An aside, but why wouldn't you simply say Leibniz?

So the new directors propose RA grant them a license in order that they can pursue legal action against the RA. That is somehow meant to be better than the old directors pursuing RA? It's absurd. The thought that RA will sign off on it is simply ridiculous.

Just bizarre. While my support for RA is begrudging and my desire to see not just a 5th team but a team in Melbourne is paramount, as a fan I expect RA to reject this out of hand. Go away Rebel directors and return with some basic common sense.

Ah, the optimist.

BR - I just worry that we have hit bottom, seriously bottom. I have no idea where things go from here or how effective our tools are for the job (I have my suspiscions). But we just have to stop self-damage.

Have we met a bar that is close to untarnished and adequate?

Unfortunately, you have to go to war with the Old Boys that you have, not the ones you want. There is little choice here from my perspective, we get behind Waugh and Herbert. And try to proceed in a unified manner.

Didn't mention them! Remiss of me. Kalani was assured though delivery somewhat slow - I'd put it to the Defensive ruckwork (on the edge of slowing inappropriately) but he was accurate, played the game plan, and lightning in his runs. A formidible lynchpin for the team. Incredible that Werchon...

How good is it to be thinking like this after beating a Kiwi team that has not been kept scoreless since 1996! And we haven't beaten since (can't find the stat). Yep better please. Right now, I know this season has been up and down, but I'm definitely enjoying the Kiss impact and finding the...

Geez this conversation got weird. 1. It does seem a contradiction when major games are scheduled in clash with amateur playing rugby comps. Especially when there is a supposed reassessment going on by RA to reengage with the grass roots. Certainly not a silly statement by a rugby fan on a rugby...

Nice to see a gind out win with a number of starters unavailabe. Nice progress within the team for the fresh players coming in. Loved how Paisami is travelling, Vunivalu not exactly showing his value but definitely showing his promise. Great to see. Scrum was up to task mostly, lineout not at...

Spoken out loud. :oops:

Still... BPA was a tremendous hooker, his work at the Reds was greatly appreciated. I have wished him all the best to see a "garbo" go to success and then Europe. And we can sure use beefing up our hooker options. But let's see how he goes.

I think they will. Thought the tackled player was dropping and did so after McReight was committed to an action. But I dont think a card raised to red during a game is going to be dismissed easily.

What an utter disappointing mess that was. can we simply drop the bye next year? There was still some impressive handling and skills, but carrying out a game plan seemed optional, pushing forward defence almost non existant and a scrum that could not adjust to (an admittedly dopey) ref. Man...
