I live and breath rugby. Australian rugby WILL return to its golden glory. Lifelong fan of the Waratahs.

Thank you Roar for posting some good news about Aus Rugby (including the Tahs only narrowly losing to the Blues), instead of harping on about dramatic garbage around NRL players or Eddie Jones. I hope that if the Aus teams remain competitive for the rest of the season, we’ll see more positive analytical articles from The Roar.

So the guy was just appointed, and his appointment is justified. Why should there be immediate critical commentary?
COMMENT: In trading Greatest Showman for 'boring' and 'pragmatic' Sleepy Joe, RA gambling with game's future
Joe Schmidt is the best news for Australian Rugby in years, and I hope to god he remains for some well needed consistently, no matter what gameplan he uses.
I’m tired of articles like this that lean on bullcrap meaningless commentary just for a grabbing headline. The apparent “boring” “pragmatic” characteristics of Schmidt means nothing until the Wallabies start playing.
It’s dramatic journalism like this that just stirs negative sentiment, and it’s the last thing Australian Rugby needs.
I don’t think Roar serve the best interests of Rugby Australia anymore.

Injuries sustained during a game can be a symptom of overloading in training. Such as Cooper’s Achilles injury.
Wallabies casualty ward: Fainga'a concussion means Rennie is missing a staggering 17 players
How else do you explain the staggering injury toll you ask? It may be that Australian Rugby needs to examine strength and condition protocols. In elite sport, it is the tiny percentages that matter. Could it be that Australian Rugby’s training formula is slightly off with regard to frequency and intensity? Is enough being done to minimise the risk of injury and ensure players have appropriate balance of rest and exertion? With my limited experience in elite sport strength and conditioning, individual player’s are monitored closely for their fatigue, training intensity and loading volumes to identify if players are overloaded. I should hope that the high performance staff have appropriate awareness of this.

I really don’t understand why Hannigan is selected – his ability in the line out? He clearly lacks physicality in contact and rucks. I recall Hannigan falling off tackles when we played Scotland.
Maybe it’s because Timani’s fitness isn’t quite there.
The Wallabies changes I’d like for Bledisloe 2, please
Who says Coleman’s time is coming to an end? Christy Doran says so.
Another article in the same tier of garbage as news.com.au, negative subject matter with no focus on some of the positives we have seen in this years Super Rugby.
