I work in the ad game, strange hours is one of the perks / pitfalls.

SMH this morning reporting that Joe Tomane is going to re-sign with the Brumbies.

If this is so, more disappointment for the Reds and their recruitment for next year. Also think their dealings with KH and JOC (James O'Connor) will end in further disappointment. Wouldn't be surprised if KH is just upping his asking price to return to League, and that's really where I think he will finish up next year, while I also think the only way the Reds will get JOC (James O'Connor) is on JOC (James O'Connor)'s terms. Don't think there will be any long term commitment by JOC (James O'Connor) and if that proves to be the case even the rusted on JOC (James O'Connor) supporters on this site will lose faith in him.
Glad to see Joe stay with the Brumbies if that is the case.

Well money and a chance to be near to family are the two main ones

Prediction 4 is the most likely to get up.

Whilst not signing Tomane is disappointing it might tell us a bit about who the reds have signed.
So provided Tomanes main goal is to be a starting player in super rugby, at the brumbies if he wants to start he needs to be ahead of either Speight or McCabe.
At the reds he would need to be ahead of who? Shipperly, davies are gone, he's a better player than Turner at the moment so that wouldn't be a problem.
But if the Reds have signed JOC (James O'Connor) and Ioane as is rumored, then I can see why Tomane would choose to stay where he is....

Kerevi probably will, but I'd think they might be hesitant to give Kuridrani a full contract until they've seen him play at super level. Hopefully he gets some time in the remaining games this season.

Tomane fit will start with Speight on the wings for the Brumbies. McCabe be fullback, 12 or bench..
PS Id have him over Digby these day and Screw JOC (James O'Connor).

Could we have McCabe please Tomikin? We'd treat him ever so well.

He's probably a more consistent proposition than Digby these days I agree. But signing for a different team is a huge gamble - new coach, new city, new apartment etc. So he'd want a bit of surety before doing it and if he's up against Digby and O'Connor he's not guaranteed a spot (although I do think he would start more often than not).

Tom Murday seems to be on contract with the Auckland Blues. Currently playing with them at the World Club 10's. I thought he was back in Canberra with the Vikings. Looks like he may not be on the Reds Shopping list for next year.

I'm not sure how the contracting system works over there between ITM Cup and S15. If you look at the Blues website Murday is listed there but he hasn't debuted. I think if a player is currently playing for northland perhaps it's used as a wider training squad or eps even for the Blues. Either way I couldn't find any reliable info on who he's actually contracted to and for how long so I'll still hold out hope a guy like him is on the shopping list still.
