Or Rod Macqueen. Or Bob Dwyer. Could be any number of people really.

Blythe you fuck-knuckle - I have both you and Corey Toole in my fantasy team. There‘s a bit of chat on other socials that the Reds don’t look up to it physically - in the dressing room, I.e. they aren’t conditioned

Re Tate - and Jake Gordon - I would suspect they received similar phone calls. Something along the lines of 'we obviously need a 3rd halfback in the squad but you're not doing it for me right now'. The 3rd one cant be Louwrens or Simpson, and I doubt the understudies at the Reds and Tahs are...

I think it would depend on what message Eddie has conveyed to him directly and how far off the squad he is - you would think he is literally one back row injury/suspension away.

I’ve just been browsing the laws, and whilst I’ll concede I haven’t had a thorough look there are 2 things I can’t find - the first is a specific reference to ‘tackling’ the ball carrier. The second is I can’t find anything that specifies the sanction should be a yellow card - if it was a...

That was my read on it as well

That’s what I was referring to?

I think the ‘not considered due to injury’ are just ‘not considered’. Otherwise wouldn’t they be in the ‘rehab group’? The difference could be that those in the latter group are part of the definite plans, whereas he needs to see more of the former group I.e. they would be be fringe selections.

All that aside, I agree with the many on here that think the maul laws are ridiculous. If a player has the ball he should be allowed to be tackled, as long as the tackler makes a legal tackle and comes from an onside position. That law, and the maul laws in general, are designed to allow the...

I know what the law is, I’m saying that HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes) thought the maul was over. And im wondering why he thought that.

Berry said HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes) was fine until he brought the ball carrier down - my interpretation of that is that he had conveyed the maul was over.

I worked out what you were saying afterwards - I had NW as north west so I thought you were all over the place!

And with some refs we might have been allowed to continue the game with 15 players.

Would you like your next one straight or with soda?

There are only 2 halfbacks there so definitely a message to Jake and Tate.

You are correct.

Note that’s richie Arnold, not Rory, right? Or is that just an intern error?

He could if he’s on an injury return or not living up to the hype. But overall you are right, it appears to be about the ‘optics’ - he needs to align with a club nevertheless

I see both points of view, but if he’s going to go back to his roots it will be Eastwood. If he’s like most players being rational and basing it on where he lives it will be Easts - the fact that Archer Holz and Teddy Wilson, along with some other classmates, are at the latter will also have...

Clearly the Force game is the reason it was put back, however I suspect the squad was already picked - maybe the Force players in contention are in regardless, or maybe there aren’t any. We will find out soon. My guess is Nine wanted to name it on Sports Sunday so as to avoid a clash with the...
