    Aussie Player Exodus

    yes, he plays in the mid north coast NSW competition, and plays a little bit of 1stXV. While a good achievement at 16 the competition certainly does not set the world on fire in terms of its standard. He certainly wont be playing 1stXV at Rotorua Boys and my belief is the mother is trying to...

    John I Dent Cup 2023

    they should plug the gap in the shute shield where the Hunter dont have teams. For example the Emus 1stXV could play in the 3rd grade comp etc... whilst EMUs colts 1stXV play in the 2nd grade colts comp. This could work until they build up the strength to go back to 1st Grade in Sydney where...

    its actually a massive difference, was a 14 year old kid as opposed to Adults who moved specifically for financial reasons.

    Vunivalu was an adult when he moved to Melbourne, did all his schooling in NZ. He cannot possibly have the same connection to Australia. Marika did not move to Australia until he was an adult again no deep connection to Australia, completely different to your pococks, samu's hardwicks etc...

    Hardwick moved to Aus as a kid and was schooled here, Lynagh again different kettle of fish as he has a connection to Aus. I am talking about players with no connection to Australia and purely playing for Australia based on where they are contracted.

    not at all Pocock was here since he was a kid and not parachuted in as an adult with little or no attachment to Australia other than a pay cheque. Which is fine, but play for Fiji...

    Settle down mate, a very simple thing to say that we dont need to continue to import players from the Pacific Islands - as an example Vunivalu offers no benefit to Australian rugby, we should be working with players that have been here be it born or from a very young age rather than poaching...

    how is it ignorant? I have no issue with PI heritage players no issue with players that have been here since they were kids or born here i am simply asking why do we need to keep importing players from Island nations like Vunivalu. I may have worded what i was trying to say wrong....

    Wallabies v Portugal, RWC Pool C, Mon 2 Oct 2.45AM

    Why? I am simply saying we should stop importing players like Vunivalu, we have enough talented players that we dont need to continue to import players from Fiji etc... everything doesnt need to be deemed a racist comment

    Frost one of our best, Koroibete has been a distaster, he cant pass, misses tackles and dies with the ball far too often.
