    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Stick the Drua in Super Rugby and they'd be plenty entertaining as well. But stick the Tahs or Reds in a one off showcase against the Force with an entertainment purpose and they'd be a pretty different to the last 10 minutes of a must win Super Rugby game.

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Some of that'd be because the GRR games "don't matter" Barbarian games are usually pretty entertainment Ning without the gamesmanship as well

    Wallabies 2019 Thread

    For the Arnold brothers I think it's because they started playing so late that for every team they ever played for, someone else would have been calling the lineout, so it's a skill they just never developed. Contrast that with Simmons. Probably been calling lineouts for every game he ever...

    Wallabies 2019 Thread

    Arnold doesn't seem to be trusted with it and seems to be one of the reasons he hasn't always been selected over the last couple of years.

    Will come back to the old chestnut of having some one on the bench who can call lineouts. If Jones plays maybe you can get away without it

    The Israel Folau saga

    The interesting point for me is if he did use a direct quote from his preferred bible - then RA and his sponsors probably don't have a problem with that.

    The Israel Folau saga

    The meme itself wasn't a direct quote. He paraphrased 1-Corinthians 9-10 Izzy's church believes King James Bible is the correct translation (or at least when he does do direct quotes in the 46 other posts, that's what he seems to use). The direct quote is

    The Israel Folau saga

    That 72 hours has definitely been reported, but the Code of conduct says 7 days

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    I think they should do that - would help with the time wasting, but it doesn't actually address the big issue for me which is the 5min gaps between play And allowing time off for scrums penalties etc, may make that even worse.

    The Israel Folau saga

    Legally they are different situations due to the specific exemptions in the fair work act legislation That's not to say RA don't have the right to take action against Izzy.

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Wasn't quite sure where to put this, because it's not a super rugby problem, but definately a rugby in general one. Watched the last 10 mins of Reds v Tahs. Tahs up by two after an entertaining game with it all to play for. At 69:45 on the game clock the Reds kicked the ball out. I recorded...

    2019 TV ratings and crowd numbers

    Blues v chiefs 35k Reds v Tahs 49k Thought the game was pretty good and deserved a bigger crowd than that, but 11 losses in a row, and plenty of ordinary games amongst them must be having a toll. Election night also impacted everyone's numbers

    Refereeing decisions

    Rebels v Bulls, early in the second half, (46:55 game time) Bulls feed the scrum and hold it at the back hoping to draw a penalty. Ref tells them to use it 3 times and then blows it up when they don't. Ref gives possession back to the Bulls who had the feed. How does that work? Nearly 5...

    Yes? Fortunately David's smart enough to realise this, and accept the warning he has been given so as not to put his employment at risk
