@Kiwiwomble you sound like a Warriors fan.

Rugby News | Latest Rugby News & Articles | RugbyPass

Global rugby news and analysis from the world of rugby including the Rugby World Cup, Six Nations, The Rugby Championship, Premiership Rugby, United Rugby Championship, Heineken Cup, Super Rugby Pacific and much more!

That is definitely written by someone from the North who barely takes any interest in Super but was forced to write about the upcoming season.

Isn't there a rumour that Ben Smith isn't actually a real person but rather a pseudonym for Jamie Wall?

I think less a rumour and more one conspiracy nut.

Proof that NZRU is trying to fuck with the fern.

There has been nearly 300 applicants for the new CEO position. The new person will need to be Sydney-based, but I'm not sure why.

300 applicants. Probably about 2-3 serious ones

SANZAAR is based in Sydney, that's where the office is

[Kiwiwomble]

@Machpants possibly because it provides the best/easiest connections to all parties?

[Tim]

With the Rebels probably gone, are there any players you would want your squad to pick up? Proctor might be handy and experienced in the midfield. Ekuasi is pretty solid too.

@Tim wouldn't mind if the Canes picked up Wellington born Jordan Uelese as a back up to Aumua. Would obviously welcome back Matt Proctor aswell. Carter Gordon and Andrew Kellaway are class players aswell, would suit the Canes attacking style.
