Delusional if they think Sydney is the spiritual home of Wallabies. Surely Suncorp.

isnt that the standard trajectory for these viruses? I've read the less deadly a mutation the easier it propagates.

What's the go with the new variant, anyway? We know anything about it yet?

I'm not going back into lockdown.

It honestly wouldn't very surprising at all if they beat the Tahs and Rebels.

I was pretty keen to see how JOC (James O'Connor) would go there.

Laurie Fischer holding them all together

I really thought TK played pretty well for them. His defensive efforts were rock solid and he was never given any ball in attack (none of them were). But eh - he's gone now so whatevs.

They are creating a defense to a claim of negligence by taking steps 'a reasonable person' would take to address the obvious risks. Whether they actually are the best steps for the game is irrelevant as long as...

Probably one for Cyclo - but i thought CTE is caused by the brain bouncing against your skull due to the sudden change in velocity, repeatedly. The cushioning provided by the headgear is pretty negligible. To do anything it'd have to provide sufficient cushioning to notably reduce the rate of...
