Don’t believe either are playing. Can find them on LinkedIn with pretty normal sounding jobs.
The good ones - not sure if it's the 'best' team, but I imagine it'd be pretty exciting viewingI don't know what kind of drugs Rugby Pass interns are consuming...

Look I’ll concede that I realise the positions between the codes aren’t interchangeable but isn’t Cleary a halfback, or a dummy half or something? And Murray is a prop right? And you’d never put a league convert at 8, but I’ll take that if you switch him with Valetini. Ill agree a team like that might even get a few mungoes watchingThe good ones - not sure if it's the 'best' team, but I imagine it'd be pretty exciting viewing
The number of teams is debatable, it is only a preliminary project. Tonight we almost lose against a poor Landers side so I'm not sure what is the magic number.10:5 is ridiculous. We’d destroy them.
8:6 is a good start with free movement and no restrictions.
Examples from last night Qwerty? And not just the type of errors every player commits in any game, the really atrocious ones that qualify as "brain dead"?Not sure what to make of Tom Wright. So fucking talented as a runner but just keeps doing brain dead stuff that is so costly at Test level / Test referees.
I thought Wright was good last night, and Toole is exciting. But how good was Frost?Examples from last night Qwerty? And not just the type of errors every player commits in any game, the really atrocious ones that qualify as "brain dead"?
He has improved by reducing this from his game, but he still demonstrates some pretty stupid stuff occasionally.Not sure what to make of Tom Wright. So fucking talented as a runner but just keeps doing brain dead stuff that is so costly at Test level / Test referees.
The ball was already in touch and had been handled by Wright so there was no chance for a quick throw by the Canes.
You’re correct about this but it has been caused by nobody other than Tom Wright. It’s no different to how a lot of Tahs fans are feeling about Ben Donaldson.Throwing the ball away after it went into touch. Just like any of the miriad of players in every game who kick it to the shithouse after play is pulled up for a knock on or a penalty. The ball was already in touch and had been handled by Wright so there was no chance for a quick throw by the Canes. Had absolutely zilch impact on the game. And after Mitchell's YC/RC for doing that many years ago, not one referee has had the brain explosion to take any similar action since.
The tackle on Aumua was penalty worthy but again of a similar level to many others not using arms or around the head area in nearly every game.
I'd suggest there is a bandwagon effect showing itself in some comments about Wright.
Wright has speed and x factor …. I think he is bloody great. Despite what some critics say, he’s a Wallaby for a reason.Throwing the ball away after it went into touch.

Huh? They can still do a quick throw, a French referee in a Test would yellow him for that 99% of the time. It’s just constant dumb stuff by him, atm he’s still in my 23 but we have Kellaway, Korobiete and Petaia who don’t do that dumb shit - especially Kellaway so he’s not a definite starter for me yet.Throwing the ball away after it went into touch.
