And the squad is named when?

Looking very much like after the game

Perhaps there are no force players being included and they realised it would not be a good look to name a squad without any force players before they played the game today.

Clearly the Force game is the reason it was put back, however I suspect the squad was already picked - maybe the Force players in contention are in regardless, or maybe there aren’t any. We will find out soon.
My guess is Nine wanted to name it on Sports Sunday so as to avoid a clash with the F1, but RA have taken a players first, eyeballs second stance.

Geez lot of people very excited for this squad, can't say it interests me much at all considering we don't have any Tests for 3 months and there's still plenty of Super Rugby to still be played. Could completely change. We don't even know what the intention of this squad is.

After all Eddie’s rhetoric, it will give us an idea where his heads at this stage. Injury, form and Giteau selections may change these selections closer to the internationals. But just an idea of who’s who in the zoo

The initial squad serves as motivation for the fringe guys. Step up or elevate your game or you’ll be playing club rugby whilst some of your teammates are eating bagels in France

Where on Stan is the Team announced?

It’s not being announced on stan. Nick Mcardle said follow the socials

 

[whitefalcon]

Rebels on twitter saying it will be announced at 430?

no tate seems significant

 

[SouthernX]

Vunivalu WTF… there’s our talking point for the week.

 

[Highlander35]

Uelese in ahead of Mafi, Lonergan in the squad but no Gibbo? Banger squad for the head scratchers

 

[rugbyAU]

Gordon, Lolesio, Wilson and Perese miss out as well

Interesting to note the full "squad"
