There is zero reason we'd want this under normal circumstances if it wasn't for the justification of rewatching it and listening to people on comms get more and more upset as their team starts losing to our team in wonderful fashion. I think STAN also did it when we won at Twickenham in 2024, may be wrong on that tho.

It's actually so fucked up lol, cause who's gonna be the people rewatching this game with the RSA coverage? It ain't gonna be the average supporter - once is enough for them. No, this is literally just for the purists here who wanted to bask in the feeling a bit longer.

I liked the song better before when they used the bin and slapped the shit out of it instead of getting drumsticks and tapping it instead

Probs next week or in two weeks time and he'll be back at the Reds for the end of Super I reckon

If Jake Gordon isn't too old to play for us, then neither is JOC. The only times we looked like we were a good team last year were before Turbo got sidelined for the entire year, due to an Irish dogshot at a ruck during the Lions Tour with an Asterisks to it, and when we had JOC at the reins of the team.

The true blows to our end-of-year campaign were the triple shots of 1) Tate being injured (JOC's fault), 2) Wright being injured, and 3) JOC not being selected, and 3.5) the Skelton selection and injury situations. I think if any of those three hadn't happened, we could've managed with 2, but all three at once were just too much for us to handle as a squad.

The thing to do now, with JOC and Foley off contract, looking for a home-coming return would be getting the Tahs to hire one of them (JOC preferably), as a game finisher and the overall mentor to any young ten in the Tahs system with even a single modicum of talent.
Like go to Bowen, tell him "sorry lad, I know McKellar did you dirty this year, just like last year, by only letting you play when the season was already over for the Tahs but next year we'll be getting in JOC or Foley and theyll be mentoring you whilst you play 60 mins weekly" but it being the Tahs they would never do something smart like that.

Even if JOC ends up going to the Sharks to play for the Durbanites and he ends up killing it, he should be within consideration people! We more than ever need something to spark us forward, and whilst I love Carter Gordon, his body (similar issue that Turbo's got) does not fill me with confidence that it can stand up to the rigours of test rugby. The old dawg has so many tricks, and Joburg's miracle last year was proof of that truth!

I think that taking him out of the 13 channel and allowing him the freedom of involvement that a winger has is probably the best place for him. I keep hearing about all his strengths, like a great kicking game and vertical ability, but we didn't see it at all last year in the Wallabies, and we almost never see them from him. What's to do? How can all the teams he's involved with bring him more into the game if he truly has the talent we were all led to believe?

atleast we do have goodish nine depth in this country

I think history will vindicate Eddie in his preference of Carter Gordon over Noah in terms of player ability in general. Whether or not it was the move at the time is a different question.

mandatory miss the rebels but not their union management 💔
