If you look at the interview I posted above you will note Hooper has been in talks about this for at least 18 months

Makes the bench for the first game strong

No Moeroa or Hanigan

"funny" unit, big, but doesn't play "big" - has good kicking and ball playing skills and will need them outside a noob 10 who will need support

Who knows, there is a shed load of PR crap with sponsors the captain is inflicted with off the field, lightening Hooper's load is not a bad thing As to Simmons, I don't know if it is genius move or a clusterf*ck - and the answer will be down to if they are winning or not But he interviews OK

The Tahs keep punching these out, from SFA to a social media campaign

McCaw did the same thing (I think) With a couple of better 7s in the squad he may even be given a lighter load as well

As I said, me a cynic, if he is doing well starting at 15 and the Tahs aren't total pants the motivation for 7s may waine But if he is benched or stuck on the wing in a struggling Tahs side other options start to look magical

Did you ever care or notice who the hell the VC was in your team?

I think that may have been a ploy to get the transfer (high cynic mode) Less important to the Rebs if he was going to be not there for a chunk of the season

I would have Hunt in a "Conrad Smith" role at 13 ensuring some space and play make in the wide channels. Moeroa has player "12" in the NRL a lot, he can make metres and pop passes. Apart from hooker the bench starts to look very solid

Listening to the House fo Rugby Podcast. Saracens really take care of their players financially (and we have learnt by how much), culturally (bonding trips) and that they are winners. Add to that the lack of travel and I can see how that can be a really compelling case.

750k a year .......

Harrison did well, but we had front foot ball by then. Mason, wasn't bad with a lot of rubbish ball Harrison needs to start and be under the pump to show a better comparison But it was a good start

Reds look like they are going to win by a million against these kids

Absolutely pissing down in Sydney - what a shit summer

And the team

And it looked for this moment of video to be Mason Hunt Foteki
