Burey's running made me wonder whether Donno at 10 is the best idea. Donno's kicking is great (although Kuenzle finished the season with a 100% record, I think!) but should be looking to have Burey...

Although, if Drua beat the Rebels in the early match, that's moot anyway. If either the Highlanders or Chiefs win, the Brumbies will be fighting for a top 2 spot.
Strachan was appreciated by the coaching staff here, but his history of concussion meant that it was considered too risky giving him a contract. I don't know enough about head trauma to know whether...
He has a point. In the NFL (or at least it used to be the case) the balls weren't provided by the refs, each side provided the balls their offense played with. I think it was 9 balls in total,...
It's not like Tupou can claim it's the first time, either. He's got form in poor tackling.
And probably not going to improve this weekend. The long weekend will mean some people will get out of Perth, and the forecast ~40mm of rain might keep those that do stay here indoors.
I'd prefer a 22 game, full home and away season (with a couple of byes for a 24-week regular season) and then a finals only consisting of the top 4 (possibly top 6). But that's mainly because I'd...
Two rounds out and how it’s like to end up (IMO):
Blues, 1st, 50 pts, Crusaders (A), Chiefs (H)
Should beat the Crusaders, even if they are improving. Should beat the Chiefs, although they may...
Hopefully Potter is attending training (in between physio/recovery sessions) and watching how Beale plays.
I think he's someone who'd benefit from a season in the NPC; or possibly a loan to someone like Agen in the French 2nd division, like DHP.
I'm not sure if he'd sign a fourth time with Rugby WA
At this rate RA are going to have to cut the Rebels and move the entire playing staff to Sydney to field a team for next year!
Probably not quite our absolute 1st choice front row, but close to it for the first time in week 13!
Just watched the replay and after White gets the yellow for kicking the ball away, we go down the other end and the Fijian's give away a penalty on their own try-line, and their scrum-half kicks the...
The Badger probably could have swapped codes back in his day as he was always a willing tackler and runner
So in our first game this year, Pearce got a yellow, which the TMO upgraded to a red, but the review during the week downgraded back to a yellow. Under the guidelines above, would it still have been...
He needs it - he's 6 inches taller
(Is there a smilie for Dad jokes?)
Not trying to give excuses beforehand, but the fact that the selected 23 only has 3 players not in training camp in January is a positive boon for us this season!
Yes, the Terms & Conditions says you have to pick up within 2 days or they start charging you $12 a day storage, but they don't mention anything about whether they can arrange delivery for you (nor...
Maybe we tried to sign Pone but he didn't want to come west. It's not always a conspiracy against us!
Wasn't that an issue with Sharpie? He had a problem with one shoulder (presumably the right) and so could only play tighthead lock (5) rather than loosehead lock (4). When he got picked to play at...
Maybe the Chiefs will underestimate us and rest some All Blacks.
Although they've only played 1 match after a bye week and don't have a hard game the week after to give a reason to rest players.

Beating the Tahs was definitely up there.
Olowefela was 2021, when we had that weird Australian competition and then the matches with NZ following when the Australian teams won 2 of 25 matches. ...
FIFY
You mean losing to us was their wake-up call?
