If his manager is annoyed, it’s time for a new manager. The current breed of managers circulating the Reds have a lot to be desired. Great to see loyalty to Aus rugby through thick and thin.

It was a joke, I have no idea what his manager is thinking

Hopefully there will be a decent competition in Australia for him to keep playing in!
At this current juncture, Australian rugby union could easily go the way of the UK Super League if they're not careful. Breeding ground for talent, but in the end the best players chase money and fame in other global competitions and we end up with all the old heads looking for some retirement funding to come and fill the empty spots.

Not a bad prediction, 12 months before he actually played there.
clearly you're struggling with isolation at the moment. But Stewart played 12 in NRC in 2017. 2 years before your 'prediction'.

Thanks for the correction, which game did he?
Even so, I think it will carry more water than your "direction of oz rugby" prediction.
Hope isolation isn't effecting your employment too much big fella. Chin up.

Sorry to offend gents, obviously haven't followed Hamish as closely as some on here.
Hope everyone is ok, and not too highly-strung in these unusual times.

You seriously think you are the only one who has traced his career since he was in high school? Your tone in these threads is really frustrating and I'd love for you to do what you do best and inform people about rugby instead of lecture them about your opinions and get into arguments

Come on gents. Let’s focus on where the Reds are moving this year and into 2021. Any updates from anyone inside the camp with respect to return to training and the domestic comp. Reading a bit on the news feeds but the journos usually get it wrong.
BTW Bobby, love your passion AND your predictions. You’re never too far off the pace, but Hamish has played a handful of games at 12 over the past 5 years but not enough to say that was his ideal position, more so he was pushed out there because coaches saw more potential in other 10s.

Must also say I’m bloody glad we have Hamish at Brothers, probably at 12.

I thought we stuck to Hamish too long at 10, but I stressed that our coaching didn’t have the ability to build a decent 10. Goes back to Jake. Hamish was always a tremendous rugby player looking for a position to call his own. I’ve said it before though he’s not a decent 10s A-hole.
OTOH, given a chance to settle at 12, his experience at 10 is nothing other than a complete strength.
I hated losing DP, but I’ve come around to Stewart. He’s already solid at pro level in basically any back position. 12 could be his.

And with JOC (James O'Connor) that makes a handy 10/12 combination for the Brethren.
Not sure how much they will get to play in clubland if the domestic comp gets off the ground .
But with Thor , Wilso , Fraser , Woods , Stewart and JOC (James O'Connor) they would be unbackable if available come finals time.
Yours to lose RR !

I think we all agree that throughout last years NRC and thus far for QLD he has been bloody excellent @ 12.
We may not agree on this however I believe we have found our next long term centre partnership for both QLD and beyond (RWC 2023
)
