As expected IMO.
I can confirm he is.
Will be looking to return to Melbourne once the contract is up to live on a perm basis. There isn't any specific contract with the Rebels on return but wants to stay in the game
I'm not 100% sure, i'd say alot more likely on a coaching basis than playing, but never rule anything out. At the moment he's focusing on the Japanese season and will look at any opportunities in the coming months.Is he looking to stay in the game as a player, or as a coach?
IMO, he could easily do either. Having him as a lower tier coach who does L/O and gets involved with the Rising would be excellent.
He assisted coaching the Rebels in their game against the Force during the June test window. Maybe seeing what it was like on the other end.I'm not 100% sure, i'd say alot more likely on a coaching basis than playing, but never rule anything out.

Geoff Parling off to Japan for 2019.
Probably the only place he was a certain to start. He will be a massive boost to the rebels
As long as he can fit into our culture he will be a great additionProbably the only place he was a certain to start. He will be a massive boost to the rebels

Rather use salary cap to bolster the backs
Rumours he's going back to the Reds...
You don't keep up with the news?
Pone, only suspended right? I imagine he'll be back for next season
It's probably not in the Rebels best interest to be associated with that sort of character...
He's only a young chap, who hasn't been charges (as far as I can see). We all make mistakes when we're young, you should see some of my haircuts!
It'll be very harsh if he is let go
You can't equate a coward punch with a bad haircut though...
But yes, he hasn't been charged yet..... if he is though I'd say he's screwed (and rightfully so), particularly in light of the Rebels recent cultural issues, and the media spotlight (particularly in Victoria) on coward punches both on and off the footy field.
