Greg Holmes comes up every now and then on these threads. But do people realize he’s 36 and now around 4th choice TH at his club.
That happens so often. There is a massive group think issue with the media/fans on Australian players playing overseas. Most people calling for players like Skelton or Fardy haven't watched them play since they left Australia. They read a few articles and regurgitate the same rhetoric.
The Rebels did look after Jordy Reid's rehab for a long time after his contract was finished. Guess that was cause of workplace laws when injured at work.
Rebels have signed Andrew Kellaway. It’s been on the cards for a while
Think it will be a very good signing, you should be pleased. Personally I’m stoked he’s back in Australia.
Sione Tui was never signed by the Rebels. He is now in France playing 2nd or 3rd div pro I believe.not withstanding Kellaway's ability. Why is this a good signing ? they have DHP, Maddocks, Hodge who can all play FB/wing; Koirobete, Tupou, English and Sione Tui for wingers. I dont see the need for another outside back at the Rebels. Magnay also played on the wing this year although he is more a 13 I'll grant you.
"How do I say this without being controversial? I don't know if the pathway in Australia is what it used to be. And I think the more people can get out and get away from what it is, I think it's beneficial."
