            i expect the best pros will be trying to get gigs elsewhere, not knocking around a new short domestic comp, mostly i would guess it will be development and squad players

            and we need to give players in these other states some sort of pathway

                Sydney clubs scuttled every other attempt at a competition without their specific representation.

                This is what we have left...

                      No real surprises there. Salakia-Loto might be the most notable omission, he was good last year.

                          Harry Potter heading to the Tahs.

                          A luxury signing considering their big needs in the tight 5 and at 10.

                                      Tom Donnelly to become the Wallabies' new lineout coach. Heck of a bounce back from big Sas. Unwanted by Otago and the Landers, to having an international gig.
