I agree, was saying to the Mrs how well the guys were going, getting the 10 metres upfield and keep within the tram tracks in case we give away a penalty just the the referee obliged.

Don't take the bait BH

I'm pleased for them also I take it that NZR & RA are still working out if we have 2 comps (6 in each), a comp with 2 conferences of 6, or the full 12 team comp. If it's the 1st (which I hope it is) then it's up to RA to announce the Drua in our comp when they come to an agreement. Either...

Yeah I saw this earlier - I was a bit surprised Israel is included while Germany & Romania are out.

That's a big bet Sully, who where you backing?

How about we pick him for the November tests when we’re looking at picking more European based players.

I think that is the most popular on here Dan and probably the best solution

I makes the competition that is on for the majority of the year open and fair (some Aussie players may go to NZ). If it's even and attracts better support in Australia then more kids will be wanting to play. For the past 20 years to see it you have needed pay TV now it's on free TV but the...

Looks like we won't know before the end of the month what the plans are for next year. At least RA are standing up for what's best for the Australian rugby public...

And Cessy Smith for the Reds, also in the Wallaroos training squad.

Agreed, thank fuck 2021 is done, looking forward to next year, can’t go any worse

I don't know but assume Suntory will now be major sponsor and owner of the Tokyo Sungoliath, Yamaha the same with the new Shizuoka Jubilo etc. I have a feeling that to play for the company teams now you have to be an employee of the company so the players will now become professional players...

they change their names and continue on much like the soccer teams did when the J-League started.

Pretty sure there has been a Brumbies Provincial team for the past few years that has played against the likes of the Australian Police, NSW Country & maybe the Australian Army teams? This year I think they are playing Brumbies Metro and from that a team will be selected to play in the...

Depends... If you can take 2-3 defenders out and recycle quickly the team will have an overlap

Surely it's not that hard... Run a 6 team Super AU where the top 2 qualify for SuperRugby, bottom 4 in "insert sponsor here Cup" for the following season. Run a 6 team Super Ao where the top 4 qualify for SuperRugby, bottom 2 in "insert sponsor here Cup" for the following season. Japanese...

I think that was a 'thanks for stay with us tour'

Everything south-west of Wollongong is Brumbies territory. I believe the Central West were close to swapping over at the start of this season

The difference being that Super AU is still in the top 5 leagues in the world where as the A-League would struggle to be in the top 50. Edit: Also people are invested in clubs in other leagues, very few rugby fans care about the NZ teams, let alone the Top 14, Premiership or Pro whatever
