Wallabies 2024

[Penriff_boy]

All work for a wage is a form of slavery by your calculation. I am tempted to agree only from my own personal experience.

Migrants definitely get exploited more. Australians know their worth and a lot are in unions which protect them.

Thoughts on the potential rumours of Saudi money being the source of funds for the future ARU?

We wouldn't have to worry about negative journalists more than once.

We trade with them and send live Animals over there. So we would be hypocrites to reject it.

Might actually be enough to finally bin the fluffybunnys fully. I basically only still support them because I habitually come on this forum.

That is a very liberal use of the world 'we'.

For Eddie call the lawyers in

When did he start again?

Can we ask for a 12 month probation period for future coaches.......

 

[rugbyAU]

Lol we lost to Italy and watching England vs Samoa no way in the world we would beat Samoa
We all need to accept that we are Tier 2 at this moment

Keep up that attitude and we and we may be

sounds good, unfortunately we can't just buy whole teams like Newcastle in the Premier League

Is there a test scheduled for Qatar or Saudi Arabia?

For the Wallabies?, Fuck no!

Depends where it's coming from. If it's Sheikh Mahommed then it's probably a quasi sponsorship (or even an actual one) with Emirates, and I don't have any issues with that. If the way they run their racing empire is anything to go by they make the investment and outsource/hire the management to people who know how to do it. They like their investments to win.

very different money coming from the uae to the saudi's

 

[Penriff_boy]

ARU should organise a meeting between Eddie Jones and some of the Royals. He knows how to talk. A sponsorship deal, or a game in that part of the world would be very beneficial.

best part about all the moral police is they are probably posting from an iphone

 

[Penriff_boy]

Qatar even has a Rugby Union team. Maybe we could play them in a one off game to generate income and future sponsorship opportunities.

Wallabies in 2024 have a lot on their plate.

Who's 10, Assistant Coaches, Captain, Geopolitics

They have officially scrambled us all.

If I were picking a side right now from fit players, it would look like the following:-

1 Bell, 2 Porecki, 3 Tupou, 4 Philip, 5 Skelton, 6 Hooper, 7 Uru, 8 Valetini, 9 Fines-Leleiwasa, 10 Debreczini, 11 Pietsch, 12 Foketi, 13 Ikatau, 14 Nawaqanitawase, 15 Wright. For 2024, I'd be hoping Ala'alatoa, Frost, Jorgensen and Gordon are all fit for the midyear tests.

Got a Lions series to start preparing for. Debreczini Wright are not the path forward at 10-15.

Having said that I'd like to see Pietsch get a go and Ikitau come back in.

I have a migrant next door to me. He arrived unable to read or write in both English and his own language. He has just retired in his early 60's with more than 40m in the bank. Is it better to have it tough to start or get an easy start in comfort? Most migrants seem to do better than Aussie's by simply working hard and sticking their necks out in their own businesses.

Didn’t think so. So why are these places talked about on this forum?
