    Forum Upgrade

    Just a quick question Re: the forum rules. Have they been discarded due to the forum upgrade or is the above a breach of the old rule 6: Play the ball not the man?- (Only a complete knob jockey resorts to personal insults anyway). If it is super disappointing that if so its a staff member and...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    I will be interested to see at the end of this 2yr TT concept if the MP (Moana Pasifika) team and even the Fiji team retain much of connection to the original identity that is being spruiked currently. Its already looking like the MP (Moana Pasifika) will be primarily in name only rather than composition and essentially will be...

    This - actively coaching the players. IMHO yes; WR (World Rugby) needs to step up and take some actions.

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    The cynic in me loves this type of marketing BS. COVID has gifted them a captive audience with stuff all else to do. It almost impossible for any broadcaster to go backwards! As for the subscriber part, considering your local Foxtel installer is also in lockdown and cant fit your dish, its...

    Brumbies 2022

    I would be chasing Hewat. Since he left the Brumbies have been like a trolley with a dodgy wheel. If not I think its time to go with a fresh face in the organisation. Not sure is recycling is the way to go. Bernie newer got the Brumbies going, (nor the Wallabies attack) and the Brumbies took...

    Lions in South Africa 2021

    Lot of clips doing the rounds of the new Springboks on-field coaching tactics. Medic was tracking behind this play yelling to the players "coaching" from the in goal through its duration. One of many examples. The other medic was given a warning part way through the game not to come on to the...

    Lions in South Africa 2021

    After reading a bit more about this I am starting to wonder if this is not SARU throwing the toys out of the cot and having tantrum about how mean the Rugby worlds is because they have realised that they have shat their bed organisationally - thus the spectacular attention seeking "nobody loves...

    Aussie Player Exodus

    Hmm, I am not. Short season here unless you are Wallaby. Still lots of questions about SRAU (10 rounds then finials), TT is still not set, so what's on offer its a quick stint in a "compact" (short with 5 teams) SRAU competion which suits the emerging talent trying to make an impression to get...

    Brumbies 2022

    I had already called dibs on that one! ;) Somethings not right. A lot of one way traffic out of the land of the young and supposedly abundant opportunities!

    Brumbies 2022

    Good deal for Mogg, for the Brumbies I am not sure. Another poor signing in my view. Not sure where he would fit. It appears McKellar has a thing for the past-their-prime players. Sad to see a opportunity for a good emerging player wasted.

    Refereeing decisions

    The other option is to concede there is doubt, mitigate to a yellow and allow it to be put on report and dealt with later when they have time to consider it more. The reality is when you are standing on a field, looking at big screen (of varying quality) from a distance, you are time poor, it...

    Refereeing decisions

    Law 15 (Ruck) section 14: Players may play the ball with their feet, provided they do so in a safe manner.

    Refereeing decisions

    Spot on BH. IIRC rule change about 2 years ago, can't kick a ball out of ruck but you can play backwards with your boot.

    Wallabies v France, Brisbane, Sat 17th July, 8pm

    Didn't Kerevi get penalised then later carded for similar at the RWC?

    Correct, They played him at 12 instead of his usual 13 in the Aust U20's.

    Wallabies v France, Brisbane, Sat 17th July, 8pm

    Not bad from a 21yo who shifted from his usual position at 13 to play at 10 for the first time in 2018 in the JiD Grand final. He was playing in Colts until mid year and then got called up. He was named in 2018 team of the year at 13. Thanks to the NRC to help his evolution! ;) I think give...

    Refereeing decisions

    I think its a combination of Law 15 (Ruck), section 16 (a) and Law 9 (Foul Play), section 20(s) dangerous play Players must not: (a) Pick the ball up with their legs. (b) Intentionally collapse a ruck or jump on top of it. (c) Intentionally step on another player. (d) Fall over the ball as it...
