The England versus Australia match overnight was a cracker for a number of reasons. Neither country enjoys losing to the other at any point,…

Australian rugby is in the doldrums. As evidence, you only need to look at the level of excitement generated by beating the 10th-ranked side…
KPM what is your plan for making the Rebels profitable again?
UPDATE: RA say they were blindsided over Rebels' finances, reject private consortium claim as administrator backs club's survival
Right, so the Directors oversaw the franchise becoming a financial basket case and now they’ve ’generously’ offered to repay creditors, as part of an “Investor Group” 15 to 30 cents in the dollar to regain control of the franchise. Oh yeah, and they’d like a get out of jail free card for their serious directorial failings.
Am I reading this all wrong?

Noah’s a lightweight, pure and simple. He’s not up for the big boy stuff. Even with Carter Gordon’s kicking woes, I’d pick Gordon for the Wallabies in a heartbeat. He’s got mongrel dog in him.

Got the shingles real bad senior year, nearly didn’t graduate

The Tahs or Force catching them.
Is that really the yardstick?

So the Drua player received a smaller ban because..
He’s rubbish at throwing head butts?
'Not ideal': Reds star duo cop Super Rugby bans after red cards - but where's the consistency?
Let’s not get too excited. We conceded 40 points to the team running second last ahead of the Force 😁
'Last few years have been hell': Iceman 2.0 Harrison gets 'dream come true' in Tahs' stunning golden point win
Anyone who calls themself the boss. OMG I’m cringing for him.
Especially when it’s at Augusta, where Norman was responsible for the chokiest choke in all of chokedom.

Hey Roosters enjoy your new signing that cant even hold his place in the Horrortahs starting team 😂
Super Rugby teams round 8: Tahs drop Marky Mark, Kellaway returns for Rebels, HMP replaces Lynagh
Im a big fan of Carter Gordon’s starch but sadly his kicking is not even Super Rugby standard.
On the flip side, Lolesio is a sharpshooter and that is highly valuable but does not dominate contact and weakens the 10 channel.
The only way of resolving this is selecting someone who can kick. You can’t fix the Lolesio issue.
I would therefore select Lonergan who is in the conversation anyway based on his form as a halfback.
I hope Schmidt feels the same.
Five things we learned: One area Gordon must fix to convince Wallabies boss, ABs bruiser should be on notice
If they’re getting the police involved then Lomani needs to answer some questions too. Seriously, that wasn’t rugby. That was straight up assault. I can’t believe how much focus is on a bunch of words from one boofhead (sticks and stones), rather than an act of violence that caused a serious head wound on a player. Where is all the outrage over that?
Drua 'shocked at racial abuse' as Lomani faces judiciary over Canham blow
Very disappointing.
I would have thought Jamie Soward, Josh Dugan or even Beau Ryan would have been more sensible choices for scrum coach than Cron.
At least that’s what my 2023 manual says.
'It can be something great': Schmidt turns to 'scrum doctor' as next step in Wallabies rebuild
At what point do we say, hey, this is a contact sport. Play at your own risk.
In the words of the sage and erudite Peter De Villiers, “why don’t we go to the nearest ballet shop, get some tutus and get a dancing shop going”
What’s next? Boxing where they can only hit people in the shoulders? MMA where nasty words are ok but making someone bleed results in a judiciary hearing?
I’m being facetious, but you can only sanitise a contact sport to a certain level is my point.
There are only two ways rugby can go from here - and there's no middle ground between physicality and safety
Wonder what Potgeiter is up to?
Five things we learnt: Why Cheika could be the man to resurrect Tahs, Thor is the new Quade, value of sevens

And if you’re going to play the age card mate, by the same logic, Joe Biden is Einstein. LOL.
Fair comment not coming from unfair commentators whining about rules they should know off by heart
The climate hasn’t changed..?
The 10 hottest years on record have been in the past 10 years. What’s that, random chance?

Reality hurts sometimes doesn’t it.

Actually to be fair Souths supporters probably span the whole political spectrum and then some. You’d have your craft beer swilling Albo worshippers and then you’d have your VB-longneck at 20 to 8 in the morning types who would be more at home at a MAGA rally

😂 No he’s the climate denier.

I don’t know if we need such a degree to have climate scientists but as there is a degree in climate science it follows that there are such things as climate scientists.

Just in case anyone had any doubt whatsoever:
“2000 Mules is a 2022 American conspiracist[4][5][6] political film from right-wing political commentator Dinesh D’Souza. The film falsely[7][8][9] claims unnamed nonprofit organizations supposedly associated with the Democratic Party paid “mules” to illegally collect and deposit ballots into drop boxes in the swing states of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin during the 2020 presidential election. D’Souza has a history of creating and spreading false conspiracy theories.”

“Be allowed to save the Rebels”
They’re the people that got the Rebels into bother in the first place.
What a strange old world.
