@TalksRugby Aus Govt likely to fund Tonga and Samoan teams to play in Super Rugby Au. This could become a platform for professionals franchies down the line, just as Drua started in NRC.
@BMcSport@WillelmusDux As someone who grew up southside I would prefer a Manuka precinct redevelopment with the Oval, a stadium and the pool all integrated... but lets not put that in Barr's mind because itll delay things another ten years.
@CamDonDuncan@AlfredBuxx Have you ever watched Dupont play? He has to be at every ruck, is the best playmaker in the world, and is an excellent defender.
@RazorRam0n@JohnDean_ Top ups are separate to match payments. If he played ten matches that year that would take him to $450k. It also doesnt include funding he might receive from the Australian Rugby Foundation.
