The Tahs have a shiny new stadium in the Eastern suburbs. A short Tesla drive for all the old boys clubs like Randwick, Sydney Uni and Eastern Suburbs.
With trams, busses and trains nearby for those in the cheap seats. With Sydney’s poulation there should be 20 to 30 thousand per game with a team worth watching!
We in the A.C.T. have to put up with the GIO dinasour while the local gov keep putting the new stadium in the too hard basket!
I hope Pocock and the independents get some change at the next election so things might change!!

Rugby Australia kicks off review into Waratahs as pressure mounts on Coleman ahead of Brumbies clash

Rugby Australia kicks off review into Waratahs as pressure mounts on Coleman ahead of Brumbies clash

Well old mate. That’s your opinion and as my old dad used to say opinions are like A holes…every body has one.

Everytime you post acomment it is about dropping the Brumbies! It’s getting old.
Per head of population the same percentage of A.C.T. residents go to the Brumbies games as do the NSW residents. With a population of over 8000000 people the Tahs should be knocking spectators back.
The Brumbies arn’t broke. The Tahs are broke that’s why the merged.

Yes a lot of the players come from other states and NZ. Mostly because the Brumbies saw potential in them and they were unwanted by their states. If they are not wanted in their home states then where they go? League? How is this not contributing?

NSW are mess and have been for decades.

Five things we learnt: Why Cheika could be the man to resurrect Tahs, Thor is the new Quade, value of sevens

With the Tahs. Why is it that the coach is to blame for losing?????

The 15 players on the field are to blame. He didn’t miss the field goal against Fiji or the shot at goal the week before or forget that a tap kick requires you to use your foot!

For too long now players from NSW think they are special! They think that once the old boys from their Shute Shield clubs get them their sky blue jerseys then the gold one comes automatically.
Look at the selections Cheika made with the WBs mostly from NSW. Pocock was better than Hooper, Quade was better than Foley but they didn’t play in theShute Shield or Tahs!

Australian Rugby should be run from a different city away from the Tahs with profesional managment and very little influence from the old boys club.

Get some player that actually want to play Rugby for the game and not how much they can get paid!

He would probably want Foley and Hooper back as well!

WTF?
How is any Aus team going to NZ rugby?
As for the ref….He missed the dangerous tackle on LL.
He missed the head high on TW when he scored then said that he didn,t see it? Could he have asked the TMO to review? HP should have been carded!
Awarded a penalty try and yellow card after a crooked lineout throw!
He also missed a lot of foul play / cynical play from both sides.

'It was brutal': Clutch Lolesio kicks Brumbies to 'Test match intensity' win over Reds as Wright shines again

It’s because islander kids don’t go to Shore or Joeys ect!
And they don;t play for Randwick or Syd Uni ect!

Their fathers. uncles long lost cousins didn’t play for Randwick, NSW or Australia!

'Something's not working': Tahs' Good Friday turns into a nightmare as Rebels recruit Daugunu seals upset win

Can’t drop 15! He’s the wonder kid the superstar. The greatest Wallaby player who has not played yet!
Marky is already lo0king for the Roosters change room.

If TT can’t improve, drop some wieght, get fitter and get over his injuries let him go.
CC should go overseas for a couple of years. It would do him good. If the Rebels fold I think he would find it hard to get a starting position in Australia.

I hope Joe is spending quality time with all the Super teams and not just hanging around Dacyville with the Tahs!

'We’d like to see Taniela stay': RA 'absolutely' want Thor for Lions, have 'contingency plans' for Rebels crisis

I don’t think it is a team!
There are 15 individuals in the same colours NOT playing as ateam! Thar’s why they arn’t winning.
Maybe they should worry more about the games in front of them instead of where they will be next year and how much they can push up their contracts!

Go Brumbies

Not sure that I agree.
Don’t like scrums. Don’t like mauls and want to change the points system?
Sounds like Rugby League?
Scrums should be made more of a contest by having the halfback feeding the ball straight and not rolling it straight to the second row. Making the hookers actually strike for the ball should keep the props tight and straight to support the hooker.

WR's mooted law changes are great - but show there's a hell of a lot wrong with rugby in 2024, and that sucks

On the upside is no one would get low enough to tackle Toole around the sternum.

'Can of worms': Rugby Australia introduce radical tackle law reform to protect players

It’s because most of the Sydney clubs dont want to travel further west than Eastwood. That’s why Parramatta and Penrith are left to struggle against League. I worked in Penrith a few years ago and my work had free tickets to their games. I couldn’t give the tickets to anyone local to go because they all had their own.
Maybe the people from inner Sydney have trouble getting to Penrith because their Teslas don’t have enough charge?

More Brumbie bashing!
The Tahs should have bigger crowds.. The population od Sydney alone must be at least 5 times more than Canberra. So if the Brumbies get 9000 crown then the Tahs should be getting 45000 to their games!
As you have stated before Bruce stadium is a sh*thole and I agree. But until our Government buils a shiny new stadium like Sydney it will have to do.

Rugby News: RA hunting missing million after contract blunder, Suaalii worth 10x more than his deal, McKellar's big win

I think he has too many handshake deals with himself!!!

Rugby News: RA hunting missing million after contract blunder, Suaalii worth 10x more than his deal, McKellar's big win

Not only is he going to pay for himself in his 1st Tahs game but, It’s going to a full house????
Maybe at Hamish’s house!

We all work for the governmaent! Thats what TAX is. Your Canberra bashing comments are about 30 years out of date! This is not a public serive city anymore. Maybe we should go back to 4 teams. HOW ABOUT WE CUT WARATAHS!!!
As for the Brumbies player not being local I think you better check your facts.
Lonegan brother, NL,TH,CMI. Just to name a few.

'What a shame': McLennan GONE as Rugby Australia name World Cup-winner chairman to bookend wild year

So your mates don’t follow the Brumbies! who gives a flying F*ck!
Canberra is a city Not a Government! I own my own trade company and have nothing to do with either the local or federal government!
If you look at the history of super rugbt the Brumbies were mostly made up from player that Qld and Nsw didn;t want! What players have they taken from the Waratahs?
M.Hooper,J.Harrison,A.Ashley Cooper and Tom Ross to name some of the player that started in the A.C.T, then went to NSW.
So according to you no area with a small population should get do decide their fate!
Are you really Hamish? Your not a biscuitman just the sad stale crumbs left in the bag!!!

'What a shame': McLennan GONE as Rugby Australia name World Cup-winner chairman to bookend wild year

I have lived in Canberra for over 30 years. I have followed the Brumbies from the start.
NOT once have I asked the government for a handout or anyone I know you tosser!
If you think QLD, ACT and WA are minor rugby states/territories you are deluded.
A.C.T./Brumbies covers almost all of southern NSW.
For a minor territory the Brumbies turn out a lot of Wallabies and have done since they started!
Why would they want to merge in with the ARU and be told how many of their Wallbies they can have?
RA have not told anyone of the details yet! They may want to cut or merge a team! More details are required.
Maybe Waratahs and Rebels ahould merge and play half of their home games in eash state?

So if the mutaneer unions are axed does that leave NSW to play with themselves? Maybe they might start winning!

Gleeson is probably there for PS because NSW don’t have enough players in the squad!

CONFIRMED: 34-man Wallabies squad for Bledisloe series against All Blacks as trio axed in shake-up

So your strategy would be to drop almost every player and build a new team in a week!
