Stay out of my way. Or you'll pay. LISTEN to what I say.

I do agree – that is such a nice blue on the Chargers 👍 👍

What a bunch of old romantics.
…and I gotta say – I’M ONE OF THEM!
There will hopefully be emotional scenes as the Force tip up the defending champs in Perth.
At least that’s what I’m imagining, as it’ll be way after my bed time to watch it live. zzzzzzz……

Is anyone else seeing this like rugby’s version of the board game RISK?

Can hear them at Stan HQ:
“Tomorrow… we take Major League Rugby!!”

Yeah Billy can play 15 and this new kid Ruben Love is an outside back prospect as well.
Haven’t seen him play, but there’s good things being said about him.

Hang in there mate.
I thought we were going to be awful last year – especially after getting belted by the Stormers in the first game (back in the good old days…).
But that Jason Holland did some really great stuff with them, though it’ll be even harder this year without TJ.
Beauden would’ve been looking on thinking – “OK, so NOW you go get a rock scrum and set piece” 😡
I miss BB and TJ…and Ben Lam for that matter. What a player.

I’ve seen Koroi used mainly at fullback or sometimes 10. My guess is that he’ll have a better shot in the outside backs, as those positions are a bit more up in the air.
Guessing they’d start the season with 15 Mitch Hunt, 14 Solomon Alaimalo, 11 Jona Nareki, possibly with Koroi as a good utility off the bench?
Would love to see him get a crack!

Not a Blues fan, but would be happy for someone – ANYONE – to knock off the Crusaders 😔

Good call.
They have had a charmed run for the past three years.
Didn’t take full advantage though…

Thanks Paul, now that you mention it – I guess I might just have to.
I do have an idea for a draft article which is far less serious (actually more stupid), but yeah happy to wade into the waters of a proper rundown too.
Would be awesome to do one of those fan mock drafts, where each team picks in order – that’d be fun (though WAAAYYYYYY too hard to co-ordinate) 😂 😂
Looks like your boys could be letting Juju walk?

Love the positive affirmation!
Not a Waratahs fan as such, but living in Sydney, so keen to see the Tahs to do well and get people engaging with the game.
I reckon you’ve got a real star on your hands with this kid Will Harrison – looking forward to seeing what he does this year.

Looking forward to the Tahs’ season? Nah, yeah

Good call ferg.
As a neutral supporter, I don’t think I’ve ever been so juiced for a Superbowl!
An inter-generational clash which is rarely seen in any sport.
Bring.
It.
On.

This Super Bowl is the closest thing you'll ever get to LeBron versus MJ

CHOO-CHOOO!!!
Super Rugby’s hype train is rollin’…
Bloody awesome breakdown @Jez, especially given the lack of announced squads for certain teams.
Any word on why these squad announcements are so late?
Seems to me if you’re trying to compete, it will be extremely tough if the Aus squads are only announced when NZ sides are already knee-deep in pre-season training??

How do the Super Rugby AU squads stack up?

Chiefs v Bucs Superbowl

Mate, I could not agree more with that – def too early to start.
I would be even MORE excited if it started later (as would a lot of people), but I wanted to get us all up to speed (and maybe even a little bit amped), cos there’s really not much else being put out there for it 😔

Maybe NZR should’ve just renamed them OVERLORDS??

Pretty curious about the whole situation myself, so I’ll do some digging and see what I can track down…

There was certainly something about the footage of Ben sitting on the bench looking with Pouncey. Looked like he’d just seen the end of his career. But then again, that could’ve just been the lighting (can’t trust anything these days!).
See Philly gave Doug Pederson the flick too?!
Good job, I think he set fire to a number of things in that last game…..including his contract 👎

I’m a little bit afraid of the Ravens. I know they’d have to do it from the ‘outside lane’, but it looks like Harbaugh is getting them going at just the right time.
Hope they don’t though – I’ll cheer for the Chiefs to repeat, cos Mahomes is just amazing. If not them – maybe the Bills?

Go, Christos and the Browns!!!
I need to issue a CORRECTION too sorry team – the Colts are playing Buffalo NOT Tennessee 😱
Wish I could say I was writing before my morning coffee….but…. I don’t even drink coffee!
Anyways, glad that’s off my conscience, enjoy the wild card round 😂 😂
