I'm was being partially tongue in cheek but there's some truth there. There are fellas who dabble in a bit of league of legends/valorant/CSGO that are pretty handy on the field, have a Stan subscription, and went on tour for the RWC.
But your blokes who are throwing down a couple grand on a...
Not worried about e-games. To put it euphemistically, the demographic that is willing to spend money on that was never inclined toward sport or leaving the house in general to begin with. They won't cannibalize much from existing sports.
I don't really think we have a choice on whether or not...
You're not wrong, Petaia has all the clubs in his bag. The problem with him is that he doesn't employ them consistently or effectively. All the respect in the world to Jock Campbell but he isn't the athlete Petaia is, and yet the Reds feel more settled with Jock at 15.
I think you get the best...
Suli shouldn't be starting for the Reds let alone the Wallabies. I think Wright has to get the nod over Petaia because it's unfair to keep picking on potential when it hasn't worked out while Wright has been delivering actual results this entire season.
Easts Prem grade shirts with the subtle light blue stripes inside the dark blue stripes might be the best looking ones in the comp.
Hope they gave the designer free tins for the year.
Yeah there's no point in sending a 19 year old out to get smashed by 28 year olds in their athletic prime.
They'll just go into survival mode and avoid taking risks as opposed to being given the freedom to experiment, make correctable mistakes, and develop some flair that will ultimately result...
It's possible to be upset that the Rebels are gone without taking every discussion of pragmatic player movements personally.
There's no opportunity for another chance at a Melbourne team if Victorian talent isn't given some sort of professional/Wallaby opportunity.
that is a fairly scary amount of achilles injuries, assuming it's not just a statistical outlier could it be something related to the way the Tahs condition or manage training load?
The Tahs have outfoxed us all and will run out 13 men while using Sua'ali'i to play wing, loose forward, and flyhalf simultaneously.
His contract is practically a bargain when you view it as paying for 3 players.
Folau has one opinion that makes him radioactive. It's not the fact that he holds that opinion because there are plenty of others in rugby that do, it's that he's vocal about it.
Eddie just did the sporting equivalent of crashing the Titanic into the iceberg after telling anyone who noticed the...
Get "man on the street" type content posting ladies days, prop races, funny sideline chat, and weird operators at test matches. That stuff is funny as even if you have no idea what the difference between a loosehead and a tighthead is, but it's a nice gateway drug into the game.
I think at least in Australia, the issue is that you're going to be fighting heaps of cultural inertia within the game. Most guys are of a very middle class mindset, keep a low profile, and won't say anything outlandish to the media. There are a fair few Super Rugby players in the first 15 for...
Donaldson isn't that egregious of a pick given the competition.
White would be great on a slow-paced team that runs off the 9, has a forward pack that dominates set pieces, and tall backs that are comfortable in the air. The Wallabies in their current form are not that team. Tate Mcdermott or...
Could also try a move to France. Maybe 2 years of higher intensity rugby in arguably the most professional league in the world forces him to settle at one position and irons out his inconsistency before he returns home.
It feels like his career is at an inflection point right now.
