Long weekend? Is Monday a RDO in Canberra?

RA or Joe Schmidt aren’t paying it though. The benefactor was happy to part with his daily interest income to bring JS back to our game which is what matters. He doesn’t care in the slightest what position JS is picked in, as long as he’s out there somewhere.

Better suited to 14 I think at test level. They’ll put bombs at him if he’s fullback to put him under pressure and make him vulnerable to the brain snaps. Kellaway is safer and more cool headed up the back. The attack roles are so similar these days, can easily create a 2nd play off the open...

NSW certainly produces good players. Keeping them is our problem. Wright certainly having the better night out but as Tom says he has a much better platform to work from. I’d have them both in the team at 14 & 15.

I'm not sure if a run in NSW B counts as a Tah's debut. However, he was definitely on the radar, more radars than Eddie in any case. I think from what I read somewhere he had played in Randwick reserve grade immediately prior to being selected in his first Wallabies squad but was returning...

If those blokes get clearance to play in the finals it makes a mockery of whatever rules exist in this shambolic competition.

It sounds like that was pretty soon after he had his ARU contract ripped up, he was a bit of a lost soul at that stage of his life.

PS good luck tonight Rebels, give 'em hell

No I was just curious as to what the attitude was as to whether it had to be the Rebels or just a professional team. I genuinely don't think that RA want to kill off pro rugby in Victoria, I don't know what the specific motive was to vote against the consortium but it certainly does have hairs...

What would you guys do if this is all just the first step in a broader plan to replace Super Rugby with a domestic pro comp, largely centralised, in which Melbourne have a team, just one with a different name?

I did actually give you mine and you acknowledged it with a 'like', but I appreciate you've got a lot to do: Kings +1 View +7 New +7 I'm a bit like Ghost in that I'll need Kings to have a good season to have any chance of winning this.

It may not have been a sell out but it wasn't easy to get a few decent seats together. I know because I tried to at the last minute but couldn't so didn't bother going.

I'm certainly not advocating for too many Waratahs to be in the 23 this year, and I doubt there will be any uncapped players selected. However, their position on the ladder this season needs to be kept into perspective given the horror run of 11 front row injuries, as many have said no team is...

Good luck in the semis, those who made it. I was looking good for the first half of the season then it went pear shaped.

Yeah, I’m not talking about forever, just in a couple of months time. I’m not advocating for or against anyone’s inclusion, and nothing would surprise me, I’m just trying to nut out what the most likely outcome is.

Which is why I was seeking some enlightenment beyond what I had already read.

None of the others are as well. Rule a line through the Tahs and Reds options, that probably makes it a shootout between Gordon, Donaldson and Lolesio.

that sounds like a 'just because' response
