It was difficult to predict where the new kids on the block, the Melbourne Rebels, would finish in their debut year of Super Rugby. Well, difficult for Rugby Reg who tipped them to finish 10th in his season preview back in January. “With better depth, I reckon they’ll sneak […]

So sang Billy Idol (well…kinda) and so sang the ARU as they announced that the Melbourne Rebels would be the newest addition to the Australian Rugby professional landscape. MORE teams means MORE games and MORE money. More, more, more indeed.
Stirlo - the team's behind him!

A shadow of his former self
You don’t like saying it of a champion but Father Time has finally caught up with Stirling Mortlock.
