    @Machpants lol how do you drop Ikitau, he’s arguably their best back. Eddie really has lost his marbles. His whole persona is kind of wearing thin now, I personally think he’s just not upto it. Neither are Australia tbh.

    @taniwharugby said in RWC squads 2023:

    Neither ideal, but they maybe need to tie the ban to a minimum of the same level they got banned from?

    Problem then being, does that mean they can't play levels below that? That then means if you've retired from international rugby or the coach doesn't like you, you're fucked!

    @Bones dont be a gobby shite then 😉

    Am sure no way is ideal, but they probably need to put a marker down as to what level of match constitutes being a match counting toward your ban, I mean in this and SBW example, they will only 'miss' a certain game as it counts toward thier ban, but wer enever going to play it.

    @taniwharugby In Super Rugby they did exactly that: preseason games, for example, don't count towards a suspension.

    I think it's a smart move by Eddie if true. Way too much baggage in the old guard as you build for 2025/2027.

    This is the smash and grab RWC squad.

    Plays for Randwick. So did his old man. So did Eddie.

    Anyway fuck it - expectations were set to zero already, and after the last 24 hours in club land, I'm ready to just laugh the whole thing off and chuck the code in the bin.
