What did Hanigan prove last year that demonstrated he's up to the top level of Rugby??

Curious, why didn't Nic Berry get a gig at this one?

Yeah, back when he manhandled Genia. He was then suspended an injured if I remember correctly?

Perfectly balanced. As all things should be!

If you want some type of exhibition match without ripping off SOO, do what the yanks do in NFL and NBA. You have a East vs West competition, but with our geography, you'd have to make it North vs South. So, perhaps any NRC player on Perth and above are eligible for the North Team (that...

Say what you want about 'Dell Sailor and Tom Carter, but it was great when there was actual villains fans could 'root' against. There aren't any characters in our modern day that unites the fans into hating. The closest we have in this game from a Reds perspective is Beale after the way he...

Mate it was like the third google result after searching for “all black drug use suspension”. There was no follow up article anywhere to say he was clean. The results before it were about a Carter’s failed test which was rectified. If the article about him getting a second clean result doesn’t...

Sometimes you Kiwis really don’t do your whole chip on the shoulder image any good. https://www.smh.com.au/sport/rugby-union/all-black-patrick-tuipulotus-career-in-limbo-after-positive-test-for-a-banned-substance-20170205-gu5oiq.html Four NZ players busted for dabbling in the dark arts of...

It was pretty evident why QC (Quade Cooper) isn't being picked in the squad with how Stewart played. 1) That step Hamish did to almost score a try - QC (Quade Cooper) hasn't been able to replicate his light feet ever since his 2011 ACL injury 2) 14.... That's the amount of tackles HS made, 2-3 of them were dominant...

The Reds were so flat in the second half as they pretty much doubled the amount of tackles and time spent in defence compared to the lions. They were absolutely shelled.

Stewart for Wallaby 10!

How rugby is played doesn't lend itself to being easily translated to an enjoyable playing experience. Designing and implementing how a ruck works is extremely difficult, lots of bodies are in motion which contribute to a pretty complex gameplay system. Compared to say football where only one...

Ah ok, thanks. I tried reading a couple articles about it as the first one I came tried to say something similar to the relationship you pointed to, but I couldn't make heads or tails of it. Fair enough if they came down on the player, from reading the articles they appear to say it was swept...

I don't agree at all. TJ and co are only jumping up and down when it suits them. Hell, TJ's own girlfriend was bashed by a fellow player and he didn't raise his voice then http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11723146 I feel some people have lost some perspective in...

A lot of these Kiwi's live in glass houses. They all stayed pretty quiet when Aaron "Afterdavid" Smith, and Kaino were busted cheating or their wives. Or how the NZRU had to set up a panel to investigate how New Zealand players treat women.

Once Cyclo shutdown the Izzy thread, I had to shit post elsewhere!

Yakuza bosses still after him so he's laying low.

I double checked, you're right on the $2.7m being for 'one off' legal fee's, so I was mistaken in the ARU using it for the new entity. BUT, the other costs still apply of what cutting the force means on the advice given to the ARU both in removing the force and dealing with SANZAAR. In terms...

There's more to that fee that the firms fee's. The Silk + Junior between them would charge $20-30k in fees at a minimum per day. They had a couple of days of hearing, they would have had days to be briefed, days prior to the arbitration for negotiations, days to settle correspondence to the...

Bloody hell, if none of your close mates have differing stand points than you in anything in life, then what type of echo-chamber are you living in? They'll be in disagreement on a particular issue and will act like grown ups and move on.
