    Rugby TV Ratings 2016

    Would think we'll get 400k on FTA alone and half that again on fox. Even that disaster of a game against Argentina on the Gold Coast did around 350k combined

    Wallabies v England, Sat 11th June, 8.00pm, Suncorp Brisbane

    Surely Lilo will be on the bench straight from the hospital if required.

    Wallabies v England, Sat 11th June, 8.00pm, Suncorp Brisbane

    Think he's pretty right too, at least with the main thrust if not the details. You see it with the cricketers as well. Skywriting etc. Newspapers drum up these controversies to sell the papers and we supporters happily pile on too. It's an Australian audience after all I don't necessarily...

    Wallabies v England, Sat 11th June, 8.00pm, Suncorp Brisbane

    Anyone else see the Eddie Jones profile in the SmH magazine? Few interesting points from him about different countries approach to conflict - England at the Japanese end of the scale doing it behind closed doors v Australians who do it all out in the open. Same for the outward respect for...

    Western Force 2017

    for most though, especially the elite guys who would make a big difference, playing just 2 Wallaby games would translate into an extra 10%. So if you reduce your chance of playing in gold by moving west, then at some point it's not worth it.

    Western Force 2017

    Having a minimum number of ARU topups per side (and therefore a maximum) or a hard ARU inclusive salary cap could also force Wallabies to be more equally distributed. RUPA wouldn't let it happen though I'd imagine It

    Rugby TV Ratings 2016

    You have to be really careful comparing across years. The numbers are heavily dependent on which games actually get publicly reported and it's often the bad ones that don't show up. The wookie does fantastic work collating it all, but he can only work with what's made available.

    Wales tour of New Zealand 2016

    This Wales team beating NZ in NZ would have to be close to the greatest upset of all time. There's more ranking points between them than between Japan and SA and it's at home.

    Rugby TV Ratings 2016

    For whatever reason the usual source didn't publish super Rugby ratings this weekend. Shute Shield on 7two - 28k ------------ Random paytv ratings for comparison. NBA finals Warriors v Thunder - 89k (which was a stupendous game) Monaco GP on foxsports - 190k On 10/one - 415k

    Refereeing decisions

    Haven't seen the specific incident but this is covered by a couple of laws (taken from the law clarification in September 2015) Law 22.4 (e) Tackled near the goal-line. If a player is tackled near to the opponents’ goal line so that this player may immediately reach out and ground the ball on...

    The Wallabies Thread

    Rather than 1 every game it's probably most games - no difference and then in one game - lose 4 extra. Makes a big difference if you're, say, in a semi final......
