    SVNS Series 2023/24

    The girls look like they brought it home in the final last night. Awesome stuff and a good omen heading into the Olympics.

    Fair enough Dan. I lived overseas for a number of years, but I always preferred Australia and knew at some point we'd be coming home.

    Wallabies 2024

    Donaldson’s kicking stats low, really? The games I’ve attended at home this season my recollection is that he’s been immaculate off the tee.

    Chiefs v Reds 7/6 QF

    I think if the Reds play their best footy they're a massive chance here.

    Wallabies 2024

    Given the constrained time for the new coach to get a game plan in order and practice it on the training paddock, I could see Schmidt going with a very direct style and picking a side accordingly. A couple of first up wins is important for the Wallabies this year. To me this means prioritising...

    Western Force 2024

    Yep and that would explain why Wells took that kick on full time. Definitely changes needed to the list.

    Round 15 of 15: Force v Brumbies Sat 1st 7.35PM (AEST) @ HBF Park

    Pretty ordinary game to be honest and rather like the Tahs game last night was a microcosm of their season tonight was ours. We were inaccurate in the first half especially and got punished. We had plenty of ball in the end but didn't have the sharpness or attacking shape to do much with it. The...

    Round 15 of 15: Force v Brumbies Sat 1st 7.35PM (AEST) @ HBF Park

    Wright’s in rare form right now

    Round 15 of 15: Force v Brumbies Sat 1st 7.35PM (AEST) @ HBF Park

    Hopefully both sides decide to chuck the pill around a bit tonight, given that there’s nothing riding on the game.

    Wallabies v Wales, 6 July

    I said last week that I would pick him and I still think he'll be in calculations.

    Waratahs v Reds - Friday 31/5

    Good game last night I thought. At one point the Reds looked like they were going to run away with it. Their attacking shape this year really has been great to watch. Lots of straight running, looping around the second receiver and punching down the edges. A couple of those tries were stellar...

    Wallabies 2024

    I think Donno has been great for us this year. His second involvements in set moves have elevated our attack. There's a bit of the old Mark Ella philosophy of "if I touch the ball twice we score, if I touch it three times I score" about it and I like it.

    Celebrating the Rebels

    I went to a Rebels game last year at AMI when they played the Reds. Terrific game of footy it was too. I was there with a mate who is a die hard Aussie Rules guy (we had watched our beloved Carlton beat Geelong a couple of night previous) and he really enjoyed it. Another highlight for me has...

    Melbourne Rebels 2024

    Gee whiz you're not wrong. He looks about 20 years older than this time last year!

    Melbourne Rebels 2024

    All fair points, but as someone who has been through this it's also a feeling that you're being asked to support a team that no longer represents you. It took until the Force were reinstated for me to properly get back on board with the Wallabies. I wanted Australia to win of course, but there...

    Round 15 of 15: Force v Brumbies Sat 1st 7.35PM (AEST) @ HBF Park

    There's an old saying: don't flirt with your form, especially heading into the finals.

    Melbourne Rebels 2024

    Damn I feel for our Rebels brothers and sisters and as a Force member I know how you're feeling right now. It sucks and the long term health of the game in this country is not helped by having fewer teams IMHO.

    Under-20 Competitions including Oceania & World U20s

    That's not a bad draw for us and I think our squad is more than decent. Go boys!

    Australian Rugby / RA

    Perhaps this is an argument to allow open slather selection from overseas-based players. We're a bit half way at the moment with the Giteau rule. Maybe we should either stop all overseas selections and punt on building our own thing or go the opposite and do like the Saffers have done, but keep...

    Round 14 : Reds v Force 24 May (Suncorp)

    I was out for dinner when this game was on last night. I came home and looked at the score - yikes! Were the Reds at least good to watch?
