I would of loved the Wolfpack game to be open to the public on the following day at Gosch’s park. Would give the likes of Magnay, To’omua etc. the chance to play some more game time if they only manage less than 20mins in the main game

Good to see Jeffries back. If we win this we should make the finals, I’m less than confident on the win tho.

That is only partly true. The Broncos are only 30yrs old, Sydney Swans (Formerly Sth Melb) similar, Adelaide Crows are a made up entity, Fremantle, West Coast Eagles, Brisbane Lions (formerly Fitzroy) Melbourne Storm, Canberra Raiders, Nth Qld Cowboys, etc. then a whole bunch of merged entities...

Not sure if you’re insinuating that existing clubs become the semi-pro tier, but if you’re it’d just create another issue with the haves and have not. If for example Gordon, Eastwood, Southern Districts and Manly were propelled into a semi-professional national competition and joined by Prem...

Smith is a gun. Last year they invested heavily in him with a big contract, plus he plays well beyond his age. I’m a big fan of Quade but there isn’t that much difference in the quality of the two at present, I’d almost go as far as saying Smith would definitely be going to the WC if he was...

There will always be money is it provides value. That’s the catch. Even in this situation, if your product is providing a positive return they will pay what ever it takes, no matter the financial situation they are in to retain it. I’d love to see ch.10 (cbs) involved in some capacity, and do...

Harlequins have Marcus Smith, so unless he wants to go there and play second fiddle I can’t see it happening. He’d be a very expensive reserve fly half and money would be better spent elsewhere. I actually think Japan would be a better fit if it’s overseas.

The Foxtel situation is why I have always believed it’ll end up a trans-Tasman competition. Our own broadcasters are receiving a raw deal, yes they don’t put in as much to the coffers as the SA sector does but that’s because they receive product at times that can be commercialized. Infact it...

Neither has been prioritized over the other. What has happened is earlier in the season the super teams and Rugby Australia created an understanding that if a player plays over a certain amount of minutes up to the Oceania tournament, they would would remain with their super sides. If it was...

I’ll answer my own question. It’s pre bulls game on Friday. So will be around 5pm kick off. Side will consist mainly of Dewar Shield players and Rebels fringe players, so a nice reward for the locals

When and where is it played?

The Japanese season is looking at a restructure which means the season will be played during GRR. I think that might be the biggest reason why it’s dropped off the radar.

Pocock for Hooper and that’s the team I’d go with. Throw Hodge on the bench to cover a 6/2 split with Hooper the other backrow option and you’d have me won over

I think it’s going to look different with the selection panel in place. Some players that have had a mortgage on been in squads might be in trouble, although the ones I’m thinking of (Simmons, Phipps, Hanigan, etc.) have been playing well lately so worth a spot if they are selected. Cheika will...

There is plenty of support here in Melb, it’s just that rugby as a code is tarnished because a) they have stuffed up themselves and b) us fans know how to whinge and jump off a bandwagon like not many other sports can, plenty of ‘fans’ around the country are equally culpable for the tarnished...

Apparently at training today. Be nice if we can get Uelese and Sa’aga back and firing as well

And have played a game less than every team on the ladder ahead of them

Seconds is comfortably the worst ref in rugby. He’s been atrocious in numerous games this season

Anyone know anything about this $1m proposed upgrade to the unicorns facilities that the Rebs social media team posted about?
