They are so highly valued elsewhere.
Skelton, Simmons, Douglas, Arnold, Arnold, Philip, Hosea, Hockings, Stohlberg - all would add huge value to Aus teams.

Adam Coleman, Tom Staniforth, Lopeti Timani, Steve Mafi, Steve Cummins, man mountain Manny Meafou who'd likely be in the Les Bleus if we still had the 3 year rule instead of the 5 year one: all running around the URC or Top14 as well, even if some of them are playing with different National Jerseys.

Yes I was avoiding the no-longer aus eligibles.
It's a big list and it's where our Super Rugby teams struggle

Great set of variations and some interesting names in those teams. I'm a bit surprised Zander is being used given he's not being given a contract, I don't mind too much but would've preferred Harry Lloyd had a run. Great to see Toomaga-Allen coming in early (and playing for Norths), George Francis getting a look in and the return of Josh Nasser. Will Sankey an interesting one too, I had thought he might have picked up a contract os after leaving the Force, this looks like he'll be in the frame for a spot for next year, given he's in the Reds development squad. Maybe Minimbi as well who must be off contract with the Drua. No Upfield might be a sign he's gone, unless he's injured.
Also love that Wright and Campbell are taking on coaching roles while they rehab injuries.

I hope they call use it before players form a caterpillar ruck and I think taking the kick should be the advantage, not the result of the kick
Did the pick the wrong Wilson and wrong Usher? Wouldnt surprise me.

It's great to see that sunshine coast grammar pathway really developing. Seems like a steady stream of guys coming through the last few years.

i wouldn't trust what they upload too much. Half the time this year players have their name spelt incorrectly.
I mean even in the team naming post they got Charlie Tupu and Jordy Carriera spelt wrong lol unless there's another Charlie Tupou and Jordan Carera playing lol
