Private ownership and the Melbourne Rebels hasn’t worked well over the years…

2010-2013: Harold Mitchell
2013-2015: VRU/RA
2015-2017: Imperium Group
2017-current: VRU

I'd say current is RV/Vic Government. Any potential sale would have to jump some pretty high hurdles to keep VicGovt happy. Dare I say they'd keep a stake in the team.

Such a random selection of teams to buy into. Next thing they will take a stake in the mighty Newport Breakers…

To be fair you need to find the right owner. We shouldn’t sell the club just because someone is interested, private ownership has worked in sport globally and also failed globally so we need to weigh it up

Only 32 so perhaps 3 to come or is that “the number” this year
Force have named 36, the Reds, Brumbies and Drua 35, and the Tahs count is 30 or 37, depending on the source so it's not particularly clear. 3 more is probably a good bet though.

5 props looks awefully light. So assume another prop for sure must be in the wings

With Lewy Holland dropped from the 7s program is he going to have a run around for the Stanthorpe Gremlins or is he having a crack else where?
