Really?

'He's ready': Campbell backs teammate for gold as fullback mounts own selection and contract extension case

And he’s only 22. Still very young. Lots of potential. He needs to look after his body though.

'Perhaps it's surgery': Reds win ugly over Rebels to keep top four hopes alive as big-name Wallabies forced off

It seems most players want to stay at the Reds. They clearly love the lifestyle and the team they play for.

Exclusive: Wallabies star turns down mega deal overseas to re-sign with Queensland Reds

I think their net points being so in the positive is a very positive sign. Their losses have not been huge.

'The real deal': Love 'em or hate 'em, the Reds are exactly what Australian rugby needs

It looked like Les K was so nervous during that game last night that he had to run out the door when the Reds were in the opposition 22 for fear of jinxing them!

Reds snap 25-year drought in Christchurch to beat Crusaders as Wilson, Ryan star

It’s a shame the commentator couldn’t call Zane by his name. I hope Flook is ok.

Reds snap 25-year drought in Christchurch to beat Crusaders as Wilson, Ryan star

I don’t think I’ve seen anything flashy like this Tim since the emergence of Horan!

'Run-on debut like no other': Junior Wallabies flyer announces himself to the world after stunning hat-trick

It’s the force on the body that worries me, and particularly the movement of the head. The force on the body in a car accident (even with the body protected inside the car) can be enough to kill someone. Imagine the impact on the brain as his head is flung back like that.

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

Good luck, Teddy!!

Olympics calling? Son of a gun called up for Singapore Sevens, Walsh loses gun experienced duo in test of depth

Good question.

Brumbies to welcome back Wallabies duo for 'Canes clash after week of soul-searching, Tahs to tweak side for Chiefs

Really enjoyed your article, Ben!

If Australia is looking for big men, let's not neglect the old and the fat

We were lucky to have him in our lives!

RIP, David Lord: Australian sports journalism icon was 'always thoughtful and thought-provoking'

I’m disappointed for Fraser, because I feel the tackle and steel of the ball would arguably be a function of the coaching at the Reds.
On the other hand, Tate’s swinging arm was all down to him.

'Not ideal': Reds star duo cop Super Rugby bans after red cards - but where's the consistency?

Why should it make any difference to the number of weeks just because you plead guilty when it comes to this sort of thing. How could you plead ‘not guilty’ to thumping someone in the head with your elbow? Ridiculous.

Lomani gets huge discount on ban for shocking elbow after guilty plea, teammate has penalty halved

What’s happening there? I don’t get it.

Beale's back! Wallabies star joins Western Force after injury opens the door for veteran's return

Some context would help. Is this the number of minutes he’s active, actually tackling, carrying or running, or does it include all minutes on the field? How does it compare on the world stage?
I’m not sure how this translates to being flogged. It’s a job isn’t it? What was in his contract?

'He'd been flogged to death': Rebels GM's scathing Tupou claim as Wallaby battles to reignite his fire

Any ideas as to why Matt F was replaced by Josh N so early?
Maybe to give Josh more minutes?

'It was brutal': Clutch Lolesio kicks Brumbies to 'Test match intensity' win over Reds as Wright shines again

How did coaches coach a hundred years ago? How much more is it about being physical these days. Most interviewees of losing teams say things like ‘we weren’t physical enough’. Maybe there needs to be other ways to win a match.

There are only two ways rugby can go from here - and there's no middle ground between physicality and safety

NZ Rugby should benefit from the Wallabies being a stronger opponent. It’s good for both teams.

'It can be something great': Schmidt turns to 'scrum doctor' as next step in Wallabies rebuild

Hahaha

EXCLUSIVE: Schmidt to appoint David Warner as Wallabies leadership consultant

With only 1 point in it, it’s hard to praise the Brums so highly. A win is a win though.

'It was brutal': Clutch Lolesio kicks Brumbies to 'Test match intensity' win over Reds as Wright shines again

Good luck to him!

Inspirational Harrison set for first Super Rugby match in 707 days as Tahs out to snap 'frustrating' run

With Schmidt looking for consistency from players, he must be feeling frustrated.

Five things we learned: Schmidt's selection headache, Carter's a No.12 wildcard, and $1m Thor must step up

Flavour of the week?

Jed, Ned and Tane Edmed: The direction Joe Schmidt should head to put Eddie era to bed

Hopefully the Reds can do better with securing their ball. Too many turnovers against the Tahs.

ANALYSIS: How the Reds’ ruck system outshone their razzle dazzle - and why they must nail it against Canes
