really hope this leads to more grants etc for club rugby, we've been trying to build a clubhouse/pavilion for years, currently use the pit lane at albert park for changing sheds but have to vacate whilst the F1 is on....even have the land!

@tim probably as Paisami, Perese, Foketi, Ikitau are in the Wallaby training squad and he isn't. That's the way the wind is blowing.

Throw in Kerevi to parachute in and, well...

Simone is a loss for the Brumbies but not so much the Wallabies - as NTA points out there a number ahead of him in the queue. I'd pick Hamish Stewart before him too.

This is pretty cool.

The Super W final will be played at Aami Park in Melbourne during the Super Round in 2 weeks.

Looks like it will be before the Saturday double header of Blues-Drua and Canes-Reds

@kiwimurph How would the best Aussie team compare to the Chiefs Manawa?

Fijiana Drua are undefeated in Super W so far and seem a class above. Would like to see them play Chiefs Manawa.

[Bovidae]

@kiwimurph OK. A Waikato FPC player, Jade Coates, is part of the Drua.

That would beat cool double header for SR final

So the players that were drafted into Matatu didn't make the squad. Perhaps telling, perhaps payback?

[Stargazer]

@Crucial I think you have to read that list again! Michaela Leonard and Arabella McKenzie are in the squad!

Larkham will be head coach of the Brumbies next year. Is this a major step backwards, or has he improved a lot at Munster? Brumbies played extremely negative rugby under him.

@Tim where is kellar off to?
