Ipswich must have a Rugby Club, surely? With pokies to keep wifey & ma-in-law (& tab to keep pa- & bro-in-law(s)) occupied? Nephew can stay home & reflect on his luddite ways (unless he's our sober driver).

Not funny @dillyboy. At least for SF we'll be on the GC but the main family dinner of the trip is Saturday night, booking is for 7pm so I'm not 100% sure HTF I'm watching that (assuming CruSadists are in it).

I'm going to be in Ipswich for this & have been advised our host (who's nephew status is currently under review) possess neither a tv nor wifi. Sure he & his partner work on South Straddie & are hardly ever "home" but still... Looks like I'm watching it on my phone using my NZ data at whatever...

Sorry, should've said "Gentleman's Agreement".

I don't do Insta or Facebook but my Google feed has thrown up (& I mean that in the most fundamental way possible) speculation linking RMo to Moana: I thought it was part of his sabbatical deal that he return to CruSadists? If nor fair enough but if so a deal is a deal is a deal, eh.

Double fuck 'em then!

Somehow I thought if the RIS craze made its way to actual footy matches it'd be somewhere a little more bogan than Manly https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/360710392/fans-warned-after-disturbing-run-it-straight-challenge-turns-nrl-matches

"...promised that its players will remain available for all international fixtures, allowing them to continue to represent their countries." I confidently predict that unless WR (World Rugby) & the member Unions thereof are getting a cut the comp won't be sanctioned & the players will effectively be banned...

Confirmed: "All Blacks hooker Asafo Aumua limped out of training at the New Zealand Campus of Innovation and Sport on Tuesday afternoon and was taken away on a cart. "The Hurricanes co-captain appeared to be in visible discomfort after copping a blow to his knee..."...

Another 500+ former players have signed on to the class action lawsuit against WR (World Rugby), the English & Welsh RU's & the bodies governing pro & amateur league in UK, taking the total to over 1100. https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/360709804/more-1000-former-rugby-players-concussion-lawsuit

Shaun Stevenson's departure to Kubota has been confirmed.

Haven't seen any updates yet & with it being a holiday may be nothing until tomorrow.

OK @TSR, I'll wait until mid-week to remind y'all of CruSadists' win/loss % in home KO matches...

Havili should be back, also Jordan, Newell & Grace.
