    I'm with you 100% SouthernX. I can't believe Tui is able to skate through this totally blameless.

    RC4 - Australia v Argentina

    Tui had some gibberer having a go at him and should have simply walked away. Watching this happen live I couldn't believe a player would be engaging with a fan in this manner and was staggered when it escalated. As the video evidence shows, unless Tui's sister was buried in the middle of that...

    The Wallabies Thread

    Agree with Rebels3 that that article brilliantly highlights one of our major issues. ANY coach that thinks he can plan or script plays beyond 3 phases is kidding himself. I'd even go so far as to say trying to script anything beyond 2 phases is a waste of time. 2, 3 phases max, should be enough...

    I can tell you they are not officially weighed or measured, just given a form to fill out and they all add a few kg's & cm's to their actual stats

    Sorry mate, don't know but as someone else suggested, I reckon that is just a poorly worded thanks for the season and nothing more

    In light of that Cape Town incident coming out, I can tell you senior players are filthy that Mafi got away with that without any sanction whatsoever, with the Timani incident being the result. He was a law unto himself both on and off the field and a more experienced coach would have done...

    He's not happy spending most of his time on the pine

    He's looking at options elsewhere.

    First one didn't make it to the media and I have to be careful what I say. Was on the tour to SA and involved a Wallaby.

    And not the first time he has been involved in an altercation with a fellow player on tour this year.

    Rebels 2019

    Of course the Rebels could of wrapped up their finals place by winning any of the last 3 games that they were in positions to win and should have won at least one however Rebels3 is spot on. Game management across Oz rugby and particularly at the Rebels is horrendous and I hope they have a...

    Round 19 - Reds vs Sunwolves - Friday 13 July 2018

    As soon as I heard the ref say red card I changed channels to St Kilda v Carlton, that's how bad the game is going. Worst decision I've ever seen.

    Round 19 - Reds vs Sunwolves - Friday 13 July 2018

    The game has now officially lost the plot. That decision simply cannot be defended and as a player coach and spectator of 50 years it truly saddens me to see this once great game decend to this level.

    No worries at all Mr Wobbly. I missed that post that got deleted so couldn't comment at the time. I can tell you Colby has loved his time in Melbourne and would like to settle there when he and his family eventually return to Oz

    Rebels 2019

    Yes I have been sitting on this, however I can tell you the final decision was only made on Monday after the Rebels made a last ditch play to keep him there for next season after getting wind of the Connacht offer. While he had been looking at overseas options for a while the Connacht offer only...

    Wallabies 2019 Thread

    I think some of you blokes are missing the point Brumby Runner is making. First of all he is 100% correct that the team in possession dictates the numbers and set up of the lineout. How many players the defending team has standing there waiting for them is totally irrelevant. Any adjustments...

    Round 18: Waratahs v Sunwolves, Saturday 7:15 AET, SFS

    Yep agree just a sloppy tackle and I still say he let him go as they end up about 2 meters apart on the ground. Was the forward pass even looked at?

    Round 18: Waratahs v Sunwolves, Saturday 7:15 AET, SFS

    I reckon he was stiff as he let Foley go and certainly didn't drive him into the ground.

    Round 18 - Reds Vs Rebels - Jul 6, 7.45PM

    Watching the Rebels on a regular basis you get used to watching some seriously DUMB rugby but that display was off the scale. Taking shots at goal from 40 odd out 5 or 10 in from touch, turning down shots from 20-30 out straight in front, their lack of game awareness in relation to momentum is...
