    Rugby Vic needs to cut its losses, ditch the brand and everything (our age grade are still playing as U16 and U19 Rebels) and just concentrate on the local scene, you never know one day down the track we might ave a chance of a professional team again but the more they taint things the less likely we'll ever be trusted again

      i think this is less Rugby Vic and more a bunch of Directors with skin in the game.

        @mariner4life you might be right, i guess a different way to view it is Rugby Vic should distance itself from the whole Rebels brand so as not to be tainted any further but this drama

                  Sapsford in the Aust XV squad. Edmed is back in the main squad.

                    Notable inclusions in the main squad: Skelton, Kerevi, Potter.

                    A couple of interesting names in the 2nd Squad: De Lutiis (20yo QLD prop) and Horton, who was not wanted at the Tahs but probably shows where the hooking stocks are right now... and / or that the Tahs aren't the best for recruitment or retention.

                    A lot of opportunity for the whole group. First squad has 34, second squad 29. Spending up big to see if we can prove a point before Lions 2025.

                      And apparently Tom Lynagh is in the XV squad but the graphics team stuffed up

                        Corey Toole and Josh Flook will be disappointed to see the names ahead of them. Sualii and Harry Potter will have to show some wizardry to justify their selection.

                          Heremaia Murray has been named in the Queensland squad to tour Japan. I guess he is trialing for a SR contract.

                            I've just realised: no Koroibete 🤔

                              Koroibete was unavailable but to be fair, he was absolutely dire during the TRC.

                                  Loving the collar. Not loving the Qatar Airways logo, but that's life.
