It’s not under10s

'Purely coincidental': Chiefs coach defends bruiser after ANOTHER late shot leaves Tah flattened - but was it legal?

Yeah he should be applauded and admired. Who are these soft commentators that now want to reduce the force in tackles. It is a contact sport.

It was a head clash you clown

I’ll put $20 on it%. They will make the 8, pretty hard not to and then it is a new comp.

Yeah your shoulder always hits first and then the arms wrap. It was a great tackle.

That’s what happens when your slow and predictable you get creamed by breakaways in perfectly legal tackles. This hope by fans and commentators that the opposition will get cards so you team wins is a sad reflection on tahs supporters now. Hope the ref wins you the game. Chiefs deservedly showed the tahs zero respect.

Great article again. Do you think Frost and THooper have the post Eddie wallaby World Cup blues. They seem to have dropped a lot.

100% Swain and Swinton are great aggressive players

Great article, the Brumbies can work this out but have shown a major weakness that NZ sides can exploit.

You need fans and grassroots to pay for the ridiculous player and coaches wages. No crowds no money it ain’t complicated. RA and the rest of Australia can’t afford to bail out rich investors so they get their money back and then dissolve.

UPDATE: RA say they were blindsided over Rebels' finances, reject private consortium claim as administrator backs club's survival

Tigers upset for me. The rest the favourites.

Super Rugby teams round 10: Marky Mark replaces Pietsch, Rebels' LSL blow, Flook boost for Reds, Alaalatoa to start

Swinton & Ned are playing their best rugby, will go well overseas especially in a great club environment. Yeah Super is now a development squad, the best are elsewhere, it’s lost its lustre of the best vs best. Plus it is an unfair comp and is seen as just trial games for the international sides rather than a comp itself. The sides even rest players because the national coaches say so. It really is Mickey Mouse.

Wallabies in danger of losing Hanigan to ambitious French club just as forward enters his prime

Twas and co were telling us that castle sacking Folau would keep all the sponsors, bring the fans back and be great in bringing the LGbitq crowd to rugby. Castles decisions were going to save and progress rugby here. How was that theory going. It just gave Folau 8 million. RA have been making completely insane decisions for 25 years due to diversification.

'Easy to throw stones': RA chairman hits back at mudslingers' 'hypocrisy' after calls for AGM board cleanout

Diverse but know nothing about sport.

'Easy to throw stones': RA chairman hits back at mudslingers' 'hypocrisy' after calls for AGM board cleanout

Yeah look at South Africa for starters. Have left Super and going gang busters. Can’t lose. First step get a tribal club comp that fans can go to. I’m a genius put me on the board. You need fans RA , you need fans, drum that into your skulls, you need the grassroots back supporting the game. You need the grassroots more than a thousand coaches.

'Easy to throw stones': RA chairman hits back at mudslingers' 'hypocrisy' after calls for AGM board cleanout

Just get rid of the high performance unit as it ain’t high performing. RA is just a gravy train for ex wallabies and their mates, improving the grassroots or rugby spectacle is inconsequential. Show me the money.

Let’s continue as usual till the Super sides rack up a$bill in debt and then think about changing. It’s time for this circus to end. Bring on the revolution. Professional rugby here is dead. All the supporters have gone underground only a revolution will see the grassroots and supporters come back.

'Definition of madness': Rugby reform must start with total cleanout of RA board - and this should happen next

I trust them more than RA. Twas is the ostrich with his head in the sand not wanting to face reality and expecting players to be paid a bucket load even though there is no audience . We need change a Revolution is required here if we are to compete.

Twas , subbies is lesss serious than the Shute. I don’t know why you would want to kill off the Shute shield as that is where the rebels get most of its players. Criticising and demonising the Sydney comp and heralding the Vic comp as the future of rugby is ridiculous. It’s like Roarers critising private schools. Without them rugby wouldn’t have any players

'Definition of madness': Rugby reform must start with total cleanout of RA board - and this should happen next

Well the Shute supplies 70% of super players
