It seems that successful teams are picking and building a full-game strategy for 23 players.
Not just a 15 player game with replacements.
Quite looking forward to re-building of the WF SR franchise.

Wow Sheek...surely you must have been excited and pleasantly surprised about something in your life???? :)

Fantastic Barbarians rugby.

Skelton is still a highly paid thug/lifter (as he can't jump) who has no comprehension of the Barbarians' culture/ethos/history.

Ralston has already announced that he's going to Connacht next year.
I hope we can keep Michael - he's got so much potential and loved his impact when he got scarce game time.
Would expect him to...

Exciting isn't it as we must have have a big number of new recruits still to come.

Sorry IF

No inside info/leak here.

Conner was part of the Academy this year, has been selected in the U20's Wallabies and I reckon he's a fine young man .
I rate him highly as a high potential...

Fantastic to see us building depth across all positions.
Williams has that little bit of mongrel who can cover Lock and Back Row and provide options while players such as Jackson Pugh, Luke Callan,...

Solid performer, with a bit of mongrel, and those 3 years make a difference.

Wells has performed well this year and IMO showed good on-field leadership.
Brings a lot of experience to counter the...

Two local lads. Keep up the excellent work Hodgo!!

These discussions and Cully's ongoing comments totally ignore that we've got into this place due to gross mismanagement by Rugby Australia which totally wasted the $350 million war chest created...

Totally agree with the comments about giving the broader squad exposure during the regular season.
And that has to mean more than<10 minutes of game time.
Doesn't mean broad level of changes....

I hear that Sitaleki Timani has signed on with Toulon and good luck to him.
These stupid Covid mandates in the workplace come at a cost.

Total lack of State Govt support for two ball codes that aren't AFL and are trying to recover from the impact of Covid-19??

So there's nowhere else to hold some rock concerts??

Looks like Kyle off to Lyon after SR 2022.

You keep saying this (4 times on this thread) but HOW do YOU know that this is true?

As far as I'm aware the Head Coach IS responsible for the rugby program all others are the enablers and support...

So much mis-information and rumour.
Faceless sniping is a waste of time, destabilising and the action of gutless people.
What's their experience/track record in running a professional rugby...

Totally agree as long as by "Australia" you mean the quality of players and referees.
The NZ and European games are better watching than all but a few games in SR Au.
Even Club rugby is more...

I reckon Academy member Siosifa Amone from Soaks has lots of potential but I agree we need an experienced THP.

My prediction is that there is going to be some serious recruiting and Hodgo and Cron will both have prices put on their heads by the East Coast elite. :)

I wouldn't be surprised if there are SR/Ra Covid restrictions on the WF squad which may limit their availability.

The WF SR squad is the only one not to have had a major Covid-19 outbreak so far.

Have just watched the game again to be sure of the impressions gained at the ground.

How do you gain or lose momentum in a rugby match?
By having a referee who ignores illegal entry into rucks.
