Even then it's arguably an afterthought in the one country where league is the dominant code. At least the other countries are competitive in the commonwealth games without importing players born and raised in the one place league is popular.

Why would two clubs with better or equal numbers be "very happy" with Bond's numbers?

Norths have Prem grade, ressies, 3rd grade, and also 4th grade for a few weeks this year plus at least two grades of Colts. Sunnybank have full depth down to 5th grade and 4 grades of Colts.

Some really want to be a nailed-on Prem grade starter instead of a body that shifts between Prem and Ressies depending on the week. It's a bit silly if you're not getting Super Rugby looks if you ask me, but different things make different people happy.

blink twice if there's a man in butcher stripes holding a gun to your head

Depends on how you measure global reach. NBA or cricket could be the biggest based on raw numbers due to China or India, but the premier league probably has the widest geographic distribution of fans.

define "on the nose"

5th grade and 4th grade will still be actively pissed instead of their usual hungover

OTAs already happened and training camp begins for most teams in a week. If he makes a decision on exploring an NFL career it will probably be soon.

Lots of talk about players not being happy with the way training sessions were run among other things.

"Bond is conveniently located with heaps of great atmosphere, they should definitely host more matches" -not a single soul

You don't understand, selling merchandise that appeals to Australian rugby supporters is actually bad. Especially when the previous collection sold out. It must be true because a smattering of NRL/AFL fans who don't even follow rugby said so online.

Absolutely terrible and sad. Was talking about it with a few mates and the insurance payout is not nearly what anyone would value the use of their limb at. Hopefully the wider community comes together and helps Jordan out.

You'd hate to call UQ's performance a choke, but that's what it was.

Can we not knock off one of the few music festival venues Brisbane has? We don't need to stick a white elephant of a stadium in the showgrounds on behalf of a couple relatively unfollowed sports. King St and that north part of the valley/south part of bowen hills will develop organically on its...

sounds like someone is gearing up to apply for a postgrad Med slot

Honestly in a dream world where RA has unlimited money for infrastructure upgrades, I'd never let a single Wallaby or SRP (Super Rugby Pacific) contracted player touch artificial turf. Especially given that most are using their regular boots with FG moulded studs on it.

You've got Wallaroos and contracted 7s players starting alongside women who have never played rugby before. The numbers aren't there to expand more at the moment.

He's 35 and came back into the demands professional rugby relatively recently. A lot of the time ruptures are associated with load increases. Could be a variety of things though or just bad luck on a background of risk factors.

Even from an injury perspective, his hamstring issues seem to precede his union career. Obviously we're just talking heads on the internet, but I would love to know what the initial prognosis and performance testing prior to his signing showed compared to where he's at now. It seems like he's...
