Agree. But I do not see many contenders in the local club scene. Maybe McCauley, and they signed him. Simmons was probably worth signing, in the circumstances, we already had Staniforth.

Wales and England did a lot last weekend, if that helps.

Getting a bit antsy, eh, Dave? This is not like you. If you really are using your real name you are one of a very tiny minority. On the other hand, the vast majority are happy to nominate their club and province affiliations. Glad to see people getting excited about a really important issue...

Mate, I do not care much either way. But I have noticed that the genuine supporters are happy to display their club logo.

Does anybody use their real name on a forum like this? What an amazing proposition. On the other hand, anybody who is a genuine club rugby supporter is proud of her or his team, and happy to be associated with it. Maybe a few nutcases enjoy playing around with the truth. They are fairly...

I'm just curious. This is the Shute Shield thread. Most of us, virtually all of us, are proud to nail our club colours to the mast.

If it is a stupid move it won't happen. On the other hand, if it does happen there will be a lot more publicity for the poor little Shute Shield than it has had for years and years. A much wiser man than I (and I suspect maybe he was a bit wiser even than some of the local experts) said...

Thanks for the input, champ. Which club do you support, by the way?

He seems to have been a good club man last season. So he deserves a bit of support, I reckon. Cannot see him playing in the national team again, though.

We are not talking about a contract with the Tahs, as far as I know, just a bit of trot around for the Woodies. Will he make first grade? Who knows?

If he is qualified to play, I am all for it. Great publicity for the club game, if it brings in a few more viewers/spectators, what on earth is wrong with that? And Dave, if we do not want ex-leaguies playing club rugby, who else should we ban? Bugger me, I grew up in an era when we were...

He threw a lot better, from what I saw (not the whole game, admittedly). But yeah, I think the times have passed him by.

On the other hand, the Wobbs Ten had better know how to play behind a beaten pack, eh?

Gee, one of our teams had to be there. Frankly we did not deserve the honour, did we?

Will Miller at 8. That is the height of ridiculousness. Or depth of ridiculousness, I should have said. BTW, when we are evaluating the strength of the Sunnies without their Japanese Test players, I think it would be fair to say that they still have a large number of pretty handy rugby...

Sexton is a much better 10 than Quade will ever be, unfortunately. He can do more than just kick and pass, by the way (oh, and defend too).

I seriously doubt that O'Connor would be telling the world exactly what he will be telling Cooper. Come on guys, this is paper talk. Not necessarily the truth, the whole truth, and only the truth, so help me, Jonah.

Good idea. The rich can subsidise the poor.

Hope he gets onto the field for the Highlanders. (Just a game or two in between Soup and Wobbs duties). Might get a few loig supporters to Chatswood.

It would all depend on what the constitution of RA says, wouldn't it? Not to mention the job description of the CEO?
