Agreed, Phil, and of course, this up and coming opportunity is not the only time we had such a situation in front of us. I'd add that our commercial returns from broadcasters seem based on content. So content would be up, income would be up. You don't have any more Wallaby squad members than now...

Watching the QPR final yesterday, I simply do not agree that we do not have the talent in Australia for a theoretical domestic comp of 10-12 teams AND to produce a sufficient quality game to be entertaining and marketable. That transition would certainly be painful. Couple of examples: x NSW...

Better team for sure. Well done Bulldogs.

Really impressed with the quality of the game.

The ABs tend to bounce back after a loss, which is not this case. The emotional trend may well be with the Wallabies. I'd hope there is plenty of cranky to be stoked. We'll need every bit of energy there is at Eden Park.

You may be overthinking things. Hope so.

Vunivalu? I thought he'd been working at 14.

By a country mile.

Ah! Something that can be agreed.

Yes they can. You'd have to argue it out with the judiciary. And have a good chance at it, but the "ref" can apply the rules for sure.

There has been some (admittedly minor) chat about being down to our 3rd Captain and the inappropriateness of White as Wallaby captain. I might agree with that under normal circumstances. This time, with the debacle from the ref, I can honestly not think of a better bloke to be Wallaby captain...

Yep. BTW, France doesn't even have common law - well as I understand it. Isn't their system entirely civil law?

?? It's rugby, not common law.

This should really be on ANZAC Day, and there should not be Kiwi v Kiwi or Aus v Aus. Great idea though. I may try to wrangle some time and money for it.

True that. He was spectacular before that though.

Yeah I think I like it.

There are probably more than a few Aussies with sore heads this morning thinking, "oh if only the garlic muncher turned up at my place".

last time? Top Gun apparently was topping the movie charts.

I thought of Lillicrap as our secret weapon. Sad to see him go. Isn't it a little odd to be changing the guard with Thorn in his last year (of contract anyway). I would usually hope by year 4 (that is right isn't it) that things would be settling around HC preferences and relationships.
