Won't be the last Bronco to get done either if they get everyone. Let's just say Queenslanders comments about Joey Johns will be pretty hilarious if they find out about a certain former Brisbane 5/8

It is who you think I'm talking about, but I have no reason to think he'll be involved in these investigations or was dealing. Just personally know as a fact that he enjoyed the substance on nights out with his good friends Wendell and Joey. Could all fall like dominoes once they got Smith to be honest, and plenty of NSW players could be exposed as regular users as well

Graham has to be gone soon.

Was good to see Turner walking around in the sheds after the game though.

Just watching Highlanders vs Stormers. Was a leg clash. Commentator said, verbatim, " In football that'd be a red card, wouldn't it?" when discussing how heavily it should be punished. Nice to see Kiwi commentators dont call our sport soccer.

Trying to sell the game to Americans and they seem bemused 'why they dont play with pads?'

Americans need to see footballers playing with pads

Reds are a joke already this season.

I see the crowd is dropping off already which is bad news.

Not sure what you mean by already they've been a joke under Graham's whole tenure as head coach of the club.

He inherited a championship winning team filled with Wallabies and up and coming players in which he turned them into a bottom 3 team for successive seasons.

He should've been sacked after his first season in charge (given his woeful record at the Force).
He should've been sacked midway through last season.
He should've been sacked when Knuckles came to the club at the back-end of last season.
He should've been sacked after they conducted an off-season review in his performance/worldwide search for a new coach.
But instead they wasted another pre-season with this clown and sacked him after two games into the season.

We went from playing some of the best rugby in the world to the worst under Graham. Fans aren't fools and we're sick of being treated like shit so it's not surprising crowds have halved since 2012.

Im a regular punter at the shute shield for sydney university's games

The shute shield is played in some stunning scenery

This is Randwick's home ground at Coogee



Sydney University changing football fields now has the Old Teachers College in the background.
With the autumnal setting, it is "the game they play in heaven" :-k

Not so much the sydney uni turf though

They were overbudget for the construction of their new grandstand that they couldnt afford good drainage for their new patch of turf

This has happened before to the sydney university turf

Can somebody explain to me how it is England got the the decision from that scuffle (from a ruck?) early in the first half when two penalties were awarded against them and one against Australia?

Also thought they were lucky not to have players yellow-carded for tackling around the neck.
