you made a point? It is about funding, but it's not about funding..... If you don't put your unattributed quote in context, you are either ignorant of the context,or are disingenuous. When Pulver initially reduced funding to SS clubs, he promised that funds would be reinstated when better times...

Categorically no club receives one cent of this. Notes also show participation fees for significantly higher amount & gate income of $172k Back of a beer coaster, each club would remit $200 per head in rego fees Average players per club 150 players, that's $360k add $172k from the gate. What's...

Not in past tense either :)

What fucking savings? the ARU have ensured that at least one of three entities is going to sue their arse. The only variable,is who the ARU choose to sue them,and how big the bill is going to be. Undoubtedly, the franchise that survives will need additional help in a year or two as well. Then...

Hilarious..... ARU CEO Bill Pulver echoed Clyne’s comments and said the future was looking bright for the relationship between the unions. “For the first time in a long time we have a collective view of what the future of the game looks like and a really healthy spirit of cooperation to achieve...

Miller wasn't in a 20's program in '15 or '16, so he's invisible. The Tahs preferred to sign one from this pathway. Miller on one leg would run rings around him.

Comprehension not your strong suit? How many different ways can it be said that the SS receives nothing from ARU. Nothing, zero,nada...... Just quietly,it seems the only part of Oz Rugby that's strong ATM. Purely coincidental that the ARU play no part in their operations :)

Of course he has told the playing group he's not selling. Otherwise he just cops whatever morsels the ARU throw at him. But, he has to have no respect for money, if he doesn't bash up the ARU for a big payout & walk away. His business is leaking money and the business model is totally reliant...

Too harsh IS. Simoni went well in the trials playing outside of Foley, but not well outside of Hegarty, who incidentally only just looks like a first grader in SS. Don't judge SS standard by TC, he's probably the easiest assignment any 12 gets this year, as is confirmed by the clip earlier in...

Couple of things. It's Gordon Bray not Clarke,that delights in telling viewers inane details of players backgrounds. Does Bray still commentate? Secondly, how Fox actually do their telecasts,and what they choose to cross promote is entirely outside of the ARU's control....

If we are framing markets, what's the betting the ARU rushes through contracts to secure Billy P's tenure before this imbroglio gets any worse.

I don't think we should aspire to be like NRL in any respect. However, we don't do accountability well. Michael Foley almost destroyed 2 franchises single handed.Graham never ever looked liked he was he was on top of his brief. Dean's also had 9 lives. Don't even start me on the current mens 7s...

It's not a SANZAAR issue, it's an ARU clusterfuck. When they were told they'd get paid for 5 teams for 3 years,whilst only supplying 4 teams.The ARU never paused to consider how that would affect their existing agreements.Nor did they consider what sort of a haircut they would get in year 4 and...

^^^^^Umm, when I say he can back rats with me, that means I don't rate the rats. Maybe things will turnaround, but they are a rabble ATM. As you say, the 15 point loss today,flattered them greatly.

^^^^afl enjoys high TV ratings, and crowds. Not so much the NRC.....

Without doubt the NRC was a great initiative, and he deserves credit for it. But that is a small % of his responsibilities. Just as he deserves credit for things he has done well, he warrants criticism for the things he has not done well.

Are they counting limbs instead of heads these days?

Tahs have too many 'pay cheque' players, they prefer to participate only when they have an advantage. It's easier/better not to rush back & try and snuff something out, if you will be under pressure with a high probability of an error. Let someone else do it.

No, rock bottom is when they have a fan forum, and the fucking coach tells you it's ok he's got this.......

Billy P can't work out whether the wall should be in Perth or Melbourne.
