Actually he might be otherwise occupied.... In all seriousness though, I'm not sure he's the right fit. He's a successful and experienced coach, but as much as he has been an agent of change wherever he has coached he's not exactly known for building sustained success and long lasting programs...

I can't think of many better ways to spend a weekend, pity I don't live on that side of the world anymore :(

I'd be pretty happy to have him, he's around the right mark of experience in charge of club sides and has had some success (though maybe not as much as I'd like). I had figured he'd be locked down by now when he announced he was done at Connacht at the start of the season. Apparently he's not...

He's a brilliant player but I'd be very hesitant to sign him. Not sure how much he has left to give, at least on the field.

Ben Toolis (Scotland) and Jake Ball (Wales) could be good options in that vein - both already retired from test match rugby with the added advantage of being Australians and will be eligible in the next year or two so won't occupy a foreign spot in the squad. The fact that they're Australians...

I think Petaia might have been the youngest at around 19 and a half when he debuted against Uruguay at the 2019 world cup. Though it is worth noting that he had 2 super seasons at that point and had toured with the wallabies on the previous eoyt, only missing his debut as a late withdrawal for...

Chiefs quaking in there boots here, after they were put in there place by the Reds during the regular season the whole squad must be at a loss for what to do here. No-one can deny they've had a good run this year and there's no shame in loosing to a better side, hopefully they're not too hard on...

He doesn't feature anywhere near enough to be the worst. It's Harrison, hands down.

I'm still pretty surprised the rebels didn't make a bigger play for Werchon, given his connection with the Gordon's and the relative youth of the Reds 3 other 9s.

I'm not sure the issue is as much the top 8 finals as it is the quality of the bottom half of the comp right now.

Yeah. Hopefully the Chiefs realise it'll be a hollow title for them if they don't beat the Force and get another shot at us in the way there.

Has been the Reds worst game of the season, but it is great to see the Drua making the finals at the expense of the Highlanders.

A win on aggregate from a two game series in New Zealand is bloody good result, bring on the World Cup.

Surely that's a time wasting penalty

That's a shocker

Very disappointed in our discipline after a fair bit of improvement this season

Drua hacking the matrix there, ball disappeared into the digital signage

Tense half in tough conditions. Not surprising, this is just about knock out rugby for both sides.

Not sure it was the right call to shift O'Connor back to 10. Paisami has been good at 12 but we're looking a bit disjointed.

Good to see the scrum rewarded, it'll be more important today than most
