This weekend the Wallabies travelled to Argentina after a horror few weeks, and promptly lost a very winnable game. First and foremost I should…
One area that Ewen McKenzie will surely be looking to improve on is the kicking from his team. Going through the performance in Dublin,…
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…
It’s comical that a team running dead last can still be in the hunt for the finals with 3 rounds left.
Force kill off Waratahs' final hopes once and for all as Donno comes back to haunt old side
If you’re going to be pedantic (but correct), your three word comment needs to be meticulous.
You’re missing a full stop.
'You write the rules, you f--king idiots': The Test doco lifts lid on Aussies' response to Bairstow stumping, hilarious quip
By logic-optional, did you mean humans in general?
Kells, Wright, Donno, Jock or Kurtley? What Joe Schmidt's past tells us about the Wallaby fullback sweepstakes
Selected? He has to be captain! What has anybody in the history of the game done that’s grubbier than probing some guy’s rusty trombone without at least buying him a coffee.
Mug lairs, thugs, grubs, nigglers and smug buggers - who are the players you really love to hate?
Surely if you selected a team from these guys, you’d have Phil Gould as coach. Head merchant banker.
You’d have to poach the other code and nab Peter Fitz to find someone to rival him in the narcissism stakes.

Fair enough. Maybe I won’t 😁
'Perhaps it's surgery': Reds win ugly over Rebels to keep top four hopes alive as big-name Wallabies forced off
I missed the first 30 minutes but I wouldn’t say that was ugly at all, and there was some real quality on display. Tah supporter but I enjoyed the game.
Flook continues to impress despite getting absolutely flattened twice. I like Ikitau but Flook is probably giving Schmidt a good headache.
McReight was busy as usual (Michael who?)
Campbell showed good instincts in his try and Paisami showed his starch constantly. Tim Ryan showed quality as well.
Looking forward to seeing what kind of team Schmidt puts together, tempered of course by feeling the same optimism for 2 decades.. and yeah we know it’s the hope that kills you 😂

I don’t know that he had a lot going on before the head knocks
Is Carter Gordon really an NRL prospect... and which Australian rugby legends could have made the switch too?
Can’t be any sillier than calling your son Mavrik
Geez couldn’t even spell it right but what would you expect out of Mark Geyer

You’re kidding aren’t you? NRL is home base for ridiculous names
Jaeman Salmon
Mavrik Geyer (pleeeassssse, was his dad coked off his melon when he named him….. 😂 )
About 400 Jaydens and Tysons
Dane G… nah wait I won’t go there
Carter’s name is probably a little too upmarket for NRL, he’s a blue blood at heart. We know his manager isn’t serious because who in their right mind would switch to NRL and play for the Titans. A wind up if I’ve ever seen one 😂

In general I’m sceptical about people’s motives to litigate, especially for physical consequences of playing a heavy contact sport.
But being told not to drink water during a running session? Certainly want to hear more about that..
'Everything got taken from me': Former Manly prop's legal action over excessive training could be tip of the iceberg
I think there’s a simple solution, just make it a condition of immigration that rugby allegiances switch automatically.
Has anyone been to Bondi or Coogee lately? They are essentially exclaves of Auckland bro. We have more than enough New Zealanders in the country to wrestle back rugby dominance.
The insurmountable problem facing Australian rugby in a doomed rivalry with New Zealand
The Titans 😂 😂
Go for it mate 😂
Wallabies' young gun mulling NRL switch as Rebels' future continues to cloud picture
Good luck to the guy, and I totally understand professional players these days needing to maximise their earnings while they are able.
But take me back to the days when being a Wallaby was the pinnacle, and heading overseas was really only considered if you were no chance of wearing the gold jersey..
Exclusive: Wallabies star weighing up big move to England
The World Number 3 are going to beat the World Number 9.
Cutting edge stuff.
Super Rugby shows that the Bledisloe Cup isn't going anywhere - one selection could give the Wallabies hope
Looked like a damned good hit to me.
'Purely coincidental': Chiefs coach defends bruiser after ANOTHER late shot leaves Tah flattened - but was it legal?
“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.
UPDATE: RA say they were blindsided over Rebels' finances, reject private consortium claim as administrator backs club's survival
KPM what is your plan for making the Rebels profitable again?

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
“I’m always happy for Tahs to lose”
“with the team and organisation not thriving, that’s affecting us all”
Comical.
