No. The crowd was actually okay given recent standards. Was better than the Sunwolves, Bulls and Stormers games. I would of thought 9k. Not that it’s anything to crow home about.

Might be sacrilege but he’s more Richie McCaw with his ability to carry and nifty footwork into contact, with the obvious head over the ball and defensive abilities. Not that I’m saying he will be the next, that’d be unfair on the fella

World class to me has always been that you play at a high level consistently at the highest level. There is more than 2 world class locks going around Retalick, Whitelock, Itoje, Etzebeth, Ryan Soccer is a great game to identify the need for simply more than a starting 11 worth of players. Or...

The 9 has been alright. The charge down was no.2 fault. If you watch it again, he goes in to play the 2nd man in a Shield for the 9. Then he switches off and the Italian player blows between the players. He’s good around the park tho and hits a fair few rucks. Support play obviously top notch as...

The defense from everyone is heavy. Don’t think I have seen an Aus team dominate so many collisions.

The entire back row just looks class. Harrison and Lucas with some nice moments with limited opportunities.

The hooker is looking to be the first to get hooked.

It’s on Fox 503 as well

I’m struggling to think of who realistically we could bring in. Ruru I don’t think is the answer, he’s a solid back up. Goddard has talent, but it’d be nice if he moved to the bench spot. Tuttle? Sorovi? Are they any better than Goddard, who knows? Lucas has just signed on again with the...

It’s surely get who ever needs to be rested done with this week, then have everyone at their best for the crunch game against the Chiefs to finish the season.

The Cottrell one was a mystery, in my eyes clearly a yellow. It was a poorly timed attempt at the high ball and put the opposite player in a dangerous position. The Rona one was clear and deliberate. There was never any intention to attempt to wrap, infact the shoulder charge was the only way...

We also need to remember it’s not a simple win 2 make it through for x, y, z. All the teams in competition for spots are playing each other in most games. There is still a mathematical chance (and a very slim one) the Rebels could make it without collecting a point. But that’d require an extreme...

This is where the debate is becoming incredibly toxic for the game across the country these days. RA don’t look after Rugby in NSW, the model doesn’t allow for it. If any team hasn’t gone ahead, it would be NSWRU causing the issue, that’s if they are even doing that. Rugby in this country is not...

It won’t solve next seasons issue as White will still be at Exeter, plus they will almost guaranteed make the finals again, so wouldn’t turn up until the last week or two in the season. Ruru is a solid back up, but far from taking the team to the next level. We’d have to go to the market for a...

Coming into the last week i believe it will be 8 teams vying for 4 remaining spots. It also happens that those 8 teams play each other. Highlanders v Waratahs Rebels v Chiefs Stormers v Sharks Bulls v Lions Lions are the only team that can qualify with results going their way this weekend...

Georgina Robinson reporting on offsiders that Genia has signed to go to Japan for next 3 seasons.

I thought it worked fine. Hegarty is at his best at 15.

There is no flexi deals next year as Top League is going to be played the same time as Super Rugby. Will probably stay this way going forward as well

Generally I think it’s from the person at the back not releasing it. McDermott was demanding the one earlier and never given

Issue with the smith brothers ever playing for Australia is that they are a liability with the ball in hand
