I forgot all about Cordias but I am happy with his selection. He is an out and out 7 and Link wouldn't just drop someone in it. Also Shatz is there if needed.

I think that they will go with Shatz and hope he can play 80 or use AWH and Higgers as left and right flankers late in the game as they did on Sunday. Butler could be an option but think Link may just play a heap of locks. Mitch Wade isn't a chance as he is now playing hooker, has put on a bit...

Is it on the same time this week? I looked on the planner but couldn't see it.

I think that you will find, and I say this with the utmost respect, that unless you have coached someone to be a worse kicker at Super Rugby level you can't really comment on it.

I have to say that Mooney was good at spotting talent but I have serious questions over his coaching ability especially at senior level. I don't think that he could get the most out of the players and most of the gains in the teams style were on the back of the quality of the players. They beat...

I think I must be coming down with something because what WJ is saying makes complete sense to me. Sure most people aren't coming home from work on Saturday night but the 5:30 time slot still isn't great. I struggle to watch games then on a Saturday as I have kids to deal with and a lot of...

I think the great thing about the Reds coaching structure is how few people are involved. Link runs the show and looks after the forwards, Jim McKay (biggest unsung hero in Australian rugby) looks after the backs, Matt Taylor is in charge of defense and Alec Evens does a bit of scrum work. They...

If the Reds had everyone available I would still have Lucas at 15 at the moment. His form is great. Tackles like a demon and has some good touches with the ball. Don't think he will be in the RWC squad but if he made it I wouldn't complain. Is better value than some big names going around.

I must say that Ben Lucas does a great job for the Reds. He tackles his heart out and comes into the line as second ball player really well. He has no fear and is happy to take on guys who are close to twice his size. I couldn't leave him out of the starting 15 the way he is playing.

Don't give them any money. If Fiji don't go to the World Cup the people will uprise and throw out the military rule. They are just trying to get a bigger cult of the pie.

I can't see the issue with the last penalty. Richie was pushing his luck all day and Stu was onto him. He could have taken the space and they would have won the game. In saying that either team could have won but I'm happy the Reds did. Reds will play in the finals now and I just hope they get...

3, Quade Cooper 2, Beau Robinson 1, Will Genia Thought there were quite a few guys who were unlucky not to get points.

Don't let people use your computer when on the piss. I'm just lucky they didn't post anything abusive (I hope).

Really pumped for this now. Wish Foxsports were running a longer pregame show as I'm having to watch the Lions play the Crows. Just came home from a kids Birthday party and it was the topic of conversation between all of the Dad's who aren't big rugby fans.

I watched the first 60 mins of Uni v Sunnybank. Sunnybank were the better team in my eyes for the first half. They had most of the possession and territory but couldn't convert it into points. They also have an issue getting quick ball from the rucks giving Uni time to get their defensive line...

They seem to be enjoying the 1 point wins.

It will be great to see a sea of Red at Lang Park on Sunday. I really hope the rain holds off and 52,000 show up.

If the Fainga'a name carries so much weight in Brumby land then why did the twins move to the Reds? From what I recall Ant was unwanted and Saia wouldn't sign unless Ant was too. I thought it was silly at the time but they seem to be of great character. The more I see of them the more impressed...

Top of the table clash at Uni this weekend. The students v the Bank. It's ladies day and they are expecting 400 girls to show up.
