As a QLDer I hate the Tahs, but Jesus I’m feeling sorry for them tonight. First 20 mins was amazing and then they just shit the bed Piss poor defence. Weird selections. Overly complex lineout calls Poor coaching basically. Doesn’t explain shit like gamble failing to do his job. I’d also love to see...

I second this, and welcome our return to our more comfortable status of plucky underdogs. It says it all that even our 10, pivotal position though it is, couldn't make the top 3 for the 1 and 7 Crusaders. We really scraped the barrel for the dregs this season. No kidding, we were desperate enough t...

Riley goes alright (must admit knowing nuthin' about him) U20s > 7s > Tahs > West Tigers > Tahs. He's a good player but not a game breaker. :thumbup: Ta Know he's copped some flak recently, but it's a shame Nawaqanitawase is departing to mungo. I blame Eddie :x I blame Eddie for climate change, the...

There are a few differences between these two teams. The principal one is the Chiefs have DMac and the 'tahs don't.

It's a good recap, it'll save lives but won't allow an offensive this year as noted. For mine the key issue now is more Ukraine's personnel, and morale at the front and in civilian life for the ordinary Ukrainians. It's tough, a constant flow of coffins returning home. The people doing the fighting...

As Ms MungoSpouse noticed, it happened before he touched the pill down. But yeah, hope it's minor. He's a great player to watch.

Yep, it was clean. But like they said - only just.

I wondered how much today's news would affect the Rebels. Didn't take long to find out. I'm wondering if the Rebels should be permitted to play another game. What guarantee is there that the players and staff will be paid, their PAYG income tax will be paid, etc etc? RA is paying the players and co...

What was it he did in the end? Looked at some only fans or something? Well done social media, you've done it again. I believe he paid a vulnerable 17 year old for some sexually explicit pictures.

I don't see serious potential at test level. I see a player who has tried very hard in a struggling team but has ultimately had zero impact on results. The Crusaders lineout has been terrible. Probably the worst ever Crusaders lineout. Sam Whitelock in contrast had serious potential when he was you...

In the aftermath of this match I would not for anything be one of the Brumbies' ground staff.

Not being a sports bettor or any manner of bettor, I didn't realise TAB (and maybe others) still recognise a draw in soup rugby as a result for wagering purposes.

I was just asking the question. Arvo games in Australia definitely clash with club and school rugby, so I’d suggest that would constrain the potential crowd. Do most/many AFL or NRL fans even play their sport? They certainly don’t get 10k crowds at school games on Saturday afternoons. That would be...

TV rights? I’m not so sure. Does Sky sell ads for SR games? Otherwise, I’m not sure why subscribers would bail if games weren’t on at night, though perhaps they would.
