Not knowing the whole sporting side of UQ scholarships, I would only be making an educated guess, but I daresay that a potential scholarship candidate would have to have decent academic credentials as well. The university on a whole takes academic achievement pretty seriously. Although I have to...

That was a nothing article. If Bret Harris wanted to leave his readers confused as to what he was actually talking about, job done. Poorly written and purely speculative.

The Crusaders infringing in their red zone? What is this blasphemy you speak of?? ;)

Uh huh. Funny thing about depth, you can lose an important player yet not have the team compromised. Exactly the case with Finger. I recognise that Finger is an important part of the Reds machine. However, I am not silly enough to write them off because he is injured. Why you might ask? Because...

I suppose I should show up for a few Uni games this year, seeing as it is my last semester at the joint and all. :) Spectating, not playing though!

I don't know about that. Finger might be gone, but if the Reds go for Lance and Taps in the centres they lose nothing. There are a few other combinations the Reds have up their sleeve, losing Finger isn't as bad as it seems.

I have Diggers in my team also, yet I am debating his actual worth considering his price tag. As far as your starting xv goes Ash, I think it is reasonably well balanced bar the backrow. 2 fetchers (Pocock and Gill) tend to unbalance the backrow, especially if the ref is whistle happy. A...

Hopefully he can have a big season if he stays injury free. I agree, a Lynn, MMM and Wykes 4,5,6 combo does actually look quite good. If nothing else, it will provide plenty of lineout options. Wouldn't be such a bad idea to go with that combo to counter Pyle, Jones, Higgers and Delve at lineout...

Oh goodness! His case of backinitis might be terminal.

Hey Gaffa, how has Wykes gone at 6 in the trials?

I have just figured out what to do in the event that a forward is called upon to play in the backs. Instead of going Amish, the forward in question MUST shave his beard to look something like this: I'll see myself out.

All we can do is speculate, as above. We won't know for sure until they line up to take a kick. I would imagine Harris, Lilo, JO'C and Ebersohn would be kicking though.

I hope so. One of the main reasons I have him in my team!

Some of those young backrowers seem to be pretty good ball runners, so I would expect them to attack the Brumbies on the fringes. However, this tactic is fraught with risk if the ball is not secured properly in contact. And the Brumbies are perfectly capable of effecting numerous turnovers on...

Best he invest in one of these then:

And even then on a prayer and a hope!

Hmm, seems a perfect candidate for my above proposal. He would be well advised to grow a beard before Saturday night, and bring a razor to the game in case of being used as wing cover.

I wonder if Clyde will play out the whole game? Tomane could well come on for him in the second half. Either way, that's a fantastic comeback from Aussie Clyde.

No Scott, swapping one of your reserves into your starting xv isn't counted as a transfer. To get your reserve into your xv, simply click on the little arrow below player you want the reserve to replace and then click on your reserves arrow. Drafting guys into your squad works pretty much the...
