Rugby Australia to target top NRL talent

[Jim Swift]

Yeh but NSW Cup players don’t get to tour Argentina!

Mmmmm. There’s plenty of shit aspects to Rugby, but that ain’t one.

Realistically 18 or younger if they don’t have a very strong rugby league junior background

He’s going to be a liability in defence and the speed of the game he will struggle hugely with

he will be lucky to play more than 15 mins in a spell if he’s not hiding on the wing in defence

Pretty much every league player that goes to rugby ends up playing for the Wallabies inside 12-18 months lol even players they wouldn't play rep in league... says alot about there code.

Fear of Music is my favourite Talking Heads album. Eno produced masterpiece.

Cities and Mind are my favourite songs on the album.

Rugby Yawnion sux.

I agree with all of that

Is Carter Gordon a genuine chance of being a star in League? and what position? Halfback?

Probably not, I think he just wants a stable job.

See the world and all that Argentina has to offer!

It'll be interesting because quite a few League players have gone over and took a spot away from a actual union player in the international side pretty much straight away.

Interested to see if he can make it at 5 8th

good luck to him he’s coming for the right reasons

And that`s why I wouldn`t let Michael Cheika anywhere near our game.

 

[Vee]

No offence to To'o, who is a great player, but Ken Irvine says "hi".

And before him, Harold Horder.

TBF, he did say, "best I've ever seen"

 

[Diesel]

And that`s why I wouldn`t let Michael Cheika anywhere near our game.

Cheika’s a fan of RL, Ryles isn’t a fan of RU

Still don`t trust him. If he got a job to coach an Australian super side or even the national team would you trust him not to attempt to take someone with him. He`s union, don`t trust him as far as you could throw him.

 

[Brutus]

I hear rugby union star Seb Alloy-Barnes is close to signing with an NRL club.

Apparently he's a quality goalkicker.

Article in today's tele the Tigers have signed junior Wallabies captian Onitoni Large.

Lol the Wallabies can't even keep thier junior captions, this is where the battle of the codes is being won by League.

Says something doesn`t it, our two last placed teams in our compo signing 1) a 23 year old Wallaby just scratching the surface of his potential and, 2) a kid many say is the best 16 year of either rugby code in the country.
These blokes aren`t coming over to play in glamour clubs, they`re coming over to try their luck at a couple of regular cellar-dwellers. That says a lot.

I'm sure he was already at the club. Played matts last year?

Yeh let's not yet the Union guys spin that we are signing there juniors, who have never played RL before.

There are people who insist that Hamiso is a Union junior, for example.

Our game, won the battle to sign the best kids about 20 years ago.
