I don't care what it looks like as long as it lives in a cabinet at Ballymore.

While that is a good idea it doesn't take into account specific positions required. Say a team is short of Hookers due to injury and they have only used 32 players they will have to be allowed to pull in a Hooker if there isn't one in their remaining 3 unused players.

I'll put my hand up as forwards coach. There will be a strong focus on rolling mauls and I'm not a big fan of giving it to the backs unless they pass it back to a forward.

I am flying out on Friday 30 September and watching Samoa v SA at North Harbour that night, England v Scotland at Eden Park on the Saturday then driving to Hamilton for Fiji v Wales on the Sunday and I think I fly back on the Tuesday. Would have liked to catch a Wallaby game but it was cheaper...

That was awesome. Really enjoyed it. Well done.

I think Sarel might be a little bit better value than Andre but I guess we will have to wait and see.

I think a few people are taking the risk of staying home to watch the Semi in the hope that they make the final. I really hope that it is a sell out but I made the mistake of throwing my wife a birthday party this Saturday night (wasn't thinking about the rugby at the time)

The comp already has 4 trophies. 1 for the winner of each of each conference and one for the winner of the whole thing. I think that's plenty.

The talk is that he is being groomed to take over as CEO one day. It will be interesting to see if it happens.

Talk this morning that there were only 12,500 tickets left. I thought it would have sold out as soon as the Blues were confirmed as the opposition.

The Fainga'a's have been a very important part of the Reds success as has Robinson, Samo and to a lesser extent Harris. I am saying that NSW and Qld should look at locals first then go outside that group if required. Both teams have the local numbers to do so.

Having supported the Ponies and the Tah's in the finals that they have been in before I can say that I support Aussie teams first but I don't have an issue with people that don't. That's the great thing about sport is that you pick a team (sometimes for the most illogical reasons) and you back...

I hear Donald is looking to leave the Chiefs maybe the Tah's could pick him up? :fishing

My point was not that the crowds come because the Reds don't have leaguies or a foreign player. It is only because they are playing winning rugby. I believe that there is a big difference between a State team and a franchise. I believe that the Tah's and Reds work best when they are run as State...

Yet in Brisbane the Reds have no ex leaguie of foreign player (Claeb Ralph not counted) and the Reds are attracting the biggest crowds ever. I think that this is proof that it could work well in Sydney. It gives the community a much closer connection to the team.

Why is that. He was the best player in Brisbane in 2009 and Sydney in 2010. I would think that giving him a run would be a good way to go. I would be happy for him to come back to QLD as he would be on the bench to cover Genia. Also he would provide the Tah's with a reliable goal kicker. I...

Better to start Beau and see how long he goes for and bring Gill off the bench. I think Samo is a good chance of starting and the Reds will go back to a 5-2 bench.

Was talking to someone who was at the game and his opinion was that CSS 1 played quite well against GPS 1 but conceded a few trys at the end of each half. He said that CSS made 5 mistakes and GPS scored off all of them. That is thee difference between the teams. One group plays high level rugby...

Anae hasn't been playing for the last couple of week at the bank but is back to take on Easts tomorrow.
