Get your boots ready lads. Ease off the beers for a few weeks. We're needed out on the park.

Fox sports is reporting that Aussie 7s Henry Hutchinson has signed with rebels 2018

 

[GoMelbRebels]

Panda seems pretty certain which team is to be axed:

It's not good.

But it's much better than the alternative.

72 hours of Force v Rebels deathmatch to decide which state gets a proper kick in the balls and a see-you-later from the soulless hacks in St Leonards.

Should be a great week.

If they get rid of us I'll become a Sunwolves member. If the ARU take my team - no $$$ for you, ARU!

 

[Tex]

If the ARU ditch Melbourne, they can kiss me goodbye as a paying participant of Wallabies tests in the future.

Why isn't Cox there at the meeting to cast his vote or have his say?

 

[KevinO]

The Rebels go, the ARU will never see a cent from me again. Would not even buy tickets if Ireland was touring.

I would stop watching Super Rugby, just stick with European Rugby. For all their flaws they seem to know how to run multi able competitions with out any issues.

God look how long the Italian sides have been poor for but no body cuts them, Connacht went from whipping boys to Pro12 champs and got robbed not making the Quarters of Europe as well.

ARU, NZRU, SANZAR and all broadcasting partners can go get stuffed. We did not want the expansion in the first place, now we are loosing a side so you can keep a team that has no right to compete in this competition.

The votes belong to the VRU as far as I can tell.

I don't know if he has an agreement with them that he gets to direct the vote that relates to the Super Rugby licence.

I was of the understanding that the relationship between the VRU and the Rebels wasn't always peachy. Maybe someone closer to the core might be able to comment?

Maybe not but they have a common interest here.

I just don't understand why we all give a f**k if Cox is off on holidays without a care in the world - if it was my business and I stood to lose it I would want to be in the meeting not my useless underling.
