Gotta support those extensive Melbourne player pathways.

I think if it was full Home and Away, it'd make an 8 team finals more valid.

But you probably wouldn't need contrived, extended finals series after 22 rounds of pool play, and more if you're doing...

Additionally, local players get more time to work on their rugby by playing club rugby than those in the academy setup. Unfortunately, the common wisdom is that Perth Premier League is a lower...

Yes, but this contribution needs to be balanced with what other options we have available. Remember he was signed as injury cover for Harry Potter who filled 15 when Max Burey didn't do enough to...

ps I don't see any way of us making the 8 if we don't win 2 out of 2, which will be awesome, but also pretty bloody difficult.

Look, I get the argument about qualifying for finals is a joke. The Tahs are in with a shot STILL and they're solidly stuck in the Wooden Spoon with virtually no hope of raising off the floor.
...

I got the distinct feeling it's a "nothing decided yet" which could mean several things.

1 I want to stay, but the Force haven't made any moves yet.
2 The Force want me to stay but I'm still open...

Yes, but I'm rushing home from work to catch Hoiles on Between Two Posts.

I can't wait to see that muppet crying about how hard done by the Tahs were while simultaneously campaigning for the...

He was better last week, but still had trouble with dropping off tackles.

This week he fixed up the dropping off tackles bit. He played well.

Preaching to the choir mate

Yes, you make a fantastic, logical argument for a commonsense solution.Stephen Hoiles has Randwick connections, has won the most recent Shute Shield and has plenty of friends in snooty Sydney...

That will depend upon whether Stephen Hoiles, who is clearly angling for DC's job, wants them doesn't it?

I don't think you'll see that tolerated by a Queensland ref in quite the same way as a Kiwi ref.

I was worried last week when we had Mabey (NZ) reffing and Fiji playing, Fiji do like to play on...

I'm actually of the opinion that the scrum isn't as important as we're making it out to be. We've not had more than parity in the scrum in any of our wins this year, but we certainly have been...

I find myself wondering if this was arranged to secure a pair of votes at the AGM?

I will be heartily applauding him, not the jumper he's wearing, but him personally.

A little worried about the matchup Poolman vs Pietsch/Reilly, but I reckon we have parity or advantage everywhere else on the park.

Players who need to step up to beat their opposite
Willams vs...

also hope that he doesn't listen to the shills telling him he can get big minutes at franchise X when he's young enough to still want his minutes managed to ensure appropriate development.

Cron has bashed all the dumb kicking in almost every losing press conference, so the latter is a pretty good shout.

"welcome Nic, If you want to make the field even once this year, we need to have...

Surprised?

Yeah, well injury cover is a requirement in a modern sporting team.

Ok, so now that we've fixed the Wallabies selection problem, we need to get working on the war in the middle east, solving perpetual motion and free power then. at the end of the day, something hard....

I think Wells is a hard one. There appear to be so many undefinables there that makes the team perform better when he's on the park, despite not looking up to scratch in what he brings to the table....

Way to shut down conversation Palitu, nobody could possibly have anything to add to that!

Agreed on all points

If Aussie Joe is clever he'll pick a humongous first squad and whittle it down quickly.If he does I wouldn't argue most of your picks. Kurtley is a bit soon, given the quality of outside backs on...
