White was just about the best no.9 in the premiership for a 2yr period. He came back and showed some great touches on extremely limited prep. He’s the clear option, Tate is the clear usurper and will be given every chance to blend into the team and dominate the position for the next 10yrs...

If the glove don’t fit, you can’t acquit

Surely there comes a time where you just have to put your hand up and say they f&@!ed up. Of course they would invite them over, they are partners after all. It’s like inviting a partner to the Xmas drinks that you know has been looking at getting out of their t’s & c’s with your firm, because...

I’d be shocked if White isn’t the no.9 with McDermott on the bench.

Obviously a shame to see some people go that would be nice to keep, however one good thing is that apart from Kellaway the names on the list didn’t play a significant or any role in the most recent SRAU campaign.

1 or 2 on that list I think we might see in 2022 for the trans-Tasman comp

Article they released says other comings and goings could be confirmed in coming weeks

Interesting that Philip not on the list, so indicating he will return post 1yr contract with Pau as has been discussed in the past. Disappointed about Tupou the most.

Rebels have confirmed who’s leaving for next year - English, Ha’angana, Tupou, Deegan, Stolberg, Louwrens, Rangi, Kellaway (All Japan) - Killingworth (Shute Shield) I believe one or two of them might be targets to return after 2021

What comp were you watching? Apart from Tupou, To'omua would be pretty close to next in line for best player in the competition, some weeks he was a 1 man backline for a misfiring Rebels team from 9-15. What games do people watch on a Friday and Saturday night???? Surely the different ones to I...

Yep I always thought Rodda could be the most likely as there is a high chance he will be back in Australia play Super Rugby in the next 12-18months.

Yep his role in that spot opens so many options for a coach. Him and JOC (James O'Connor) are prob the only 2 guys that would allow a coach 6/2 split

I don’t think he should be anywhere near the 13 jersey but his finishing record is very underrated. If he plays another 4-5yrs of Super Rugby he could come into contention as Super Rugby highest ever try scorer. Has a solid finishing record for the Wallabies as well. As it stands I think he deserves to be no.4 in...

Tyson has signed for the Knights for a bucket load of cash.

Isaac Kailea at starting LH for UQ this week. Another one of the academy guys that’s head interstate for some rugby.

Both Philip and LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) will be involved in the 23 for the NZ tests. They will be basically both fighting it out to join the overseas lock option for the RC. If Philip played for the Reds or Tahs people would be calling him the best lock in the country, which isn’t the strongest competition currently.

I like the signing of Stander, Longbottom is obviously a local and Kurindrani is quality. But they need to make sure they don’t become a dads army with guys past it or never going to be anything more than solid. If you’re going to get a Kearney he needs to be playing with guys in the learning...

Are we getting rid of them or is the system not conducive of offering the opportunities a 30yr old would want? We only play 14/15 top end games a year. So clubs have the choice of keeping older players and then when they move on the young guys that come into your system to replace them are...

Hooper been named as captain is the most obvious decision this year for the Wallabies. The half back spot is out of White and McDermott with White been the favorite. Powell won’t come into calculations unless there is injuries.

Lol NZ rugby is quickly becoming the Aus cricket of the rugby world. Historically the best team and a skill level generally the envy of the rest of the world. But an arrogance that their shit don’t stink is quickly sweeping through the ranks. Most kiwis hate Aus cricket but when they find out...
