Surely there is only one JB. His footwork from the back would have been phenomenal though

Looks like a good schedule that’s an easier July series than most, would rather play Arg away than SA, interesting there going back to Homebush to play NZ given we hardly ever win there, the July 6 Wales test is at Allianz

As you can see @Members Section under the new agreement it’s 2 bledisloes not 3

Definitely a better schedule, but I'm still burnt and we have a lot of questions around around 9,10,15 and not due to depth which generally doesn't result in a lot of wins when that's the case.

We also don't have a coach yet even though they'd be doing nothing right now.

I reckon this is a real good nov euro holiday, spend a week in france between the 1st & 2nd test

Long service leave due in October next year. How much does it take to convince significant other that we should hit Europe?
My better half did Europe in her Long Service Leave by herself last year (took it in between changing jobs), left me with the kids. What's the likelihood of my taking some of my Long Service Leave in Nov next year to watch some footy by myself?

I think there's two chances - none and Buckley's

(edited because of auto correct confused the shortening of Long Service Leave with a footy player)

Husband wants to do it but not sure about whether we should next year. Hopefully this might convince him. Saying that, he wouldn’t care too much if I did it by myself.

It like when I go to syd to 1 test a yr "we can stay on the harbour in double bay" replace with "we can stay in paris for a week"

It was reported a while ago that the NSW government were pitching a deal to get a Bled in Sydney every other year; but that might have been before it moved to a 2 game series

As the 'premier' home fixture it will always go to the highest bidder.

So, we play Ireland out of the window. That means no Skelton at least. Any other certainties not available?

Does Ireland have people playing in European teams who are likely non-starters?
