You mean the clean out that was originally penalised?

https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queensland/football-queensland-releases-bowen-hills-stadium-vision-20240627-p5jpc9.html (Free one): https://www.andyfisher.ca/blog/stdc46ad196969cdvcetjon39.html I love Ballymore - but I'd 100% support a full enclosed 20,000 seat stadium like the one...

Right now, from my perspective we lack 2 key things: Money, and opportunity for players. We've just reduced the opportunity for players to play professional rugby in Australia by 20%. So the suggestion of an All Australian competition like you are suggesting here may fix that problem. For this...

I think this answers why this doesn't happen (below) Also I feel that we probably need a fully fledged SRP (Super Rugby Pacific) womens comp before a U20s. But this is and will continue to a be problem for us. Less teams in super rugby won't make us stronger, we'll just lose more players due to a lack of opportunity

What are the odds Hamish Stewart gets a cap?

I think this would surprise most people honestly.

No idea if he'll genuinely get a run but love seeing Liam Wright back in the fold. He's the Scott Fardy reincarnate we've desperately needed.

Brother, https://www.rugbyworldcup.com/news/831052/australia-name-squad-for-rugby-world-cup-2023

Would say that was a last minute inclusion when Rodda effectively ruled himself out. No Uru is a head scratcher though as he can cover that position

holy fuck that Eddie Jones interview on rugbypass is a tough watch. If Eddie was a cricketer Shane Warne would have been resigned to the Sheffield Shield with this level of spin

If you can't create an atmosphere without controversies or abusing people then I don't think the distance the field is from the crowd is the biggest problem you need to solve.

Generally its not players that need protecting.

it definitely wasn't a handshake - the touchie is clearly extending his arm to deflect the bloke away from himself and the referee while he's being approached with hostility. It's definitely on a minor end of the spectrum - but how many minor incidents do we have to have before something...

Sam Greene? - Regular 10/15 playing in Japan for last few. Wonder if he's playing for his 5 year residency though.

Another gone: Reds pathway product Hopo Leota (Reds u19s as a 17yo, Aus 18s prop) signed with Racing 92. Hasn't even finished high school yet. I'm optimistic about this though. With the reputation the top14 has for developing monster forwards, I hope he comes home one day bigger and better for...

Carter Gordon signed to NRL (Titans) in 2025.

Agree - having it in preseason like we do now while a great way to kick off the rugby year, kinda takes away from the prestige of the trophy

Anyone know what GP is referring to here?
