    Evaluating the result can be objective, evaluating the decision remains subjective surely?

    It's not really a skills issue though is it? Phipps has the ability to get the ball to a receiver quicker than anyone else in the country because of his own pace to the breakdown and his hand speed at the base. The inevitable trade-off is that his passes are less accurate than some other...

    Thunk I saw they had to change it to avoid a clash with the hosts

    Reds 2017

    Rugby stats - at least the publicly available ones, are so far behind other sports it's almost unbelievable.

    Australian Rugby Development Centre

    The state government owns the Ballymore grounds too - it can only be used for Sport and recreation under the deed of grant to the QRU, which raises lots of questions around what any development money can be put towards

    You don't think Holmes' NRC opponents develop more packing down agaisnt a test standard font rower? Playing agaisnt top level guys is a feature of the NRC, not a bug

    Yep. being the most skillful player in World Rugby won't mean anything if you haven't developed the strength, fitness and discipline to play professional rugby. Exposing more guys to the standards required in the pros must be helping to prepare more of them for the higher levels.

    Rugby TV Ratings 2016

    Shute shield - 36k Hurricanes v Sharks - 69k Brumbies v Highlanders - 83k The Wookie may be able to correct me, but I think that's probably the lowest rating Aussie final we've ever had

    Retospectively, that (very fortunate) one point win over Scotland is a very interesting point in recent Australian Rugby history isn't it.... The ref makes a different call, or a place kick is pushed slightly wide and Cheika's and many other's reputation are very different today.

    Jarryd Hayne signs with Fiji Sevens

    If they can put together a package which includes time in Japan, some third party deals and a waratahs contract that Hayne is interested in signing, then they'd be crazy not too.

    They should. But the players want to be released to go get paid more OS don't they?

    Only others I could guess, at a big stretch, would be Hunt, Speight, maybe McMahon, Skelton, Carter. Slim pickings at this end though

    I wonder if the ARU top-up is only offered when the Super Rugby contract is being negotiated. Limits the potential recipients for this year even more....
