    I'd imagine that Fereti is on call. But Cruze will start with Chibba and Weeksy. With Moloney, Lomax and either Pat or Uelese on the bench.

    Rebels 2017

    Our back row is excellent. And so are our outside backs. But between our halves and our tight five, we are all over the place. Locks and Stand Offs in particular, but you can't discount the other positions either. I think smart teams will look to exploit that by targeting our set piece and...

    Playing surfaces and safety of players

    At least: Cardiff Arms Park (Blues) Allianz Park (Saracens) Kingston Park (Falcons) Scotstoun (Glasgow Warriors) Charles Mathon (Oyannax) Have fully artificial turf. http://playerwelfare.worldrugby.org/?documentid=155 In the "document" above on World Rugbys website, it does actually...

    New Zealand Rugby Team Watch

    £££ With the Not Nots more or less storming their way towards promotion, only Leeds or whatever they're calling themselves now will put up any real fight IMO. They wouldn't want relegation clauses because they'll want to build a squad that'll keep them up there next time, whereas they had 6 or...

    Lots of blocking off kicks by the reds.

    So outside Banjoland, the game is at 7.30pm?

    CJ O'Stander is definitely King, but I can't help but feel Nelly would be close had he not missed the past 4/5 months. SRU have been good over the past 5 years. In one of the articles at some point one of the Board members said that for International Recruitment, we were basically got in the...

    Rennie will make sure Christie gets plenty of experience before joining Glasgow with that injury then :p

    I struggle to imagine that any Union could be more incompetent than the SRU before roughly 2012.

    Rugby News from unexpected places

    It's surprising that they've not been better at finding blokes with ancestry. Since 2011, Maitland, Berghan, B Toolis, Watson, Hardie, Blake, Cowan, Dell, Jones and Hart have all been been SH developed players and given full Scottish caps after being eligible through ancestry/Birth. McClennan...

    Rebels 2017

    Ben looked smooth in motion but dropped a few sitters. Jack 10, Ben 15 is my preferred combo at this stage, but Maddocks looks the goods, so could easily keep everyone else out of the fullback jersey.

    Reds vs Rebels Trial - Tuesday 14 February 2017

    Happy enough with that. Looking forward to the blues, If Inman is fit, I'd want him in at 13 and have English push Placid out of the side. I'd also prefer one of JD and Volavola to be in the side for one of JGB and Maddocks. And I'd start Schatz, push Timani into Lock and have one of the full...

    Brisbane Global Rugby Tens

    10s feels like very slow 7s rather than fast 15s. I'll be taking a hard pass next year outside Rebels games, but I hope it builds to some sort of success, both for you blokes who enjoy it and for Australian Rugby in general.

    Rebels 2017

    So, who's available? McMahon, Metcher, Toolis, Jeffries, Fou, Placid and Koroibete out? Is that then, a pack of: Toby, Chibba, Weeksy, Cummo, Timani, Schatz, Jordy, Mafi, Res: Pat, Cruze, Lomax, Retallick, Colby

    Brisbane Global Rugby Tens

    Houston has made a decision that makes no sense, and Maloney shows how much more intelligent than Horan he is. Foul play prevents a try = Penalty Try and Yellow card Reds Clear, and Chiefs should feel very very aggrieved.

    Spain and Germany present a different financial situation to the 6 Nations committee than Georgia does, there's no shame in admitting it, it's the same reason Japan will be considered over the other PIs for the Rugby Championship. If those two get up and running, and Russia and Romania don't...

    Think sloppy adequately sums up the Rebels 10s tournament.

    Brisbane Global Rugby Tens

    Sevens has been played since 1883 and played everywhere, don't think tens has been around much longer than the 60s, and seems to mostly be confined to a handful of tournaments in South East Asia.
