    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    It depends if you look at it as $31 or as $15. Given I’d probably have Stan anyway to stream I think $15 is good for rugby and the olympics. Plus tennis which I also watch.

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    That would certainly be worth it. Without question. It’s not a very expensive service at the present time and it’s about to become invaluable as I simply cannot withstand seeing 5000 ads for mafs.

    Round 9 : Reds v Highlanders

    That Reds team list surprises me with how strong it remains. Pinch points will be at 9 and the reserves obviously. Kalani has an opportunity here to break out and potentially improve his career in the long run. McDermott has been the most crucial backline factor to wins in recent years above...

    League Targets

    I’m sure he’s a great bloke yadda yadda but I just can’t take this dude seriously. He represented us at the Comm Games ffs. Ponga said the same thing and it seems so dumb to me. Thorn a little different given he never stated he couldn’t imagine playing for the Wallabies like he’s allergic to it...

    Wallabies 2024

    It could also tank the value of Aus players in the overseas market if foreign teams think their marquee signing is a chance of missing a third of their domestic season. RA could increase squad sizes and pressure foreign domestic teams to release players that are even remotely a chance.

    Australian Rugby / RA

    Even MotoGP is kind of boring if you become used to Isle of Man TT as an example. To me, I’m a bigger fan of the cars in F1 than the drivers. Seeing them in the flesh is akin to seeing Taylor Swift or something. WRC used to be really strong and made the nightly news bulletin on a semi regular...

    Wallabies 2024

    For the Wallabies? He’s capped already.

    Queensland Reds 2024

    My only memories of Wright (the greater) in Gold is jumping in the line out and making easy metres off link play. Both things we really need. To be sure though, back row will be congested this year. Could we see a pick for captaincy reasons that sees Wright in a la Ben Mowen (not a dig at all...

    Wallabies 2024

    I have such a clear memory in my mind of Deans singing Advance Australia Fair on the pitch (for some reason) before a game. The first of many questions I would ask him if I was in the same elevator would be if that hurt or if he was able to do the mental sums required to make it worth it. Second...

    Queensland Reds 2024

    I’ve been quite happy with Wilson. He himself plays a higher risk game which does see him get smashed in the tackle somewhat but we need to put that in the context of the phase of play that follows and I think he is recycling the ball very well at the breakdown. The whole team is doing this much...

    Queensland Reds 2024

    I really hope Tom Wright isn’t considered for higher honours this year. He’s one of the best Super players every year and every year he has a brain explosion in Gold and gets dropped. His Wallaby portfolio is long enough to leave him out based on a reasonable expectation that he won’t perform...

    Ballymore Redevelopment

    I thought that the women’s game being relocated to Ballymore was a condition of the QLD tax funded contribution whereas I don’t recall any rugby being part of the funding for Moore Park. Therefore the tax payer would rightly be angrier should RA not use the Ballymore facility.

    Ballymore Redevelopment

    Such a good point. Not many people realise that aside from having better coffee and art galleries than Melbourne we also have better street culture. It makes perfect sense. waiting for Slim to take the bait.

    Round 6: Reds v Brumbies

    Swain starting so Reds only need to stay within 3 points late for the win.
