    A millimetre in touch IMO

    He’s played well though

    @Bovidae They will lose players regardless - they are all being told to shrink their salary cap by sizeable margins.

    The Force can become competitive pretty easily if Twiggy opens the cheque book. Bring in McMahon, Skelton, the two Arnolds, Latu, Kerevi, any of the 400 professional outside backs in Europe and Japan, etc.

    They could very easily go from the worst team to the best. Don't see it happening though.

    I still don't see the Force being shit as a problem. No comp is without whipping boys. And if they draw crowds and Twiggy investment who gives a fuck if they suck.

    See that's the problem. They're not self sustaining.

    On the positive side you can explain your shit decisions by pointing out you couldn't keep up with play. 😃

    5 games of women's Sevens today, plus half a game when another ref broke down. No way I'm keeping up with those girls... Even the division 2 teams.

    Fullback: Jack Maddocks, Dane Haylett-Petty, Tom Banks.
    Tighthead prop: Allan Alaalatoa, Pone Fa'amausili, Jermaine Ainsley, Taniela Tupou, Harry Johnson-Holmes
    Loosehead prop: Angus Bell, Scott Sio, James Slipper, Harry Johnson-Holmes (both)
    Hooker: Folau Faingaa, Connal McInerney, Jordan Uelese, Tom Horton

    Super Rugby debut is simply another game and another opportunity

    Super Rugby debut is simply another game and another opportunity

    It's been three years since Amy Perrett made Super Rugby History as the first female assistant referee. And Friday night will mark yet another milestone in an accomplished career for one of Australia's top match officials, however for the woman in the middle, it's just another game.

    I watched the first half and Perrett reffed pretty well. Good communicator and let the game flow I thought.

    You really shouldn't be chasing girls at your age anyway, and you're married. Then there is the whole consent thing. Might be best to find some other way to exercise? Just saying.

    Seriously - good on you. Your devotion to the game is admirable.
    If more Aussies were like you, you could probably get a 5th super team.😉

    I keep telling them what we need to do, but they don't listen because I don't have a school tie and boater.
