Waratahs vs Cheetahs Super Rugby-R5 2013

I can't hold myself back on this one. Their sole designated kick chaser for the past few seasons had been speared from the squad.

Yet another issue Bruce.

Interesting to speculate on who's going to take up the role of designated scapegoat if they continue to under-perform.

I think that they may have this role allocated out on a rotation policy.

A squad of 30 players should be able to see the season out without the need for too many to have to back up as Duty Scapegoat too often.

 

[I like to watch]

I think he is more likely to draw a line through a few players and not use them. than to rotate them as scapegoats over the season.
There could be a few guys getting called up this year.

Why would you need to? It is all clearly Michael Foley's fault.

Haha. Interesting indeed.
It certainly won't be a Randwick player!

FTFY.

Sekope Kepu is the only Randwick player in the 35 man squad.

No surprise why they contested the grand final last year.

Belly, I was giving you more credit for sarcasim and cynical posts with your original post that there wouldn't be a wicks duty scapegoat, before this post from you.

Hard for some to believe that the Wicks have almost 0 rep players for the Tahs, and I can't think of too many that are in Ponies, Rebels or Force either.

It is little wonder that they finished where they did in last years SS comp, and had the coaching staff clean out that they did.

Be aware that Drew Mitchell's Balmain registration seems to have a tacit agreement to play for the Wicks when available. So total is technically 2 wickers.

And Schmoo has been the duty scapegoat for the week before last. It seems to have had the desired effect on him for the Blues game.
