    Not sure what Twiggy said or what he committed to when he spoke to the boys other than "he is supporting the Force going forward"...... but very keen to find out (he says hopefully)

    Couldn't hear much in the middle of the crowd, people just going off every time Hodgo's face came up on the big screen was bloody brilliant

    They don't care about Twiggy and his money. They don't care about the alliance agreement. They don't care about arbitration. They don't care about WA. They don't care about rugby.

    All they do care about is getting rid of the force and giving money to some whinging bastards in the guise of it being for grass roots rugby.
    You are right. Problem for the ARU is that this is now spiralling out of control. Who knows where it will end.

    I think that since twiggy can fund the entire ARU with what he's pledged to give to CHARITY this year, he can probably have an impact.

    I'd begin with some good forensic accountants to find out what has happened with clones 28 million dollars.

    After that, pay for court costs and whatever else is needed to win the legal battle, then underwrite own the force to ensure that every share that isn't purchased in the public offer is bought for him (that one is likely to make some financial sense anyway.

    And that's just what he can offer with money, the man also has significant influence in business and politics.

    Hard to sell when the blues have more points than the brumbies (I think) Cut the rebels or the Reds, they both cost too much and don't perform, or cut the tahs and don't offer contracts to their players, that should improve the wallabies.

    Just watched Hoiles on Fox toeing the ARU line.

    When asked after the game and Twiggys involvement should the Force stay?

    Its not performance or financial, its going to be who the ARU can get rid of"

    UNREAL!
