    Might have a dig over the weekend.

    Western Sydney Rams . NRC Official Team Thread

    The Rams often do this- it's pretty sloppy. All matches at Concord? Yuck. Too far east- they can't expect rugby fans to travel all that way. ;)

    Australian Women's Sevens Team

    Thought that I should bump this thread, in case any new-found fans of women's sevens are lurking out there. I was thinking of starting a women's rugby general discussion thread, but I don't have the necessary permissions. Also, I was thinking that maybe someone could whip up an article for...

    The Wallabies Thread

    Phipp's pass gets worse when he's under more pressure, but this season it's quite often shithouse to begin with. Surely it's the halfback's job to avoid putting his backline under pressure by passing before they're ready? Of course, he can be helped by backs working harder to get into...

    This thread isn't the place for amateur erotica.

    The Wallabies Thread

    Fantastic news. Really great to see the ARU starting to develop more of a whole-of-game approach.

    This seemed pretty clear to me: “I’d love that. I’d love to see him have that opportunity. Everything I want in a coach and in a mentor, he has those qualities,” Cooper said. “So I’d be excited to work under Stilesy and build a relationship moving forward.” Indeed, he indicated the Reds’...

    Two interesting tidbits in today's Australian (to get around the paywall, just copy the blurb into a google search). 1. Quade would like Stiles to be head coach 2. Laurie Fisher is rumoured to be in strong contention There seems to be a lot of player support for Stiles, for what that's...

    Here's an article by Zavos from when the Fowler business was going down: http://www.theroar.com.au/2012/04/30/queensland-reds-are-fracturing-over-personal-agendas/ Makes for very interesting reading in hindsight. Elsewhere, we wonder why there's a dearth of coaching options in Australian...

    Meakes looks like he could go alright.

    Wallaby Coaching Staff

    Whether they are good coaches or not, no tier-one country should have part-time national coaches.

    Could be a great signing, I'd expect that he'd basically be a player-coach.

    For the record, I was being very sarcastic.

    Tahs to sign another Leaguie? Apparently Kevin Locke is close to signing.

    Interesting to note that QC (Quade Cooper) described Jim McKay as the architect of the 2011 success, and he's just gone into a HC role in Japan. It doesn't help us for next season, but I think that we should try to bring him back after a couple of years.

    The new Wallaby jersey

    Mate, we're getting there. It's a bit green this season, next season the Revolutionary Change will be an all-green collar with white piping, the year after that it'll be all-green, no piping; but the year after that we'll change sponsor, and wear a green-and-gold tie-dyed singlet.

    Tragically probably true. Would think that the board would be wary of appointing anybody too obviously old-boys-y, given the RG dramas. Then again, maybe they don't care, now that the dust has settled.

    No idea about the veracity of the rumour, but we do need somebody willing to crack some eggs.

    Rugby TV Ratings 2016

    Woeful numbers. The RL U20 test got 12k more than our best-rating game, and the tests 30- 80k more again.
