The first Wallaby squad for the Fiji test.
No real surprises there. Salakia-Loto might be the most notable omission, he was good last year.
Excellent work by the Wallabies here
Have released a cheap range of merchandise through Best & Less
$40 for a long sleeve supporter's jersey. Beanies, scarf, t shirts etc
@antipodean Pasitoa doesn't have a contract - is going to play NPC - I believe for Northland
Tom Donnelly to become the Wallabies' new lineout coach. Heck of a bounce back from big Sas. Unwanted by Otago and the Landers, to having an international gig.
@Duluth said in Aussie Pro Rugby:
Tahs could not get his position right in the image
Keep in mind that a lot of the Tahs operations have been centralised under RA, as a first point.
I'll tell you - for free - that the corporates who run our game nationally have Fuck 
All Idea about rugby

Maybe "amok" ?
QLD lock Angus Blyth signs with the Tahs.
With Matt Philip also coming to Sydney it gives us some decent options

Been thinking about the general positioning and talk of rugby in Australia.
For all the talk of rugby dying, or being 'back', I actually think we've found our level over the last 5-10 years and it's where we will stay.
We're a second tier rugby nation, on and off the field. There's enough support to sustain a viable Super competition, 6-8 Wallabies games a year and the odd Lions tour or World Cup. We will field competitive rugby sides that may have the odd good spell but will never be dominant.
Within the sporting landscape here, our place is to sit below AFL, NRL and cricket but above basketball, soccer and netball.
It's not super interesting to discuss, but I think that's how it is. And I'm largely OK with it, but it does mean accepting that a World Cup win in my lifetime may be a bit of a long shot.
