Brisbane Global 10s

[Dice]

I thought we'd have a better team than that for the 10s. Probably can't be helped with pre-season games starting this week. We're going for 2 Pre-season Championship Titles in a row.

No Lowe in the Chiefs squad?

He's not risking his AB chances that so many have been telling us about over the last 2 years....

Guys like NMS, Aso, PUJ, Proctor Will thrive in the extra space

Yup!.

@NTA So the Force couldn't find an ex-player to select? I'm sure Sharpe would like to have a run around.

[mariner4life]

@Bovidae the Force are always left out...

[pukunui]

Surely they could get Cameron Shepherd to squeeze into a force jersey and lace up the boots.

So 35 and 37 forecast for Saturday and Sunday, no storms...whether has been shit (bloody hot with no storms) for weeks. Going to be fairly ordinary playing in that you would imagine...

Couldn't find anything about this being broadcast on Sky. What's the deal?

[Bovidae]

Sky has a pop-up channel for the event.

More info:
LIVE on Sport Pop-Up 57 from 2.30pm this Saturday

[cheetahsBO]

Anyone notice a Brussow/Pocock type ballhawk in any of the NZ sides?

I'd put my dollars on the side with the best fetcher winning the whole thing.

[taniwharugby]

Matt Matich has been called into Blues 10s squad as injury cover, although not sure who for.

Great. So that means my fanpass won't get it. There is bugger all other sport on at the moment so there's no need for this bollocks.

F%$^%ing Sky.

[Bovidae]

SS1 doesn't have any live sport on this afternoon so I'm not sure of the rationale - we obviously don't pay extra for a pop-up channel. Note that live softball is also on a pop-up channel today.

[pukunui]

Ok so does anyone know what the format of this thing will be? Is it lots of short games like 7s or full 80min games and the loser gets knocked out?
