I'm sorry mate but you wrote This statement reads that your pouring on the blame to Sam Greene individually like as if he is the fault we are losing? If you want to talk about the selection politics then go right ahead but Maybe don't make statements like this above as it's open for the wrong...

Good point but what I meant is a high profile Rugby Union player. When was the last time a Matt Giteau type signed with the REDS?

Izzy & JOC (James O'Connor) are both pipe dreams. When's the last time the Reds threw money at a high profile player??? NEVER!!! They build from within (& rightly so, we are the mecca of football talent in all of Australia) But just for once I'd love to see a interstate superstar team up with the REDS...

You didn't answer my question how Sam Greene is single handily losing games for Wests week in & week out. Seems to me u want to take a cheap shy at the kid without elaborating why & how he is losing games for Wests?

My counter argument to that is a rule change in 2013. Where as Colts are now allowed to play reserve grade footy and not ruin their eligibility in premier colts. To me that rule change indicates that the QRU believes most boys are not ready to make the step to premier grade & that allowing...

How'd did you come to that conclusion Rugbywatch? I don't believe there are statistics to back up your argument, you only have your personal opinion. It's kind of hard to compare Apples to Oranges. Paddy James plays Colts? If so he is a boy amongst boys. Sam Greene I believe has played every...

:rolleyes: Hmm... Care to elaborate?

Well sorry to sling Mud on QC (Quade Cooper) but if the order came from Link/Reds brass then IMO it's the wrong call. Hopefully Quade & CFS are playing (allowed to play) this weekend cause Match Fitness will be crucial against the Warratahs.

I was a little disappointed to not see Quade Cooper playing rugby this past weekend. Granted his talents in that Souths outfit might of had a more lopsided result to Souths against my clubBUT............. IF this guy wants to play for the Wallabies again (at least under Deans reign) then he...

Same rule applies to the Western Force as does in the Mining community. FIFO If you want all these athletes to move West away from their families then a premium must be paid. Honestly who wants to live in Perth? (EastCoastJAB)

What's up with the Rebels head coach position? I have heard a interesting scenario where that when Robbie Deans is eventually let go as Wallabies coach that he might be a candidate for the Rebels job. Obviously this is all dependent of if the ARU terminates Deans & the Rebels job is Available...

A lot of this talk about Sam Greene playing Colts is selfish talk about people wanting what's best for Wests Colts program to succeed. (It's been a rough couple of years in the Colts) Greene narrowly missed out on making the AUS U20 team so he is definitely on the Academy/Super Franchises...

Ooh my bad.. looks like the bench was announced in that article.

Going by the reports that the XV has been named Anyone wanna take a stab at jersey 16-22? 5F/2B combo 1B being Beale, I think Phips misses out and they bring in someone who's gonna add something to the backline. Would be interested to hear what everyone thinks would be the 5 FWD...

Maybe cause when they review the premier grade footage they see a lot of jersey collar punches (harmless) , eskimo kissing headbutts & nipple rubbing chesty bumps. IDK but a referee will always have his account & is about as believable as your mate who told you he caught a fish this {...

I think you'll find that Nick Gregorski had the last laugh that season when he captained his Premier grade Wests outfit to a upset victory over Brothers at Crosby Rd leading to Souths taking out the spoils of 2011 wooden spooners. PLUS the boots have been unhung. Gregorski was last seen running...

What does everyone think of the weekend results? *Did the Breakers catch the Heavies offguard or what? Definately a tale of 2 Halves. 47 unanswered points by the Heavies must have the GC Coaching Staff fuming with Defense being a focus at training this week. *The Brethen got dealt by the...

Is TOUA under contract next season? I think the REDS might target Cummins & J'OC so maybe Toua is not needed.

Just a few thoughts/Q's on the REDS 2014. *Does JOC (James O'Connor) signing a club rugby contract with the Pirates in Sydney affect his chance of signing with the REDS? I do know that the Brumbies don't allow their players to play in other local competitions. *If/When Link gets the Wallaby gig? Do any of...

Wow Aiden Toua played Club Rugby on the weekend? I assumed he might of been injured when you account for all the Wallabies missing & he didn't even feature in the REDS 22 man team against the Lions. (but it seemed strange Shipperley was on the bench, Reds do have a lot of depth at outside...
