Queensland Reds 2025

[Wilson]

Unless there was more said at the actual pres conference, Kiss simply said : “He was really looking forward to the Spring Tour, and if not, then joining the A team afterwards. Now is the time for him to go and get the job that’s needed on it [his shoulder], and I daresay by the first game of the year, he may be available again.”

Nick Wright reported that it was a full reconstruction, so its hard to say if Nick is just extrapolating or whether more was said.

From memory, Liam's injury was a nerve one, so it could be possible that its a clean up and small repair and not a full reconstruction i.e. the 3-6 month recovery period we're thinking of.

Shoulder recon is due to a new injury, probably related but seperate. I don't think there was any speculation/extrapolation from Nick Wright on the reconstruction, given he had a date and location:

Wright is expected to have a full reconstruction on Monday in Sydney, having endured a frustrating rehabilitation in which complications and an “innocuous clean out” at training exposed further concerns.

Anyone with info on the green and orange strip?

Looks awesome. Hope it’s an away strip. I’d wear that to the pub.

They wore this strip last year from memory in the Reds Development vs Challenger XV?

It looks vaguely familiar but I can't place it. Guessing it's something special for the tour.

Pretty sure that's it, knew I had seen it somewhere before

Glimpse at the future 12-13

Reminds me of the "uglies" series Canterbury does/did.

Love it to be honest, fun bloody jersey!

Fuck yeah, hoping he can replicate some of his brother’s form. Good work Reds.

Future long-term 15 IMO once Campbell eventually moves on. Great depth signing and hopefully they can hold onto him for a while.

Take that Doran...

Still a net loss in the playmaker/fullback category with Creighton, Grealy and JOC (James O'Connor) all departing IMO, withstanding the further development of HMP and Lynagh.

In his defence - this has only come off the back of a few player losses. Journos were saying it wasn't happening while we had Creighton/ JOC (James O'Connor) still on the books.

When will we know about Petaia?

New year I think? Mail is he will be one of the 15-20 on the IPP list, whether he cracks a team won't be known until post Super Bowl

From what I saw of Grealy and Creighton they are only a loss in the sense that they could fill in to a vaguely adequate standard in the absence of someone better.

JOC (James O'Connor) is no loss IMO.

just wait until he looks fucking incredible for the Crusaders and we start clamoring for him to be selected in Gold from NZ.
