Agree, the only position imo where he could become a top liner is fullback in the Roger Gould mode. Cannon boot and fairly good all rounder without the tackle busting you need at 12/13 or express pace you need out wide. I would've been playing him there for years to be honest, runs a pretty good...

Brumbies also have 3 players you wouldn't exactly call local products..... Murray Douglas Scotland Solomone Kata NZ via Tonga Toni Pulu NZ So which rules were you referring to when you said "the Reds & Brumbies are the only true clubs. Let them have their own rules?"

Scott Malolua 26Age 86kgWeight 178cmHeight Biography Scott Malolua will be looking to build upon the experience he gained last year ahead of the 2020 Super Rugby season. Malolua was brought into the St.George Queensland Reds squad during the 2019 pre-season as injury cover for fellow...

Agree, I'd have him in front of Douglas too actually.. however he played most of his rugby last decade...

There you go, fixed for you... no problem, my pleasure! ;)

I think considering KHunt, Petaiai, JOC (James O'Connor) and Folau are all out of the current selection frame, a guy like AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) gives you good backup at OC plus back 3. Who really missed out because of this selection? He probably wouldn't be in the frame with everyone fit and available but you know he'll do a...

I actually think any of the Tahs, Rebs or less likely the Brumbies can win the conference. Tahs most likely due to their very settled lineup and consistency. Whilst losing the big winger means making up for his 15 tries, adding AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) and Hunt to the backs will add a lot more starch to the...

In a perfect world we would just need to add a Lukhan T or clone, return Big Taquele N into the squad and with Tom Robertson fully fit they could be serious title contenders.

Be interesting to see how the big fella goes.... call me cynical, but I recall the tahs going down this path not that long ago with old mate Hendrik 'Dud' Roodt. Anyway, on the assumption that we will also be confirming the acquisition of K Hunt + AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper), the backline looks pretty solid with some...

I think it will be a bonus for the tahs to have K Hunt on the books, adds a lot of steel in defense plus excellent versatility into the tahs backline! We could easily see Karmichael fitting in as follows: A. Playing at 15 with Folau to wing. Or Folau to 13 and Rona to wing. B. Playing at 12...

I think blaming the tahs for cutting a player who has a poor attitude and work ethic is a bit rich. You'd have to be Nostradamus to get any of those calls right. Unfortunately you win some and you lose some. Remember that enormous 2nd rower they had a few years ago, Greg Peterson, supposed to...

Apparently the Tahs have just signed a young and enormous SA lock from the Currie Cup, Le Roux Roets. No clue as to if he's any good, but if he can't make any of the six SA franchises I'm not optimistic... I thought we'd learned our lesson with Hendrick 'Dud' Roodt, but apparently...

Apparently off to the NFL with Valentine Holmes according to the Courier mail

So assuming the Rebels roster is now full, their starting backline (subject to injuries of course) will look something like this Genia Cooper Korebeite Meakes Hodge Maddocks DHP With subs Ruru English Naivalu With To'omua still to come....... (the Real Madrid of Super rugby anyone? ;))...

In my opinion Joe Powell is barely Super Rugby standard, he's not particularly quick, a weak defender, has a good but not great pass, not a noted kicker. Seriously I'd have Matt Lucas in front of him at the Brumbies any day of the week. Powell really shouldn't even be in the conversation. In fact I'd...

Don't you have to be under the cap in the 1st place to stay under it? o_O

Another spot on analysis from NB as always, he's really the only bloke worth reading on that site. I think however that Dempsey and Hooper absolutely fill that role with ease. Also after watching both the Sydney rays matches and keeping a close eye on JD, he will be back in gold sooner rather...
