I think that Benny Mac's is a bit different. The math went: 4 weeks for lifting tackle + 2 weeks for deterrent -2 weeks for good behaviour/record - 2 weeks for the fact that the kiwi acted like a stupid fucking git holding onto his head when it didn't even make any contact with the ground...

It would be useful to the other teams, sure. But I don't think that there is any reason that you have to make the post a pyra- mid :p Unless you were intending a downwards spiral for the season :(

Field goal on full time.

92-3 to the crusaders.

This isn't just about not winning the competition. This is about a team that plays worse than the littlies at half time.

I find it a bit odd that just about the only centre pairing he has NOT tried is Taps at 12 and CFS at 13. He's tried just about every other permutation and now that CFS is injured (and probably out for the rest of the season), he can't try that one at all :(

How many replacement windows have they budgeted for? *edit* - I think it looks fantastic, but not very crowd friendly. Is that the training field or the main field? The position of the pylons suggests to me it is the training field.

That article has just given Richard Graham his next positive spin quote: "we are now in a position where we can afford to experiment with new players and trial new things" is something I can imagine him saying in the next YouTube. Note to Richard: being in a position where you can afford to...

Yeah, I have constant emails and updates. The reds also have a constant stream of interviews on youtube that I get emails about.

Not that I recall. He has been cited and cleared previously. Given a clean sheet I expect he will get 6-8 weeks, if not more.

Slipper will have the book thrown at him, and it will be a suspension unlikely to have been seen previously. SANZAR will use this opportunity to send out a strong message that such tackles will not be tolerated and that irrespective of player history, they will now be taking a very firm stand...

The reds haven't lost 4 in a row since 2009. But we have now. The reds haven't lost 5 in a row since 2007. Next weekend is a massive game for this team. I am unsure what the record for home losses in a row would be, but I would imagine we are probably pretty close to that as well. There's...

I would like to see the reds review some of their players with respect to injuries and their return on the investment. There are some promising players in that list, but tbh, some of them (Toua and Turner definitely and CFS to a lesser extent), really do spend an unusually long time off the...

Gee, the reds are disappointing this year (duh). I have to say, they really aren't too lucky with a number of decisions, but that's the way the game goes when just about everything goes to shit. I don't think I have ever seen such a rapid loss of ability in professional athletes like this...

Off the Richard Graham thing entirely, I thought the latest Reds video with Quade thanking the past coaches, physios, etc etc was pretty nice. From a public eye point of view and using the media he has come a very long way.

Just on this point, I don't think it is fair to draw any conclusions based on who delivers the message. Bill Pulver has a history of publicly floating thought bubbles since he took over the reins - they probably thought he would be best to deliver the message because delivering such news is...

Toua for 2015.... Aww gees. I feel for the guy and admire the reds sticking with him through thin and thinner but he is just one long injury. Surely the reds can't possibly believe that next year is going to any different to the previous 4.

I would have thought this week would have been ideally set for Taps at 12 and CFS at 13, given Harris to 15 but sadly, not to be.

No. You guys are making too much sense. It's pitchforks and burning torches time, people!!!! BURN THE WITCH!!!! (but seriously, I am greatly troubled atm and not filled with a massive amount of confidence given the man's history - I don't think he can turn it around - but we will see)
