Rebels 2013

[stoff]

I know the Rebels are lurking around these forums, so hear this.

DO ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

I'm not sure he is a good fit for the club.

"He has a bigger problem than his contract and that's his conduct," Carmichael said. It is understood the 34-Test winger was involved in an altercation with Regatta staff when they refused to admit him bare-chested to a restaurant at the well-known Brisbane riverside hotel. He later tweeted about the incident, attacking the hotel. The incident comes barely a month after Ioane was stood down from a Reds match after getting involved in an incident at a Melbourne bar."

Do we really need another bloke who has issues with wearing shirts in public?

Melbourne weather, he will be wearing shirts in Public a lot more often than Brisbane. His family are here and he won't want to do anything to embarrassing again in Melbourne. He would be a better fit than Beale.

I think digby will 100% go where the money is. He takes care of his family and makes all their money, i understand his dad still lives in Samoa. Also - i get the distinct impression Digby is the sort of player/athlete who needs to make hay while the sun shines as I get the distinct impression there is limited post rugby career planning there.
you do wonder where some of these players are going to end up - the ones not doing study or without the 'smarts' for media.

I presume you mean players like Greg Martin, Tim Horan and Matthew Burke.

Bouncing at the Regatta?

Smarts for media = a sensible haircut.

That is where Digby is going to miss out.

Who's heading up to Brisvegas, June 1? Flights are $104, each way with Virgin.

Get around the away trip double, Brisbane -> Canberra.

Pints at the LA Hotel

Sounds like he is a perfect fit for the Rebels culture

i was thinking actually of some of the quality afl players who are doing quite well in media now. freier aside, i am yet to see an ex wallaby be much chop in the media department.

I don't mind Burke and Horan nearly as much as i detest Eyeore and Martin.

Burke should stop writing (his articles are not that good) and stick to radio, where i think he does a good job. Horan also better on the radio. he should stick less to breaking rugby news on tv and analyzing games.

I don't mind Sharpie, thought he was going to be useless if you went by his post match interviews as Force captain. Other than that I can deal with Clarkie but the rest are muppets. Fox Sports should sign Freier to do all Rebels games at least.

Pyle and Neville have signed on for 2 more years, according to the AAP.

 

[Sir Arthur Higgins]

Superb news. Lock stocks secured.
Jones next and boom we have 2nd and back row of excellent quality

KevO - ya I like sharpie. He is smart, measured, calm and knows the game.
Martin is a moron. Full stop. Have not heard anyone like him

 

[kronic]

Just needs Jonesy to sign on.

 

[blues recovery]

Heard that Alo Emille also resigned today and that they are very close to signing Lopeti Timani. All in all coming together nicely for next year.

Keys now are hooker, 5/8 and 12 .
And of course a Coach !

 

[Tex]

Timani? How many loose forwards do we need?

Right! This has to stop! And now! Can I just point out that there is a difference between resign and re-sign?

Pedantically yours,

Holmes won't wait at the Brumbies forever, backline would be better with him at 10, Beale at 15 and JOC (James O'Connor) at 14.

Holmes is coming home to the force next year. Prior was announced today holmes not far away.
