Mark Chisholm is a bulldog for life. I believe if a pro player playing abroad returns to his junior club and had appeared in 4 matches (out of minimum 6 games required) then common sense should prevail and dispensation should be rewarded. Was Souths Hooker Paice ever aligned to Souths? To me...

Yeah. He was reserve hooker for the premiers in the finals last year.

Why can’t Souths pull the hooker from colts 1 as a option? I know it’s not ideal but it might be the best course of action if you are picking the hooker from 3rd grade because the 1st and 2nd grade hookers are unavailable. Souths better not go uncontested. Injuries suck but it’s going to bring...

I don’t know about that Bobby. I have a feeling Hewat may be on the outside looking in at Brad Thorn red squad. There was a internal trial a couple weeks back weekend before test matches concluded and all reds players were required not to participate at club footy that weekend. Found it...

I feel more confident Israel Folau is a done deal to reds. Georgina Robinson is merely speculating. A lot can happen on a tour to South Africa but when the Waratahs gets pumped on weekend by the lions you can expect an immediate announcement Folau to reds is done deal moment Qantas flight...

Sully the salary that Folau would be getting is basically mostly paid by the ARU. Just like those 2 exiled players at the magpies... they are essentially being paid by the ARU to play club rugby because the reds coach says they don’t factor into the reds future plans. The homophobic stuff with...

Not a fan? Or am I having trouble identifying your sarcasm?

Rob Puliuvea is a world beater with ball in hand and running. Constantly breaking tackles and making big runs. Defense and lack of angry mongrel letting him down. There was a game he was dropped to reserve grade this year but he did get his job back in the top team. Also I don’t know if I...

James Tuttle played a little bit of flyhalf for the gallopers this year. Whilst this is not his ideal position. I hear he has had a positive attitude back in clubland considering the rumours & circumstances. Perhaps Tuttle might be interested in learning the position a little more in a...

I tend to agree with you penguin. That it’s more in the vacinity of a red card but considering that QPR don’t have video replays available to the referees that it’s a yellow card at very least. Punches and dangerous tip tackles are red cards in premier rugby but a viscuous head high tackle...

That’s a yellow card every day of the week... but 2 wrongs don’t make a right. IF the Souths boy retaliated with fists & got suspension then the punishment is warranted. I don’t like to point fingers but someone mentioned previously Souths is a very ill discipline team. I just hope my bet...

Let them come back. I have no problems with the eligibility rules for playoffs teams I’m more fascinated if Jordan Petaia is playing anymore club rugby this year. He could essentially be selected for the Bulldogs Premker grade team next week help the Doggies retain the Pilecki-Shaw Cup then one...

Any Reds playing this week?

Of course not. Brad Thorn fans & critics can both agree how incompetent the QRU has been at top of the executive ranks. But what’s done is done. Brad Thorn now has the full 12 months to build a playing roster and get them ready for battle next January/February when the super rugby season kicks...

There was not many options for AC for Brad Thorn considering how late in the year (October 2017) he was hired. Japan/Europe competitions were in full swing and then the Super Rugby season was less then 3 months away. Slim Pickings mate.

I call BS on your doom & gloom of toxic culture at the reds scrubba.

The best thing Brad Thorn has done this season has made sure the playing group knows no job is safe or to be taken for granted. It makes players appreciate when they are selected in the XV or match day 23. I for one never saw DP/Nabuli returning to the ranks but after their exile on the bench...

Kane Douglas isn’t even a stalward of Queensland Rugby... a lot of anger over a guy who’s going to be remembered for his time playing for the Waratahs. Yes he plays hard & gave his all but I expect the amount of distaste at the Reds top brass for a player of David Croft (100+ games) not Kane...

Thanks for creating this thread Reg. The 2018 thread was starting to get very doom and gloom with gameday attendance numbers, incompetent front office management and inexperienced coaching setups. The likelihood of all those topics returning to this thread are probable but at the moment I can...

Hitting the piss is nothing like taking cocaine.
