Waratahs 2025

[WoodysRFC]

I can’t imagine Donaldson is losing any sleep over leaving the Tahs. He’s currently playing under a quality coach who seems to know how to get the best out of him. And he’s regularly playing 80 mins in his preferred position at 10 in a team with an expansive, attacking game plan which certainly suits Donaldson’s instinctive running game. He’s been great to watch. As has Pietsch. The change is doing them the world of good.

Hes got the perfect game style for injection off the bench, I'd keep him there for the Wallabies.

You could tell JAS was crocked the moment he hobbled off on game 1 in front of where we were sitting. He and the coaches sprouted some bullshit about cramps - but you could tell straight away it wasn't.

I like how an injury keeps a player out for a minimum of a month isnt classed as serious..

Classic Tahs.

Surely, that kind of spin is expected, though...

I think there are accentuous circumstances here. 1) if he wasn't on the contract he's on, and/or 2) it wasn't his first year of rugby, and/or 3) there wasn't a Lions tour this year, and/or 4) it was any other Waratahs centre or outside back, he'd probably strapped up and playing.
