    Good player. Only 25. More of a mobile blindside than a big bopper, tho at 193cm and 110kg no midget.

    It's a shame. Even if there is a Rebels next year, not sure what they'll have left in terms of players.

    Maybe the Force can stop being a retirement gig for foreign players and pick a few up.

    An 11-team comp will be a bit shit tho.

    Why?

    It's much better to have 4 stronger Aussie side than 5 sides who have zero show of winning it all

      Maybe we should split this thread? An Aus community rugby thread and a pro rugby one? What do you think?

      im not sure there is the demand, there is only a couple of us that post the occasional thing about club rugby and often in relation to things like how strong the game is in general

          @Duluth yeah but i think the vast majority is about the pro level so we might have a thread about community rugby with less than 100 and a pro one with over 4K

          and thats 4k since 2016 which is quite a long time

            Nah, it's a separate topic, and allows people to find stuff they are interested in more easily. Should be split.

                                Freedom within a framework. It works, provided the players have the intelligence and physical prep to implement it.
