Lazy runners? Isn't that a term used to describe players intentionally transitioning back to an on side position deliberately at a slow speed and interfering or making it difficult for the opposition half-back by getting in the way of the play? Again. Intent. Lazy runners choose to be there...

Yep, again intent. Hand deliberately trying to stop pass. The knock on is the consequence of the action.

The deal reported in several media outlets involved a frontloaded deal over 4 years. IIRC it was $2.6 initially with the balance of the $6mil to be paid over the remaining term. The aru savings claim is hinged on the frontloaded payment reducing the residual. Thus why Cox can sue.

Yep. The simple question is why is his hand there? Swatting flies, waving at his peeps? No, its there intentionally to interfere with the pass, or attempted pass. or to prevent the pass. Sorry, ref but my hands......

Ok, so here the question to consider alongside the rumour over the cutting of the Force. So "allegedly" the ARU are justifying the axing of one Aussie Super Rugby team to cut costs and save the ARU money. The Force have a 5 years sponsorship deal reportedly worth a $1mil+(ish) per year plus other...

Brumbies crowd just over 11k.

Be careful what you wish for because if it does go what will be left? Unless you have a good option to generate money fast, it the lynch pin to rugby having any income; including the Wallabies which is part of the TV deal. You don't have to be a financial genius to see why it so important to...

Actually it looks as though the changes have brought it MORE into consideration. "In this case, if the ball has reached the plane of touch when it is caught, then the catcher is not deemed to have taken the ball into touch. If the ball has not reached the plane of touch when it is caught or...

If ever a team needed sport psychologist to deal with pressure! As soon as the momentum shifts and pressure goes on they completely morph into basket case. Was it my imagination or did the Rebels defence back off and become passive in that second half once they were under pressure, and all...

Some of his comments are very apt, some have merit, some are obvious, The cynics would also say based on rest history, the motivation is more around the concern to potential cut to the Shute funding.

No. Not the case. The raiders have there own facilities (purpose built and not shared and capital) like other major sports in Canberra. A lot of sports use the $1 land deal available from the ACT Government to build and create capital. The co- tenants are / were UC linked (like the UC Capitals)...

Um, No. The Brumbies "invested" nothing, they are merely tenants who have pre-paid an undisclosed amount of rent, the period of time which that amount covers is also undisclosed. The money is gone and there is nothing to show for it. No capital, no investment, and no returns. They are at the...

Political or not, its not a bad strategy to help push the Brumbies case. I would be interested in the NRL's reaction and those pushing for an A-League team or soccer supporters in general. Considering the success of the Canberra women's soccer team, and events like the AFC its a big call by...

McKellars NRC team never came close to running rugby in the 2 games they were under him. IIRC the team was so forwards orientated it was ridiculous. It does not bode well if he has to much influence over the team.

Sorry Slim, 14years of losses is correct. The closest they came to a profit was under Jones but the Brumbies board made sure that didn't happen. Quote from Kennedy stating that reported CBR times 18 Feb. I wonder if hid statement excluded the suppressed years?

$6 million for five years; the deal is front-end loaded, it is understood the Rebels are being paid $2.6m for 2016, the initial year of the deal, but that payments are reduced considerably in value over the remaining four years...

Depends if they have seen job ad in the Brumbies carpark: Same recruitment advisers as the Department of Finance perhaps? :rolleyes:

McKellar odds firming as the winner of the carpark search. No Cron, no O'Connor. Begs the question who are the candidate(s)?

Fisher and Palmer; master and ex-apprentice. That is one hell of darkarts master class right their. Scrums would be like some ninja / zen / mystic type thing where we would see pushover tries without seeing the tight five's feet move! :eek:

Mate I wish it were Dan Palmer! Aside from Fisher, probably the next best candidate.
