#why does rugby australia name their club not even their super rugby team#all my thoughts are going to be in the tags#every rugby competition has a Harlequins#i've seen Harlequins in the USA and in Australia it is like the default rugby team name (also they are in the English Premiership)#I think Taniela is an interesting choice#he was the highest paid aussie super rugby player last year#but he does tend to get injured and didn't have a lot of game time with the rebels#slips is getting a bit old and I think needs to retire from int rugby#i will call it now something will happen to make me look like an idiot for saying these things#I have no idea who Jeremy Williams is i know he plays for the Tahs#also the Giteau rule is silly#play morika koribete and will skelton#we want players getting experience overseas#Liam Wright *chiefs kiss* and I think he will make a great captain#apparently the 7th we have had in a year#I like Flook and he plays well but brothers as a club can get wrecked#i've only played them in netball but they are so pushy#no massive surprises in the starting 15 but it feels solid but mid#I think bringing Cale and Lynagh in might be a slight mistake#like they play well and should be at camps#but i am worried about young guns being pushed to fast and under too much pressure#like for both it was really their first super rugby season (i know technically lynagh played last year)#also tuggernong vikings can get wrecked#that is a personal vendetta
