    @Tim If those are accurate quotes, I'm glad he's leaving.

        I can imagine Waratahs fans won't be too unhappy about this move.

          @Stargazer I hope he shifts to fullback, or another position beyond 10.

                I do find it funny they mention his NZ mother player for the Oz women's team - it should be enough that he was born and raised there without the need to add that Oz poached his Mum. 😉

                Also, I'd take TKB in a heartbeat for the ABs, especially over the Ginga.

                  it would be huge for rugby in general but especially in aus if the wallabies could snatch the cup leading into 2027, they need to do EVERYTHING they can to win

                    Given the draw and their capability to put out a dangerous 23, I’d not be surprised to see Oz in the final.

                    They’d likely get a very tired team from the other side.

                    Ideal opportunity for Eddie.

                    Injuries will be crucial for them.

                            @Kiwiwomble Yep, and there's not much variation possible if you want the main colour to stay the same.

                            You'll almost certainly come back to something that's been tried before.

                              @Dan54 dont get me wrong, im not even on the commitee, just manage one of the teams, the actual commitee kill them selves keeping the club alive

                              one of them who is probably a bit like @NTA in that he does loads for the club and then will also play two games if needed, was tell me the other week he needs to step down, said he was lonely and legit cant have a partner and still do everything he does for the club

                              @NTA they were probably saying the same thing about me when i first joined
