Last year’s Wallabies!!!
New coach, new systems, there may be bugger all this year.

'Went straight through us': Blues put 50 on Force as scrum issues return

Always subjective I guess.
As long as there is a panel seeing things differently and judging incidents in rugby and guessing intent there will always be criticism from all concerned.
Personally if it is serious enough they shouldn’t return until the injured player returns. That would make them think twice.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of humor Furry.
Except is it sarcasm when it might be true 😔

Yep, worth every penny of 1.2 Million

I think most teams have realised that the Dura aren’t a team to rest players against.
So not surprising to see a strong Blues bet them comfortably.

Back to earth? Drua's run of Super Rugby success ends with big loss to Blues in 2024 season opener

Fair points you make John, but I see the the front row as the target.
Taukei’aho is certainly world class, but I’m not convinced he is enough.

The biggest hurdle standing in Chiefs' way to claiming first Super Rugby title since Dave Rennie's side a decade ago

This issue is the greatest concern for Rugby.
How to address it?
Identifying and recovery periods are a step forward but with this is a contact sport and it is always going to happen as it is played.
The game may have to be changed so dramatically it is unrecognizable as Rugby.
We may change tackle techniques over time by getting the tackle lower, but then there is the tackler themselves. This is the area where a lot serious contact is missed. They are as at risk as the person being tackled. No one seems to be looking at that to closely or close enough.
The thing that is really pi–ing me off is, when a tackler is sent from the field the person that was tackled plays on. If it’s deemed to enough to send a player, where is the duty of care for the other.
As for the card system, WR needs to realize that this at this point is killing the game.
I’m not against the cards, but I do think the 20-minute stand down and then a replacement is the way forward. Not sure why they can’t see that after it was trialled and after the WC and 6 Nations this year. We can’t have the result predetermined.

The Wrap: Concussion is a key area where Australian rugby can become a leader, not a follower

'Not expecting miracles': Schmidt tempers Wallabies hopes as coach outlines No.1 priority

All you say is true Harry except with a new coach, a new team, a new game plan and at home with a point to prove.
We have all seen the Wallabies get hammered and then either win or get with in a score of winning.
I guess it’s ok for some to have a low to medium bar after the last few years as long as the Wallaby set up is much higher.

Progression is not always in a positive direction OO. Or is that regression.
Anyway it’s only up for your boys going forward.
With no skin in the game I’m excited to watch it unfold.

Why is one win a pass mark.

Come on Rob I hope you’re not the one that loads that single straw that hurts our camel 😂

I like all above except there would be more chance of humidity than humility.

'Not expecting miracles': Schmidt tempers Wallabies hopes as coach outlines No.1 priority

WTF 😔
I certainly don’t come to these pages for commonsense. 😱
If this continues I’m out. 👎

Decision time: Clubs queuing up to pounce on Rebels' best as Rugby Australia given warning over in demand Wallabies

Scotland should feel aggrieved
Yep Hoy that could be said.
I remember that game, I had other words to say about that 😡

'Why would I want to?': Cheika's take on Schmidt, his plans for 2027 World Cup, and the job he has no interest in

Im going with Chiefs or Blues.
Only if the Highlanders plane crashes on a snowy mountain and they starting eating each other. 😱
We don’t really have the depth for that carry on.

Boring, slow Rugby has lost its mojo and needs a makeover - here's some ways to get it back in fashion

Let the mind games begin ... What Razor's expecting to see from Joe's Wallabies

Those fears ramped up after the RA board was shown the Rebels’ financial situation late last year, where they were horrified by what they saw.
This statement has the throwing stones or take a look in the mirror smell about it 😔

Rebels told they will play Super Rugby in 2024 but future on shaky ground as voluntary administration looms

Holly S–t Coke
Don’t let Jacko hear you say that 😱
But I think your right.
He absolutely the next in line and baring not playing at 10 for Chiefs it is all up him.
