Is Dennis out just for this week? Injury wise. Realise that Hoiles is unlikely to be a permenant replacement.
So do you think that the Captaincy might be a step to far for Hooper this weekend? Would you have prefered to see AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)?

You'd assume Dennis will be back next weekend as it was hoped he'd be right for this game (he was named despite the injury. He just didn't recover in time).
I don't think the captaincy will be any issue for Hooper. He'll be awesome!

Slightly off thread, but do I remember reading somewhere that Gen Blue are playing this-arvo at Millner??

With a serious lack of drinking options in and around ANZ thinking of going to the Members bar pre game. Only thing is that its location isn't very described in the members mail, is anyone on here able to tell me where in the stadium it is? Or even what gate to go in to get into it?

did Gallen essentially tell Fifita that you have to pull your head in and not be a dickhead when playing union?

on L1, once you walk into the members entrance to the stadium, there are stairs at either end leading to 2 terrace bars. There is better food, but the beer is the same shit.
I usually drive to Homebush and save my drinking for when I get home (force v brumbies will be on). Mid strength beer in plastic cups? I'll pass

I think the crowd is expected for less than 25k... Playing the game at moore park tonight would be an absolute nightmare logistics wise because of the mardi gras parade.

I can't remember how many more years it is but the agreement with ANZ to have 2 games out there isn't going to change for at least 1 more year. Everyone will be cheering when that agreement is over.
Kinda glad it's not amid the Mardi Gras mess.

The Tahs will need to be pretty confident of excellent crowds at the SFS if they're going to forgo the guaranteed money from ANZ stadium.

Bucketing down out this way at present. Not good for running rugby.

2015 should be the last year of the current agreement as it has been raised that taking a Tahs Super Rugby home game to a regional centre couldn't happen until 2016. So a game which has been allocated to Homebush could be played in Newcastle or another venue as the Tahs admin wouldn't be game (mad?) enough to take another fixture away from the SFS.

Exactly.
I can't remember the numbers but it's something like Tahs get $12K for 10K people at ANZ and less per 10K at SFS.
What is annoying is the discussion about SFS vs ANZ gets brought up every ANZ game, by people (not forum people) assuming the Tahs have picked ANZ for fun.
I really wonder how many of them actually attend games at SFS or ANZ.
A regional game would be a fun road trip for supporters!

The Tahs web site has been updated to show the full squad of 35. It appears the last two spots have gone to Hoiles and Roach. No sign of "The Hill" anywhere to be seen.
