You have more of an excuse, being an early starter and all. Bindi, OTOH, is just getting old.

The groundkeeper deserves a long suspension.

He’s out there on that wall, exactly where you want him to be

On the wall he may well be.

Most assuredly he is not on the fence where the Brumbies are concerned.

MungoMan

Is it possible to shut some Brumbies supporters up ? As a Kiwi living here in Australia I’m delighted to see some young blood filtering through the Australian SR sides however, until such time as the Australian SR sides play the Kiwi sides twice (home & away), this competition will never be on a le...

I like scrums too, and agree with the posters saying that fewer scrums is not indicative necessarily of a better game. Maybe someone more clued into modern front row play than me could explain why hookers don't seem to be able to strike any more . I would have thought a way to make scrums more effe...

It is a shame and a disgrace that this magnificent phenomenon remains, quite literally, out of reach for those of us remaining in certain places.

I'm calling this out for what is is: rank latitudinism!

Onside from kicks in open play: In a rewrite of Law 10.7 relating to players being put onside from kicks in open play, it will no longer be possible for a player to be put onside when an opposition player catches the ball and runs five metres, or passes the ball. Laws 10.1 and 10.4 will make clear ...

Gotta say, thought the Reds had fvcked that.

Happy to be proven wrong.

Reds defensive breakdown has been slow & inaccurate.

Bigger crowds at Suncorp tend to be at games with more local / travelling supporters for the oppo.

Not really the case for the Rebels, unfortunately.

Not sure I like the option of removing the scrum option from a free kick. Sounds like a way of avoiding the real issue - better reffing of the scrum. On the topic, I saw this posted https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GNJyTrXX0AAsYMG?format=jpg&name=900x900 Incredible how much the game has changed in the 3...

I’ve seen the not straight throw going into the opposition’s side but it was still whistled up for not being straight. Followed by another stoppage in play. Those kinds of calls are pointless in my humblest opinion. tbf, I've seen that as well. For mine, the punishment has already been delivered si...

https://i.imgur.com/dvmkrun.jpeg This shouldn’t be a law trial. This should be a law change as well. Complete waste of time to sanction a not-straight throw if the other team didn’t even contest the lineout. It just slows the game down for no good reason. Unsure about this. The contest proper, othe...

:( That’s awful. You were not exaggerating. And there is a stern but necessary remedy available.

NZ has a weird thing when it comes to building stadiums. Just build the f**king thing. NZ is a relatively wealthy country, this shouldn't be an issue.
