[QUOTE="Mr. Laxative, post: 95263"] The Reds: Well, it really does seem that these guys are in trouble. over the past two or three seasons they have lost most of their top players to the Force, the Waratahs and the Brumbies. the list is seemingly endless: Nathan Sharpe, Tai McIsaac, Drew Mitchell, Julian Huxley, Josh Valentine.... and it goes on. But, fear not, with a new coach in Eddie Jones who led them to the recent APC final and some good talent emerging and in some cases staying the 2007 looks a promising one from the northern boys. Really, the fans shouldn't be too concerned after the mass exodus - there is still Chris Latham, Greg Holmes, "Rodzilla", Lloyd Johansson and a new face in league convert in Clinton Schifcofske to lead an otherwise inexperienced, but capable team. expect some surprising performances as the look to regain the great play of years past. I'm thinking a top half finish here. The Waratahs: At first glance the Waratahs may struggle this coming season and there is that ****ling feeling that they will. They have lost an awesome talent (albeit a wasted one) in Rogers, but have gained some in Josh Valentine. Also, there are the regular faces: Lote Tuqiri, Adam Freier, Dan Vickerman (who will be missing for most of the season), who are sure to help.

Guys, I've decided that I'm going to make an Australian Rugby Wrap podcast and will be releasing the first episode in the new year.
