Michalak played in only two games. SANZAR had to clear him as an injury replacement for the Shorks backup scrum-half to be able to play this weekend (besides it's four games, not three, to be eligible).

Shepherd, Phipps, Genia & Link are all deserving winners. Dickinson's award I have no real opinion on. But it shows what I know about rugby. I thought Genia was robbed last year when the award went to Cooper. I thought Cooper was much better, more mature player this season but both years I...

Michalak only made the Sharks squad for two games but has been cleared by SANZAR to play in the finals as a replacement to Sharks backup scrumhalf, Conrad Hoffman. I can't imagine Freddy will see any time at scrumhalf unless McLeod goes down injured.

He sounds optimistic which is promising but hammys are funny things and he still has to complete the full training session on Monday first. It seems likely but a few hurdles to clear yet.

Greg Peters on Twitter said it was 4 games. His exact words, "4 unless their are extenuating circumstances in terms of injuries in the squad which have to be supported by medicals to us".

Ah, good to know. I wasn't sure. I thought that it most likely was unlimited 'batches' but (from memory, and I may be wrong on this) one round I made two transfers with the plan to make an additional transfer later in the week but this wasn't allowed.

I have a question (which I have also sent to Foxsports but am still awaiting a reply), in the remaining weeks where there are unlimited transfers, I am able to make some transfers today and then later in the same week make some additional transfers (or am I restricted to one 'batch' of unlimited...

I see what you're getting at but whoever it was in South Africa that was testing Harris under the high ball, they weren't doing it from set piece play while Cooper was at the back (as the Reds were still defending set pieces this way back then too).

Wow - a marquee signing that will only be eligible to play for one game all season. Still, he'll probably end up being more useful than the Tahs marquee player for the last two seasons. I say good luck to him for his chances of equalling both records.

I'm a little surprised that I didn't see the Force try the same tactic as the Stormers (that had Harris moved from fullback, or was it the Lions?). Anyway, given Jono isn't a regular fullback I'm surprised that they didn't try him under the high ball too many times - if at all?

It sounds like they may be "lucky" to even get to NZ with the ash (one would expect if this is the case the game might be called a draw thus handing the Reds top spot and a two week break). While this prevents further injury I'm sure that they would rather play the game. If the game is on I...

The Reds have said that they will call all members but they are notoriously bad at communication regarding memberships, seating etc. The finals information page on redsrugby.com.au suggests that Forever Red memberships can buy finals tickets from the 22nd June (with full members able to...

I thought Gill played exceptionally well for a run-on debut. Unfortunately for him Stu Dickinson wasn't letting him get away with half the crap the Force backrow got away with all game.

Our 2010 seats were in section 332. So when I was renewing I asked about what was going on there. QRU informs me that it will be a "cheer squad" section which I think is great. They did offer me the option to renew our seats in the "cheer squad" section so I think it was just new members that...

I care. I had decided that 2011 was a year for a new jersey. When I first saw the new jersey (a photo of it anyway) I had serious doubts about the plan. I'm waiting to see it in the flesh before deciding.

Anyone know if the Rebels had a function on last night? I was walking past the Novotel and had a hard time not noticing a largish group of ladies walking out of there all dressed up in cocktail dresses, then eventually noticed the blokes accompanying them were all pretty sizable lads. I was in...
