Just my opinion, but the game before the Bledisloe is a great opportunity. I don't know if it's possible, but is it possible to make this the biggest thing yet? Some thoughts.... hire out Optus...

There have been the occasional buffering issues, but it's been working well lately. We're on NBN, and had a few buffering issues, but ended up buying the Foxtel Now box which seems to work well. I'm...
2 and a bit weeks out from the start of Super Rugby and there's virtually no advertising on Foxtel. All I'm seeing is a "Super" ad where rugby is pictured in a combined ad amongst a bunch of other...
It's really positive that Malaysia is in the mix.
.... and who gets to not play as a result of Adam Ashley Cooper coming back? It's surprising looking at the team list and the number of ex-Western Force players who were in red hot form last year but...
I wonder if there's a clause in Folau's contract that says it's only valid to the end of the current broadcast agreement?
It's kind of funny, I thought RA/NZR were concerned about losing players overseas. I can't see many players feeling the need to stick around with less Super Rugby teams, major question marks about...
I've got to say, I don't think there would have been press releases like this if Bill Pulver had still been there, under instruction from Cameron Clyne. I'm sure that getting to this point would have...
James O'Connor to make his Wallabies return...

I'm not sure if this is reading too much into things. but is this an indication of the NZ team in WSR next year? (Sorry, not sure how to link to the previous thread "Canterbury Rugby Union and...
Does anyone know what happened to the rumours of the Western Reds Take 2? Is that still on the cards?
There's probably a million reasons why not, and possibly more than a million people that might disagree. But someone I'd like to see could be Robbie Deans. He already knows about developing rugby in...
Something like the pitch at McGillivray goes up and to the right uniquely suiting the Western Force, and giving them a distinct advantage! I can hear them saying it now.
Yeah, and what was up with the comments along the lines that the Force just won because they had played more games together. No, the Force just played really well!
If they're worried about that then...
It would be unusual for RA to look inwardly at a problem.
Although I wouldn't miss Cheika's protestations from the coaches box, if they did decide on a change.
.... and to treat WSR like it's a feeder competition for Super Rugby... or else they won't sanction the competition. RA aren't seeing opportunities for the good of the game, an opportunity to develop...
What a great game. It was great to see so many people staying around at the end of the game for autographs as well. Hopefully it's a bit of reassurance to everyone involved about how much World...
I'm not sure how it would work, but I'd like to see a marquee "team" spot reserved in the competition. This marquee team could change each week, or be only there for part of the competition. For...
Yeah, I had to include the statistics to be fair. But the circumstances around that game weren't exactly fair.
I liked the article, but I thought this was quite funny.
"Matches will be of varying quality and, with no overall mechanism to ensure equalisation, there is high potential for disparity between the...
Yeah, but why pick a fight? Do we really want or care about having the likes of Israel Folau playing for the Western Force, or would we be better developing our own players? Let the ARU have...
Really loved the dragon dance at the beginning of the game. The shows at the beginning also highlight that WSR is bringing together so many people and sharing so many different cultures from...
Wow, that is a frightening statistic. It does feel like we're in a transition year at the moment though. Hopefully once WSR starts up fully next year there'll be an opportunity to start to claw that...
He'll be just biding his time. Hoping that the controversy will just blow over, and he can rise again from the ashes....
like a phoenix.
Or Kim Jong-un.
Cameron Jong-un, an evil dictator?
All I can say is that I think the Rebels, and Australian Rugby, will be better off without him. Too much in the past the focus has been on individual brilliance, rather than team culture. I feel like...
