Whereabouts in Platinum are you guys? I might have to come say hello. Or um, have the butler do so.

Hm, I completely misread your first question. To answer it would be theoretically no, as the ref should not call a stoppage of play. But practically yes, as he probably would.

Well sure, but you'd better hope your hypothetical player does not exit the opaque box until a stop in play occurs (should he be alive). If he exits while the ball is live, then your team would have 16 players on the field which is quite the no-no. No such problem exists if he is in fact...

Sounds like White is staying true to form and avoiding fetchers in the Openside role. Michael Hooper, come to Melbourne :)

It should be noted (if I remember correctly) that the only try that the Blues scored in the first half was the one where Gerrard was out of position and outpaced by the kick overhead. The other tries were all in the second half. Unfortunately for those sort of videos, they don't show so much...

That would be Pyle

Both of which (I think, 7s definitely) rule him ineligible to play for the Wallabies; which is the definition of the marquee player.

He's probably played 7s or Springboks A or something.

I don't know what's more amusing, the OP or the indignant retorts from the (former) backs. Keep up the good work Scott.

I'm inclined to agree with Daz as I noted that there weren't a heap of the RA there. Then again, I just assumed that since it was GA all around the ground, they took the opportunity to try out the fancy seats before the season proper started. As I am a fancy seater for the season proper, I took...

Pretty sure that the first half team (as announced) was: 1. Henderson, 2. Robinson, 3. Weeks, 4. Byrnes, 5. Pyle, 6. Chamberlain, 7. Lipman, 8. Delve, 9. Phipps, 10. Cipriani, 11. Vuna, 12. O'Connor, 13. Inman, 14. Gerrard, 15. Beale. That being said, I didn't notice Chamberlain playing...

I think he's probably too good a player not to be on the park for them in some fashion. If it is not at 13, then put him on the wing. I can imagine he'd be a bit miffed moving from a starting gig at the Force to riding the pine. Unless he is taking a longer view. Edit: The longer view might...

I imagine he will play wing. He is referred to as an outside back in http://www.melbournerebels.com.au/Team/Player/tabid/297/playerid/35/Default.aspx

2 per year Lee. 2011 - 10, 2012 - 8, 2013 - 6, 2014 - 4, 2015+ - 2

Possibly could have other seating on boats or pontoons.

From what I have gathered from recent discussions of the topic, the ARU academies are for the players being paid for by the ARU. If the individual states want to reach into their own pockets to pay for a player to train with them, there is the implication that they can. However, the player...

Now, that's patently untrue.

I'll put a smiley in next time ;)

Well, it used to be the case didn't it? I think the Reds fans may have the edge currently.

Don't make it a sidenote. How was their scrummaging?
