I have little doubt that if ASIC put significant resources into investigating any company they would find significant problems. But at the moment I think ASIC has far more important targets than the ARU, like the whole finance sector, the banks and power companies

What is a "real deal"? I am sure deals were offered, I am certain none were worth his value on the international market

I don't think there is a player in aus who couldn't be better compensated by going O/S. So the premise that any team can "low ball" someone is mute IMHO, they are all low balled. TPN was going O/S last season and was always going O/S when he could find a contract, I can understand why no team...

My understanding is that Folau makes the majority of his cash via third party deals. It will be interesting to see if he gets any blow back from his SSM stance when those deal are renewed

I would guess TPN is getting a shit load more than any Aus side could offer playing in the UK For a guy in the twilight of his career I hope he is making enough to set himself up

It will mean nothing, they can be a damning as they want, the decision has been made

Pretty professional win IMHO We got defended hard and in our faces, we kept our structures and found a way We are starting to work harder off the ball as well. Look at Colemen's try, it was made by the line Kuridrani ran to suck in two defenders

Three young props being signed is interesting

If I was Gatland, I would be sending a load of high balls at the Wobs Beale and Foley (the two most likely to be doing kick returns) are also a tad patchy under the high ball

I think McCalman and Hanigan both share quality workrates, they get shit done, but McCalman's individual efforts at the moment are of a better quality. I think the shopping list for that third backrower is a decent 3rd lineout option that meets the workrate expectations with superior individual...

My concern is our accuracy at the breakdown, we were turned over a load last week due to mediocre cleanouts.

McCalman fits that bill

That fits with the comments re North's players Will Miller and Nick Palmer training for contracts

I think hunt is odds on if fit

More trying to understand what they are trying to do Frankly I am just getting sick of the endless negativity and moaning around here I guess I try to have a different outlook We beat the ABs and score a million against Japan and the "vibe" around here seems to be we are supporting a...

It is also not unreasonable to appreciate that Cheika, Larkham & Grey are working with these guys every day for months on end and aren't idiots

He won't be
