Personally I think if they haven't signed Brown yet they have missed a great opportunity. But then again after seeing treatment Hawera gets I won't be surprised if he Brown goes elsewhere. Performance still doesn't trump favoritism at the Brumbies. I can't help wonder why not Alcock, Quirk or...

Pocock and McCaffery out. BR - you get to see Brown start @7 as requested! ;) If he performs well he could be a potential option to replace Pocock's expected departure next year.

Thats a good point you raise Adam. IMHO think it also applies applies to the Rebels game. I believe we are (Aussie teams and coaches), still thinking old school and our game plays are set that way as well; the NZ way is all about the backs, the SA way is all about the forwards). We tend to focus...

One mitigating factor last night that was fairly evident at the game was watching the Raters' AR's, especially Mike Fraser. Fraser is usually pretty good when he is on-field but last night on the sideline he was out of position many times and we also noticed he was focused on the infield play...

That is, unless RA was prudent enough to put the relevant clauses in his new contract. I wonder if RA could potentially contemplate suing him should he have grossly breach his contract t&c's, assurances (noting potential loss of RA income should sponsorships be damaged /lost) and the code of...

Less so but a contributing factor is 9, but definitely our current 10, 12, 13 combination. It appears that McKellar is willing to change every other position on the field but this combination he is obsessed with even though its yielding little. McKellar has rotated / changed / tried other...

I wouldn't mind seeing Brown@7 and give Cusack a run @13.

ACT Brumbies coach Dan McKellar has conceded he must wing the axe for their clash against the Canterbury Crusaders following a poor loss to the Queensland Reds. "We’ll review and see what the options are. Changes will certainly be considered, we can’t perform like that and expect that there...

27 phases, 26 were rugby league'ish with only with two passes or less, to open the game was a big workload to start with. IMHO Brumbies need to go back to the drawing board. Game play, selactions, pretty much all of it really needs to be reconsidered. Well played to the Reds.

Wow! Thats nuts. Us death-defying Brumbies supporters have signed soft footies throw at us and in to the crowd post games. Somebody should let the genius behind that rule know that as they have made it abundantly clear balls are a danger, if a ball kicked into touch hits you, you will sue for...

Also, strategy and persistence pays in unusual ways. Mr 7 has missed only one Brumbies home game (B&L Lions included) due to ill health while Miss 2 has not missed any during their lifetimes. The bribe program consists of an old (non-touch screen) tablet for videos for the little one in the...

A little too familiar with the old enemy known as lag!;) Stadia is an interesting in that you can see both the good and bad in such a concept and technology but there is much yet unanswered and a lot of shortcomings. In the end it's more about the limitations of infrastructure. The latency...

The word "partner" seems to be a feature in most sports streaming services unlike other types of Web based streaming services.

Disagree. I have a lot of technology available to watch Web based services like Netflix, Optus TV etc but hate pissing about when I can just use a more reliable, simpler premium terrestrial service. The commercial reality is at this point Web based services are still yet bound to terrestrial...

I find this interesting. Is it my imagination, or does this seem similar to, if not GRR? “However, Japan and the Asia Pacific region remain strategically important to SANZAAR. “We will continue to work with the JRFU, Japan Super Rugby Association and other stakeholders, as we have done...

Add Stan in to the conversation about the shift from Foxtel. All Disney content has moved to Stan. Thats a big reason for those with kids to change.

NZR has signed a memorandum of understanding with Rugby Australia to support Forrest's venture. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=12181213

Not really. Off the back off the boardroom saga(s) where many supporters felt ignored the numbers dwindled. Then appointing a coach against a significant public outcry more dwindled. Results got worse more dropped off. Extending the same coach who has taken the team to the worst performances in...

Roof and closer to Civic won't matter much if you are unappealing and dour to watch. One thing Rugby, and especially the Brumbies management, is that sport is partly a popularity contest and you need to have the very basic marketing fundamentals in place to give you some hope. This season so...

I think his is the most significant issue in Aussie Rugby second only to the coaches who will not stop this merry go round. There is a long list of players from both of these teams who have played for year, many having played for or still playing for the Wallabies and we are unable to get any...
