The quality of the teams proposed are well below that of NRC level..........

How is he doing that? So far this competition hardly looks like threatening Super Rugby.......... And for that reason I think Rugby Au will support it.

Well, they didn't shift them....... those players signed with the Rebels. And obviously if the ARU allow Wallaby eligible players to play with Twiggy ball, then yes, under World Rugby they have to be made available to the Wallabies during the test window.

Why would they do that when they've already ruled that all players during a test window must be made available? Also, the Super Rugby teams already have taken first dibs........... I don't see the Twiggy comp being able to compete with Super Rugby as the teams proposed so far could barely...

My bad, for some reason I thought he was an ACT junior.........

3. Kuridrani 2. TPN 1. Speight

Ten from the ACT: Sione Lloyd Makin Abel Swain Cusack Oakman-Hunt x 2 Lonergan Johnston

Oh indeed........ for an 18 year old to be so physically dominant, he's got a bright future.

Look, I'm sure they'll be good enough to pick up an EPS contract somewhere, or maybe even get a gig for Sri Lanka or Laos in the IPRC next year...........

He was the best Aus halfback in Super Rugby this year......... very unlucky not to be on the bench behind Genia. Those Force halfbacks aren't too bad either......... hopefully they can pick up a Super Rugby contract for next year.

FYI....... it was Sio. ;)

That was an amazing try...... great work from Speight, Beale and then Kerevi.

Tries to Kerevi, Speight, TPN and Kuridrani (x2) in that order....... Hodge has converted them all. Japan 3 - Aus 35 Edit: too slow...........

If that pass from Sio had come off it would have been a thing of beauty........

Rugby Au looking to start up their own Melbourne Storm, try and buy themselves success down here and get Melbourne folk into it.......... I'm not a fan of the Force fan trolling, but it's going to be easy to dislike this team.

Why would they want to play Twiggy comp over Super Rugby? So far the Twiggy comp is shaping up to be of a quality below Australian club rugby featuring teams from countries barely ranked inside the World Rugby top 40......

I don't believe I am, having also addressed general kicking among other things............ But to tragic's specific point about goal kicking - it really wasn't a deciding factor in the end as even if Foley had have converted all of his goals it wouldn't have mattered as England still scored...

Actually, in the first test it would've made it a 5 point ball game........ he missed 3 conversions and we lost by 11 points. And your stats were wrong - Farrell kicked 9/10 (3/3 conv and 6/7 pen), soooooooooooooo..........

The missed conversions wouldn't have made much of a difference....... it wouldn't have won us the first test, and it had no bearing on the second. Kicking from hand was certainly an issue........ but we also struggled with our lineout in the first and third tests. And there were certainly more...

Lions series = Japan test? Also, JOC (James O'Connor) was Deans' first choice........ Hodge is filling in for injuries.
