Where has he been playing lately?

Funny how they lift against the Chiefs, great finals rugby where the result was not certain right up to the last 7 or so minutes.

Has Chris played any Super Rugby this season?

Not sure Donaldson is the best guy for the Force, pretty underwhelming. I wonder how Stewart views this, since apparently playing 10 was one of the drivers for his move West. Playing with White might change things.

It would be good if they had the 5 Oz Super Rugby sides, minus their rep players, add in the Drua and maybe some genuine regional/country sides (e.g. a Qld team from NQ, NSW team from regional NSW) so that we have an ongoing 'local' comp to help develop those players further, bringing in some of the...

They certainly seem to lift when they are over there. Some very good individual performances, I can imagine prospective coaches looking at Wilson and McReight and thinking about what they could do with them. Real shame for Liam Wright with the injury though, he has been in such good form.

How is Vunivalu getting selected each week? Ineffective on attack - seems to go to ground easily and lacks speed; weak on defence - technique seems to be grab around shoulders and sling them to the ground, but he does like to get onto the back of rucks where not needed. Are we out of wingers?

Compare right wings: Mark Talea and Vunivalu. One makes effective tackles, breaks tackles and offloads in the tackle. The other jumps for kicks and gets stepped.

Don't deserve to make finals realistically. Tahs were better but don't look that flash.

Maybe Simon Cron is wondering what has he done signing Stewart. Not really sparking much attack.

Looked a lot less than that on TV.

Peitsch has been good.

Vunivalu seems to have surprisingly little physical impact - doesn't break tackles, went to assist a ruck and bounced off the side.

Can't see them beating Chiefs and Blues but Highlanders is winnable and Tahs aren't great. Drua in Fiji will be interesting.

SX, do you know the back story? I have no idea, and think Cordingley has had his time, but maybe there is still some reason why the QRU don't want to deal with this agent even if Cordingley is not there. To have such a strong organisational stance seems odd if it is all about one person's view...

Surprised after last season, Drua women were so good and really made the Australian teams lift. Great to see WF women win 2 in a row (I think).

Can't see Moana winning a game this season.

Commentators talking up Vunivalu like they haven't watched any of his previous games for the Reds! His intercept was pretty lucky - almost a deliberate knock on, defence has been weak and no urgency to follow up when defender has got past him.

Moana should drop the kicking, just giving it to the Reds to attack with. Look what happens when they run it.

Where is the crowd? Seems to be hardly anyone there.
