Ah, this takes me back. An impressionable teenager in a movie theatre in outback Queensland. The rebellious...
After making team changes galore following their first game of the season, the Rebels have named the same run-on XV they used against the Brumbies last weekend. Coach Rod Macqueen has rewarded his players, deservedly, for their ability to stick to a game plan devised to provide the team’s first Super win....
When you sit down to try to come up with a list of positives for the Rebels to take forward to this week’s game, following the loss to the Waratahs on Friday night there’s really only one standout. They aint playing the Tahs again! So early in the season it is difficult...
The Melbourne Rabble, sorry Rebels, have started their season in the worst way possible – a 43-0...
Super Rugby makes its much anticipated leap into the self-proclaimed ‘sporting capital of Australia’ this Friday night...
Twitter? Are you serious G&GR? It’s enough to have that bloody scrolling thing down the side of...
So sang Billy Idol (well…kinda) and so sang the ARU as they announced that the Melbourne Rebels would be the newest addition to the Australian Rugby professional landscape. MORE teams means MORE games and MORE money. More, more, more indeed. While money in the coffers is the driving force behind the ARU’s...

Ok ok. It’s that time of the year when the talk turns to Origin again. Nah, I don’t mean the Slater, Inglis, Lockyer, Hayne, Kimmorley and co. Sure that State of Origin series is on, but it just happens to coincide with the call for a State of Origin in Rugby Union...
Saturday’s clash between the CA Brumbies and the Otago Highlanders will mark the end of a journey for two outstanding servants to the Brumbies – George Smith and Stirling Mortlock. Smith will most likely be heading to an overseas club, whilst Mortlock will taking up a 3 year contract with the Melbourne...
My first decision when writing this article was whether to end that headline with an exclamation point or a question mark (you will note I opted for neither). For, make no mistake about it, the signing of NRL super star Israel Folau by the Melbourne Rebels and the ARU will have fans...
Each week we here at G&GR select our Wallaby Team of the Week. Rather obviously, this is...
As many readers will have now realised, Green and Gold Rugby has started working together on...
You don’t like saying it of a champion but Father Time has finally caught up with Stirling Mortlock. Like George Gregan, who stayed too long at this level, he just ain’t the player he used to be. He’s lost some pace, is starting to fall off tackles and doesn’t have that dynamism...
