You think he wants to keep Crawford? Seems to me he put a line through his name early this year. Ben V also seems to be right out of favour as well. Maybe he is willing to punt on Kellaway and/or Harry Jones in the future?

Nothing is utter bullshit. In theory, your concept is right,but not in practical terms IMO. BIL or Bled Test matches are highly sought after by cities to host,and they are prepared to pay substantial amounts to host these events. But the 7's are not in the same ball park. Any suggestions that...

That's just theoretical bullshit. In the real world,last year people were hoping crowds would be big enough to ensure the event wouldn't be moved somewhere else. They probably only needed to promise to run buses to the event,to win the bid. If visitor spends $3k on his holiday,and $200 of...

You are comparing apples and oranges. A city bids for an event,based on perceived economic benefits. As a promoter for a specific event,profitability is about tickets sales,hospitality and sponsorship if allowed by the governing body. The two are different issues. In this utopia where Australia...

If You go to HK and spend $12,873. The HKRU gets exactly the $900? They get for the face value of the tickets. Who gives a fuck about the economic benefits to the Hoteliers/Publicans of the host city. There will be no summer series to address specific funding issues the ARU might have. The 7's...

Not at all. Who ever wished Izzie to fail? Giving players who never succeeded at a professional level,an express pass in front of proven performers at SS level,is a different issue.

I've not had time too look at the accounts. If the Rebels have been consolidated within the ARU's financials,to whom is the $5.5M loan to?

They quote"ordinary business" There are always extraordinary items. Fx for example is always listed separately,often for larger amounts than $2M.

I have no idea what relevance it has,but I find those stats on players used interesting.

Maybe they should think about using a Rugby ball in some of these sessions?

It's a burden every franchise would be chuffed to carry.

Some of them are only part timers. They have second jobs maintaining some of the grounds for SS clubs,apparently. Remember there was an investigation about this a while ago?

They were right in that game to the very end. Their set pieces,particularly their lineout,were much better than the Rats. That gave them more than their share of the ball,and it helped with the territory sides if things as well. They will beat some good teams this year.

Is that another way of saying Horne bitched him at contact?

Whoa! Is that Buddy's car,or the Buddy incident? Or did Buddy crash his girlfriends car,because his mate crashed his? Bags not parking my car in the members when the Swans are training!

WTF? He makes his run on debut in 1's,scores a double & shakes hands with the 4ths coach the next week?

I doubt that they have speared him. I was very critical of the players actions,and thought it deserved some sanction. But showing him the door seems harsh to me.

No aspirations for finals footy?

His form might be OK in the SS,but he is flattered by the strength surrounding him. Remembering he has had the benefit of a professional off/ pre season,and is now competing against amateurs. His form for the Tahs A earlier this year,was average at best. He has had his chance. Next.

What is the definition of a League boy? IMO a "League Boy" is someone who plays League exclusively.
