Amazingly stupid of them. They have known for months that this was coming. Here goes more millions that could have been saved. Judges don't like unprepared lawyers IMO.

Guys I was surprised to see that Stan is not broadcasting those games. Is there anywhere to watch them? Also, add any comments regarding games especially if you have watched any of them.

We have a talent for dragging down any coaching talent we produce.

I think the problem is the requirements of Super Rugby, we play mostly against NZ teams and have not been competitive across the board ever! Our skills, fitness and talent is below what they produce but we have great skills in our faster players. The focus on a competitive pack has been improving but...

We are in a similar situation with our coaches and our players. Both need to step up but the question is can they?

I would like Kiss to be a long term Wallaby coach but I am wondering if Cheika could do a smash and grab at RWC.

Not a fan of Cheika but could take us through to RWC - who else would be in the Aus mix?

Also the mental issues playing sport fixes.

This makes a sensible inclusion and similar for Perth, Melbourne and unlikely Adelaide. The travel to Perth is an issue but if the cities support it they may pay fares and accommodation for away matches.

Are the clubs getting more votes or are you suggesting that the clubs will fill the void? The Shute Sheild clubs aren't exactly flooded with players or money. Don't know about the rest of the country. I suspect that RA view of grassroots are the major clubs in each state as they attract most...

Thanks that's the information I wanted to understand why it wouldn't work.

i Like the idea KOB but I am wondering if this would overlap the club's games where these young players would normally be competing. Isn't it another effort at a 3rd tier of rugby but for youngsters and would it get support or money? It would be better if the Universities built such a...

Good call on a farewell tour. I spent most of my time with old friends, some I hadn't seen in 53 years and didn't regret it, didn't even go to London.

No internationals Dan?

I know but he and Bob Dwyer are about it.. Never met Whiteley he was my friends next door neighbour when they were kids. Bugger it, now I just have to repeat ad infinitum...

Agree with this but add that I go to Bali 2-3 times a year as I'm a scuba diver and UW photographer can't take cold water anymore. Just in case you think I am chasing young girls or boys!!!!!

I think you will have better weather than I had. I felt the same and all my friends were saying 'don't be a mean bastard and take bus.class" I reluctantly stumped up but didn't regret it, at 77 and 6' 4" I slept stretched out in those beds. I also split the trip in Japan for 5 days on the way...

Agree with this Dru but I was on the other end. An old Aussie mate of mine went to live there as a teenager to paint with Brett Whitely, Whitely became famous and my mate ended up in Marketing and loved the UK as did his NZ wife. He came back due to illness in the family and then went back to...

Ist time in 28 years and I won't be going back. I called it the Farewell Tour. Great time in Japan and recommend to visit there if you haven't.

I took Google's advice to get out of Wales to go to Chester, I ended up on roads where the growth was touching both sides of a small rental car. Had to back up 150m to let a land rover pass me. Lovely views and wildlife but the thought of losing my $3000 deposit had me concerned. All of my old...
