    Tipped by his team mate..

    Rennie worked with him before so that should help. I think Aussie has better options though

    @duluth and he's 31. Does he even qualify? Maybe under the 3 year rule, but would he be in that category?

    Haha I didn't even need to read the article, it was in the blurb 😁

    The highly rated Brumbies mentor will join Dave Rennie’s coaching staff at the end of the Super Rugby season before returning to Canberra in 2022.

    @kiwimurph Pretty good for the Wallabies IMO, and he can get the handover for the next Brumbies coach rolling afterwards.

    It is mind-boggling - yet completely predictable - that this Premier Rugby situation is playing out in the media.

    Throw in the state and local government investment in facilities for rugby out here and you've got a potential conflict coming up between the Sydney Rugby Union (an entirely separate entity from NSWRU, who run Premier Rugby) and actual politicians. This includes the new stadium for the Two Blues at Granville Park, which looks very nice indeed.

    Sponsors who would gladly support rugby in the west are asking why the fuck they'd sign a cheque for an entity that might not exist a year from now.

    At the same time, some of these clubs have an operations spine that is about as amateur as my park footy club.

    No Trevor Hosea, no Uelese, no Fainga, no Simone, no Rodda are the big omissions.

    Naisarani played himself back in. Kellaway is a journeyman. The Force have some players in the squad too.

    @bovidae I had to laugh seeing Kellaway named. He's so average.
