Re: Victorian Rebels 2011
A.J. was one hell of a player from all accounts as he was growing up. Like most kids that are good out bush he often ended up playing 3 grades in one day. His age plus the higher ones. He never got a shot at the Reds. He is a possible rough dimond.

Re: Victorian Rebels 2011
AJ Gilbert should be a superstar by now. However he never got his act together and trained hard enough to make the step up. Even at club level last year he was basically a passenger. Im not sure that he can recover his career from this point.
It's a real shame because in the final of the U19 world cup, he was the best player on the pitch.

Re: Victorian Rebels 2011
they had Harold Mitchell, the main financial backer on sports tonight last night, said he was still confident falau would sign but said it didnt matter, indicated he is now making a decision on living in melbourne or queensland. Also confirmed that the colours will be blue and white (vic state colours) so they will match nicely with the brumbies. Said the jersey designs were in but he wouldnt show them, there is a weary dunlop vic rugby luncheon coming up so they might launch there official logo, colours there i think.

Re: Victorian Rebels 2011
Given that they've now got O'Neill, MacDonald, Byrnes and Campbell on their books it would seem Vickerman signing on for 2k11 is out of the question? Was this being mentioned or am I confused with another thread?

Re: Victorian Rebels 2011
I'm struggling to remember O'Neill but I would have if he shifted people around and I don't think he is a shifter. They need a power 2nd rower desperately because right now they have a nutter (Byrne), a marshmellow (Campbell light) and a nice as pie 4/5/6 Steady Eddie, McDonald.
4/5/6/8 Luke Jones will still be 19 when the 2011 S15 starts so you can't expect too much from him as a 2nd rower. When he's older I will expect him to be playing Super rugby, and more than that, like Hugh McMenimen, but next year he will be like 3M was at 19.
