Indication in the papers that Ant Fainga'a, McDuling, JOC (James O'Connor) and Thomson will be playing vs the Force so that's a minor positive. JJT out next week and Duncan copped a bump. You'd think they'll come in for CFS, Kotze, JJT and Schatz respectively (I thought Curtis was better last week, quite...

Edit ******** Punch = Red, simple as that. Disagree by all means, but not like that - Cyclo.

Foley, McMahon, Gill, Speight, JOC (James O'Connor) are guys on my list of potential sevens players. Obviously it'd be cool if a Folau and or a Hooper was there

When they collide it'll register in the Richter scale

Hunt plays 10 this week with JOC (James O'Connor) in the back 3... That doesn't necessarily mean he'll be as good there as he was last week and it could very easily over the next few rounds end up that they swap (and I think they will by round 3 or so).

Well with Debreczeni and Aussie Mike options at 10 and 12 respectively that may just pan out...unless you insist Ellison plays 13 (he's equally capable at 15 FYI)

I have a question for the Rebels faithful Fuglistaller seems a good player and a leader in his own right, but would Inman not also have been worth consideration in some leadership capacity? I bloody love the way that man plays the game...100% commitment, iron shouldered defence, uncompromising...

CB was very very good against the crusaders. It really just depends what you want out of the back row. Thomson could easily come in for Schatz too but I doubt that will happen. Based on history, I wonder if the best call is to go with a 6/2, with the bench being made up of 16. Hanson 17. Daley...

I wasn't comparing the two as rugby players. Digby was and may very well still be better. There are some very significant differences, but I think you'll find that in terms of "quickness" there isn't actually much between them. CFS is a kid I've watched for a very long time and his historically...

BUT THE BRUMS ARE SHOCK FULL OF WALLABIES!!!!! In all honesty I expect the teams to line up as follows Reds Brums 1. Slipper 2. FTS 3. Talakai 4. EOD 5. Kev 6. Thomson 7. Gill 8. Schatz 9. Genia 10. JOC (James O'Connor) 11. Kuridrani 12. FTA 13. Kerevi 14. JJT 15. Hunt 16. Chibba 17. Daley 18. ? 19...

Nonsense. He'll play minutes at some stage, but it'll be off the bench (as it should be) with JOC (James O'Connor) and/or Hunt playing the stop gap role. Hopefully he isn't forced to shoulder more responsibility than his experience level and form suggests he is ready for.

How about a list of players we deem to be absolute "must keep" from the players not yet confirmed to be leaving. For mine that list consists of the following. - Slipper - Carter - Simmons - Hooper - Fardy - Cooper - To'omua - KURIDRANI (Jake White and his Montpellier dollarmen can fuck off...

I don't really agree...Diggers is the same, powerful but not that quick in absolute terms. Also, the last few years Chris has barley ever run top pace.

Yeah on paper the Brums should get up for sure but that was true last year. I'm going to tip Brumbies by 5, but is tipped that last year too

I'm actually giddy with excitement

I actually prefer CFS on the wing. His strengths were always as a powerful, dynamic ball carrier with surprisingly excellent footwork and acceleration for a big guy (never a noted kicker or passer). I am a little worried he might be a touch over his ideal playing weight right now. He's always...

Frisby played like Frisby does. Some very good things and then some extraordinarily stupid unnecessary things. Didn't look as composed as we would have hoped for a bloke that has been around a few years now. Still, he's a Super Rugby quality scrum half now so that's good for us to have experienced...

Maybe Hunt will fly up and get DC with a To'omua like bell ringer. That's be fun

Anyone that watched the whole game have any comments other than scrum, maul and line out? Did we do anything else well? Any if the young fellas kill it or suck?

WHY DOES THE MAN UPSTAIRS HATE US?! A thumb injury for fucks sake...
