If the finances are really as shit as they seem. JON's wild attempt to grab that first Lions game in 2017 seems reasonable when you view it as an act of desperation.

Yep, Placid, if he's not in the Rebs 23 will play for the Vic/Southern States U20s or whatever Club he's allocated to.

Aren't there 4 or 5 Unions in NSW as well? Surely that's a waste of resources and inefficient? I'll admit I'm very ignorant and am happy to concede if there's a good reason for it.

World Rugby World Rankings. Ha.

The Numbers are ridiculous. Of the 44 Georgians signed in the Pro12, Top14, Premiership, Championship and ProD2, 42 are forwards, 29 are props and 20 are Tightheads!

Dunno where else to put it. Hong Kong and Russia want a second tier World Cup. Not a theoretically bad idea. Implementation potentially a problem. http://www.scmp.com/sport/rugby/fifteens/article/1640171/irb-urged-set-second-tier-world-cup

Jordy plays for the Unitards. Gus Roberts, Ben Meehan, Pat Leafa and Lalakai Foketi were the allocated Box Hill. The first 2 played a lot, the other two not so much.

Righty tighty, lefty loosey.

True. Shouldn't be any hope for 2015 though. This article from 2013 confirms PAE signed for next year: http://www.melbournerebels.com.au/news/article/rabodirect-rebels-continue-to-bolster-ranks And this one from the end of the season confirms Weeksey is signed...

Fuck, you're right. That's what you get having not spoke for 8 years.

No, do I speak French. Regardless of the literal translation, it will convey the correct meaning.

Un pain au chocolait si vous plait. non parlez vous francais. That's about it.

Clubs all around the World are implicitly Greedy and self interested. I don't hold it against them, it comes with the territory. It would be like hating Sharks or Snakes. An irrational and emotional response to something acting completely within its nature. But this behaviour does need to be...

8 is about bang on for us. And obviously on the mark for a NZ A side too. Hopefully that's a bit higher after the 6 Nations.

Essentially confirmed that your second stingers, (exception of Thrush, Cane, Slade and one or two others) are not there yet.

Losing Bennett and Murray hurt. Then all over the place for the remainder of the first half. Good defence mostly. Missed penalty from Laidlaw was frustrating. Lineout excellent, scrum not so much. Problem with the Props, the Hooker or the Locks? And can we fix it in time for 6N? With the...

The major problem here is that we matched them mistake for mistake. On a day where they made a shitload of them, we couldn't make the most of our opportunities. Somewhere between the Scotland of last week and the Scotland of old.

Slade converts under pressure, 8 points ahead. Cusiter and Brown on, all out attack. Ball spilled. 4 to go, Scrum, NZ feed absolute center.

There's the try to Thrush. That should be the game.
