Or the USA Eagles/Canada. The Eagles are comfortably the 2nd best team in the Americas and with MLR just kicking off it's second season they are likely to continue to build from a breakthrough year in 2018. Certainly more competitive than either Uruguay or Chile if the Pumas are looking for a...

First of all, this season should be a solid improvement on the last across the board. The general consensus is that Toronto is the likely frontrunner having assembled a formidable squad. NY should be competitive in the very least. Seattle should be a contender. I'd probably go as far as to...

Seattle has had some late preseason changes. Thanks to the shutdown they've had to change coaches late in the game thanks to visa delays. Though it won't effect their structure as their new coach James Walker has been part of the organisation for a while. Kicks off on Sunday with New Orleans...

Was kind of referring to the rapidly growing regions that aren't and won't be represented using the traditional structures.

The Pro14 have just launched a OTT service aimed at countries without current broadcast coverage. Surely SANZAAR could emulate this.

The U18s competition is a good initiative. I hope that they look to be a little more inclusive in this in the future and look to involve teams from other areas in Sydney (.i.e. Penrith, the Macarthur) down the line.

I never proposed a national club competition. I mentioned the talk of it when I entered Colts and that the typical club issues and stubbornness around not wanting to compromise on what each potential candidate wanted is what was always going to get in its way. But if you want to do this. Fine...

Yes. They do. They've talked about being the true third tier and having that status in the past. A large part of the funding debate centred around this very issue. As for short sightedness. The clubs can fill both roles but choose to allow this stubborn and shortsighted belief of all or...

What do you think the chances are of that happening? Not great if you ask me for a couple of reasons I'd imagine.

Essentially, yes. Which is a bit short sighted in my opinion. They could comfortably establish a Premier competition separate of but still intrinsically linked to the club system that would allow for the inclusion of teams from further afield. Short sightedness is the reason the SS has never...

You'd imagine so.

I'd be more interested in whether any of the Shute Shield clubs would be up for the trip to Perth once a year.

And that's all fine. Just wish they'd communicate exactly what the hell is going on a little more.

Why did we have to send Hegarty up north? Would have preferred he stay than signing Hunt.

Ahead of the Jan 26th season kickoff New York have announced there regional broadcast partner in the form of SportsNet NY. This has pretty much everyone I know in the NY metro area (which includes most of New Jersey and Connecticut) really exicted as this is a very prominent sports channel in...

You should do up your CV and submit it to the Unions and RA. Because clearly you have more nous and imagination than their current Social Media managers. Totally sincere here.

And there's already speculation about expanding the Premiership to 16 teams and ringfencing.

The key to any success will be the respective teams ability to connect and engage with the existing scene as well as support initiatives designed to grow both playing numbers and spectators in general. These things will take time and hopefully all involved understand that this will be at the...

This bloke said that the Falcons will form the core of the Malaysian franchise. They will be basing the team there for 5 months of the year.
