually worked ! No Phil Kearns on the Tahs v Force game . Thank god , could only imagine the moaning ..... Apologies if this has been mentioned in the game thread .

CFS has got to start . If JOC (James O'Connor) happy to keep the kicking duties, Jock to 15 , Hegarty to the bench and that will do .

The ref tonight was about as consistent as both team’s lineouts. When he yellowed Stewart in the first half for cynically playing a man on the ground , I thought righto , he is making a statement at the breakdown here. Followed up by nothing, think he may have even put his whistle in his...

Drew might be almost palatable now his BBF Kurtley is no longer playing in Aus .......

First year of Colts being U20’s . Couple of things to consider , bigger age group difference for those leaving school and grades are going to be calling for those who have already been playing club footy . For me really hard to get a read on who will do well. First year out of school boys...

Cheers , missed that . Saw Hosea play a lot of schoolboys footy up here in Brisbane for BBC and a few rep games , always looked like the real deal . Glad he is getting a run .
