Come the fuck in or fuck the fuck off.

Could see them all making themselves eligible for 2016 and being selected, as everybody is looking to pinch a Bledisloe while the Blecks are transitioning. But otherwise I don't see Overseas players being selected before 2018 Rugby Championship, unless there's a significant injury crises or...

Didn't think there would be a worse dive than Hoggy's at the World Cup. Just proven wrong.

I'd have gone Goromaru for Savea, Nakarawa for Wyn Jones, Biggar for Carter, A. Smith for Laidlaw, Godzema for Hooper and Pocock the winner.

Both '97 birthdays I think so they've both got 2 years of under 20s to worry about first!

All the players distribution should be dealt with through some ARU fiddling. 1. All Super Rugby Players* contracted for season 20XX and Season 20XY are required to nominate an NRC side for Season 20XX, by May 31st 20XX, or within a fortnight of signing a contract extension, whichever is later...

Maybe he loves Dunedin? Or the Highlanders? Or the people he plays with there? Given that it's now season 4, plus he played a season of ITM for Otago, yes? Not unfeasible to suggest he'd be very happy to play there for less money or starting time, as long as it didn't jeopardize his...

1/3 is 10-12. If we signed 2 a year that'd be 11, 12 if you include Sefa. Still, 1 a year would get us to 7, thats about 1/5th of the squad I'd be happy with that too.

Yeah. The likelihood is that between those 4 and Paia’aua, 1 or 2 will flop, and at least one will either leave in search of gametime or be headhunted by another side. As long as you figure out which 2 or 3 are the best and strive your hardest to retain them, you should come out on top.

Great to see us go from having 1 sort of Victorian in Sefa, to 3 bona fide Vics in Siliva, Sione and Rob. Perhaps optimistic, but if maybe a 1/3 of the squad was Victorian by 2020, that would be great. For all their on field issues, the Force have done very well getting their locals up and...

If its a universal award, the year will probably be from November internationals 2014 to end of world cup 2015, and so on and so forth.

Previous 12 months I'd guess?

Think there's some conflict between the Sunwolves, the JRFU and the Top League clubs that seems to be encouraging players already signed for Super Clubs and playing when fit to re-sign. Would be happy for as many as possible of the RWC squad to join them though.

Qwerty.

That's who I forgot! That's a nice one. Can cover 10, 12 and 15, so gives us flexibility in recruitment.

So what's that? 33 players signed? Might have missed one or two. Hookers (3) Hanson Leafa Siliva Props (6) Toby Weeks Cruze Hagan Metcher Cocker Locks (5) Jones Timani Retallick Jeffries Cummins Backrowers (6) Jordy Colby McMahon Fuglistaller Thompson Fox Scrum halfs (3) Stirzaker Meehan...

Course it's not due to DW. It's a small factor. But ITV will want 4pm because historically that'll be around when Sport rates highest in the UK. Avoiding traditional prime time means they'll pick up significantly more of the casual market as well. While no right minded Rugby fan would ever put...

Strictly Come Dancing at 7, Doctor Who at 8.15. UK FTA broadcast is rather rigid sometimes. They'll chew away viewers. I don't have the stats on hand, but basically whenever DW and RWC come up against each other, both suffer, DW forums quite vocal on that.

Also, if the final is played at 4, people can switch over to BBC after and watch Doctor Who!
