I think the Reds win by 3 tries here. just a gut feeling!

Ok thats a good point about game fitness and Higgers selection logic probably plays here too but how do we account for the bye week when it comes to game fitness? All the Reds squad probably spent a good portion of their time smashing milton mangos and red tulip easter eggs and Thorns smashing...

I think Tui gets his jersey back. His too good of a talent to leave on the bench. Douglas certainly stepped up and performed but Tui is head and shoulders better then him IMO TSR

13 Warratahs out of 15. That's not a team of the week, That's a Cheika Wallabies lineup. The time we get rid of this underperforming Cheika and his clear NSW Biasism and install more Queensland Reds. Thats when Australian Rugby will return back to greatness. Ok back on topic :)

Amazing his age too. he is such a warhorse. Wonder if he'll keep playing footy once his body can't handle super rugby anymore? Hopefully George is inspired how far into Brad Thorn career he kept playing footy. I could totally envision seeing George Smith in clubland cameos now & then.

What was the official diagnosis on Perese knee injury? I seem to recall it was either a partial ACL tear or a meniscus tear.. now i don't want to play Internet Doctor here but I think the 5 week window was very generous and if it's the partial ACL tear there's a chance if it hasn't healed by his...

Was playing in Japan last year.

Gotta disagree with you Jason. GPS were outstanding that's a great result considering the offseason concerns of a talent drain at Yoku Rd. Not easy going into a hostile venue like that and keeping the Filth scoreless. GPS 2nd Grade got towelled by Brothers so I assume Brothers 1st grade there...

I like Kerevi at Inside Centre. Think it hides his defensive liabilities by having a excellent defender at the 10 and then 2x extra guys to out wide from him in 13 & 11/14 to pick up any overlap issues and defending them. I have seen some suggest his defending better this year but thought he had...

Thanks for those photos TOCC. I think upgrading the McLean Stand like that is best use of dollars because it's that part of the stadium which is crumbling. I'd personally like to see the grand stand a bit bigger. I'm not talking like the other side of the field but having some boxes but more...

Whoever is Brads Battler (reds fan?) in GAGR2LATE must be contemplating the bittersweet trade off of fantasy football. Looks like he had me beat tbh and then in the 79th minute Daugunu runs 100m and scores a try to finish with 30 points! (Currently have a 30 point or so lead) You want to see...

When Russell Crowe is winning Oscars “Australian” When Russell Crowe is throwing telephones “Kiwi”

Heavies over the Tigers 29-27 Norths and Sunnybank drew 27 all Gallopers too good for Brothers 29-0 Bulldogs come storming from behind in 2nd half to win 32-25

Amazing the state of the ground at Gold Coast compared to the 3 livestreams up in Brisbane. It’s a mud bath here at Nerang.

Reds website in the premier grade section still shows all the old Ezines and media photos from the 2017 season. I assume they'll continue with the weekly preview email/magazine but I don't expect a reboot of the website by week 1. The Ezine magazine would sometimes be emailed out after 5pm on...

You are crazy. Folau is an elite rugby player. Tries are king and he scores them at a elite level

Good call to whoever predicted that Higginbotham would be coming off the bench. I argued against it earlier in the week saying captains don’t come off the bench. Wonder if he will get the C when he returns to starting XV

Just a cool little feature for anybody who's interested at looking at lineups but it looks like some teams are uploading their lineups into rugbylink ahead of time. Not all positions are filled but you can click on fixtures and there is a blue icon to the furtherst right of the individual games...

Nabuli to club rugby. Unfortunately Nabuli isn't as flexible when it comes to positions he can play. he is a winger (doesn't play in the centres or at fullback) Duncan Paia'aua is a bit more flexible with the positions he has played (10, 12, 15) You can't let the axe fall on him when...

That Brothers price is incredible. Every year they are sniffing out a post season appearance. No way i'd ever put my money on the filth but I think it's great value.
