^^ @R3, Agree. Also most new business ventures will conduct capital raising that will no doubt attract 'angel investors from private sector as well as RND funding from gov.It will be interesting to see.It could igniote the super league type scenario of privatising teams a la Twiggy and his Force.

I like the JOC (James O'Connor) and JOCK combo. JOCK will hit the inside ball from JOC (James O'Connor) a la Tom B. JOCK is a decent goal kicker

"I agree that Hegarty isn't in a starting XV on a Championship Super Rugby side, but he's been one of our best players -- at least very close with O'Connor for our best back. He's not fantastic but he also doesn't do much wrong, he's like the anti-Quade, low risk - low reward." Zero C, how do...

So Mat To'omua has had 1&1/2 games at playing 10, compared to Beale and more so Foley(50+games) and thats a fair go to be judge 'subpar'? I think if Mat T had half the number of games Foley had at 10 he would be 50 times better at it then those 2 combined.

Wobbs, yeah I saw that of QC (Quade Cooper). I thought he had an ourstanding NRC campaign . So Il hold my judgement just yet and hope the newly appointed selectors(X2) bring their rugby brains not their mates requests.

^^ For real? LJ has been there before. BUT, Super rugby 2019 will be the most obvious place to audition and make a legitimate claim to get back, and imo same goes for all others who want to represent the green and gold jersey at WC!! (including AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)& khunt).Let the trials begin and may the best...

TBC: Brandon Paenga-Amosa - ?? Harry Hoopert - ?? Adam Korczyk - ?? Liam Wright - ?? Tate McDermott - ?? Teti Tela - ?? Jordan Petaia - ?? Thats a fair few cattles munching outside the REDS fence atm??

J Petaia: 2016 Played 8 games on the wing for BSHS (GPS champs 2016) played 1 game @wing and 3 games @center for combined states(finished 3rd @ Nationals) Played 1 game @Wing for Australian Barbarians vs Tonga 2017 Played 7 games @ #15 for BSHS Played 4 games @ #13 for Qld 1(fin 3rd) Played...

New It's a bit shit that going into a Bledisloe we will have a player who has played 13 twice all year. Would that be Izzy Folau or young Jordy Petaia ?? :) :) No way Rona gets the pick after last night, sadly. Rona maybe saving all his "extradinariness till Bleedisloe" :) ???

. . .There's that ass word again sunnyboy :)

Reg(or anyone else in the know), any further info on the TBC list you posted? Esp concerning a lot of our young guns listed here, in light of Perese's sad news.

Silverado - Georgina Robinson in SMH suggested its highly likely he will stay at Tahs. "Now, the Waratahs hope they can fend off keen interest from Brad Thorn's Reds to see a five-year relationship with Folau bear further fruit." Georgina Robinson. Hope is 'no guarantee' IF is staying with...

#13 The centerpiece of any rugby team's backline. Some significant stats from australian super rugby franchises , their defensive read and effective execution %. Curtis Rona @ 81% Tevita Kurudrani @79% (85&89% last 2 games) Samu Kerevi @74% Thomas English @81% Jordan Petaia @89%...

To be fair, they're piggy backing off Stiles' hard work over the preceding 3-4 years as Forwards coach, Co-Coach and then Head coach. We've had the strongest scrum in Australia for a few years now I disagree!! Joejohnzy The scrum has only become a major weapon this year. Most of the forwards...

^^^ In that case, wheres RUPA or a RA(part employer of Khunt) player welfare person at??? Someone should be following up these players : QC (Quade Cooper); SLippery, etc, and provide some support towards doing something, which really should be playing rugby or contributing to grassroots rugby.

The bigger man and real mate here is Quade. QC (Quade Cooper) appears to value his mates, regardless of there status. According to the article in rugby.com, it was never about premiership but a mate reaching out to a hurting and withdrawn friend albeit self inflicted. Khunt I hope you have fun out there in the...

For a guy who's concerned about his sons well beings, he probably needs to brush up on Suicide being the leading killer for boys/men. B.Thorn is a father who has sons & a rugby coach second.He is trying to become an expert in those arenas. To understand the complexities of mental health and...

This will be a very interesting game for the reds. Will they blood the youngsters as it was in the internal club trial in Feb? IMO, forward pack will be the same with only one change and a few changes in the backs. JP Smith B Amosa T Tupou I. Rodda/Tui H. Hockings L Tui/S Higginbottom/ASY (Angus Scott-Young)...

Clearly Folau was in a realistic position to contest because he is the one that slapped the ball back. This type of lift where the player is uncontrolled and going backwards means that even the slightest incidental contact will create a dangerous situation. Change the rule.!! We already have a...
