    Ben Teo didn’t. That attitude is why he went to league in the first place. Did you see his interview? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rebels 2018

    A letter of intent is nothing more than a little reassurance for the Force boys that they have a home next year if the Force folds. As we've seen in mungo land a million times they're not enforceable. I just think the whole episode sucks a fat one. If it's the Force that gets to walk the plank...

    Where to for Super Rugby?

    I like lines . They're good to read between. So here's my read. Sindeberry has gone very soft and compliant on the ARU front the last week. I smell impending fatality here. Then we read Coleman has signed with the Rebels ..even though he denied . What else could he do? Hartley signed. So the...

    Rebels 2018

    After reading the feedback in the so called Force vs ARU arbitration and the softer stance by Sindeberry over the last few days, I'm feeling that sadly the Force is done. I also think that Cox and co have been cherry picking their list...given the Coleman rumours. I would if I was him. My...

    Rebels 2017

    It's actually a smart strategy for the ARU to lift the moratorium. If as the first report suggests the Force boys are signing new deals elsewhere then there will be no one left at the Force and they won't be able field a team next year. It then becomes an easy shutdown. I would be sceptical...

    Junior rugby based on weight classes

    A couple of things. Firstly it's a real thing here in Oz and particularly in Victoria where we have a disproportionately large PI community involved in the game by comparison to other states. I have seen as recently as last weekend big PI boys with an easy 40-50 kg over their opponents. The Nz...

    Should The Wallabies be doing a Bumala-y Yuurrama-y?

    Here's a little Wallaby war cry history for you all. https://saintsandheathens.wordpress.com/wallabies-rugby/wallabies-warcry-rugby-haka/ And here's a little mungo war cry history. Basically the Wallas used to do the war cry regularly until the 50's and the Kangaroos did it until 67...

    Force v Rebels Rd 5

    Totally agree. They need to either move McMahon to 7 or give Reid a start because Fainga'a just doesn't have the breakdown aggression and he is a very loose 7. I dont know what Nevile has done not to get picked, but he would give a lot more added starch to the pack than the current back up pair...

    Didn't the Rebs u15's win the national gold cup and the U17's made the granny too. Pathways are strong cause that wouldn't gave happened 5 years ago.

    All-Time Crim 1st XV

    So in the late 60's playing for Newport Juniors U8's Tim Bristow was driving a few us home from a game on a Sat morning. There was an accident on the Wakehurst Parkway and one driver was giving the other driver a massive gobful. Tim, much to the disdain of his wife pulled over and got involved...

    REBELS v HIGHLANDERS - Harlequins RC 5th Feb @6:30pm

    Just give me a moment on Stirzaker. Am I missing something? His D is average. He poses absolutely no threat ball in hand around the ruck base like Burgess and Meehan - Everyone knows he is going to pass the pill under all circumstances. His box kicking was appalling. He passed a couple of times...

    The Chargers are definitely a side/club on the rise. They've had big numbers at pre-season and Lachie Mitchell is there helping out with the coaching now too.

    Rebels 2015

    So 28-13 to us but very rusty by both sides. Why Reid is 4th choice flanker is beyond me??? V good in counter attack but lacked a decent maul defence. A bit to work on but some promise.

    Rebels 2015

    Anyone up for the idea of Inman of transitioning to 6 ala Jim Williams? Personally I think he would make a red hot big ball carrying back rower. Ellison and Sau need to be the centre pairing next year. We certainly need more size and penetration up front. We got a stack of 7's but buggering...

    The success of League players in Rugby Union

    Not incorrect young gun. Lewis was never a flanker. He was a 10/12. In that side Ella was 10 Melrose played12. And Wally was on the bench. And 2 out of the 3 them I know, so I am correct. Sent from my C5303 using Tapatalk

    The success of League players in Rugby Union

    And Wally was only a back up to Ella. And the only reason he got picked was because there were already 5 from Matraville High in the side so Lloyd Walker, who should have been there, missed out.

    Reds 2014

    Might be just me but I think there's a couple of reasons the Reds aren't firing this year. The first is, as had been talked about here, RG has a very conservative Deans game plan. You don't take the Harlem Globetrotters and turn them into desk clerks do you? The second thing I think is missing...
