Too many 5s given here when i looked at my scores. Nobody standing up/out in the forwards/backs is a real problem. I’ll be interested to see how they pick a side against Argentina at some stage. Nothing against Ned Hannigan but what has happened with Pete Samu?

VOTE: Wallabies Bledisloe 3 DIY player ratings vs New Zealand

Crazy idea but what if the codes in each state could unite for a tournamant? Call it Crosscoders. Make a Show out of it and let coaches pick the players from a draft system of some sort. Pick a venue and then let sides battle it out over a weekend playing League 9s AFLX Rugby 7s and a limited form of football (Futsal?)

As sport goes into lockdown, what do you want to read on The Roar?

Yeah Stillmissit. love to see an article post-Corona. Come up with a narrative or timeline into the future of not just Rugby but also other codes. Doesn’t hurt to dream.

The title of this article needs to be Rugby Australia needs a spring clean!

Time for a well overdue Wallabies spring clean

Just got the last minute offer for free tickets via the Premiers sports challenge!

League dressed to the Nines and ready to dazzle

Good analysis as always Nick. I don’t think that having Hooper and Pocock in the lineout always works. Look at how Retallick picked off the Wallaby lineout when Hooper was jumping. Perhaps a backrow of 6 Dempsey 7 Pocock and 8 Naisarani would work? Hooper on the bench.

All is not lost: Four quick fixes for the Wallabies forwards

We used to play a game called speedball during PE at school except using a soccer ball. Heaps of fun but not sure how it looked for spectators

AFL's version of T20 cricket in the works

Keep ice skating up hill Malo. Interesting to note that Pulver said that the third tier comp is back on the agenda using existing academies.
Look,the clubs will have their place and my suggestion about the Waratahs being the Sydney Tahs is just that. A suggestion! Sorry if I offended your sense of traditionalism!

A different solution to the 'third-teir' dilemma

For ARC to work I think we have to work beyond State and territorial boundaries Soapits!

A different solution to the 'third-teir' dilemma

At the end of the day it has been 5 years since the inception of the ARC. Although poorly planned by the ARU we have to chalk this up as a learning experience and hope that the powers that be can seen in the validity of Bretts points. Look at all the fine talent the ARC unearthed. The potential for not only players but referees, coaches and administrators is obvious under a third tier system. I just wish that we had a battle plan that would assist in making this dream happen. Come on ARU! Give us something!

The ARC five years on: What might have been

Hey guys. I think that although there maybe some options at 12 and 13 besides Oconnor and McCabe. The point is that this is a exciting attacking side that probably should be looked at by the Wallabies. No they aren’t the biggest but certainly the creativity
Of having Cooper and O Connor at 1st and 2nd receivers is a huge bonus. Why not try this combo? Having Beale at the back also offers another headache for the opposition to worry about.

Wallabies centres must dare to dare

Eventually something like this maybe possible.
But start out small and add one side
To the existing mix might Be possible in the short term.
100 odd super rugby players spread out over 6 Franchises
Could be feasible. Compete with the other codes by
Getting Western Sydney up and running as well as showing
Games on FTA

ARC only answer for rugby's third tier

Why not add the Western Sydney Rams
To a tournament after Super Rugby with
The existing franchises?
Start off small with 6 teams playing on a
Home and away basis. That’s 30 games
Of Rugby that we didn’t previously have.
