It isn't that not bad its just blue. Who cares if its missing a bit of white. I'm just annoyed it looks like a t-shirt but then again most jersey's are like that these days. Bring back the thick Canterberry jersey's i say!

The fit looks horrible. What is with the neck-line? They look super thin and tight. The design isn't horrible though can't exactly go wrong with an all navy blue jersey.

Another quality Aus player who seems to be leaving in peak form. :(

Yes! And also World Player of the year. ;)

I hope this is the case. But maybe he just doesn't want to invest heavily in the first year in case it doesn't get any traction at all and he can abandon plans the following year and lose less of his investment. I think this is just the case of testing if a market even exists (large enough to...

The biggest Legend of the game. And such a gentleman. RIP.

I agree. If i had my time again: 2007: Play for the Brumbies 2008: Win a title for the Brumbies, Play for the Wallabies 2009: Play in London for a year 2010: Return to the Brumbies, play for the wallabies 2011: Win a RWC 2012: Play in France for a year or 2 2014: Return to Aus, Play for the...

To be clear I don't see a problem with it either.

I doubt it. 9/10 players would say yes to that no matter what. A players mind-set should always want to play. IMO the call should always come from the coach - which is made by how the player performs in training and on the required fitness tests.

But he doesn't have to give up his fiancée in order to stay in Aus and play for the wallabies. I guess you could say, as a couple they value her career over his. Anyway, I've always hated the justification of "I'm leaving for family", in some cases it is very very true, but in most cases...

Can we really ride off the crusaders? I think they are always a real contenders too!

This would make sense to me if he signed for a year or two. But 3 years really hurts his prospects as an international rugby player - especially when he is on the verge of cementing a spot and leaving at probably peak form in his career.

2016 is our best chance for the title! Forward pack is ridiculously good. I think we have a pretty damn good chance.

I think Lilo will be past it by the time RWC 2019 comes around. To'omua should still be around but who know's what his form would be like after 3 years in the NH. Gits and Mitchell I think were exceptions and I doubt he will return a better player, his frequent concussions are also a worry. I...

I don't think he should be selected for the wallabies if he is going over sea's for 3 years. Only if it was a RWC year or we have an injury crisis should we do that. Might as well let Lilo and Beale fight it out or start giving Kerevi experience. Players in Aus should get priority.

It does open the door for Kerevi but it significantly weakens our squad. Kerevi is barely a super xv starter with one season under his belt. That lack of experience is a huge blow given To'omua has 30+ Test caps and has performed solidly at Test level. Hopefully Kerevi is naturally a quick...

Gits won't be there next year so that pretty much leaves the door open for To'omua to cement his spot. Maybe Cheika bringing on Beale instead of To'omua in the final was the turning point as that is his main rivalry for next year. I agree he will be very difficult to replace. I think Gits proved...

Horrible news. I thought Lilo would be the one to go... who is stuggling a bit with form, finding it hard to crack to wallabies and is closer to the end of his career then To'omua who seems to be peaking now.

Damn... To'omua leaving when it seems he's peaking as a player... that's the real disappointment for me. I don't mind players leaving because they struggle to get game-time or are nearing the end of their careers but for a player who would likely be an integral part of the Wallaby and Brumbies...

Don't think that's as bad as it first sounds. I like the looks of Frisby and even more-so Stirzaker.
