    2015 NRC Barbarians Watch

    That's no a bad team, but surely there's a better uncontracted tighthead running around than good auld chubby. No offence to the lad, but he's really a loosehead that can play 3 a bit. Sent from my LG-P713 using Tapatalk

    Rio Olympics

    Even if you lose the qualifier, you should win the Repechage easy. Assuming Kenya qualify, and Samoa would pinch the Oceania spot ahead of you, Canada would be the only series regular in the Repechage. No offence to the others, but the non - Europeans won't be up to much. Portugal failed to...

    World Rugby to trial new Law variations

    NRC became a bit samey this year. Avoiding Penalty fests is important, but it swung far too much the other way. There's more or less no point in taking penalties unless you're exactly 7 or 8 up, 1 or 2 down, or tied. For mine, I think dropping the conversion back to 2 would be adequate. To...

    The League Media

    Who knew that changing the point of the attack would open up more gaps and hence metres and scores? Who knew that introducing short kickoffs would mean that not only can you get possession back off your own kicks, it means when you kick longer, there's more chance of it hitting grass?

    Is there supposed to be Canadian teams too? That'd be cool.

    Hayne? Is he not 31? Bit late for a switch.

    Los Jaguares 2016

    Assuming it sells out week after week, the atmosphere will be ridiculous. Worst comes to worst, if there's consistently more demand for tickets than there is available, they move to a bigger stadium in 2017. Sent from my LG-P713 using Tapatalk

    IRB Sevens 2015/2016

    That's a good one. Think us and Wales will struggle a bit more than usual due to top ups from about 1/2 the nations. Sent from my LG-P713 using Tapatalk

    Aussie Player Exodus

    Pyle basically did all the things a loosehead lock needed to do, but not all the things a lock needed to do, i.e. the trio of scrummaging, maul defence and physicality were lacking, despite strong carrying, good tackling and high quality lineout play, both individual takes and calling. Having...

    There's another 6-8 in the Championship too isn't there? Edit: According to the almighty Wikipedia: Bedford Blues Myles Dorrian Eaking trailfinders Harrison Orr Jersey Dave McKern Nick Haining London Welsh Ryan Hodson Moslie Scott Tolmie Nottingham Dan Montigue Rotterham Tim Cree

    Supposedly this one is sanctioned by USA Rugby, so don't think there would be issues that way. I'll believe it when the first ball is kicked. Sent from my LG-P713 using Tapatalk

    Pyle is out of contract come June. Would love him back at the Rebs, but if he was to partner Coleman at the Force, that wouldn't be a terrible thing for Australia Rugby. Paulie we have to wait till June 2018. Sucks. Any tighthead with 50 Super Caps at 23 is worth their weight in gold...

    We're 4 for the next season. Max Evans switched to a ProD2 side, while Euan Murray joined Pau and Rory Clegg joined Oyannax. Most of our boys go to England. Of the 55 odd playing outside Scotland, 45ish are playing in either the Premiership or the Championship.

    Problem with Lilo this season is that he didn't have something that set him apart from the 4+Beale that went. With Cooper ineligible and Gits unlikely to continue to be selected, at a guess, he'll start as the bench boy for a Foley-To'omua midfield partnership.
