Scrumtime - for Rugby Tragics

• 21/5/2007 - CAN THE REDS SINK MUCH LOWER?

If they couldn't do any good with him, how will they go without him?

The Queensland Reds need to take a good hard look at themselves, and stop blaming the people who are not really responsible for their downfall.

Eddie Jones may not be everybody's cup of tea, but one thing that you can be sure of is that he gives nothing less than 100%

It looks to me like the old cronyism, the private school bully boy mentality, the insular, inward looking thinking has triumphed yet again. ... and it seems that it's all about getting another old boy into the fold.

Connolly wanted Foley and destabilised Eddie to the point where Eddie said 'enough' - and who could blame him?

If the Queenslanders think that it all turns around in one season they really are living in Fantasyland.

You just lost Mitchell Chapman to the Brumbies, because he is a winner who is not happy playing with losers. Eddie could probably  say the same, and probably is.

Face, it Queensland, the power base has shifted. You and NSW are no longer holding all the cards. Other people are now running the game. The ARC could have happened five or ten years ago, if you hadn't had your heads stuck firmly in the sand (or was it snouts in the trough??)

You get what you deserve

About Me

My name is John Gates ("Gatesy"), from Australia. I am a Rugby "Tragic". This is a site for posting Rugby items that might be a little unusual, from Rugby sites around the world, in places that may not be traditional Rugby strongholds. I am particularly interested in the development of the game in all Rugby countries,not just the traditional ones. There are some "sleeping giants" out there and when they are stronger it will be a greater game for all. PLEASE POST YOUR COMMENTS AND MAKE THIS AN INTERESTING FORUM.
