Wikipedia is the scourge of teachers, as it provides both hard information and general speculation. Browsing through the Super 14 page at Wikipedia, I saw that the Rebels (Australian rugby championship side) were put onto the roster as the Super 15 team.
As well as this, the Rebels page was changed to refer to it as the Super 15 team. I am still not sure of the team’s name, but I know that the new team was not the same entity as the ARC team.
This has to be a contentious issue to any of you Victorian rugby fans out there: good naming and branding is a must. But John O’Neil has come out and said he would prefer a new name, possibly chosen by the public.
Victoria as a State has a distinct lack of appropriate mascots, and it is hard to see, from a New South Welshman’s perspective, as to what an appropriate name could be.
I don’t like the Rebels name. But what’s everyone’s opinion on the team’s new name?
