Lilo should play 12 if Gits, To'omua and Beale are unavailable. Next question would be if you need another 10 in both the squad and the 23.

TBF, there was a statistic a couple of weeks ago stating that only the Stormers, Crusaders and Rebels hadn't conceded tries after 7 phases.

Reid's biggest problem is that with the exception of turnovers, he's dealing with a "Everything you can do, I can do better" from Seany. Whereas Colby is far more complementary, being both a significantly superior breakdown player, and a genuine link player in phase play rather than just bash it...

Based on your posts Lou, I think the only one with nothing of value to say is you.

Arrived in October 2013 as part of the Island Breeze program. So he should be able to play on the November tour if Chieka assessed him worthy.

Not based on his whistle work. He's frustrating on the sidelines, but fairly consistent. Issue was he looked to be intimidated by the experienced players on the field . McMahon and Stirzaker were regularly dismissed with nary a word, when Moore, Lilo and Pocock (who shouldn't be talking to the...

More than a bit of a grub TBH. Heading with the elbow, little knees at ruck time, lots of unrealistic attempts at the ball that go unpunished, when a half second timing issue or not obvious enough release from a Pocock or a Gill would be a full penalty. Top it off with the fact that he seems to...

The Hoff quite clearly isn't ready for further honours.

Boring rugby upcoming.

Bloody hell Rebels. Yes, the penalty was won off an offside tackler, but Christ, defend better than that.

Did you confuse consistent for a compliment. Otherwise bloody Rebels. 3 or 4 missed tackles, then a two man overlap after all the scrambling.

Glad I'm not a n outright Wallabies fan. Think it'd be hard to take having Moore in my 23. 2nd try was just turning good ball into bad. Turnover was good, ball spread quickly, Jack correctly identifies the space behind and kicks. All goes to shit. Kick is a grubber rather than a thump...

Some just desserts as Lilo misses a penalty that should have gone against Carter for obstruction.

Rebels had stayed on the Storm's good side, specifically stating they weren't gonna pursue any players. I'd almost argue that the ARU contribution could be reasonably substantial as a consequence.

Wonder if we're genuinely looking for another centre or just putting out offers to as many quality players as possible. If it's the first one, Jim Stewart hasn't been getting a look in at the Tahs, think he and Hodge would gel quite successfully as a long term center pairing. Edit: Sione is my...

The workaround is to copy and Paste the title into Google, as google news Archive won't show it unless they have full access to it or something like that.

When the Club makes the announcement, I'll update the OP :p

http://www.worldrugby.org/news/158737 Pools for Japan 2019 to be drawn in May 2017 (better than last time I guess but still eh). Rankings for the next 7-10 months are as important as they'll ever be.

The long and the short is that including Wynne and Elkington in the squad itself makes it stronger, but the real benefit is having the big 5 available for every match. Fagerson, Ritchie and Kinghorn only played one game each in the 6 Nations, while Cummings missed one and Hastings two. Fagerson...

Last Comment on our boys before the shit talk in the lead up to the game. This is a very very good Scottish side (with Scottish of course being the key word). Fagerson and Cummings have 33 and 9 Glasgow caps each, and Fagerson a Full International one. Ritchie and Kinghorn have 16 and 17...
