    Dempsey dropped for 20-year-old Waratahs young gun

    Dempsey dropped for 20-year-old Waratahs young gun

    Jack Dempsey played at last year's World Cup but has been replaced in the Waratahs back row by rising star Will Harris for Friday's outing against Queensland.

    Wallabies World Cup squad member Jack Dempsey has been dropped to the Waratahs bench for Friday’s clash with the Queensland Reds and will be replaced at No.8 by rising star Will Harris in an extremely youthful side.
    
    NSW could field five debutants in the opening round of Super Rugby AU, with Harris and centre Joey Walton given the nod in the starting XV
    

    Anyone know much about the new players?

    @mariner4life from an article last week

    Players had been united behind the idea of boycotting the Super Rugby AU tournament, starting July 3, on Wednesday, however it seems cooler heads have prevailed and they will take the field next weekend. However, the caveat will be that some stars ask RA to release them from their contracts on September 30 so they can take up more lucrative offers overseas.

    Will Harris coming in at 8, he's only 20 and is one to watch. Will Harrison at 10 is still the focal point, very young and is being thrown in the deep end massively without Gordon, Hunt and Beale.

    Reds should win by 15+, but the real winner will be the Australian rugby public who finally have a local fkn GAME to watch.

    On top of those mentioned above - Ben Donaldson is a 10/15 who was in last year's Aus U20s (as was Joey Walton)

    By the way, in case you've missed it, in SR AU they have more law trials than we have in SRA.

    They're in this article:

    Beth Newman  /  Jun 11, 2020

    Super Rugby AU to introduce a host of law trials

    I don't know what the rules are for crowds at games in Australia, but it's good to see real people in the stands instead of cardboard cutouts.

    The game isn't too bad. It's like watching two development teams play with all those young players (and the odd 23+ player).

    I think I've already seen more scrum-resets in this game than in the first three rounds of SRA.

    What the fuck was that by McDermott? He's run straight into the line of a tackler much bigger than him, why not veer away? Weird.

    Reds should be further in front. Tahs need to stop attempting every offload
