    Round 6: Waratahs v Crusaders - Saturday 23 March @ SCG

    I often look at how they place the ball and line it up and pretty much straight away know if it's going to miss. It's something I just cannot get my head around. For Foley he had a right to left fade. But not a huge one. He should be lining up aiming for the right most post when kicking. But he...

    Round 6: Waratahs v Crusaders - Saturday 23 March @ SCG

    Now if he can sort out his goal kicking. Seriously, it's not rocket science.

    This is interesting and could be the source of the AP Super Rugby concept. https://english.kyodonews.net/news/2019/03/0ed081d72381-focus-rugby-sunwolves-demise-may-lead-to-new-dawn-for-japanese-rugby.html?fbclid=IwAR2I0aspFv2zbDvgt0d4YGtz0Q_AvxkC2IdHKiYUpwOg-mGj2myCQSAcH04

    Waratahs 2019

    It's not. I touch on it in my post above. It's classified as State Significant Development. But that's not the issue in my opinion. It's the value of it as a development.

    Waratahs 2019

    Yes. There are State classifications for infrastructure and development. State Significant Infrastructure (SSI) and State Significant Development (SSD). One is primarily funded by Govt. The other can be by Govt., public/private partnership or private. The infrastructure in which we are...

    Global Rapid Rugby

    Agree especially on the strip ball. They are pretty obvious and should be continued. I'm actually surprised they haven't opted to bring back the quick tap from a knock on as per the old ELV's. I think the shot clock on things like the lineout and scrum would help speed things along and replacing...

    Argentina are involved in the LAR as they'll be supplying two teams and many players in others across the competition. From day dot. I agree with your sentiment. I hate losing the Sunwolves as I actually enjoy watching them and found them a compelling team to compete with from an Aus conference...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    I think several of those points in particular the downsides will depend on the overall make up of the competition. If GRR gets a 2nd Aus based team (which I think they should) then the question of opportunity is somewhat eased as opposed if it is just the current 4 Super Rugby + Force and Fiji. I've...

    Just hope that they decide to use him more liberally in the upcoming games.

    Waratahs 2019

    The govt. does have a responsibility to look to foster all of the elements above. But they do that via other agencies/departments and community groups etc. You'll find they are all funded separately from infrastructure such as what we've been discussing. And where they cannot budget they...

    Waratahs 2019

    Yes, but everything you listed in the first paragraph would come under the definition of critical infrastructure. Stadiums are most certainly not critical.

    Western Force Exhibition Games

    The general pace of play was quite up tempo . Both teams went out to play at real pace. Even when it slowed at times it didn't stagnate. The law changes didn't have any negative effects on the play. Probably actually forced them get more creative and/or accurate on the exit. We saw an example of...

    Western Force Exhibition Games

    Yes. That's why I said it was scrappy but with good intent. Most of the scrappiness came from giving it a go. If I thought it was poor I would have said it.

    Thought it was quite scrappy though with good intent. Poor concentration and pushing the pass the main culprits.

    I've never actually heard or seen that opinion echoed by an Australian fan.

    That only matters if you look at it as anything other than a development structure for Test Rugby.

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    For now. Google have just released their gaming platform called Stadia. Which whether you actually care about gaming or not demonstrated a great many very interesting new services linked with it that allow for seamless integration of content across multiple devices with little to no lag or down...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    Except there is already a professional structure in the US in its fledgling stages that many would be hesitant to blow up without there being serious upsides to it. I'm talking $$$. Many of the US Rugby guys I regularly speak to are none too keen on the idea of playing in a trans-continental...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    With the exception of the Nth and Sth America bit. Yeah. But conversely it kind of screams bullshit to me around the whole thing. Like they are just throwing together random regions in an effort not to look even worse than they currently do.
