Would that not only be a waste of development of a good 10 @10 for the player, Brumbies and Aussie rugby? Is it really a solution at 12? I still can't help but wonder what the story is with Dargaville as both he and the Brumbies have known about Godwin's departure for a while and A.Smith was...

Ah, correct; sorta. o_O Wallabies halfback Will Genia is comfortable with his decision to join the Melbourne Rebels on a two-year deal, but says the unfortunate timing of his return to Australian rugby spoiled his chance of a dream reunion with the Queensland Reds. "It's just the unfortunate...

'We won't recruit rockstars': Dan McKellar keen to develop Brumbies https://www.canberratimes.com.au/sport/rugby-union/we-won-t-recruit-rockstars-dan-mckellar-keen-to-develop-brumbies-20180714-p4zrjl.html I wonder if this really means we don't have any money? I can't even think who would be a...

It is will known I am not a fan of his and was not in favour of his appointment. I was happy to be proved wrong and give him enough rope and we have now had one of the poorest seasons on record at the detriment to a club already struggling to maintain support. I said at the start of the year...

It was inevitable that their had to be some improvement to the forwards play and a step up in McKellar's coaching noting everybody could see his game plan was pathetic. From late Feb: ^^^^It was about the same time he was did an interview and was banging in about the forwards taking the...

^^^Dargaville would have been a fantastic option at 12 post Godwin. We are really going to struggle with depth (and in general IMHO) next year. Consider last nights game without Mayhew, Ritchie A, Makin, Godwin, and Naisarani. The forwards were the core and strength of this side. Some...

Sio out, Mayhew to start. Alexander on the bench. https://www.canberratimes.com.au/sport/rugby-union/brumbies-blow-scott-sio-ruled-out-of-last-round-waratahs-clash-20180713-p4zrd4.html

With Sio now ruled out of the Tahs clash and also in line with BR's comments above about Sio's frequent injury issues we will get to see exactly how much it will hurt to lose Mayhew. Such a shame. :(

If that list is on the money consider that being a RWC year Cheika will most likely expect certain players to have workloads managed and possibly be called in to camps. It will leave the Brumbies very light on. It's unsurprising as well that that group are going as McKellar's not a fan of...

This is the Brumbies organisation. They wont make an announcement until after the fact and too late for the fans to at least say thank-you and farewell. Matter of fact they will be one of the last to actually announce anything. Right now there nothing on the Brumbies website, nothing on their...

Its a slow and subtle consumption of the game. The RA re-branding; coincidence or pre-planning? Either way it fits; WaRAtahs :eek: ;) Right in the heart and centre of the WaRAtahs. :p

Almost criminal considering the Brumbies already have some good options at 12 and then option like Paia'aua. Why look offshore at foreign players? It would be a sad road to see the Brumbies go down. I can' t see it yielding much. Most likely blow up in their face and burn more bridges...

I love Aussie rugby! If we can't cut and buy our way to the finals it back to the old dispensations and favours for the Tahs. The scary bad 10th place Brumbies might ruin your limping in to the finals. Boo hoo! I think you may have tempted fate and expect Dismal will be swooping in to...

Maybe we can get a coach for next year;). At the last home game someone sitting near us at the end of the game actually asked in all seriousness if the Brumbies had named the new coach for 2019 yet. I think that sums up the way most supporters see things ATM. At least the last 2 weeks have...

Because he is not. He has been fairly ineffective this year off the back. Also his laziness in getting back on side slowly then failing to try to make a tackle cost us a try in part tonight. We wont miss him too much TBH.

Yep. I think its time for Lilo to make the most of the $$$ opportunities. Hawera came on and we went forward instead of crabbing and trying the predictable "hail mary" out wide stuff. I have said it before and will say it again; Hawera is a better option at 10 overall. He plays at the line and...

Simply out gunned tonight by the Chiefs. They know he is only one man (a mere man at that) so they sent 2 or more. Notice how many times the Brumbies got blown off the ball due to lack of support / numbers at the breakdown.

IMHO the irony around RA's ideas is that the IPRC and a good domestic comp done right would trump Super Rugby. I think if you have a look at what Half has been banging on about (and I say that with all due respect) the fact that netball has got a comp going, basketball has resurrected itself in to a...

If we changes coaches it would be more likely. ;)

Funny you should say that. I spoke to him post the Brumbies v Sunwolves game and he was about 4 week ahead of where they though he would be. I was pleasantly surprised. He was already starting to do some pool work. Said he was feeling really good but being cautions as to not push too far with...
