Aussie Player Exodus

[Adam84]

same sport yeah, but still bugger all on the field effect... In either case, the investment for the marketing value was deemed worthwhile.

And if it's something the players want to do, and aren't concerned with the opinions of others, then good on them.

Tuipulotu empire grows in Scotland as Ottavio seals URC move

Scotland captain Sione Tuipulotu will be joined at Glasgow Warriors next season by his younger brother Ottavio, who has signed a two-year deal with the club.

I guess that this was inevitable and disappointed that Scotland will benefit from the RA investment in all 3 brothers.

Before he heads off back north what's been the general consensus of Parling from posters on here now his time has gone?

He’s ok. Not bad by any means but I think they have upgraded at that coaching position with Donnelly.

Time to kill the thread.

It lives until we get a Wallaby picked from the MLR.

Tbf Billy Meakes could have done exactly what Hamish Stewart did in gold.

For any player though it’s going to be a big call and dent your chances if you go overseas.

Our eyes are here, so if you aren’t an established Test player and you go it will most likely end your chances since most run of the mill pros aren’t being picked up by the very top sides overseas which then makes us want you back in gold even more. Killing it for Zebre ain’t gonna do it.

Having said all that, can we get Lucas into a Wallaby squad please and see how he looks?

I wont hear a bad word about modern day berrick barnes

Not even close to Barnes. We’d kill for Berrick Barnes right now.
