Western Force lock Izack Rodda says Saturday’s return game felt like his debut again after...

Agreed, you would think it an easy enough thong to make 5 x Aus v 5 x NZ plus Drua v Moana if they wanted to.
May even be a greater justification for the Super Round.

Lovely to have a plan, I have plans too, question is, after 3 to 4 years since proposed announcement has any of it hit the ground in a meaningful manner?
My observation from the sideline, but with...

Doesn't really go into the new ruling that saw the big increase last RWC though does it?

I wonder if this (below) is why RA dropped the Australia A program for awhile?
If so, desperately need to...

So I assume this was discussed on TWF back in 2020 while I was otherwise occupied?
Has the sausage resembled the sizzle?
The +$1m/yr hitting the ground?
Any sign of our Ambassador Pocock?

I think most of us would appreciate this level of transparency around injury status for any of the teams we follow, perhaps with a written list and expected return to availability date-

When the Reds run out for Super Rugby Pacific's Anzac Day Weekend, they'll be wearing more than the Queensland crest on their chests.

Last week, the...

The Wallaroos are embracing the 'curious' atmosphere that will await them in camp under new coach Jo Yapp.

Yapp will name her first Wallaroos...

If only you had linked it in to the Derby you could have been on the caviar!

Rare air indeed!

Not sure he would qualify on residency in time having been away a couple of times since joining?

Western Force lock Sam Carter says the side’s 37-15 win over the Crusaders on Saturday showed a...

Haven't heard/seen a figure, but seemed better than recent matches on the screen.
Hard to compare, because Lang Park is so much bigger, but was competitive with that crowd to look at on the...

After Round 9, starting to get some clear leaders emerging-
(My own work taken from watching, apologies if any errors)

Cale 15

Paisami 14
Wright T 14

Daugunu 10
McWright 10

Posties

Malone
Paisami 3
Carter 2
Donaldson 1

Turinui
Paisami 3
Princep 2

To be honest, I had written him off, but have been impressed with both him and Daugunu this year which really surprises me.

I'm just stunned opposition media and disgruntled supporters haven't made more of the chocolate side of Wallaby sponsorship.
Braced for it when first announced but so far nothing.

Massive news...

Thankfully history doesn't look at the asterisks re only three teams to pick from!

I think Coxson will probably feel (actually, I'm guessing that individual probably couldn't give a shit!) a bit...

You don't need the news mate, you just need TWF! :P

There's two "types" of Hooker.
The classic Cannon-Smit-Fitzpatrick heavy hitter that Paega-Amosa resembles.
Then you have the Paul-George-Cronin model of mobile "extra #7" that Horton epitomises....

Half time break of the Stan telecast there is a pretty good montage of last seasons Grand Final day, imagine some familiar faces for the Clubland punters amongst us.

Was really pleased to see the effort that the lads put into this match, would like to watch again before getting too carried away with individuals, as it wasn't perfect by a long shot.
I dare say...
