Can't wait. Games under the roof are always a doozy. Reds just need to not shit the bed in the opening 20 and we should get home but the Clan won't be easy

I suspect they want to give Vunivalu 40 mins in the second half not to put too much pressure on the injury

What do people on this forum think will happen if Australia wins just 4 of 25 games in TT, then next year the Waratahs scrape a home final in AU but without playing that well. The comp would be panned as a gee up because of the Aussie teams rep, the final would be in danger of being regarded as...

Completely agree with Reg. Can't see why he's starting over Sorovi. McDermott shouldn't have been switched imo, and if he was, it should have been Sorovi

A mate of mine is a banker in Syd who was talking to someone in News who reckons that ditching rugby was the greatest thing they ever did and it's not working at Nine/Stan, ROI doesn't cover the cost base, ratings are bs etc. Knowing the MO of NewsCorp, that is the surest sign that it is in...

Million dollar multi on all 5 AU teams to win this weekend. You’ve gotta believe Have also done one excluding the horrortahs

There will be more capacity for Sunday games in next year's 12 team comp, particularly on the weeks with 6 teams playing

There's a great fan base in Perth and I'm well aware that it has the potential to be huge and that the Force is a bona fide part of the community there. I just think when the Force actually have a winning team they deserve to stampede it in with 15 huge games and to put 60k in Optus, not 40

Still, seeing that hurts a bit. I'd love nothing more than for the Crusaders to lose to the Brumbies & Reds in the next fortnight and stick it to those writing us off

Stick this on the wall of every AU team. Bookies don’t rate us with all 5 NZ teams a bigger chance

I must be in the minority here but I think the only way is to have a home and away all in round robin comp with a semi final and a final. No AU only final, no NZ only final. I know that doesn't seem like the way forward after this weekend, but it'll make the comp look like a complete...

Yep, Lions player was red carded in 2017 final against the Cru for that tackle, albeit slightly worse than the DMac one

Don't like the goal line drop out. Getting held up deserves a 5m scrum. 50-22 is a good rule i reckon, but not overly concerned about it being punted Everything else is fine

Can we all take a moment to enjoy that this is the first week in probably 7 years we've had a bigger weekend than the NRL. In fact, Rugby League is in danger of shooting itself in the foot, with blowout scorlines from new rules (only 4 teams look likely to win the Comp), as well as an expansion...

banana slip game for the Reds. Highlanders have had a week off and won't have spent Sunday on the beers. We will have to rest Tupou, Wilson, Petaia. I don't think JOC (James O'Connor) should be rested, he was injured late last year and hasn't played that much. It's not like its been an incredibly long season...

Out of shot and a bit to the left!

Look who’s culling now!!!

Back on the game for a second. What are people thinking of the Reds performance tactically at the end. I know the Reds said not taking the scrum was about getting rid of referee risk, but I disagree. There’s no way the Reds are getting penalised in an 8 against 6 scrum that the brumbies are...

Thanks reds for a game I’ll never forget. Flew up and went with 20 or so mates, so good to see Caxton street heaving before and after the game. Had tickets in row 1 and row 3 right in front of where JOC (James O'Connor) scored. Absolutely unreal. My best mate had 100 bucks on reds to win and James o Connor to...

I'm loving the fishing and the barbs. Much more fun than endless bs nonsense about the administration and Folau anyday of the week. So good to be talking about Rugby
