Queensland operative Rugby Reg doing GAGR a fine public service by ensuring NSFW fans miss the stupid Waratahs playing

My apologies Mr CommBank Stadium.

This should be on the GAGR masthead. "Please note; "local time" for matchday kick-offs means wherever Rugby Rug happens to be at that particular time."

Cridge, born and raised in Christchurch, attended Christchurch Boys High School and represented New Zealand U20’s before moving north to sign for the Hurricanes under Chris Boyd, making his Super Rugby debut for the side during their 2016 Championship winning season.
Cridge – who cuts an imposing figure at just over 200cm – further strengthens Darren Coleman’s depth at lock, following the return of Jed Holloway for the 2022 season.
After a couple of seasons of playing provincial rugby in New Zealand, Cridge was excited to be playing Super Rugby again.
“The last two years I’ve had off I’ve had an itch to play Super Rugby, so to get another chance here at the Waratahs is something I’m definitely going to make the most of,” Cridge said.
“There’s a good group of lads here, everyone gets around each other and stays really connected. No-one is bigger than the team and it’s a great environment to be a part of and I can’t wait for the season to start.”
After an impressive season for Hawke’s Bay in the ITM Cup in 2021 where he was awarded the team’s best forward award, Waratahs’ Head Coach Darren Coleman saw enough of the big lock to bring him to the Waratahs.

Must be close, but some of those games last year after Gordon was injured would have to be the trough value for Wallabies caps.

Take out Bell, Swinton and Gordon and I think the caps = 0. Can we count Pietsch's caps in sevens to make it a bit more respectable?
