Has he done the press conferene yet? I was watching hte match on Amazon prime and they said they would show the press conference then they bloody video stopped saying event ended.

He never aimed at her and he didn't even hit it that hard. That woman falling on the ground from that :roll: I feel bad for Djokovic. He's a very competitive guy but he's not a bad bloke and he would have never intented to hit anyone. You could see his reaction straight away when he saw that it hit ...

It will be interesting to whether Rennie plays JOC or Toomua at 10. In the recently release list of players he's interested in, Toomua I think is at 10 and JOC at 12 but that can easily change.

TranceNRG

Yeah she definitely had some good things.

So what's going to happen to NRC going forward. There's no mention of it in these new plans. I think continuing NRC would be better than a national cloub comp where talent is so thinly diluted. I say keep NRC and start a national club comb as well.

Not at all. She would have only added a few more zeros to the end.

Why we do we have to copy Mungoball's State of Origin crap? Content = $$$$ Trance. Content takes more games than the domestic comp produces. And these would be marquis games. I am not sure if you had a chance to read the Hammer's CV, but he knows how to get the $, from both sides of the fence. The ...

Why we do we have to copy Mungoball's State of Origin crap? 'We' don't. But it was swiped from Australian football in the first instance. Who canned it, along with that Irish Gaelic football abomination. AFL does one thing and does it well. A true national football comp. Having better administratio...

Why we do we have to copy Mungoball's State of Origin crap? You might not appeciate it, but millions do In any case, I think it’s a proxy for tryiNg to get that 6N intensity. I don't watch it but I know others do but it's lame trying to copy their product. I am not sure it will work in Rugby. As fo...

Some in the EU fan club are pathetic and get a hissy fit at the suggestion that a UK negotiated trade deal might actually go further than an EU negotiated trade deal. EU trade deals need to satisfy all member states and need to be ratified by them UK don't have that problem.

Toomua and JOC would be in the form flyhalves. Deegan has been excellent whenever he's come on. I haven't seen a lot of Lance but I've always thought of him as a solid player rather than a standout player. I think Hodge has played very well at 15 (that might be his best position) and should be consi...

TranceNRG

Yeah I don't think Simmons, Maddocks and Lance should be there. We have better players than them. I'd be tempted to play one of the young locks instead of Simmons. As Mog said Hodge shoud be there somewhere. Maddocks can be quite erratic at times and he's done nothing to be in Wallabies. If we are g...

I wouldn't mind seeing JOC at 10 and Toomua at 12 but I'm not sure why so many people think that it should be like that and not the other way around.

Toomua has been excellent for Rebels at 10 this year in most games. Have you guys seen the games where he's played 10?

From what I’ve read, McLennan looks like the ideal boss for a modern Oz sport. - knows media - great contacts - knows real money (where to get it and how to structure it) - knows digital - has successful established a new sporting comp I’m an existing market.

In the games I've seen Wilson has been pretty busy making plenty of tackles and hitting rucks. I didn't thikn of him as somoene who's only good at running the ball. I'll keep a close eye on him in Reds' next game.

TranceNRG

Rodda is 6 years younger than Coleman so he's definitely a bigger loss. Coleman never matured as a player. He was always on the verge but never got there. Rodda IMO is also a better player. He was on his way to becoming a really good test lock. I hope Hosea will continue to get better. Rebels forwa...

Good to see Bimbo keeping those nasty EU fan boys in check :P I reckon an agreement on the trade deal is not far away and this is one of the reasons Pound has been gaining in recent weeks. It'll be interesting to see what compromises both sides will make. What an FTA inside a year? Impossible. Yeah...

I think Rodda is a bigger loss than Coleman. Hopefully he'll come back but not sure ARU will offer him a contract.

Melbourne has promised a few good super rugby players in recent years:

Jordan Uelese
Trevor Hosea
Pone Faamausili
Rob Leota
Rob Valetini
Pete Samu
Hunter Paisami

Fereti Saaga has also played a handful of games for Rebels.

All forwards apart from Paisami.

TranceNRG

Valetini has to be Wobs’ 6. Looks like the most promising 6 since..... Rocky? Out of the ponies’ tight five, only AAA looks up for tests - they’re superstars are struggling most weeks. The only place they’re dominating is on wwe.theroar.com.au. Uelese is the best hooker in the country by a clear ma...

How good was that performance by Rebles? Especially in the first half. We need to see the Degan-Toomua-Magnay combination more. Much better than other combos they've had. All 3 are quality players.

Matty Toomua is a 12 through and through. JOC is probably the same. Therein lies the problem. 10 JOC 12 Toomua 13 Jordan Petaia Could be a good starting point. Maybe Lolesio starts at 10 or comes off the bench? The Rebs really touched up the Brums at the coal face. Some experienced Wobs were put to...

Naisarani has to be the 8 though I'm a huge fan of Harry Wilson (been enjoying his play since last year's U20 comp). Let Wilson play another season of super rugby. We are not short of backrowers these days. Or play him off the bench. I think no 6 is wide open. There's a few players that can play the...

Hodge has played well at 15. I think it suits him better than 13. However he's only played a few games there so too early to say he should be Wallabies 15. I'm not sold on Banks. DHP is solid without being outstanding. If Hodge continues to do well there then I'd like to see him there given his big ...
