Thanks to all you guys who provided updates.

Updates very much appreciated. Hope the Finals go well.

Many thanks. I don't use Instagram

Are you able to provide updates as we don't seem to be able to get access to results at all.

Is 'financial capacity' the right term, or are you talking about a willingness to pay players rather than not pay players and invest in player development internally. Some of the clubs in your lower tiers have no debt and healthy bank accounts.

This is accurate but I would go further. His overall stats were poor, his reading of where to be positionally when off the ball is poor, his lack of urgency to get back in support of his other outside backs when the opposition kicks through is poor. His tackling technique is poor and his...

Aus and Ken both lost two in our pool but as our for and against was better we went through as one the two best placed third teams.

He needed Sua'ali'i to run on an angle to get closer to him in support. He just ran straight downfield and so remained out of support range for a pass from Tupou. Sua'ali'i is far from an international level OC for me and his defence skills continue to be poor. I think we would be best served...

So he missed around one third of his tackles and you want to bin him, yet in the England match Sua'ali'i missed half his tackles and was apparently a god. Even in the thirty minutes in this match he attempted around four of five, made one or two, injured himself in another by leading with the...

As distinct from the bloke who in 83 minutes carried six times for 5m and effectivly just offloaded.

To be more positive - it can also provide oppprtunity. Play more tests against other top ten ranked teams such as Argentina and the ever improving Fiji (as there will likely not be as many against SA and NZ). Less matches against top three ranked teams would potentially see more wins and...

With that one point win Australia moves up to 8 on the world rankings and Argentina slips down to 7.

Fun Fact. Australia is the only nation to have made it to the semis in both the mens and womens Sevens competitions at the Paris Olympics.

QFs were predetermined with A1 playiing 2nd best 3rd place, B1 playing best 3rd place, C1 playing B2 and C2 playing B2. Bset 3rd place was Ireland so we ended up playing them twice.

Great to see that they sold 550,000 tickets for the first eight sessions (just under 70,000 per session) with the womens' remaining sessions also supposed to be sold out. In the article below World Rugby are apparently now talking to LA and Brisbane organisers about stadium capacity given the...

And that follow on try was from a very clear forward pass not called. Another Bok try was from a tackle on Lawson that seemed to hit Lawson in the same place that Malouf got red carded for but not called. Tough day of decisions for the boys.

Absolutely smashed attendance records with 130,000 across the two sessions for quarter final day.

Hooper has retired with immediate effect as he was not going to make the actual Olympic squad (but may have been included as a travelling reserve). Team to be locked in this Wednesday so hopefully announced same day.
