Yeah, surgeons generally say that an ACL recon is good to play on in 6 to 9 months. Quade didn't do his meniscus I believe (which apparently is pretty remarkable, usually ACL snaps and meniscus goes too, but I am led to believe that this happens usually as a result of the injury occurring in...

That was great video, thoroughly got me excited to watch the rebels. KB (Kurtley Beale) and JOC (James O'Connor) looked reasonably ready, as you would expect from two of the wallabies best. Cipriani looked assured when he had accomplished runners around him giving him 2 or 3 passing options on each play. Holy shit, Lloyd...

Do you reckon Rocky is as serious and stand offish with the team as he is with the media? I hope and suspect not. I think he will make a fine captain, if for no other reason than players have stated publicly and repeatedly that they WANT to follow him on the field. This presence or ("mana" as...

Does anyone besides me think Robbie coleman would make a good fist of 13? I know he has spent his whole life playing 10/12, but like I've been saying, those playmaking skills are almost becoming as valuable at 13 as they are at 12, if the 12 is a more direct angle runner/offloader and short...

Brown is hanging around, McCalman is going nowhere for a while, Smart money is on Pocock staying for life, Hodgo will be good for another year or three. You lot don't need Delve, we could use a mentor for Schatz and Quirk at the reds though now with Radike getting on. On a related note, What do...

He would be an outstanding pick up for the brums, maybe even the force if winston stanley and/or pat Dellit lose form/are flops (though I doubt that will be the case with either).

Three years? wow I hope he's getting a fat contract, he deserves it (as much as it pains me to say it about a winger and not a forward) This makes me so happy

Yeah, you're mate is an urban voodoo witch doctor and has no place claiming to be more qualified than a physiotherapist, he isn't. Maybe that was a bit harsh, Osteopaths provide a useful service, I have used them myself on occasion, and there is definitely value in that perspective of his...

What are the chances of us seeing AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)-Horne centre pairing at the tahs next year? I know AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) is being considered a fullback mostly but anyone who read my first ever post will know what a hard-on I have to see this in action. likelihood probably minimal barring injury to Tom Carter (and rightly...

but gilly is the messiah, hooper will be his phil waugh.

Rotation Rotation Rotation. Depends what they do with thompson, some games they'll need a fetcher, so they use hardie, thompson to 6 and the other two duke it out. or they play thompson at 7 and problem solved.

That is horrendous behaviour, men shouldn't take it upon themselves to groom one another uninvited btw without the beard he looks like woody graham

happy to see chris Noakes get a contract. Haskell has been shopping himself about and i figured he would probably end up at the rebels force or maybe cheetahs, highlanders will probably be a good fit though. Exciting as always

Watched only a little CC but I have a man crush on josh strauss the size of his beard

thats a bad thing to happen in any game, anywhere. that said, a pair of bruising, rock hard shoulders in the rebels midfield will undoubtedly be a prospect for the fan to enjoy

yeah his old stats said 112kg usually, his new ones say 105 or 106kg depending on where you read them

I'm excited by the prospect rocky playing for/ possibly leading the tahs. Will do him a world of good physically I reckon. I mean,Does anyone remember when rocky was playing for the tahs/wobs last time how he used to walk onto the field and be obviously the most physically intimidating player...

outstanding

I like this thread, its a doozy. The whole concept of impact (an 8 carrying the ball in midfield, which is the crux of this thread) is a funny one, because in its simplest form, its just size x speed = power in the collision, always a useful trait, however probably at least as pertinent is the...
