With the judiciary, if you don’t contest a charge, does that work in your favour if (or in Swintons case when) you go before them again? Is there an advantage in not contesting?

Tahs mis-management might be pushing others OS. Most stay for a gold jersey. Hard to show you’re any good in an underperforming franchise with little to no forward planning

Yeah, even if he can be selected, why would you?

I’m surprised Robbo and Godwin aren’t in the wider squad

Team probably already picked. They can try and create more hype and interest out of who replaces the suspended Swinton and injured Perese.

You may be right. I was more talking about the bluster and carry on swinton brings to the role of enforcer. It’s like his role model growing up was the iron shiek or some other wrestling bad guy

Swintons red should put a serious question mark next to his name.

He keeps doing this “hard man” crap. He’s more intent on getting in a slanging match than having a run. Needs to base his game on finnegan, he was uncompromising, intimidating, tough, but never a thug.

I really think if you have a marquee player in a key position the backup should be a young up and comer. It helps Aussie rugby. Powell learnt a lot from Cabelli when he was at the Brumbies.

Who’d be a goal kicker?

And on top of that, the numbers on the back are pretty much impossible to see

So we stop play for that?

I thought Tuala was a hooker.

Is Horton injured too?

He does a lot of grunt work, HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes). Pity he came off injured. Did he fail the HIA or was he replaced? Does going off for an HIA automatically mean he sits out next week? Swinton was impressive, pulled his head in a bit. Maybe he’s realised hardness is running hard and making his tackles, as...

And because the bench is weaker, the starters will play more minutes

You’re probably right, to me the offside was silly and I counted Ulese’s double as one stupid when it was in fact a stupid moment, followed by a stupider moment

One stupid moment and the Rebels concede three tries.

If someone could could show Mark N (Nawaqanitawase) how to utilise his explosive vertical leap to his defensive technique he’d be destroying people. I know it’s a big if….
