James Parsons has retired
https://www.superrugby.co.nz/news/james-parsons-announces-his-retirement-from-all-rugby/
Blues and North Harbour centurion James Parsons has today announced that he has decided to retire from all rugby. Parsons, 34, a centurion for the Blues and North Harbour along with two tests for the All Blacks, said that he is retiring on medical advice, after being out of the game for several months from a head injury. -
@KiwiMurph I hope he stays in the game in some capacity. Listening to the podcast he's on, he has a good understanding of the game, just suffered for size as a player.
-
@antipodean completely agree. His podcast work is terrific.
-
shame when any player is forced to retire rather than go out on thier own terms.
Agree with all that has been said about him as a commentator, he had a regular piece with Darcy & Goran and his insight, knowledge and just affable manner made him great to listen to.

Australian Brendan Morris has been named the new CEO of Sanzaar, while Argentina's Marcelo Rodriguez will take the reins as chairman for the next 12 months. Morris, who was previously chief operating officer at the joint venture, steps into the role vacated by Andy Marinos, who is now the CEO of Rugby Australia.Rodriguez's appointment to chairman is a boost for Argentine rugby after a difficult year in 2020. The Pumas performed superbly in the revamped ‘Tri Nations' competition at the end of last year, but their professional game was turned upside down as New Zealand and Australia forged ahead for plans for a trans- Ta$man competition while South Africa revealed its intention to move its franchises into the northern hemisphere. That left the Jaguares without a competition to play in but Rodriguez’s chairmanship is a strong indication that the Pumas very much have a future in The Rugby Championship. -

Don’t really want to go against the Fern James Parsons reach around, but his size is similar to Coles and Taylor. Good honest toiler though just lacked top end talent.

@Tim The Blues must be missing a fair few players for that game given the apparent weakness of the Hurricanes squad coupled with the inevitable selections of Messrs JGB, Princep and Blackwell and the perennial "promising props" that are taking an enternity to match or better that tag.
Looks easy money to be earned here at that price! -
I am completely new to streaming sport. Might be a silly question, but I am a tech retard, are the games going to be available on Stan to watch later? Often I am working during the game and can't watch live. Surely they will be archived?
-
@Crazy-Horse Yes, they can be watched at any time.
-
@Crazy-Horse that's my understanding, some will be live to air and potentially simulcast on 9, others (probably NZ games) will be on demand
-
All Super Rugby AU + Super Rugby Aotearoa games will be live and on demand on Stan Sport.
1 x Super Rugby AU game per week will also be shown live on 9Gem.
