Surely WR have to appeal this. To protect themselves legally if nothing else. Didn't he also get away with something similar against SA at the last RWC? And I don't like to jump up and down about racism but I do find it fascinating how in the first few pages of this thread there were posters saying ...

No Ben Volavola! Vinaya Habosi is an excellent winger but he’s been in off-field (ie: domestic violence) trouble in the past year. Interesting they’ve still chosen him. Rumour has it, hum signing for Agen had something to do with it, as it does Yato's exclusion. Habosi's case is interesting, again,...

Drua just leaving Fiji today.

flaggETERNAL

If this game is close after 50-60 minutes, the depth in both squads will be sorely tested. If that is the case, will the injury crisis take it's toll? The only time the Drua have managed to close out a tight game was last week against the Reds. That was before a passionate home crowd in 29 degree w...

Funny how people like AC aren't complaining about the temptation now.

My one microscopic hope is that the Crusaders, out an eagerness to avenge their loss early in the season lose their heads and start playing loose. If that happens I'd put the Drua up against any Super side.

I expect the Chiefs to Beat the Reds and the Blues should have the measure of the Tahs. The Canes v the Brumbies is a bit of a coin toss and the Odds reflect this. The game I will be very interested in is The Drua v Saders..... https://scontent-akl1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/350825915_5587381797...

As will the Crusaders with their loss to the Drua

Good chance of that. I'm assuming the Chiefs will rest a few players

Reds sure know how to implode Or the Drua are playing out of their skins? Yep. How do you stop them when they’re like this? Whether or not we made the final 8 I'm quietly satisfied with how we went this year. 5 out of 6 wins at home. I'd we can take that same intensity on the road next year...

For both teams so it's all good I guess.

Drua really gave it to the Brumbies away from home in Canberra before losing a close one. So maybe they have a one big one in them yet away from home. I'd love to see it but I can also see us going down the Force and somehow beating the Waratahs. It is good to see the Drua go in to an away game tho...

Some of the Fijian boredists would have insight. I notice some (not Flagg) were Bainimarama supporters. Fiji had WR funding withheld a few years ago due to something to do with Bainimarama’s interference with the FRU (his brother was the FRU Chair or CEO or something like that) I'm not sure this ha...

Michael Field is credible and has a long history in the pacific but sometimes his sources are not. We’ll see if this actually has any legs.

The women's team that just won the Super W comp again?

Saw a picture of the refs. It looks erm... bit monochromatic

Would have loved to have seen the Drua win this but, Force at home so Force by 10

Drua aren't doing too badly in terms of support, home and away and on the field aren't doing too badly this season.

Not sure why the Rebels are trying to throw the ball around in this 32 degree heat.

Watching the game, the heat is brutal. I'd like to see how the second half goes for the Rebels
