    Aussie Player Exodus

    Aussie Passports are 4 years, as far as I'm aware, and I think Kiwis without natural citizenship might have to jump through a couple of extra hoops due to the freedom of travel between the countries.

    Commonwealth Games Sevens- Glasgow July 26/27

    Scotland go down to South Africa, setting up Medal Semis of Australia v Darkness and Samoa v Sefrika. Pretty Damn proud of the Scot boys,especially since most of them are converted 15s boys. Still have to question the selections of Roddy Grant and Sean Lamont, didn't offer much the Sevens...

    Commonwealth Games Sevens- Glasgow July 26/27

    Scotland left chasing again, repeat of the game against the Darkness. 21-7 to the Saffas at half time. Hopefully we don't leave the run so late in the second half.

    Skelton put our Openside in a headlock, at a maul,and they still won the bloody turnover! Carded for a high shot about 2 minutes later though, so I can't complain too much.

    Can't say I watched all the Samoan games, but I watched them play Scotland, Australia and NZ. Generally attempted to physically intimidate others, and when they didn't give a stuff, he got flustered and began to cross the line from Enforcer to Dirty Scumbag. Definitely a work in progress. 2 or...

    Commonwealth Games Sevens- Glasgow July 26/27

    TBF, McMahon, despite being short (relatively, 185cm+ is still tall), he has a really broad frame. I don't think he'd make any changes in the next couple of years, not with the Olympics around the corner, but with an abundance of Opensides, and a general desire for taller, lineout specialist...

    Waratahs v Brumbies, SFS Saturday 26 July

    That's unfair, Phipps was always a good tackler, the problem was the sheer number of them that he had to make at the Rebels. Between wingers and fly halves that just got beaten consistently and the bazillion little inside balls that broke a sliding defence, he had no hope.

    Commonwealth Games Sevens- Glasgow July 26/27

    Games take about a 3 hour break. Not for any REAL reason, just to sell 4 separate ticket allocations rather than 2. Australia have won their first 2 games, they've only got the England one to go. The "big 4" matches: Scotland v Canada, South Africa v Kenya, England v Australia and Samoa v...

    Commonwealth Games Sevens- Glasgow July 26/27

    Extremely Unlucky from Scotland, scored a couple of good tries, forced a pair of yellow cards, and arguably should have had a third. While its unlikely to come down to points difference, 17-14 is a much better result than the Canadians 39 point shellacking :p

    Commonwealth Games Sevens- Glasgow July 26/27

    England beat Sri Lanka 57 - 0. 17-0 to the Kiwis at Half time of the NZ/Scotland Match. Looks like a silly team out there for the Scots really. 1 Sevens specialist in the starting side, the rest converted 15s, albiet Jones and Wight are moving into full time Sevens roles. Need to improve...

    Final score 43 - 5, 7 tries to 1, fabulous kick offs, Jeladouv ended up having 4 meat pies.

    Commonwealth Games Sevens- Glasgow July 26/27

    24-0 now, Jeladouv has a hat trick. Slicing through the Ugandan defence, albeit not unexpectedly. Half time. England v Sri Lanka to follow, then New Zealand v Scots.

    Reds 2014

    JOC (James O'Connor) played 2 or 3 good games at 12 for the Rebs, primarily with Cipriani at 10, and Beale at Fullback. The rest of the time, he stunk. nuff said. More than capable of covering 10/12 for a half, maybe 60 minutes, but to plan for him to be there is to plan for doom.

    Melbourne Rising 2014

    Nobody lets me be blindly optimistic... :( My reasoning was: He'll maybe be fit for the last 2-3 games. He's currently in Sydney anyway, both for rehabilitation and because he's continuing his studies, at Sydney Uni nonetheless. Assuming the Stars don't completely fill their Soup quota from...
