    He starts a sentence with "And".......which is an error a five year old wouldn't make.

    That's the same sort of error people say about split infinitives, ending sentences with a proposition, etc.

    And educated people know that.

    I re edited my post....not quickly enough to hide it from you.

    My Grandparents ( schoolteachers ) are looking down on me in shame.

            Has the media reported what Hockings and Lucas are earning? Rodda is thought to be on $650K a year which is a nice earner, even with a 60% salary hit.

            It sounds like Rodda is pissed off Thorn overlooked him for the Qld captain.

              It also sounds like Thorn was right.

              TBH these guys are getting some bad advice from their management and should be thinking longer term. So fuck 'em.

                  Izack Rodda, Harry Hockings and Isaac Lucas have officially parted ways with the Queensland Reds and the group is adamant the Super Rugby franchise had no legal grounds to stand them down after they refused a short-term pay cut.

                      Aust haven't got the depth to lose someone like him after Coleman and Arnold already leaving. Simmons as your no.1 lock. :astonished_face:

                        Did ya see this quote?
                        “It would be wise for the Reds and RA to maintain amicable relationships with these players. The future is uncertain, but we should always have as many players in the tent as possible."

                        Anyone telling another organisation 'it woudl be wise' can take a flying leap as far as I'm concerned. Muppet. From what others posted above, it was a collective contract change ... suck it up lads, or FRO. THere is no negotiation.

                              FFS WHY? That Reds team had potential to build a dynasty given the average age and talent levels of the squad.

                              Awww... didn't get the captaincy? Well maybe you just didn't deserve it.
