How time flies when you are having fun: this week, seemingly as soon as it started, the Rugby Championship comes to an end which fixtures in Argentina and South Africa to round out the competition. We already have a winner of the competition with the dominant All Blacks wrapping up the title last week against [...]
Samsung Electronics Australia launched its first major campaign as the Official Partner of the QANTAS Wallabies and Test Rugby a few weeks ago with an initiative that aims to unite rugby fans across the country. The campaign encourages all fans to ‘UNITE’ behind the team and show support for our fabulous team by signing up [...]
Quade Cooper elaborated on his earlier tweet about the ‘toxic’ environment at the Wallabies in an interview on The Rugby Club on Thursday night. Whether you love or hate him, Cooper has certainly stirred the Australian rugby community into a frenzy and finally confirmed the rumours and speculation by many pundits that something is up [...]
After a short break, the Rugby Championship returns to action this week with the Wallabies travelling to Loftus Versfeld to take on the Springboks and the Pumas hosting the All Blacks at La Plata.

The Springboks have also failed to heed the lessons of the Stormers flawed campaigns in 2011 and 2012. After a schoolboy error riddled performance in Auckland, the Wallabies picked [...]
So I am angry again. Why the hell aren’t we seeing the Wallabies vs Springbok game live on free to air tv (FTA) on Saturday night? Could it be because the rights were bought by Channel 9? An organisation that have just paid a record sum for the NRL rights and have more vested interests [...]
After a fortnight’s break, the Rugby Championship returns to our screens this week with matches from Perth between Australia and South Africa and the New Zealand All Blacks hosting the Pumas from Argentina in windy Wellington. Round 3 kicks off with the All Blacks v Pumas fixture from Wellington on Saturday afternoon. The All Blacks [...]
