I love Nick’s writing. In this case though, as a fan who loves the scrum, this makes me proud to be a Red fan.
There are a shed load of guys to congratulate here, but I’m just going to start and stop with Lillicrap.
Should the Brumbies be alert or alarmed after a Reds redemption?
It is not often that you get a word, or even a shrug out of Queensland Reds coach Brad Thorn before the game. He…

A terrific piece.
“ Angus Blyth and Ryan Smith may be more Ian Gough than Alun-Wyn Jones, more grunt than glitterati, but they outshone their more highly-touted opponents in the second row on the day. ”
Suggests Nasser should be a Wallaby contender sooner rather than later too. Pity about his injury.

Is there a joke I have missed,or does every (GAGR and Roar) rugby forum, ironically typically dedicated to the team he has coached for 4 years, add the "e" to Thorn for no reason whatsoever???

Well, I'll be. No more "e"s from me.

I won’t promise anything as my short term memory and recall for names and how they are spelt is shocking (I think I have always felt a dementure candidate).
Don’t even start on the challenge for me recalling how to spell players with pacific island backgrounds names. That is why abbreviations or use of initials or reference to first names is often useful strategy for me so I don’t get too much stick from the AHD spelling and name nazis on here.

I don't mind the spelling Nazis and think we should make the attempt. What can be irritating is spellcheck changes things on Auto that were right in the first place. "defiant" not "definite:. Worse MY spellcheck is constantly changing "Uru" to "Dru". Which reads as a specific sort of arrogant narcism.
My mis-spelling of Thorn is not one of those.

Ok to set the record straight:
Yeh I do that and a lot of times but reality is I still don’t remember a lot of times as does not stick. And reality is other things are more important to invest time in cf what others may view as a priority as not everyone hard core to put in that repeated effort.
I post on a mobile like a lot of people and if you understand that you see you are actually expecting a lot of effort on my side on a mobile and I think some people need to have more middle ground expectations here. Yes I look up names but am I going to do this for every post.
And lastly I think some people need to remember we are not publishing a media article or reading a carefully prepared press statement on here and as long as people can easily understand the player being talked about does it really matter?
