    RA seems to be trying to provide more opportunities for players above club level.

          i expect the best pros will be trying to get gigs elsewhere, not knocking around a new short domestic comp, mostly i would guess it will be development and squad players

          and we need to give players in these other states some sort of pathway

              Sydney clubs scuttled every other attempt at a competition without their specific representation.

              This is what we have left...

                    No real surprises there. Salakia-Loto might be the most notable omission, he was good last year.

                        Harry Potter heading to the Tahs.

                        A luxury signing considering their big needs in the tight 5 and at 10.

                                    Tom Donnelly to become the Wallabies' new lineout coach. Heck of a bounce back from big Sas. Unwanted by Otago and the Landers, to having an international gig.

                                          Keep in mind that a lot of the Tahs operations have been centralised under RA, as a first point.
