Has it ever been said previously that it's a rotating thing, or is that a new direction? I thought taking a couple of matches out of BNE, and the broader Reds to Regions program, was one of the best things the Reds were doing. He seemed a big advocate, but was Thorn properly driving it...

Thought this was a bit concerning in the Roar article - not the no criticism part, that's great and how it should be, but the justification around why the 'incorrect' decision was made. 8 minutes is a substantial amount of time to look at the available angles, and refer to the framework as...

No Townsville :oops:

Watching it again, George does push Basham significantly off his line, and also causes him to stumble and drop his height just before contact. I still think the wrong call has been made, but I can at least partially understand the decision. Good angle of it below:

I'm waiting for a journo to put exactly this to him... I wonder who could do so? Not sure any of the higher-profile ones, particularly Atko or Doran, would risk any RA contacts icing them out as a result

Can probably say the same about his chances of another Wallabies appearance, period

The purpose of the squad isn't just to provide coverage for the Wobs though - if they can take 5 back rowers, surely one of them can be a pure 8

The Wilson decision boggles the mind

Too many cooks in Eddie's kitchen for his liking maybe?

So it would appear the points systems and Phil Waugh's dream of having a good number of Wallabies and Super players running out for clubs may be incongruous?

The Matildas' new facility at La Trobe opened last month with immediate success ;)

Centres pairings will be interesting next year, especially with a new coach. We're not exactly short of options with O'Connor, Paisami, Flook, Petaia, Henry, and Annan

Anyone got a read on him? As Wilson said, appears to have come across from NZ to Nudgee this year. Plays for Sunnybank too it seems

have a read of this if you want a laugh and/or cry https://www.news.com.au/sport/nrl/rugby-league-rises-to-the-top-of-aussie-sport-with-mixture-of-personality-and-brutality/news-story/31448b71a878ec178caae93db4aa8dd6

Surprised that's flown under the radar - good sleuthing lads. Could be a very good get for the Reds

With resounding Eddie's focus on fitness, you'd have to think the plan is to rest sparingly. As a team, they need minutes together

CTE is caused by repeated brain trauma, yes. The general idea is that if the traumas start at a younger age, their effects will present earlier. A quick google led me to a study which identified CTE in a 36yo who had a history of seizures and self-harm by way of repeatedly hitting his head...

Not sure how his shoulder is going, but Liam Wright could be in the mix (at either 6 or 7)

I think the green grass might’ve gotten to you a bit
