Four years after getting a taste of international coaching, Geoff Parling will return as the Wallabies’ new lineout coach.

The Roar can reveal the Rebels assistant, who coached alongside Dave Rennie in six Tests during the 2020 campaign, is set to be unveiled as Joe Schmidt’s latest recruit to his coaching team in the coming days.

Portugal appoint ex-All Black Simon Mannix as new coach Portugal appoint ex-All Black Simon Mannix as new coach

Former All Black and current Biarritz director of rugby Simon Mannix will take the reins of the Portugal men’s team for the next four years...

George had his best result in quite a while in the Giro d'Abruzzo - coming in 3rd in the GC, 2nd in the KotM, and 2nd in the final stage.

Solid throughout.

Behind Lutsenko and Sivakov, but ahead of Adam Yates, Ulissi, Pozzivivo and a few other decent names...and everyone else.

Warriors played like trash today. Was pretty lack lustre. Gave up too many offensive rebounds and gave away too many turnovers.

Klay was brick city. Kerr was messing with the lineups. Not enough out of Kaminga, Wiggins, CP3.

It’s a tough old road in the West and this version of the Dubs got found out.

Predictions:
Tomorrow - Heat and Bulls win
Saturday - Pelicans and Bulls win

i really regret going on the weekend

Seems a bit harsh. Sucks to see your team lose but a good stadium to watch rugby and Rebels played some great footy

im sure it would have been different if id gone with other highlanders fans, shared misery and all

maybe i need to go back and watch the highlights

@Donsteppa Slater is a serial offender in this regard.

I read his biography (or autobiography) years ago. He's got some mental health issues that partially derailed his playing career.

@Tim A Crusaders player landed on his ankle. I don't know if it was the same ankle that he twisted in pre-season but I don't think it is too serious.

Pereira telling Herb that he'll deal with the low blow

@antipodean Utah has recently approved a sales tax increase to contribute up to $900 million for a new arena or a remodeled arena for the NHL team/Utah Jazz. The Owner of the NHL team is the same guy who owns the Utah Jazz.

@Winger Was listening to him doing the comments during the radio commentary of one of the Hurricanes games earlier this year. Very insightful and astute in both his description and reasoning behind what had just happened and why along with predicting, accurately in a lot of cases, what was going to happen from a restart in play. Gave reasons why as well and was well worth listening too. Hopefully he will be in the chair tonight.

@KiwiMurph financial advisors and banks will be sweating

really feel like NZR are on a different planet, all the fluffy content "work" in other sports on the back of competitive and popular sports with engaged fan bases.... not independent of those things

@Winger and im sure they'll find dunedin or invercargill a bit chilly...home advantage

@NTA side note, a set of jerseys from S-Trend was less than $1200 ($47.50 each) and apparently we got our 1's kit (25 jerseys) for free because we ordered all the other kit through them

i'm quite impressed, grip pattern on the chest, rubber around the hem and they set up an on line store for people to buy supports gear

I could understand an annual playoff between the Super and European Champions. I think they'd be interest in that but not really for this longer World Club tournament.

Yeah, you can certainly game the system.

The marquee rule allows NBL teams to give non-restricted players - Australian and Kiwi athletes - large deals but put them on those fixed cap hits, increasing the chance of staying below the salary cap.

I would think Gibbes will select a squad for the RC and then another for the WC. I'll be interested to see if the three NZ sevens players (Vai, Spencer, Tito-Harris) are involved in the latter.
