    Rebels v Chiefs, Rd 12 @ AAMI Park

    Crowd affected as it was too dangerous for single males to venture to the Rebels/Chiefs match with all those Cougars running loose in the precinct post the Ricky Martin concert .....

    Big change to eligibility rules

    Re Dan 54 regarding suggested selectors position in Europe..... I'm in ! Think a good base possibly the Loire Valley in France ... I'll do my utmost to source and monitor all available talent across Europe . And I'll spend the remaining time keeping tabs on the Wallaby candidates as well . Oh...

    Rebels v Chiefs, Rd 12 @ AAMI Park

    Well done Rebels you closed a tight one out ...hope McMahon is OK . Line out and clean out looked a lot better with Jones back , Front Row did well and I think Debrecini thinking about joining the circus performing long range kicking demonstrations .

    The impending Hooper vs Pocock Dilemma

    Re TOCC;s line up ...4 & 5 ? Hobbits in the the second row ? The Desolation of the Line-out ... if they could win any scrums would be explosive in broken play but would love to see that line up in the 7's with a couple of blistering backs .

    Wallaby 31 players for 2015 RWC

    I think the razzle dazzle shimmy from Beale just doesn't work as well in the tight games , should probably try a few straight bursts just to mix it up a little . In broken play he can be dynamite .

    The impending Hooper vs Pocock Dilemma

    Duelling banjo's were the least of their worries in that movie.....

    Round 12 Blues v Force Auckland - Battle of the Basement

    I thought the "Battle of the Basement" was Don Burrows vs Ricky May ( A jazz institution in Sydney back in the day )

    Highlanders v Sharks, Rd 12, 2015

    OMG ... Highlanders were clinical and driven and entertaining ...look out !

    Brumbies v Waratahs, round 12, Friday 1 May

    We'll take the points ! ....I think the Glimmer Twins put it best "You cant always get what you waaant but if you try sometimes you get what you need " . Well played in a hard fought encounter from both teams . Jackson's inability to call our defence of the maul was embarrassing to say the least...

    The Pulverisation of Australian Rugby

    Am I dreaming .. We seem to be getting increased press coverage for the Super 15 vs previous years in FTA news & radio reports ...has Bill Pulverised his marketing dept into action (and I mean about the games not the indiscretions)?

    SchoolBoy Blog Articles

    Would it be possible or feasible to merge schools rugby programs for the fringe schools who are struggling for numbers and maybe add some resources to make a merged team a more attractive proposition ?

    Matt Giteau

    What a crap thread header !!!.... The "Matt Giteau Dilemma" or the "Matt Giteau Experience" (apologies to Hendrix) would be more fitting ?

    Waratahs v Rebels - ANZ - Anzac Day 2015

    Thought it was going to be a blow out after the first 20 min , I think the Rebels had a sharp reality check running out without Jones (who seems to cover a lot of ground on the defensive stuff ) and to their credit regrouped and toughed it out as a unit . Horne did tremendously well for a guy...

    Ideas for Australian Rugby Union

    I don't disagree with what you re saying ...I am making the point that in order to move forward in a considered fashion we need to know exactly what resources we have and how we currently use those resources . I was particularly interested in how we were engaging into all schools and junior...

    Reds v Hurricanes Round 11 (ANZAC Round)

    If ever there was a game for Horwill , Simmons & Co to draw a line in the sand it's this one ...expecting another big one from Liam and JOC (James O'Connor) seems to be playing his way into some serious form ... acid should be on Karmichael to lift ....The canes are the benchmark ...go get'em boys ...Reds in an...

    Ideas for Australian Rugby Union

    I waded through the 2014 annual report ...not a bad read , however I can't help feeling we may be missing the point on engagement with the grass roots (in particular state schools)_ . I would love to see a breakdown of clinics and visits by Wallaby , Super 15 players & NRC , coaching staff etc...

    Wallaby 31 players for 2015 RWC

    I think Kane Douglas is out for at least 3 months following back surgery ....Maybe we can start a rock thread and pick Brian Jones , Mick Taylor and Bill Wyman for the next Stones tour (Brian via a séance or holygram).

    Brumbies v Rebels, Round 10 @ GIO stadium

    Quoted comments were made pre game .... Actually thought Angus had a blinder considering the conditions , the game was a pretty entertaining contest , I didn't mind the rain , the sausage rolls were below average but the chicken burger was good . I thought the Rebels pack stuck to their guns ...

    So reading between the lines did he actually hit his KPI's ? ....if so it was a sensible and noble act .
