Thanks Reg. I did all that mate and still can't find out who was "allocated" to Melbourne Rising and NSW Country Eagles. I remember it was part of the make-up but it was Beth's use of the word that I couldn't recall. In previous years I thought there was an announcement but I couldn't find...

Ok so what I can work out so far the Wallabies allocated to NRC team include the following: Queensland Country Izack Rodda Caleb Timu Taniela Tupou Queensland City Brendan Paenga - Amosa Lukhan Tui Samu Kerevi Vikings Tom Banks Joe Powell Rory Arnold Sydney Rays Jack Dempsey Michael...

Thanks Reg - but that was his choice - he wasn't allocated. Are you able to throw any light on the Wallabies allocations to the other teams as I hadn't seen this terminology used before and Beth writes for Rugby.com.au so you would thinks that she knowswhat's happening??

In reality the promotion of the NRC isn't up to RugbyWA it's is up to Rugby Australia as it is one of their programs.

RA despite the reported "deep discussions" still taking time to consider this possibility represents the story so far. If it's not belligerence ('aggressive or warlike behaviour') then let's add procrastination ('the action of delaying or postponing something; dithering; stalling...

In Beth Newman's article today entitled: Sydney to chase Bernard Foley for clash with NSW Country, Beth Newman makes a comment of - "Foley is not one of the Rays' officially allocated Wallabies - indeed he is theoretically aligned to Country". Can anybody throw any light on this Wallabies...

The Stockman's game was a WSR promotion. The NRC is run by RugbyWA which hasn't got the budget of WSR. There's no way that it can get the same level of promotion. I would think most of the WSR management team are a bit pre-occupied with next season at this stage. But it didn't stop Hodgo...

I suggest you read all of the same press and announcements as I do. At some stage this information has already been supplied. The comments "RA is being as belligerent, obstructive and uncooperative as it has from day 1" are my own observations from watching all developments about WSR & RA very...

Dear Georgina World Series Rugby is NOT a "rebel" league it is only going to move ahead with approval of ALL of the rugby unions which have teams in the 8 team competition. WSR does not intend to provide "16 marquee players for each team" but 16 marquee players distributed between the teams...

Good to have the presser up so quickly.

Always happy with a win But a poor showcase of rugby. Like a slow motion train wreck. Never reached any great heights.

Well said Marcel...

Pleasing, well-deserved result. Good first hit-out in the NRC for the new Western Force. Brisbane City will improve as it has the talent and firepower.

As predicted - an absolute cracker of a game. A hint of things to come? Some fantastic camera work. Enjoying the change of angles and close-ups.

Fantastic that this game was shown live in Japan on J Sports.
