Yeah, probably a good idea. How about we all post our sides after changes close instead?

That's an awful list of injury for the Tahs. Not the worst, though - Reds mid-2000s actually have had worse runs of injuries (they've been able to cobble together an actual team with a couple reserves of injured players) - but the sad problem for the Tahs is that it has been in the back half of...

Without doubt the Reds will apply for dispensation for Lance to play due to their injury problems.

Vickerman loked a little crocked at the end and was stuggling for the last couple. Personally, I thought Vicerkman was the 4th or so best lock on the park, some people are getting ahead of themselves.

I am so used to qwerty's snide remarks about non-Tah teams and players that I read that as qwerty saying that Gill is a top level cheat. Maybe I am just too cynical...

Hey, aren't you playing the Chiefs right now?!?!?! Not exactly appropriate here, this is a forum for rugby...

I took Masaga over David Smith. Hoping for the Reds' sake that it was a shit call.

Didn't sub any inside backs as I used my transfers elsewhere; in hindsight this may've been a mistake. Benn Robinson, Strauss Moore Bekker, Wykes Thomson, Vito, Messam Pretorius Gits, Beale (c), Cruden Lambie, Fruean, Masaga I reckon Masaga will give it to the Reds out wide, they've had a few...

How many backs with surnames starting with "R" did you want at one franchise, though? Randle and Reihana were the tip of the iceberg; can't blame them for leaving! Seriously, it is a good question to ask: how much did Ralph benefit from being on the end of the 'Saders backline? I will say I...

I'd be amazed if the Reds hold onto all of their young talent in the backs. Tapuai, Harris, Chambers, Fainga'a, plus Lucas and even Lance look lively, and they are all fighting with Hynes for 3 positions (12, 13, 15). Tapuai is who I think I would target from that lot for the Force. edit: Of...

With Palu and Mowen injured, the Tahs are short of options at 8 and 6 - which is why Dennis is at 8 and Mumm at 6, with Perrett on the bench. I am not convinced on that back row for the Tahs, personally, it looks a lot weaker with Mumm at 6 rather than lock. But with the injuries the Tahs...

I reckon Saffy is the long term 7 for the Rebels, as he gets more experience his scavenging will improve. Lipman will only be there another year or two. I'd be trying to hand onto Somerville for as long as possible and making him the cornerstone of my pack, along with Ged Robinson. I know...

How is there nil relationship? Surely a consistently strong U20s team will flow onto a strong national team (and not to mention into a strong club comp) in future years?

Kane Douglas dropped?

Sorry, just saw Moses has been updating this on the G&GR wiki: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/forum/showwiki/Super+Rugby+Attendance Great stuff from Moses!

Hah, the non-Contab Kiwi fans generally disliked Ralph, who they considered to be one of the slowest wingers in world rugby. He was faster than Gerrard, however. Didn't mind Ralph myself - he was more the Joe Roff type winger, with a great rugby brain than could just read the play and knew...

I've also heard that SFS is one of the more expensive grounds to rent. As someone mentioned previously, ANZ (unlike the SCG Trust) bends over backwards with financial incentives to get games at their ground - Souths relocating there is a prime example. I hate the commute to ANZ, but I also...

I think the sports doctors at The Stadium are pretty good - they handle a heap of pro sports teams as well as the Tahs. Ultimately the doctor will give a recommendation, with risks on playing (assuming they are not 100% ruled out), and the player and coaching staff will make the final decision...

Not that I know of, some match reports include crowd figures and some people stick them on Wikipedia in the Super rugby article for the year.

I think the point is more that 7s reps are not eligible for other countries.
