NZ Rugby cant support 5 teams 😂

The Wrap: Rugby Australia gaslights Rebels staff and why ‘I Can’t Go For That’

Nobody would turn up to the revolution KPM

C’mon Geoff I think this is pretty obvious to see.

Couldn’t agree more. Great post.

The Rebels are 6th and the Force are last. You have a funny definition of competitive.

Yawn

Rebels' Super future hanging on creditors' Friday vote as Rugby Australia set to go against plan

Yes I dont recall the ATO ever acting “for the good of the game” or anything other to collect the Tax it’s owed.

It’s such a BS bluff being called from Widdup et al. They’re cooked, they know they’re cooked, but they’re desperately trying to blame others for their own incompetence, hoping that they can wriggle out of their responsibility.

…but still expecting RA money to top up their operations.

Exactly

It is not RA’s franchise. They don’t own it or run it.

There is zero evidence for the above statement.

RA are in the wrong for punting an organisation that traded whilst insolvent for 5 years?

Forget all the emotive arguments about Rugby in Victoria. If there’s no money to support a 5th team, then there’s no money to support a 5th team.

Give thanks to The Lord, for he is good 🙂

Laurie Fisher confirmed on Team Joe as Wallabies invited to Ireland's 150th celebrations

I seem to recall that law variation as standard play in the 90s. You had to wait until your lazy winger or fullback ran you on before you could take a step forward??

Rugby News: Wallabies legend's son set for Italy Test move, RA want daytime Bledisloe, Force re-sign coach, Super Rugby law change

This is no reflection on Rob Leeota and it’s great he’s been able to achieve what he has so far in his career. But I would genuinely like to see all of these passionate Victorian rugby fans he speaks of. When I look at the games, I dont see anybody. Keeping the Rebels afloat for the benefit of the Victorian Rugby community at face value seems like a noble goal, but it would help A LOT if this same community would attend a game!

'Want to show rugby isn't dead in Melbourne': Rebels skipper's fighting words as Eddie calls for 'hard decisions'

Men and women on the same contracts

Cricket had the money to pay their players.

If there isn’t enough money to pay a full time coach, then there isn’t enough money to pay a full time coach. If there isnt enough money to pay for full time contracts, then there isnt enough money for that either.
RA has provided a timetable for when these contracts are going to be viable and I’m sorry if it upsets everyone that they’re not happening now. But in order to pay for full timers requires money. Money that isnt being generated in the womens game. So the only place that money is coming from is from a strong and successful Wallabies and Super Rugby program. Poor results leads to bad crowds leads to less sponsorship leads to less money.
If we are wanting our womens players and staff to go full time then we all need to hope to hell we have a good World Cup campaign and strong showing in Super Rugby otherwise nobody, man or woman is going to get paid at all.
It’s dire, it sucks, but that’s the reality of it.

Agreed

In the previous two iterations of this competition there has ben NOTHING LIKE 100% support from Brisbane Rugby supporters. That’s nonsense.
And good to hear you’d support your team – particularly now as that support gets exposed to a wider audience and your brand becomes synonymous with a successful entity. The clubs exposure grows as does your product awareness and becomes more valuable as a result.

RA's target of a third tier in 2024 raises a whole heap of questions in desperate need of answers

I’d take 50% of Brisbane over 0% of Brisbane any day of the week. Presumably though, if your team DID make the cut, you would support it? or would you pull your sponsorship because of it?

No it’s not Mary. Once again, happy to take your donation to rectify the problem. I’ll let RA know to expect a big cheque from you.

No definitely dont switch allegiances. Support your team, get to their games and in your own small way, financially contribute to their on going success.
This comp wouldnt have your support, but it would have support of the ones who did make it. It didnt have the support of anyone in the previous iterations.
