The injury happened at training whilst barefoot

Sounds like a classic OTP injury to me. On the piss.

No, even worse. My mail is that it is a workplace injury.

Storm warnings for CQ. Might be a wet one. There have been a few instances of the Gladstone Rugby club getting kicked off Marley Brown oval at very short notice due to rain and it is believed that certain people in the local admin who are very staunch league people take great delight in sabotaging Union at any excuse. I wonder if/when they ring Brad Thorn up to let him know the field is off limits and he’ll need to move the game to a local high school.

Although it should be noted this is the second time the local mayor has reached into council coffers to support local union, so he is certainly doing his bit.

Edit : not that I am complaining about the rain though

Geez if thats true - what was broken glass, and enough to sever tendons, doing out around Ballymore? I guess it could be argued you should always wear shoes...

Severed tendons obviously will repair themselves but in tall timber like Woods (excuse the pun) it can take time and not heal properly depending how handled. How liable will the QRU be if he doesn't come back full strength? Loss of income etc. Seems very irresponsible depending on circumstances.

Could have also been at the beach. A pretty common venue for some preseason training.

Don’t know if it’s been mention but to days trial is being live streamed on Rugby.com and at the Reds.

Jeez, I thought potential employees were the only things generally found in the Ballymore car park.

Obviously hanging around trying to snag a coaching interview..........

Matt Gicquel named in the Rebels side to play the Reds.

Wish we still had him but we can't have everyone.

 

[Purce]

Anyone else having issues with the stream?

Re: Reds v Rebels stream: Dallan Murphy has been brilliant so far in commentary with his analysis.

Actually, not so much. Mostly, they need some help.

woah, this seasons Reds home jersey looks a bit left field

In that case it could have been Tualima sprinkling it about and hiding behind a post.

 

[TSR]

Interesting that Paenga-Amosa started in Gladstone, not Mafi.

Maybe he is going to give Mafi the start in Dalby to give them both a crack at winning the starting spot, or maybe the pecking order has changed.

Thoughts on the game anyone?
