    2016 Under-20 Rugby World Championships - Manchester UK

    We lost that match, the Welsh didn't win it. Complete mess around in the backline, with Adam Hastings starting for bath, Blair Kinghorn playing for Edinburgh and Hutchison having to switch to 10, but still played well enough. I'll be hoping that they get the 2 of them and Ritchie back for Italy...

    6N: Wales v Scotland

    Yeah, it was, albeit mostly in comparison to the dire Ireland v France. Just not doing well enough for us. Potential Spoon off coming up in Rome. Hopefully Hogg, Maitland, Visser, Dunbar, Scott, Strauss and Ford are fit or considered match fit for then. Looking far too much like a repeat of...

    Ideas for NRC

    Maybe start to develop the players first. The Super Franchises are a nod and an announcement away from having fully aligned, partially ARU funded U20s sides. There's an opportunity for some sort of ARU scholarship setup, either just for South Australia or inclusive of Northern Territory and...

    Pre Season '16: Reds v Brumbies

    Was there direct and timely communication from the backroom staff of the Reds to their counterparts at the Brumbies about their intentions to wear the blue/grey/not red jersey? If there was, Brumbies fault. If there wasn't, it was the Reds fault. This is exactly why the home change tradition was...

    Pre Season - Force vs Asia Pacific Dragons

    Mid Canterbury? Heartland Championship Mid Canterbury? This will be ugly. Sent from my LG-P713 using Tapatalk

    Pre Season '16: Reds v Brumbies

    Much prefer that sort of Maul. Ball got passed back to Moore for the try rather than Pocock sliding back along 3 or 4 players. Sent from my LG-P713 using Tapatalk

    Northern Hemisphere Rugby Season 15/16

    Wish public transport to Broadwood was better. I know the SFA have heavily invested in it for Clyde and the Football Age grades, but watching the U20s play lovely rugby despite the piss weather made me wish it was a feasible choice for Glasgow.

    Ideas for NRC

    Unfortunate for the stars, who really turned it around, the poor first season combined with Uni going it more or less alone did spell doom. Should seriously help the talent though, if the Rams manage to get their fair share of Tahs and club players. It'll eliminate 2 rounds as well with 1 fewer...

    Pre Season '16: Reds v Brumbies

    Wicked brumbies side, only Smith, Mann-Rae, Dargaville and Coleman seem to be missing from a potential best 23. Do we have a stream? I'd like to watch that side.

    Brumbies 2016

    Brumbies thread is the wrong place. But I like Butler. He's a Super quality 7, and his size, nice hands and lineout ability make him a good option at 6 and 8 as well. But I like Colby as an out and out openside more. Plenty of tackles, plenty of turnovers or turnover opportunities, quality link...

    Didn't Pocock only move to Queensland in 2002, then moved to Perth in late 2005 to join the Force?

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    Fox buying the rights is great for World Rugby. They'd sell all 10 tournaments as a package, and Fox do the filming and commentary for the local event, as well as providing Greg Clarke for a couple of additional tournaments. It'd be a very difficult proposition to sell the local tournament as a...

    So Hagan in for big Dike? Decent swap. At least when Hagan doesn't play it'll likely be through selection rather than injury.

    Would need to get it on the anti-siphoning list IMO. Couldn't do it any other way.

    2015/16 Rugby 7's Round 4 - Sydney 6/7 February

    Incident aside, Joubers is still a very good 15s ref. I've definitely not been convinced by his performances in 7s. There's certainly some good Referees who've been on the series multiple seasons. With fewer refs likely needed (unless male referees get to do the women's sevens too?) surely the...

    2015/16 Rugby 7's Round 4 - Sydney 6/7 February

    Kingston was shit. Speight was less shit. But crap is crap, regardless of size or consistency. If Henry isn't going to play all 6 of the remaining tournaments, they need to cut their losses and play without him. Kingston's played 4, hasn't looked like improving, need to find someone else.
