There are? I think more pertinently, and what kiap is saying, is that relinquising the Force won't have any financial benefit to the remaining 4 franchises. They're not really vying for the same corporrate dollar as such. I'm still flabbergasted by the whole Firepower debacle. How could so...

How many of those actively play rugby?

Not disgreeing that Queensland has a decent junior program, but how many of those 15 000 merely high-fived Ben Daley and the Fainga'a twins once at a school visit?

I know Aussie Rules players are given footballs to just carry around, no punishment for dropping it or any such. The main idea is if sitting idly, or going for a walk, to keep the ball in hand, bounce it, and get a good feel for the ball - geometry, grip, bounce etc. Going along the theme...

Cracking article, Barbarian. Pretty much agree with the thrust of it.

Cottaging is an industry now?

I personallt would love to see Laurie Fisher coach our mob. He is the kind of guy who puts footy heads on young shoulders, which is what this team needs. Much as I love Quade, I think McIntyre has potential to turn into a good 10. Would like to see him play outside a technically good 9...

Luckily nobody on this forum ;)

Anyone who takes a passing interest in Queensland rugby would know the story of Graham's re-appointment. It's fair to say that the QRU will come out of this with egg on their faces. Sadly they do not have shareholders to face at the AGM.

It's been an hour, why haven't GAGR's servers gone into meltdown yet?

Love Quade's beautiful flat passing and the fact he puts defenders in two minds, especially in sevens. He seems to miss a little with regards to his support play - too shallow and wide - and obviously his pushed passes.

Nah, I think it will take someone with experience to turn this thing around. Establish a solid culture, give confidence to blokes like Frisby, McIntyre, and Greene. For the sake of Stiles's career and mental health, he should either go elsewhere, or work under another experienced HC before he...

Never thought I'd say this, but I'd like to see Stiles develop more overseas. He's done well with good cattle at Brisbane, the Reds have one of the better set pieces in what is otherwise a sinking ship. Wouldn't want to throw him at the current Reds, that requires an experienced coach.

As many former test players have demonstrated, a test career does not equate to quality commentary. And I particularly dislike Martin's commentary. But respect where it's due, Martin has played more tests, tour matches and matches for his state than 99.94% of this forum's members.

We all seem to be saying this: Graham doesn't seem like a bad dude. He obviously gives a shit, he looks gutted. This press conference is really sad to watch.

Same as last week. It feels like watching Berrick Barnes all over again.

It wasn't so long ago that the Reds were a toughened, canny unit that could travel just about anywhere and get the win. I distinctly remember the Kiwi commentators speaking in such respectful tones of our Reds. The answer seems fairly obvious, but I still find myself asking, 'how did it come...

Thus why I stand corrected.

Ah it was Prior who knocked over the conversion. I stand corrected!

Fuck me sideways. The Reds were even worse than last week. And just to rub chilli on the stick, most of the Force's points were scored by former Reds.
