Ponga bombshell: Wallabies plan to poach NRL star
A heavyweight battle has erupted for Kalyn Ponga’s prized signature, with Wallabies coach Michael Cheika confirming he has spoken to the NRL superstar about a defection to rugby union.
More on this, apparently the response was if he was going to go back to rugby union, he'd want to be an All Black.

@antipodean Not surprised NRL will shut this down quick don't you think ?

random Brad Weber update and his chances of making the RWC..
Fozzie was asked last night if Weber was going to the world cup.. obvious answer was no way could he respond..
but said that there was nothing more that he could have done this year to put his case forward to go to the world cup. Impressed with his attitude. said one thing holding him back previously was that he got 'a cloud over his head and focused too much on why he wasn't making the team', when he needed to just play his game. Had impressed with his fitness and his pass accuracy is much better (insinuation being that they had an issue with his pass...).
-
@WillieTheWaiter I hate to think what his pass accuracy was previously...
-
Some announcements at the Cake Tin tonight.
Finlay Christie to the Blues.
Judd is leaving Canes for Japan. -
@Canes4life So the Canes will lose both reserve halfbacks. Can't wait hearing who they'll sign to replace them.
-
@Canes4life ohhh wow thought you were kidding Christie is shit you would be glad to rid of him Judds a loss
-
Judd’s a loss. But Beauden wasn’t on the leavers board so that’s a good sign.
-
I'd be SHOCKED if he didn't take a sabbatical in 2020 or cash in & play mickey mouse rugby in Japan
-
@Canes4life this article hints at no Beauden Barrett in SR until 2022
Then he would be back at 31 in SR

@Canes4life Christie is shit, so lucky for the canes that he's off. Was glad to be rid of him at the Chiefs. Good trade for TTT in the long run. Isn't Booth coming back? Maybe they'll pick him up again.

Look I know you're a Chiefs fan but it's a bit mean to wish Booth on the Canes.
@Chris I think I've written this in another thread once or twice but I don't think that BB is as far out in front of his competitors to risk a break from the ABs.

@Higgins said in Super Rugby News:
Is Booth really the answer? He has been around a number of Super Teams without actually making a mark yet.
If the question is: once put in a performance to rival Chris Eaton on McLean Park then yes Booth is the answer.

Yeah Would have to agree maybe age is catching up or burnt out a bit.
