So another $600 million dollars? I think you're over-estimating it there what those extra markets will bring. Outside of Australia, the market for League is tiny. Whereas, it's the complete opposite for Union. Internally, we're tiny, but globally it's huge. If Nine has the rights to broadcast...

The thing is, the FTA operates in Australia are haemorrhaging money. Jobs are going and spending on new shows isn't really happening. There's a reason why Reality TV is taking off on FTA channels, it's cheap to manufacture and produce. It's quite surprising that Nine would be willing to drop...

That $40 million is to the ARU annually (or say $160 over 4 years), while the $925 is to the NRL in 2018 to 2022. We've got less games to show, but less money is required to be split across the teams etc. The $40 million doesn't appear to cover any cash from whatever FTA is showing the...

If a bloke you've played with for two years isn't in the "right" position why are you just shovelling shit and not speaking to him? Sure Foley can shoulder some of this blame, but come on, if Phipps had actually looked what was happening most of the wayward passes would not have happened...

Phipps will still be in contention for the World Cup squad, but he needs to be dropped from the entire 23 next bledisloe game. Absolutely fucked us in this game and deserves to be punished for it. Stupid mistakes not just a bad game.

The locks seem busy, maybe not complexly effective but the halves are what's stifling our attack. They're absolutely shitting the bed rather than taking one moment to see what's going on.

We still need depth at fullback. Who knows if JOC (James O'Connor) is actually sticking around next season. I've got no problem with the recruitment, if his story is right, the guy would appear to be a pretty humble dude who's willing to perform a role. We haven't really had a inside ball running option since...

Just curious as I have essentially no knowledge in this realm of life. If we look at it from an Aboriginal perspective, would the bulk of them be happy about a bunch of white guys performing the dance? There's a lot of tension between Anglo-Saxon's and the Aboriginals, so much so I couldn't...

Outside of Beau, I can't think of any other bloke who has done more to engage with the fans in the Reds team. But if you're not happy with Dales getting it, perhaps you'd like to name a more worthy candidate?

The thing is, ever since 2011 a large portion of that 2011 team has failed to recapture their form. You could probably count on one hand the members that continued to play at the same level for the following season or two. More importantly, going into the 2016 season, we'll be approaching the...

I haven't read anything that suggests the injury happened in the last game. For all we know, the injury could be FIFA related as all the boys had the weekend off.

Perhaps he was acting like a Goose when disembarking from the vehicle?

Seems you forgot Tui; http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-union/reds/queensland-reds-resign-japan-international-hendrik-tui-20150730-ginsp0.html Surely he'd be the starter or at least on the bench?

Sounds like Quade would be best off having a doctor to sign off on having a weak heart. It might get him out of the French pickle he's in. Sorry Quadey, but you made your bed, time to sleep in it. It'll fuck the Reds, but we all live with the consequences of our actions.

Mountain out of a mole hill to be honest. I'm personally over the same boring answers players are forced into giving. Hell, this very site took the piss out of Will only a few years ago: It's almost refreshing to see an Australian player to show some kind of emotion. Twitter and all these...

On the flip side, perhaps the ARU are trying to do the Reds a favour by bringing back a test lock who has some runs on the board in super rugby? If there's any truth to the matter with the ARU allowing the seconds a second marquee spot, I'm inclined to think the ARU are willing to help the clubs...

If the QRU are worried about how much QC (Quade Cooper) could cost us, why don't they just use the cash set aside for a backs coach to keep him around next year? God knows he'd be more astute at that than Dick.

Didn't Jim Jones say the same thing during the consuming of the Kool-aid in Jonestown? Personally, I hate being told to do something "because", if we give the QRU our blind faith, no-one would call them out on their crap. We've seen clearly that they don't objectively assess the situation so...

It must be nice to have such job security where literally everyone can see your incompetence, but the boss loves you. Maybe RG makes a wicked coffee brew in the morning and the QRU don't want to lose their favourite Barista? It's like losing a family member when the replacement can't make a...

Poor guy, won't be able to wipe his own ass. That'll really going to put a strain on his housemates relationship especially knowing what a prop consumes!
