Anyway I will go for the Crusaders just to p155 on the Reds bonfire and not to outshine the Maroons victory over the Blues.

Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one on here so don't be surprised if I talk to myself
Crusaders will be favourites but I've had a feeling about the Reds all year.

I know this is a union thread but who do you fancy winning SOO 3,going for the Maroons myself with them being on their home patch.

Queensland Reds Super 15 champions. Hope few on here got on them. I did
Good game but Crusaders paid for their over-cautious attitude. On a slightly different note, I really hope Quade Cooper doesn't get an NRL gig. He's an awfully overrated and dare I say it limited player.

Bugger was hoping for the Crusaders to win but regarding Cooper I personally hope he signs for an NRL team after the union WC just to see the ARU's faces so to speak.

The joke would be on the NRL club mate. I used to say his defence was suspect but it's more than that. He seems to actively avoid tackling.

To be honest I haven't seen much of him but if he avoid tackling he would get exposed big time in RL.

Who would you say the NRL could go after from union Catalancs.

Is there anybody decent enough to make the grade and already may have an RL background.

I'm not sure many of the big names would have an impact on the NRL with the exception of Sonny Bill Williams.
They might not be well known but I'd love to see Rene Ranger, Robbie Freuan, Israel Dagg, Telusa Veainu and Julian Savea in rugby league. Julian Savea is the pick of that bunch in my opinion.

No mate never heard of any of them.

As for SBW can't see him ever coming back to RL,too much hate I think.

Report plunges rugby union into fresh civil war as RFU row rages on The sports minister, Hugh Robertson, has also waded into the debate. "I have been clear that I want all sports bodies to have the best possible governance structures," Robertson said on Monday. "Recent events have proved that clearly is not the case with the RFU." Just how rotten is the RFU? Sunday's council meeting was designed to allow the RFU to move on from the Steele affair, but it proved more of a backward step.
