The amount they'd be willing to stump up would be determined by the projected visitor numbers and there predicted economic impact and the competitions overall reach. Which should in theory see them come up with more tham the $30m the Asian Cup managed.

I did but for some reason it kept pushing in some other unrelated text that was screwing it up.

I was going to put a gif of Bart Simpson and Testify but god damn this site and its issues. Anyway, with everything Paul says in that interview I have to wonder if he may be at least somewhat familiar with this place.

RA have announced the formation of a national women's 15s competition to run alongside Super Rugby called "Super W". It will feature teams from the four remaining Super Rugby franchises and wait for it. WA as well. Will only run over a 6 week period. Which is a start I guess. But it would be awesome to...

They've completely lost me. Fuck the SS.

The overall quality of the play on show is really pleasing to see. Definitely a jump up from last years edition. Some really promising talent on show. The little No.2 WA is a really good little player. Got a bit too excited in a tackle leading to a yellow but before that she had been cleaning...

Why don't you do us all a favour. Reach down between your legs. Feel about for the tuft of hair you'll find down there and grip it good and proper. Now, and this is important. Pull your head out of your own arse. They can ban me for that. I really don't care. The only reason any Rugby exists...

I actually grew up in the region. That being beyond the ANZAC Bridge. I was one of those kids who had to move clubs eastward in order chase better opportunities because it is a practical wasteland in terms of playing opportunities in the region. That's a fact. I still live out west as well. In...

I'd like to read into these developments as positives regarding the IPRC as well. Hopefully we won't be disappointed.

Many people often do. Apparently it can take up to 3 generations to break a cycle of violence and unfortunately far too many get caught in that cycle. At the same time there has to be a willingness to break it. My grandparents had a very volatile relationship in my fathers younger days. And...

Certainly look to set up competing franchises in the current market and then look to bring them to their knees.

A BILLION fucking dollars. They are looking to scupper a bloke who is looking to invest A BILLION FUCKING DOLLARS in the game. World Rugby should be on the phone to RA and telling them to short their shit out and get this through. Fucking numpties.

It would have to be based here. NZ is a non-starter as Kiap points out. You could either look to run a combined squad or two individual squads but open them to diaspora players as well as a means of identifying more talent for the islands.

They do seem to be quite skilled in most if not all aspects of the game.

Being good at the hands on side of it screams the makings of a really good Assistant Coach as opposed to a Head Coach who needs to be more rounded. So, a move to focus more on that side of his skill set could prove fruitful. Hopefully.

Good. While this is a significant step up for him I really like how Cron seems to be able to get his teams playing open, skillful Rugby that's always great to watch. With the added factor of actually winning while doing so. Seems to be able to get the best out of his squad. Which is what a good...

The ratings will do fine for that game. It's a final. Featuring Australia. In Australia.

There was a proposal posted on The Roar earlier this year based around a very similar concept to the one you've suggested. Focused more on Australia and New Zealand but quite similar and at the time I thought it was quite a good idea. From memory the entire thing would be run and won within a...

The world has always been in a state of flux. It just occurs at greater speeds now. Which makes it more noticeable. T20 is condensed not necessarily sped up as much as many believe. It certainly hasn't overly simplified either. It offers the same level of entertainment as the 50 over format but...

Perhaps. But there's also the fact that it doesn't require a huge commitment of time in order to watch and enjoy an entire season of competitive matches.
