I am really looking forward to seeing how Lane handles this game. What an excitement for him, vs his old 'region'. Then there's just: vs the powerhouse Stormers, 4 weeks ago he was playing for Manly. The Brumbies were Maccas, this has Michelin stars. His mental capability under this type of...

Don't you think Samo 2012 is playing well under the Samo 2011 model? I don't know, a la last game, with the massive and massively competent Stormers' forwards who will look to belt us relentlessly, I'd have liked Gill and Beau starting, and Schatz on minute 1 as well. Yes, his age is a factor...

Must be so; I'd put Lucas at 15 over the currently highly risky version of Morahan any day.

Apparently there's going to be 2 big soccer and league groups there that weekend as well. Tahs' fans will enjoy the breakfast sessions.

I loved seeing him comment on Aus S15 games live in early morning London when I watched the Tahs v Reds game Rnd 1 from London in February (as it happens, in the home of top flight rugby 'new media' baron). On screen, he looked and sounded in great shape.

It could be the greatest fucking thing since sliced bread for Australian rugby if well designed and executed. The current constitution, Board and Board representation rights by States in the 2012 ARU is all of anachronistic, biasing of good governance principles of 2012 vs 1922, preserving of...

Moono, this 'resignation' by RG is an absolute blessing in disguise for the Force, subject to the WA Rugby board emulating the 2011 ACT RU one and saying 'if there's a highly qualified world class rugby coach available with an excellent track record relevant to S15 rugby in WA, we will do...

Just a joke based upon sheer exaggeration, but a worried one given the KPI of 'hamstrings gone per week' this season that the Reds have incurred. One does start to get concerned that perhaps our S&C practices might need examining given this level of hammies gone - I gather there are conflicting...

Toua apparently out with hamstring (the 63rd Reds one gone in the last 2 days), Lane to start at 10, Harris 12... http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-sport/reds-eye-stormers-super-rugby-weaknesses-20120418-1x7ai.html

That's great. Then all the RUs can save a truckload of costs, pay each Head Coach $50,000 pa plus taxi fares.

Really looking forward mate! Love the way Stormers 2012 are really breaking through with an excellent running attack not always there before when you had great kickers and the famous Great Wall of Defence, but other bits were lacking. Now the whole dinner is being served in one sitting, and it's...

One thing that I do know PB: what with all your multiple 'hot and cold' statements about the Reds this year, you are totally fascinated by them. We receive the compliment in the way we know it's intended.

It's wholly in keeping for TT, I agree.

tl12, understand, but I reckon Link would have altered some plans after seeing the Stormers' final team, and confirmed injuries there, etc. It's a challenging situation, as Harris and Lucas and Toua are game-light, Lane is raw, huge to throw him up against a team far superior/bigger/harder than...

Maybe this has been posted before or all you Force guys know it, not sure, but Irish media mentioning that Totality Tony may be in the frame for the Force. Gee, if that happened, RD would kick off his 2012 campaign with a thin roster of support...

I don't know the answer but I do know the context was wildly different: then, the QRU was in disarray, nearly bankrupt, its Reds coach had been sacked, and it was virtually the laughing stock of the rugby world. It was hardly a context where quality coaches were lining up, fascinated by its...

There's an enormous amount of informative material in here re Reds and the whole of QLD rugby: http://www.redsrugby.com.au/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=6i33j2L4QLU%3d&tabid=654
