Pretty certain playing 10 was what Giteau preferred

ACT Brumbies it is https://brumbies.rugby/news/act-southern-nsw-rugby-union-restores-clubs-original-name-the-act-brumbies-2022814

Don’t know if this means the Brumbies may officially be the ACT Brumbies again from tomorrow, or perhaps the Canberra Brumbies? Dear Brumbies Family, We trust you are all well, and we want to begin by thanking you again for your support in 2022. We are reaching out regarding a...

Some superb work by Google Translate on this article about Staniforth making the Top 14 team of the year "Great craftsman of Castrese domination in the phases of conquest, the Australian mule has multiplied on all lawns"...

And yet none of the Manly players seem to have an issue with the major sponsor that's on their jersey every week. I would have thought gambling would be frowned upon too?

I'm guessing those blokes basically know they're not in line for selection for Australia so will choose Tonga/Samoa for this RWC, safe in the knowledge it won't hurt their eligibility for Australia down the track

Think it was in a NRL game on the weekend where a player got crunched in a tackle and then proceed to puke out a litre or two of water

The only worry with that is he seems to get charged down a bit. His kicking action looks to be a bit slow or maybe he just has a lower trajectory on his kicks. Pretty certain he got charged down in the Australia A game against Samoa.

Plus the two defenders (Noah and maybe Kellaway?) clashed heads when they went in to the tackle which contributed to them falling off

I suspect Pollard may end being the better player but we’ll struggle to hang on to both of them, and Lonergan might be the one we end up keeping, being a local and with his brother in the team.

"Cooper, two years older than To'omua, played at fly half in the Queensland I side at the 2006 Australian schoolboy championships, but it was the latter who guided Queensland II to a rare national title."...

My memory might be playing tricks but wasn't To'omua in QLD school boys the same year as Quade Cooper, with To'omua in QLD A and Cooper in QLD B? And that decision may have been based more on the style the A side was playing rather than the respective merits of the players? So maybe part of the...

How'd the Tahs go the week after they got thrashed by the Crusaders back in 2002?

Sefo Kautai signed for another two seasons

Going to need all the locks and hookers we can get if we go to back to Larkham's game plan from last time he was coach

Probably won't be too cold on Friday, forecast is for a high of 19 and a low of 11. Might be a bit wet though

The only finals systems that seem to work fairly are a top four, five or eight. So if you want to cut down the number of finalists you'd probably have go down to five.

Some 2020 Tahs merch on sale if anyone is interested: https://www.jimkiddsports.com.au/collections/5-may-2022-oz-bargain-collection Heritage jersey looks to be the pick of the bunch but only seems to be in small sizes

Crowd announcement at the Brumbies v Hurricanes game was just over 8000

I hope the table finishes that way Reg, but doubt the Brumbies will win all of their remaining games. Suspect we'll lose to the Chiefs in NZ and at lose at least one of the home games. Even in their pomp I don't think the Brumbies have ever won more than about 5 or 6 games in a row
