    I think that is what the NRC is for.

    Reds 2014

    Yeah, I was worried last year about this year's injuries - and I guess that's sort of been played out that way. It definitely isn't a 4 week old problem - that's for sure. As I said above: The reds had some issues in 2012 and 2013 but were more than capable of closing out the tight ones...

    Reds 2014

    I don't think it is correct to just look at the results of the teams once the coach has taken over though. Surely it is also relevant to see where the team was prior to the coach, so you can tell if the new coach is moving in the right direction. White came in when the brumbies were god...

    Or, at the very least tell him to unpop his collar and stop ending sentences with an upwards inflection? :P

    Reds 2014

    I would just like to see the reds stop bombing their chances the way they have been. Never seen a side do it so often or so consistently. Just a lack of confidence, or something fundamental at training? Perhaps another player is not needed.

    Western Force 2014

    Well, that IS odd. I wonder what it is? It seems grossly disproportionate to the other unions, including the nsw union. I wonder if it is related to a specific program, or if it is somehow related to player numbers, crowd figures, beers consumed at big wig lunches?

    What are those payments for? edit: specifically, I mean. Is it something related to special initiatives or just a generic cash donation?

    ^^^ Sorry for the wall of text :( tl:dr yeah the force and rebels probably should get more, but unfortunately don't.

    Western Force 2014

    Its an interesting topic, isn't it. How to divert funds into markets where there is potential for high growth, but not at the expense of keeping the existing long term markets. I am not sure there would ever be an algorithm that would satisfy everyone. One item that would be difficult to...

    Give it a rest. The baiting is very tedious now.

    Reds 2014

    Given the history of most of our backs, it was not entirely unforeseen. If it is short term, then why not try to fill the slot with some high profile dude from europe or japan? Preferably one who is known to be able to catch and hold on to the ball (that rules out Digby). Perhaps they will...

    Reds vs Brumbies - Rd9 2014

    I find it incredulous that you guys wouldn't think that a sentence like this: wouldn't illicit a fairly negative response from quite a few Queensland supporters.

    Reds 2014

    I would imagine RG is definitely here for next year unless there is a massive revolt. My worry is his ability to keep the good players here and attract good players here. It's enormously difficult to showcase how good you are in a team that is performing badly, and players seeking higher...

    Force v Tahs, round 9 2014

    This behaviour from Beale is not new: Unfortunately not everyone at the time shared my views and in fact were really quite critical of it: Genia and Cooper are still at it - Genia quite openly and Cooper less so these days. How much impact does this have on the other players? I would...

    Reds vs Brumbies - Rd9 2014

    That is very surprising. I thought they would just give him a one week suspension (for the bye so that the brumbies are not disadvantaged) to discourage punching, but it seems like punching is something that is actually ok now. Wow.

    Reds vs Brumbies - Rd9 2014

    Why is it ok for Moore to be holding on to Quirks jersey, but Quirk not allowed to hold onto Moores? I just saw a lowlight of the incident and Moore is clearly holding onto Quirk before Quirk holds onto him.

    Reds 2014

    Difficult to see how Richard Graham can turn this around now, the players look to have lost so much confidence that even if he did do things right from now on the players probably wouldn't respond properly. It's not only the coach though, I don't think I've ever seen a team of professional...

    Reds vs Brumbies - Rd9 2014

    The reds did enough to win the game, but bottled it far too often, so lost the game. The referee did no favours for the reds, but he wasn't forcing any of the reds to drop the ball, throw forward passes or tackle players without the ball gifting the brumbies easy field position and possession...
