How do you get to that conclusion? We lost by 3 points away even with the Queensland government making travel arrangements as difficult as possible. Also without a proper trail game and the bye in round one. I am expecting us to win this time

Can’t see why you would want to buy into the NZRU where is the growth potential? You look at the population projections and it has them growing to 6mill by 2050. Like us they aren’t in an attractive time zone to sell the products into other nations

Considering he use to be a rack rower before moving to 7s kicking is something he has probably not done that much off

But how do you grow the game. I have a mate who got into rugby just as he watched it to have a beer with mates and now is a Rebels member. But I guess he has a drinking problem

Been supporting the game in Melbourne for over 20 years

I am very bullish about the future of the game here and I think the Stan era is off to a good start just think somethings can be fine tuned. The force have something like 2 FTA games and that’s not good enough. I think they will sort out what works and what doesn’t this year and be back bigger...

But the beauty of a same game multi is small outlay and high return. Also inevitably the final leg fails so it keeps you interested for the entire game

They may not play again until France 2023

If we lose this game to interstate it will be the second time some of us Rebels fans have booked seats for Rugby Australia to cancel on us. All because the Reds wanted to stay in Sydney. It’s pathetic and rugby wonders why it struggles to attract new fans.

They just don’t want to lose

Why on earth would you go somewhere warm in winter? The winter months are the best

That’s the big issue with only two games a week. If they showed the Tahs Reds in NSW and QLD and the Force Brumbies in Perth and Canberra then nobody would get Stan sports. I think that it’s something that can get looked at next year though especially if we go with a full TT comp

They can only average 4 games a week, I agree the deals they have where different but I think the one thing the AFL do better than anyone else is they are always looking to grow the game. I know their financial resources are unparalleled in Australian sport but it’s the attitude ever since the...

I read a different article saying due to the huge logistical effort of hosting the lions they aren’t interested hosting any of the Rugby Championship this year. I don’t think the planned reforms will be good, if they play the Pumas home and away and then NZ home and Aus away the draw is unbalanced

It’s how young people consume sport. You wouldn’t say having beers with a mate and watching a game means you have a severe drinking problem

Never realised until now the one positive to come out of the Tahs season wasn’t even a NSW junior

Not really. Coming from Melbourne it’s an AFL dominated city nearly all my mates bet on the footy all same game multis. Before the season starts they will watch the storm as they can put on a same game multi. They have no interest in watching super rugby as they don’t care about it and there is...

But if they offered same game multis it would get people to watch the sport who otherwise wouldn’t as all of a sudden they are invested in the outcome

SA has already said they have no interest in hosting it
