Quade needed to leave.
He was training hard. He was comfortable with his environment. Thorn banishing was probably the best thing to happen to him.
New environment and a skillful coach.
It's a positive. He doesn't have to be a dick about it.

Re: Match Fixing Wallabies
Too recent.
It’d be the Scottish Games back in 2009 I think? 2012?
Some very easy missed kicks in the first one by one player who was reknowned for chasing money. The captain was also someone who lost a lot of money and tried many things to recoup.
Allegedly

Re: Jordan Petaia... season over
He tried to do a little shake and go but was caught in the tackle. I reckon in his junior days he would've just used his strength to push out of the tacklers grasp so wouldn't think about adjusting his feet for a fall. This time however he was tackled by a stronger player and didn't think ro adjust...
