No, I think we'll probably be lucky if they all are - given the Australia XV game against Bristol wasn't broadcast I expect the Reds one won't be either.

Reds have signed Wallaroos halfback Layne Morgan from Waratahs. Glad to see she is staying in rugby, when announced she was leaving Tahs was worried she had signed with NRLW

I'll be at that game since I"m going on the Reds tour organised by Gullivers Travels. The upside of it not being televised is there will be no chance of folk dying after seeing my horror-head in the crowd on TV.

It'll be exciting to see how she contributes to the Reds' setup and continues to grow her game. A solid signing for Queensland!

Didn't need a lot of convincing. She's been going to Reds games for years and was v. interested in the Irish leg of the tour.

Maybe in the future, but he's nailing the bench halfback role and I wouldn't be changing that anytime soon.

I thought it obvious that he’d be starting in my team?

I get the sentiment but he is so clearly, so much more impactful off the bench at the moment. His running game against tired players is like getting the star in Mario Kart

Yoda thinks he deserves the spot in his team though...
I believe the bench is the place the side currently gets the most impact from him. Also no reason when he comes on if other players have come off for whatever reason he can becomes the Captain. I'd guess he is a leader amongst the squad even more so than Gordon. They just have different in game roles.

I think the bigger issue is that his core skills aren’t demanding a starting spot. He’s demonstrated that his speed and running game can be a threat, even when defences are more fresh. But there’s too much downside risk at the moment with his skill execution to throw him out from the start. Later in the game Schmidt obviousky sees enough in the risk/reward trade off. If we saw him lift his passing accuracy and/or kicking this super season I doubt Schmidt would hold him back purely for the benefit of running against tired opposition.

went out to Reds fan day last Friday, not a bad afternoon for the kids and family.
Noticed a few in the rehab group; Liam Wright was in a no contact bib, Toomaga-Allen was in a knee brace, Matt Gibbon and John Byrant weren't training and Isaac Henry and Max Craig were doing rehab on the sides.
Of those who have returned, it was good to see Tim Ryan back back in team runs; I watched some pre-season before Christmas, and he was hobbling, so it's good to see he is back. Trevor King is looking to have put on size, as had Frankie Goldsborough.
It looked like Charlie Brosnan was doing drills with the team also, I've seen him regularly with the senior team now.

is Max Craig still rehabing or is it a new injury for a young guy he has not played in an awfully long time.
