    Aussie Player Exodus

    All 3 of Douglas, Holmes and Tapuai would be useful at the Rebels. - Holmes would be more reliable then mini gordon and strachan as backup 10. - Douglas would shore up a lack of experience in the second row, at the very least around the group. - Tapuai is an experienced 12, a position the...

    Lions Tour 2025

    It's not a real test so he wouldnt get released. This will be up to NZ A & , AUS A players (barring those in brumbies as it is only 3 days after their game), and whatever big names we can get approval as a favour by the japanese clubs in their offseason.

    Lions Tour 2025

    Hopefulyl a few players in Aus that are strong but not eligible. Like Ekuasi, Eloff & Proctor from the Rebels, Moli from Force.

    Queensland Reds 2024

    Yeh - a good path for him, injury is unfortunate but didn't want to see him in the 23 anytime soon anyway. Would have had a good academy experience in ACT, now can sit in behind Nonggoor, learning from JTA (Jeffery Toomaga-Allen), whilst on the LHP side, Hodgman, Ravai and Faagase is a healthy depth.

    Australian Rugby / RA

    Think the Lions tour gets them through. Also an expected raise in broadcast revenue deal because of the Tour and WC.

    Force could use him.

    Wallabies 2024

    I agree - we have numbers but its more of a logjam of average players hoping to get a shot - BUT, Marky Mark (Nawaqanitawase) went from below average to wallaby star very quickly so it CAN HAPPEN. Kinda like the shitfight for the 3rd LHP & THP spots

    Wallabies 2024

    Surely Lancaster is not being considered Potter isn't that surprising given his relative success in the UK. Daugunu was one of the best in Australia A so it makes sense he is currently 'next cab off the rank', but if still pick Marky IN 2024, Koroibete has said he is still keen and Vunivalu got...

    Wallabies 2024

    Marika has said he is keen to play on - yay for 2024 at least. Yeh you aren't wrong - I'm just jaded. It's also a big IF he comes back for 2027. We won't know for almost 3 years!

    Wallabies 2024

    Do we select Mark in 2024? Part of me says - best team possible each game regardless. Part of me says - fuk that guy, don't pay him match top ups Hope he has a big 2 years in league, if he wants back into wallabies for 2027 WC, then he will need to kill it otherwise his value will drop, not...

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    I disagree about Harrison - he is a bit hold hands and singalong when it comes to players - being the RUPA boss and all. He will never be able to be overly critical - I mean they used him in the review FFS. Was he open and honest at the WC etc (like SBW)? Can he even be open and honest when he...

    If its just under normal income tax, then 500k aud in France is about 50k worse off then 500k in Aus To make it even, he would need to get paid $400k here in Australia.

    Wallabies 2024

    He is fine - will be a stalwart in the squad in 2024 and beyond, will be our Slipper in 2027. Basically a shitfight for the 3rd LHP and THP in 2024 and 2025, Schoup, Hodgman, Gibbon, Lambert Pone, Talakai, HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes), Nonggoor, then Eloff to be eligible.

    Wallabies 2024

    Anderson got opportunities in Aus A squad - but I do want to see Toole and Potter in and around. Toole just has something you can't coach and SA have shown the value of having at least 1 hyper elusive wing.

    Wallabies 2024

    Again - being around for the WC has NOTHING to do with whether someone should be in the squad in 2024. The CEO has made that clear.

    Wallabies 2024

    I said he was a wallaby - which is accurate. This was a side (and very off topic) discussion about which capped wallaby should be dropped from the starting Reds XV in order to accommodate Lynagh or HMP, not a suggestion of which capped wallaby in the Reds should be selected as a wallaby in 2024...
