It's not a cash grab. It's a great footballer having a crack at a childhood dream of playing in the NFL.

Good line up, We're fkn stacked. Few changes I'd make but I'm splitting hairs. Premiership soon.

Probably a chat for SPR 2025 but yeah, won't be much between the sides next year. Force definitely the little brother on paper of the Australian packs

Look good. Feel good. Play good.

As evidenced by topping wallabies Try Assist stats for 2025

Sadly their move hasn't resulted in much success at all - but I know that's beside the point. Couple of good players (realistically most non-QPR clubs' A-Grade side have a handful of premier grade quality players in both Subbies and Country comps) and some juniors aren't enough to bridge the...

Is it if they can't attract any decent players who would rather play at established clubs, with established systems who are competitive - and so they just get pumped every week. Can't see any expansion team ever being competitive without getting a significant leg up from the QRU in the form of...

cut the sleeves off and make a townsville wedding suit

Just remember that to him, this is not the point.

They really haven't - time is pretty obviously correlated with how much pressure is applied by the opposition, not the referee.

I disagree the 5 second law has changed much or made it more difficult for him - beyond stopping the relatively new trend of caterpillar rucks, it doesn't do much to game. The struggle mostly comes when the ruck is messy or under pressure from a counter, not when we have clean ball. 5 seconds...

I think any argument for expansion is trumped by a lot of the deep rooted systems in place around QPR that keep the clubs and competition more broadly very insular. QPR clubs are as big and successful, and attract/ retain players for a number of reasons. History, family connections, friendship...

Having come across him a on a few different occasions and in a few different different contexts - I can confidently say he would be up there with the most motivated/ dedicated within the group. His professionalism would certainly would be leading from the front at the reds, would imagine he...

Hopefully this our actual playing jersey style 2 sizes too big and 300gsm cotton, too.

Which as a side note - is probably one of the main points of the IPP even existing - despite the low conversion rate. Helps the NFL reach a new fan base or further engage with it, and creates a sense of novelty for fans of the team that pick up IPP players.

I think the concern around the unpredictability of being on a practice squad and how the salary isn't wouldn't apply to JP or any other IPP candidate - considering they need to come from other sports which you assume are well paid (unless maybe that sport is Athletics)

The next season is the 25/26 season. He'll have his IMG academy time then either be picked up or cut loose. I think he'll know by the end of next year at the latest whether there is a chance or not of making something over there - and even if he's held on a roster for that season then let go -...

Attraction to me is pretty obvious. If you make it - you become apart of the biggest sporting league in the world. Money, Fame, Prestige etc etc There are no published stats re: his vertical jump, 40m dash etc so the honest answer is - we don't know. People can't just rock up the IPP though -...

Nice little RWC carrot at home though

Can see a future where Jock Campbell isn't at the Reds, opening up the Fullback spot in the likely event he returns to rugby inside 2 years. Jock probably reaching that cross roads where he may find himself with a handy OS offer and a no road forward in Australian Rugby. Wright has the mortgage...
