Are you trying to tell me you don't want to see JOC (James O'Connor) playing 10 again? :eek:

I don't think he meant to imply an homophobia with the comment. I mean, have you seen how high those blokes can jump? Surely there are fairies involved at some point in the process. Posts by #1 and Bardon are rugby poetry.

We're in a weird spot because of a stack of injuries at wing right now to compliment the guys who have recently gone OS. It's a minor hiccup caused by bad timing of things that nobody can really control and I don't think it's a symptom of anything greater in our selection policy. Tomane -...

Haha well, a guy who has consistently been one of the best 6/8s anywhere for a while and another guy who might actually be a crazy person is a pretty high bar to set!

That's all right and good mate and I respect your sentiment. But I will be very disappointed if this goes the way of deriding folks who choose to vote with their wallet. The Reds are supposed to be a proper sporting business (it's 2014, people) and there is nothing wrong with refusing to turn...

Exactly, and I don't think you're giving enough credit to Vito. He'd walk into most international setups. Shit, if you don't think he's hard I'm not sure the vocabulary exists to describe the hardness you think our signed squad members possess ;) Either way, I think he's head and shoulders...

If you're asking me whether or not I enjoy his abundance of fast-twitch fibers - the answer is a resounding "Yes!". The extra kit would be to replace the ones I stain with my tears of joy when he goes galloping over the gain line. I like to plan ahead. @Ash I honestly can't say I feel any...

For the record, if we sign Vito I will order multiples of every new piece of gear the Reds release this year.

Can't say I'm particularly surprised is was Quirk to go, all things considered. What he brought this year was very similar to what Schatz did, except Schatz made himself an integral part of our line out by developing into an excellent front-pod jumper. For all the shit he copped this year his...

Can't really argue with their assessment of Australia and to be honest I think they were gentle on a lot of guys (or 5/10 for them is below standard, and not standard). Also was wondering over the weekend why Tevita didn't get a look in on McCabe's wing spot as he'd likely have a bit more...

Strong doesn't always equal explosive and carrying v. set piece are two wildly different skill sets. Not trying to defend Simmo - he was very poor. More than anything else I'm feeling incredulous about the fact that since Mowen has left we have one (one and half if you count Kev, I guess)...

Bob's been hammering the Kuridrani at 12 thing for months.

Honestly unless Chabal is paying us I'm going to be pretty pissed off if that turns out to be true. Does he even have a sliver of marketing value in Brisbane? Will anyone outside of the rugby faithful have a clue at all who he is? Or did the back room just potentially sign a 38 year old...

Erm, I've read dozens of posts lamenting the forwards and just as many identifying individuals in the pack who performed poorly. This is why many folks are talking about it. The selection of Beale at 10 was baffling and the most controversial aspect of this entire Bledisloe series. To top it...

Shit. http://imgur.com/kWdSOn0

I think if I just write Rupert a sternly worded letter he'll let me get FoxTel here - probably for free, knowing how nice of a guy he is.

Excerpt from an interview with Mark Cuban from 2010/11: You played rugby at Indiana University. Tell me a little bit about how rugby affected your college experience. "It made my college experience. When I got to Indiana I knew maybe three people. I started playing rugby when I got to IU...

The rumors are true then.. Tom Carter is literally Satan.

Learning how to play 12 or 15 when you already played there professionally and spent a whole schoolboy career dominating the position is a whole different kettle of fish than picking up the no.6 or 8 jersey for the first time ever/in over a decade at 34.
