I did mean to write something, but I’d heard the Luke Jones Returning rumour before, so didn’t want to get my hopes up again.

If the Tahs should lose this week against the Highlanders they will be just one point ahead of us. You would have to think they will pick up wins against the Reds, Sunwolves and Brumbies for at least 12 points.
The game against the Tahs could be for top spot in the conference.
A slim chance but still a chance to finish top and get a home final.

Luke Jones was coming back this season until the Force cut. I'd expect he will replace Parling in the squad. Hopefully plays more at 6 than lock.

Yep, this is my problem too. Where do you play him?
He’d be a natural swap for Parling, but he could also be a useful 6/8 player too. We’ve got depth in 4/5/6/8, so plenty for Dave to consider.
Having said, would love a bit of Merlin magic back at AAMI Park.

It would certainnky improve our restarts. He had awesome skills taking a high ball overhead.
Not sure where he will fit in our cap. the ARU is not going to cover the players cut as a result if the force farce forever.

Jones and RHP would be my 4/6 options on/off the bench, with Cottrell starting at 6. With Mafi gone may see Timani at 8 again or Leota if he ever recovers from the knee injuries. Fainga'a at 7 (always and every week) with Hardwick as the bench/starting option. But hard to leave Philip out of the 23 also. Nice dilemma for Wessels if it happens that Jones does come back.

Tayler Adams going back to Southland for Mitre 10 Cup.
Not sure what that means for next year though.

It means that NZ have better talent spotters than Australia. I believe he should have already had some time in the 23 this year, if the Rebels season implodes over the next few weeks then hopefully he will be given crack in the last three games. I like JD but his form has wilted somewhat when the going got tough.

Might be just for the domestic seasons, esp with Jack Deb and McGregor available for NRC, there would be a strong chance he would go an entire season without playing any pro or semi pro rugby. But then again might be a sign he is going
it's a pity he couldn't be released to play for the Eagles or Rams or whichever Sydney teams are around.

No it's not, Dewar shield is benefitting from having Rebels playing in the comp

He's talking about during the NRC when there's no club rugby (i.e. as opposed to him going back to NZ).

I'd suspect Mason and Hegarty would be lined up for the NSW spots, esp with 1 less team this year (well rumored to be)
Quade and Stewart will/should be the QLD one's
Hawera or JGH for the Vikings
JD or McGregor for Rising
Force - Deegan
Could stack up to be the best quality NRC yet.

I think crumbs is heading over to top league, so they'd want him for pre-season. Doubt you will see him in NRC.

No top league next year.
All Aussies will be looking for game time elsewhere, McMahon already linked to the Reds.

Is Adams a NZer? If so,any move back to NZ is likely to have the same effect of extending his Aus eligibility period as Speight experienced a few years ago.

Yes, I believe he is.

He's Auckland born and bred, NZ Under 20 rep. Missed out on a contract a few years ago so moved to Sydney - reading the NZ articles it sounds like he's back in NZ for good.

He is no longer at the Rebels. Free to play wherever he wishes. Clearly decided the Marlins a better option than the Unicorns before his UK sojourn.
