I hope an opportunity arises in the very near future where the Wallabies win a scrum by pushing over the top of England and Hill thereby allowing our tight 5 to all make contact with him using their sprigs.

I would think there are some players who realise they are not in the sights of selectors to play in the World Cup or Lions tour but want a bigger payday without leaving the country.

What are the rules for foreign players? Is there a limit on how many years they can be contracted for? Would any time limits be backdated?

I don't think it would be too hard to use a timer that is visible at the ground that commences when the touchie raises their flag. The hard bit would be determining how long and what happens if the timer is not beaten.

So that's why he changed his headgear to blue!! I think this loss will be bigger for team than Hamish's skills would make people believe. I have long thought his organisational skills in the backline as well as his toughness against players bigger than him lifts the team to be better than they...

Does anyone else watch games on delay and skip through stoppages? I regularly do this, primarily due to putting kids to bed and spending time with the missus before watching a game. This week has been an interesting week, we have had U20's, Australia A and the Wallabies all play and I have had...

I was pretty impressed with the THP from the Force, he must have the second biggest legs after Tupou in Aussie rugby.

Is there a metric for swerve angle? Incredible try

QLD proved that pathways can exist by splitting the Super Rugby team essentially in 2 and filling the teams with other players. Some of these NRC players then moved through the the Reds proper. It was also a pathway for coaching too.

Loan players who are contracted to other franchises could play for teams who don't have the resources of their own or use limited overseas talent. Why is there a need for the clubs to agree? I am sure the Tahs can negotiate a contract with players to be a professional player without going...

I get frustrated at some Pod Casts when they talk about the Reds referring to JOC (James O'Connor) as "Jock" when Jock should be reserved for Jock Campbell.

I have always thought possible outcome should determine what the penalty is. Think of a tip tackle, the penalty should be based on whether a player could end up in a wheel chair, not on whether the tackler intended to paralyse him. What if a player only wants to rub the eyeball during an eye...

Bald forwards are more exciting, blood looks 10x better on a sweaty bald head. Oh how I miss David Croft.

Ineos is owned by an English Billionaire, Jim Ratcliffe who owns a chemical company, and a cycling team for fun. I find him interesting as he seems to have pet projects too, he missed old school landrovers so started his own company that now make 4wd's. (I am on waiting list!). He also owns a...

The best way to avoid the cluster fuck is to have each super franchise control 2 x teams under their name, think of how QLD ran their teams. This allows for a 10 team competitions, Run each week end with 2 x double headers and 1 x single header and then in the second round swap the home ground...

Maybe the amount of money they spend on scholarships for indigenous people to become engineers, employment and money they bring to the communities in need trump the fracking. I would imagine the benefits to remote and rural communities are welcomed by the locals but the inner city protestors...

I found it strange that the U20's did not have any sponsorship on their jerseys, does Cadbury only get senior sponsorship?

I must admit that my first thought when his hair was pulled was if he had a decent hair cut it wouldn't have happened. This is probably because I am a bald middle aged man so everyone has long hair in my opinion.

they referred to U20's as a pathway, my thought was the Grey has previously been on a pathway and failed.

Is it calendar weeks or games? Can he use club rugby to use up the suspension?
