    Waratahs 2017

    Sarries also have him at 6'5", which I think is conservatively 195cm, which is more Luke Jones height rather than Ned Hanigan.

    NRC Rnd 2: Brisbane City v Western Sydney Rams

    Paraka has looked so good at this level for 3 seasons in a row now. Why can't he replicate that at the Soup level? Is it just down to his fitness/physique? And why can't he get that right, he only looks like he's put on 5kg of muscle and only lost the same in fat? Pretty poor for two fully...

    Western Force 2017

    Surely not! Four Super Starting standard, if not better in Carter, Enever, Staniforth and Arnold isn't overkill at lock. So much so that Fardy can play his preferred 6 after an excellent season the previous year in the second row? Having so many tightheads that they can choose to play...

    NRC Rnd 2: Brisbane City v Western Sydney Rams

    Small sample size, but I've enjoyed the neutral games far more than previous seasons. Is it just that the Rays and Rams aren't "easybeats" anymore, is it that the fitness is a little bit better overall, or am I imagining things

    NRC Rnd 2: Sydney Rays v Perth Spirit

    Liked Rory O'Connor. Very FatCat like in his turnovers. Fast track him to Reserve loosehead at the Tahs.

    Sydney Rays .. NRC Team Official Thread

    Also, NPC will be costing the best part of fuck all, all it'll cost is the relative pittance for the broadcast rights themselves. NRC will cost quite a bit of money to cover. Streaming will require fewer cameramen, fewer broadcast team members, cheaper commentary members, fewer...

    Reds 2017

    Obviously you're exaggerating, but: Speight will be fit for next game Sefa will be eligible before the Argie game Horne will be fit next season Koroibete and Rona are coming back to Union And Kellaway will have another full year at Super Level under his belt. That's before you even rule out...

    Wallabies v Springboks - Suncorp, Brisbane, 10th September 2016

    Timani is a decent pilferer. Doesn't time it as well as a Fardy or a Pocock, but if those tits are on the ball at the right time, you will not shift him.

    NRC onwards and upwards

    Clever move. Nowhere near the same issues with money, travel and competitiveness as there would be in Super Rugby. Hopefully boosting the profile of the NRC. Smart use of World Rugby dollars. And the coup de grace is that the NRC doesn't overlap with the 7s season, so most of those players are...

    NRC Rnd 2: Melbourne Rising vs Queensland Country

    Bip played 10 at Box Hill a couple of times, when JD was subbed for the Rising a couple of times last year, and ran at 10 in preseason when he was the third string scrummie.

    NRC Rnd 2: Melbourne Rising vs Queensland Country

    Would like more info on the whereabouts of Colby, Siliva, Dom and Maddocks, but I still don't mind the team at all. Need Jack to hit the line and pass backwards, and it should be a win if the forwards front up.

    Northern Hemisphere Season 16/17

    3 games a week, I think the 3 that BT chooses to cover, but I'm not sure. Leinster v Treviso, Scarlets v Munster and Connacht v Glasgow this week. Last two should be good, crap choice on the friday night fixtures though, the Italians plus the Dragons. Leinster is the best of a bad bunch, but...

    Bledisloe 2 - Wallabies vs All Blacks, Wellington, 27 August 2016

    Didn't want to ever call a teacher sir again when I moved from Scotland, so many didn't deserve it and it was the correct term, at a bloody government school. So glad it wasn't the done thing here. Then had a great male teacher that I couldn't help but refer to as Sir, he definitely deserved it...

    He had an NRL training contract at some point too if he's the one I'm thinking of.
