    Rugby League players who could have/could make the switch

    I don't know anybody in my age range (the 20-35 range) that is anything like this. Scrap that. I know a couple. Both 20 years old though. Unwmployed with too much access to their parents wallets.

    That's a seriously good looking backline.

    Aussie Player Exodus

    Didn't realise Helu was an Aussie. You are bang on with these. There's also the Batger brothers playing for Santa Monica (Pacific Rugby Premiership)

    Rugby 7s general chat

    Could look to run games during the twilight period of the day.

    Rugby 7s general chat

    It's also a great example why the ARU and State Unions need to look to setting up a distinct Sevens season that targets mass participation.

    NRC onwards and upwards

    Also helps that Western Sydney is the largest Soccer region in the country.

    Should also add the owner of PRO Rugby is also in talks with the SARU to buy the Southern Kings. Part of it is for access to the EP academy system evidently.

    NRC onwards and upwards

    Harlequins have just signed on with the commercial wing of USA Rugby, Rugby International Media. https://www.usarugby.org/2016/11/harlequins-invests-in-the-future-of-american-rugby/ Inevitably RIM is interested as a means of adding valuable content. I think the ARU would be well served in...

    Harlequins have just signed on as a minority shareholder of USA Rugby's commercial wing Rugby International Media. https://www.usarugby.org/2016/11/harlequins-invests-in-the-future-of-american-rugby/ Personally I think TRC would be a good option for the NRC in the short term as a means of...

    The Awful Truth About The ARU's Financial Position

    You don't count the NRC or doubling of our TV deal?

    Tier 3.5 - An Alternative NRC

    Wasn't that what the TempletonvCup was all about prior to Super Rugby coming into being? Don't think it would work at Super Rugby level as we have two teams that would essentially be replicas. However, I do like it as a post-season NRC structure. With the NRC Baa Baas concept scrapped for this season and...

    Another option if Fiji prove successful could be a combined Tonga/Samoa squad based somewhere in Sydney.

    No, but they could just elect not to select players who compete in the rival league in representative teams like the USA Selects or Eagles. However, before they could ever dream of competing they need to essentially build the necessary infrastructure. Only one of the clubs the French have...

    Completely separate league. Evidently Boudjellal anted to get in on PRO but was knocked back and is now trying to rally other club Presidents to invest in a rival league based around existing performance clubs. Racing already has an agreement the Austin Huns (this public knowledge)while Brive...

    Unless they can source a generous multi-millionaire/billionaire to cover the bill then Pro12 isn't likely any time soon. RC certainly cannot afford it.
