@machpants without reading the entire (paywalled) article, but I'm happy to support an incentive-based top-up system.
Not that I think they're going there out to lose, but some days you have to fucking question it, based on their decision making.

Weird not paywalled for me, or maybe there's a few free wach time period
The plan was to restore the Test fees to full amounts in 2022 but with RA still impacted heavily by COVID-19, players agreed to continue reduced rates this year but with a difference – Wallabies representatives will earn around $7500 per win and around $5000 per loss.

I think they're still using a system of free articles per month up to a limit.
Still a fair bit of cheddar for a loss.

@kiwimurph will be a good fullback option , after watching the first round ,none of the fullbacks really threw their hands up with the exception of the Reds fullback ,name escapes me.

Jock Campbell. Looks promising - right height and build. Decent boot and counterattack as well as defence. He's 26 now and probably hitting his straps.

Looks like he might have bulked up this offseason. He looked a bit frail in previous seasons.

just kind of noticed, looks like the Red, Tahs and Rebels are all missing jersey sponsors, cant be a good sign for rugby in aus that two of their bigger team cant get a sponsor

Reds have Westpac on the front of their jersey - was announced late last week and they definitely had them on the front on Saturday.
Rebels had someone called Ebury on theirs.
The Tahs are still looking - maybe nobody wants to pay the price HSBC or Volvo did previously?

@nta ok, when i googled reds and rebels jerseys didnt have a major one of the front but if they came in only last week then the might not have made it to promotional pics etc
-
@kiwiwomble they're not doing much on those "Team" pages - no player stats or anything...
@nta and sponsors have obviously come in after the supporters jerseys were produced, not quite as bad but still not a good sign

@kiwiwomble You'd think an entire fucking off-season lasting 6 months would allow them the time to sort their shit out.

Time for tahs supporters to buy a replica, less adverts the better! That's why I'm a fan of RWC shirts

@machpants as a fan agreed, last jersey i bought was 2016 before the highlanders sign pulse energy
Queensland welcomed big five bank Westpac to the Reds family on the eve of their opening match against the Rebels, while the Western Force secured the coup of the pre-season signing French industrial company Altrad. -
Bye bye Giteau’s Law, hello to (I think the same as) Wales law
https://www.rugbypass.com/news/rugby-australia-end-giteau-law-reveal-new-overseas-player-policy/
@machpants so it was you must be playing in Australia, then you could be overseas but played for the Wallabies 60 times, now it's half that. Entirely predictable slide down the slope to "are you eligible and willing to play for Australia?"
