Hahaha sorry I forgot the brumbies are flush with backline talent...

I’ll finish with this...........

It’s interesting that the position the Brumbies are possibly light on, is the position JOC (James O'Connor) is playing now, and where you suggest he shouldn’t play............

But the Brumbies don’t need him, and I think they still have a ‘no dickheads’ policy which disqualifies him, and they have a full roster.......... so back to the Tahs.

Like I said before, James O’connor Playing ordinary and out of position is still a walk up start the brumbies, or the tahs for that matter

Talent wise the brumbies need him ALOT, if the reds halfs fire there’s every chance the brumbies will have the worst backline out of the Aus super teams.

Would be pretty damn happy if the tahs threw O’Connor a lifeline for the right price

 

[Slim 293]

The Tahs should sign him.........

Beale, Hunt, and JOC (James O'Connor)......... and Buddy is now at the Swans!

 

[Lindommer]

Not quite a complete roster, Quade's in Melbourne.

If the tahs were to sign players from the premiership (such as Skelton or JOC (James O'Connor)) I'd be interested to see how much they actually play this season. I cant imagine Cheika would want the rebels playing To'omua a heap.

Interesting dynamic this season for all super teams and resting international players.

Is Hunt a definite signing? After Reg sowed the seed of doubt I haven’t read any confirmation. I agree that if Hunt signs then tight 5 is a priority

Papers here had that his house is up for sale a few days ago so he's off somewhere....

Brisbane city coach reported that hunt was a model player for them in last nrc. Tahs are short of quality backs so sign him up on bargain price with strict contract conditions / understanding that last strike he is out.

Hahaha sorry I forgot the brumbies are flush with backline talent...

this is a topic for the Brumbies thread but I think they are more flush than the Tahs or Reds.

With his brand, attitude and all round divisiveness, JOC (James O'Connor) would bring the Brumbies back down to the level of the other Aussie teams if anyone in Canberra had the level of insanity needed to contemplate signing him in the first place.

SS, if you really want to talk up a player who has been poison wherever he plays, please keep third parties out of the discussion.

Yet again was purely talking about his talent, not his personality. If a team passed on him sighting past indiscretions more than fair. But slim saying teams didn’t need his talents as a player was a bit laughable. Tahs, brumbies and reds he is a walk up start

 

[Rugbynutter39]

Personally can’t see any super rugby side chasing JOC (James O'Connor) for the dollars he would command. As equally if Karmichael hunt was going to cost his reds salary i would equally not see value, but for a bargain buy with reds paying fair chunk he seems to me very good business from risk / reward perspective.

It's up for rent. That was the worst article I've ever read.

If Rabbit wants to stay over in the UK with Bids and is happy with the lifestyle he's currently living, I'd say let the kid do it. His performances of late have been quite good. Unless his agents are scratching to make a deal work with any Super Rugby franchise, he's honestly better off staying at Sale. Sale will have a really strong team in the coming years (Strong SH contingent) and are going to end up doing some big things.

Good Brisbane lad by the sounds.

Not really. He'd probably be competing for a wing spot i guess... and if Hunt comes he'd definitely be on the bench.

It was on news.com.au so who knows the accuracy - I've given up on quality journalism there....

Yes the above just reminds us how we are not looking that flash for high quality wingers...or really backs generally

With a few Saffer and Kiwi ingredients mixed in. A lot like the rest of us, but, we've made up our minds who we want to throw our lot in with.

I just meant calling his girlfriend Bids (her nickname) seemed over-familiar.
