MPs get stuck into Six Nations over TV rights bidding process

Also great mention of the Penrith Emus. The neglect of rugby in Sydney outside the 'traditional' private school areas has had a lasting effect with many sports fans in Sydney. They wouldn't know or care when the wallabies play.

Except the evidence only exists in your own mind John.

It's true tho. Until we start believing in ourselves and believing in our own rugby knowledge again, instead of being told we must play like 4th ranked kiwis, we are going nowhere.

The next coach must not be from NSW nor a kiwi coach just grubbily creaming off a million dollars a year by appeasing the most powerful union the Tahs.

The evidence is in that all they have done is drag Australia down

Suddenly, in certain positions, teams like the Reds and Tahs have real quality depth. Given RA's inability to effectively match off-shore salaries (I understand they have already told Topou that they can't match his existing contract), we will see a fair few players depart for Japan, France, etc post Lions.

I’m proud to consider him a good friend too. We last had lunch in Paris prior to one of the RWC semifinals. I can strongly support his passion for Aussie rugby.

Why are there so many foreigners writing stuff to keep Australian rugby down ? Are they all so terrified we might succeed if we regain our self confidence and engender some Aussie spirit ?

Who gives away a penalty for not rolling away from a ruck a few minutes in to a must win World Cup game when captain, on the Welsh tryline ? An entitled Tah called Porecki that's who.

Tupou will find karma will be chasing him playing for the Tahs .....
