Yup I too thought Lukhan was very good in the first half, apart from one mistake.

I assume the Samoan team has been picked from players based in Samoa, as opposed to NZ (or Australian) based Samoans?

Well another great day for Power House. 5 from 5 through 1st to 4th grade and women. 1st grade with a really tough game against the dogs, snatched a win with a try to captain Busta after the siren and a conversion by the Governor to win by a point. Sore head this morning. Edit oh actually the...

Pretty hard to take much out of that apart from commending the effort on the ball and in defence. They didn't have structures and shapes sorted yet which led to lots of disharmony in attack. I fully expect any team coached by Schmidt to develop these systems, but last night, as Laurie Fisher put...

I've been watching Judah Saumaisue carve it up all season at number 8 for the Power House 1st grade in Melbourne. After watching the Georgia and Italy matches, and seeing the lack of impact from the second and back row, I simply can not fathom how he was left out of the squad.

Judah's not with a Fijian side because he's born and bred in Melbourne and wants to be a professional player in Australia. Yeah he ran with the Fiji under 20s last year but this year he nominated and tried to qualify for the Australian under 20s.

I'm just amazed that he's not in South Africa with the under 20s. Forget the Drua, hopefully he picks up a contract with one of the Australian Super Rugby sides for next year. Maybe do a year with one of the northern states academies and play Shute Shield or Hospital Cup.

Hell yeah House is on fire! Former House player here, don't get to every match but try to get down to as many home games as possible. Great that the club is going so well lately, really buoyant and positive mood around the club. Brought the 4th grade side on this year and still have too many...

Regarding Sean McMahon: two of his best friends are Quade Cooper and Nick Frisby. Frisby was a groomsman at his wedding. I don't think he's going to the Reds.

It's not a million a year. Believe the deal is 750,000 per year, and a 1+1 contract term. The deal was agreed to in principle months ago, before SANZAAR decided to cut the competition down to 15 teams. It's a purely financial decision, and one that is pretty hard to turn down.
