No idea on numbers, I’ll say any where between 7-9k.

I'd like to see Isi in there for some go forward - wowsers we have an abundance of riches in the back row.
If we get Skelton on the park in the Centres, it will give us another dimension

Kemeny has been the unsung performer of the season so far. A standout almost every week. The prototype blindside

I’d love to see Skelton given an NRC season at 13 (obviously not going to happen as there is no NRC). Needs some game time in the role at a high level

The NRC was a great development pathway. It’s so sad to see it go

Wessels was quoted as saying he has the traits of an inside centre, I say just imagine him hitting the fringes in the 13 channel.
Speaking of 13's wonder how much money we have in the cap should we be chasing Kerevi for 2022? Chieka said on the stan show saturday night that all it would cost you is his plane ticket! I reckon he would look good in the navy blue/pink

I think we start with isi on the bench to respect the good work wells done at 8 but imagine by next game he would be starting

Member ticket redemption now open for the Reds game Sat 03/04.

With 75% capacity this makes no sense, just lets members use there normal passes. Not going to get 20k on Easter weekend anyway.

Agree, apparently to get reserved seating they would have to wait until next week to open the process which would be too late. Even then, I am told we will still need to redeem for the Force and Brumbies games but they will be reserved seating.

At 75%, there may be reserved seating but I would be guessing that because of social distancing that if you have a reserved seat it may not be your normal reserved seat.

Well RA is resigned to loosing Marika off to panasonic for $1m a season can work out who its going to hurt more us or the wallabies

Much bigger loss to the Rebels. He's close to our best every game. Great if it's just a sabbatical, he's not too old and must've been in Melbourne for 7 years now, so got his roots down.

Looks like its 3 yr $3m offer ruling him out of the next RWC. Hard to knock back that money. He'd be getting a RA top up prob not that much from us. I'd love Kerevi but with the amount of money Top14 club put into locks maybe use any spare cap money to extend Hosea

There actually is the new rule brought in last year for covid which still in play where can bring in two players from overseas who are under 60 caps. Not used last season but is available for Rennie. At this point for RWC if this rule still in place and Koriobete still the player he is today then would make sense to include him under this two players can select from overseas.

Just be thankful at least RA held firm and did not give a early release and so have him for this season. Irony is compare with top league players Marika on low money as top league players are actually earning $1m a season (at least I think there is a couple in this bracket or at least close to this)
