@NTA yeah regardless of colour the condom shaped collar is tough to miss.

Hopefully the "supporter" version does away with it. I hate tight collars.

Nope

It's a bit like Commonsense Cookery Book around these parts at times - neighbourly people offering practical advice and simple solutions to the challenges others - complete strangers - encounter in daily life around the house. They could be serial killers, contrail conspiracy theory tragics or wingers but they are all treated the same.

The loveliness is just lovely.

I could learn to like this jersey, TBH. It is growing on me even if its got the same shitty collar in reverse.

Another great upstanding Wallaby as the face of Australian rugby.....

@NTA what's going on with the Rebels? Sounds like they are almost insolvent? I've missed this if so - and it's a real concern if that's the case.

@nzzp all of Australian Rugby, pretty much.

Generally speaking, you'd like to think that the private school system that puts out a lot of our players and administrators, would also have a few who knew how to balance a budget.

Clearly fucking not

bummer. I knew about ARU's woes, but having a franchise (who should have a clearly defined scope and limited costs) is a real concern.

@NTA I really like that jersey, prefer it over the home jersey.

And its funny because years ago, green with gold trim was actually our national rugby team's colour.

Australia announce their new attack coach

The Wallabies have finally announced who will replace Stephen Larkham as attack coach.

@NTA said in Aussie Rugby in general:

What an awful kit. What little of it you can see.

Actually, a great kit ruined.

12 logos or sponsors, imagine some more on the back as well.

[NTA]

@Rapido huh? The quoted tweet had NRL kit.

I know.
The reason I have an inkling for NSW over Qld in origin is because of that (formerly) beautiful 2 blues kit if 1989 ( shared by the tahs)

[NTA]

@Rapido rightoh.

For reference: I'm not really into league. But agree that the once-simple blue kit is getting ridiculous with "away" versions

[jegga]

Gibsons just quit as Tahds coach. I look forward to Mark Hammett taking up the reins next season .
