Meehan just so sharp, even if Burgess leaves after next season, Rebs will have two good balfbacks.

Try to force it, and so much rubbish happens. Just let the ball flow and we look good.

Really scrappy from the Rising so far. Can't finish off any moves and defense is poor. Frustrating to watch. Can't take away from the fact that the Rams have been good though. Holloway and Volavola Rams best as usual.

The club players all started training together in about June as well. A few extra weeks on the Sydney and Brisbane boys.

I am honoured to accept the least important position on your list. I vow, that no matter how fucked up the Tasmanian Rugby Union is, I'll only fuck it up a little more.

Fuck it. Just play the Rising for all Test matches till the end of the world cup.

You know who'll be really happy? England. Wales. Fiji.

Woo! Randwick and Sydney Uni rejoice!

Telusa misses with a hand injury, Sione, Fereti, Burgess and Imo out of the 23, Placid, McMahon, Toby, Meehan and Naufahu in. 1. Toby Smith (Melbourne Uni/Rebels) 2. Pat Leafa (Box Hill/Rebels) (Vice Captain) 3. Paul Alo-Emile (Power House/ Rebels) 4. Sam Jeffries (Melbourne Uni/Rebels) 5...

Wouldn't mind seeing a couple of players get a bit of gametime especially in case of injuries (Specifically Gus and Naufahu) but Hedger and the gang will probably be reluctant to tinker too much with a winning formula.

Ill happily admit that I'm biased, but apart from the Saffa tour, I felt the Rebels won every scrum battle except for the Force in Perth and the Reds in Melbourne, although if someone can back up a different assertion, I'm happy to modify mine.

I always thought that the purpose of the cap was to prevent cauliflower ears at scrum time.

Remember this one? In the interest of Australian Rugby, MG could have just kicked the ball out, and given the Reds a bonus point. But he slotted it over, and the Reds could have lost top spot. Don't see why it would be any different, especially given that at best, 2 or 3 Scots and Welsh...

Long way out, but the Rebels have named a Preliminary 30 man squad for training in the lead up to the Southern States U20s. Includes the 3 Schoolboys from the NZ tour: Ah-mu Tuimalealiifano - Northern Alex Fowles - Moorabbin Andrew Barber- Moorabbin Antonie Van Zyl- Harlequins Bill Valetini -...

True, loss of the GAA hurt them pretty bad.

Leave Kepu and Slipper at home this tour. They look exhausted. Take 3 of Sio, Robbo, Smith and Cowan, as well as Alexander, Weeks and PAE. Give them all roughly the same game time. With Slipper and Kepu both able to switch sides, the best on either side plus the next best overall are established...

NH rugby is down the Shitter though, with Setanta seemingly not renewing contracts. Still get the Soup, most Tests, ITM, Bledisloe, Currie Cup, Top 14 and NRC though.

Any increase in smackaroonis should be funneled back into paying the existing players, or pumped into promotion and advertising.

Long term the cap on Super players may be lifted, and the team they've played with historically, that's put work into their development may be favoured. With pretty much a full team worth of ex Sydney Uni boys running around Super Rugby, links to more players, and the fact that it seems to be...
