Yeh I realised Slipper hasn't played there for 2 years, but i still think he is a better proposition at tighthead than Kepu or Ryan at the moment. Ryan although improving is still struggling. And Kepu although he did some good work coming off the bench yesterday he is no longer regarded as the...

I thought I'd have a stab at a team now that all the games have been finished. This is the team for the first game. 1 - Sio - He is an absolute powerhouse and giving him the full series against the French to cement his spot will do him the world of good. 2 - Moore (C) - Who else?? TPN needs...

Laurie Weeks has been brought into the Wider training squad. Probably means Ryan has been promoted the full squad. Ryan was really good yesterday. Best game he has played this year, his work around the park was strong as usual, and his scrummaging improved. Slightly...

I use to watch a bit of Debreczeni when he was at school. He was a class player then behind a strong trinity forward pack and like has been mentioned he has a booming boot. He is also very big for a 5/8 so can carry a few defenders with him , but as you said he is a few years off being ready for...

I was thinking something similar maybe he just wanted to get away from Sydney and Australia for a few years to get away from the constant pressure and scrutiny. Going to Ireland and playing without the stress or expectation of leading the pack or gunning for Wallaby selection will do him good.

In short yes. Simmons may not be showing it this year but he is a bloody good player, very experienced for his age and will be able to run our lineout.

Mmmmmm, maybe he just wants to get away from Sydney for a few years, come back after his two years are done and really push on from there with the experience of playing two long seasons in Europe against some of the toughest forward packs. But this really will accelerate the promotion of...

http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-union/union-news/kane-douglas-signs-with-leinster-report-20140505-zr4mw.html Douglas is confirmed to be leaving. Big loss for the Tahs, hopefully Holloway steps up and can fill the gap. Is Potgeiter signed for next season?

I wouldn't be messing with the team that much. I think chopping and changing the team too much especially after a week off will do more harm than good. Having said that i'd like to see a bit more of some players. 1. Robinson 2. Latu 3. Ryan 4. Skelton 5. Potgeiter 6. Dennis 7. Hooper 8...

I really like the look of those and the name. Hopefully they pick it up!

https://www.facebook.com/sydneystarsrugby/posts/689829071075253:0 This should interest most of the people here. The 'Stars' are giving fans the chance to rename the team and choose a logo.

Congrats to the Force tonight, they really deserved it tonight. Capitalised on the poor handling and discipline of the Tahs. Once Kepu went off Ryan never seemed comfortable in the scrum. Tahs will be furious with their performance tonight. I wouldn't want to be around Cheika. Has there every...

Thats a real shame for him.

I thought I'd share this article here. And was wondering if you blokes had heard anything more on this part of the article? If he does that is a real shame for Australian rugby.

Cheers Ash. Still haven't seen a replay of it. At the time I thought Horwill had just made a bad read in defense.

Really good game of rugby if you are a Tahs fan. Shame about the atmosphere at the Stadium. I understand with Mardi Gras the need to move the game, but it would have been a much better spectacle at Allianz. Less than 20, 000 for a Tahs vs Reds game is poor. Hopefully over the course of this...

Yes probably but it should be a double yellow

that is the most ridiculous yellow card ever!!! How can the Cheetahs player bind illegally take a Rebels player out of play and then the rebels player gets sin binned for trying to get away???? Poor reffing!

The Rebels look really impressive so far! Great defense, they have made a number of turnovers so far. Jones has been magnificent! And Higginbotham has really led from the front! In the backs Burgess has the run the team and Inman has also been very good. Hegarty looks pretty stationary and...

This is a great game so far. Rebels playing some beautiful rugby!
