    @Stargazer Didn’t mean it like that mate. I meant in 2023 Kurtley is still getting paid to play by Rugby Oz. Not in the legal sense, completely aside of that, but in the career sense.

    @KiwiMurph

    He was more than good enough to start NPC matches and be a squad member in a NZ SR side. Bone headed selections at NPC level are having a flow on effect

    Is Australian rugby really as backward looking and thinking as it is coming across as at the moment?

    Every fucking thing i read at the moment is about "returning to the glory years" and harking back to the 90s, or christ now it's "the pride the Ella's had".

    News flash dickheads. Success in modern elite rugby isn't about fucking mindset, or passion, or calling on the spirit of the periods when the Wallabies were good.

    It's about pathways and development and preparation and plans to maximise talent.

    If this isn't just window dressing for the public, and RA really do think the job is done, then this is going to crash and burn just so hard.

    @Stargazer cue the cries from south of the Tweed about young players missing out at the Reds.

    I'm more worried that the Australian Fijian wing pool has dried up so much you have to import ineligible Fijians now.

    @Stargazer so it's RWC or bust. That seems a strange plan, but I'm not a coaching genius or clever advertising exec.

    He's a front rower.

    But yeah, Nadolo's return to the Tahs is plain weird.

    Haha, I saw Fijian and just assumed winger ... 🤦🏽♂

    If Nadolo can replicate the form from when he was a Crusader then he'd be a good buy.
