@KyleVos3 @TommyTudehope @NotRobSimmons @RugbyReg Yes we do. We have schools Id say are better than nudgee. What is that ranking?

@RugbyBat @TommyTudehope @NotRobSimmons @RugbyReg Australia don't have good rugby schools outside of nudgee

Nudgee College with a last minute drop goal (kicked by the son of former Wallaby Brian Smith) to defeat Grey College in South Africa overnight is actually pretty big news.

@KyleVos3 @TommyTudehope @NotRobSimmons @RugbyReg By whom? They play in different comps.

@RugbyBat @TommyTudehope @NotRobSimmons @RugbyReg Nudgee was ranked as the best rugby school in the year in 2025 tho?

@SunnyDoha @NotRobSimmons @KyleVos3 @TommyTudehope @RugbyReg Chatgpt is wrong, thats probably the best over the past 20 years but it changes year on year. Last year it would have been Riverview.

@NotRobSimmons @RugbyBat @KyleVos3 @TommyTudehope @RugbyReg Chat GPT So who is actually “the best”? •Right now (recent results): Nudgee College 🥇 •All-time elite group: •Nudgee •Churchie •TSS •Joeys (NSW) •King’s (NSW)

@RomellOuterSpac @brumby_fan @ranasaturada Its not a bigger club. Ulster are no bigger than the Reds. Id say they are smaller.

@RugbyBat @brumby_fan @ranasaturada And we couldn't give a fuck about a Rugby player choosing to join a bigger club. Tough shit 👍

On Massimo De Lutiis: 1. Piss off Ireland. All I hear is about how to great your systems are. Prove it & grow your own. 2. WR should introduce forced financial compensation in these cases. 3. Always question the source when it comes to these types of stories.

@KyleVos3 @TommyTudehope @NotRobSimmons @RugbyReg Nudgee isnt even the top Aussie school 🤣

@TommyTudehope @NotRobSimmons @RugbyReg We admit that nudgee is the best rugby school currently but it stops there, the rest of the top 10 in the world from 2-10 is SA schools. Westlake(NZ) got thrashed yesterday by our 10th ranked school

@CapitanTed @HuwTindall @brumby_fan Almost all of those moved as teenagers with their parents. Completely different.

@HuwTindall @brumby_fan 💩 Kuridrani? Koroibete? Taniela Tupou? Henry Speight? Stephen Moore? Pocock? Could list you another dozen, so you're full of shit mate mate

@RomellOuterSpac @brumby_fan @ranasaturada We could not give less of a fuck about GAA and AFL. Have at it. Get the AFL to fund the entire GAA.

@brumby_fan @ranasaturada Yeah sure. Stealing young GAA talent & paying zero compensation. Hopefully this stings when the shoe is on the other foot.

@AlboMP Good start, now ban them.

@2027Rwc13708 1 April is the worst day of the year.

🚨OFFICIAL🚨 Super Rugby returns to 12 teams in 2027, with CEO Melsey stating bye weeks have ‘hurt’ fan interest SRA 2026 winner is the target 12th team, with pro/rel between leagues going forward Move aims to boost regional cooperation. Cross league preseason also in plans 👀

@DjmComments @pTah_XV Perfect. The AFL can send money to the GAA and IRFU send money to RA. Win/win.

@pTah_XV Fair point. The GAA invests money and time into developing these players.

Just read a post that Australian rugby should just suck up Ireland’s poaching of Massimo De Lutiis because the AFL poach players from the amateur GAA

@kinson88 @tmc_carthy @iainpayten Either! I'm sure Tonga or Samoa would be short of a run. Hong Kong also needs actual test matches. Put a B string Wallabies against them. Cap a few up and comers so the thieving Irish and Scots dont get any ideas.

@RugbyBat @tmc_carthy @iainpayten Do you mean Aus A games?

PODCAST DAY… in studio for #InsideLine with @iainpayten today. Swing us your submissions for #Mailbag below 👇

@barrysul @espnscrum @Sambruce86 @ChristypDoran Why should Australia not be compensated for spending time and resources developing him?

@espnscrum @Sambruce86 @ChristypDoran Compensate? Behave lads, he is Irish qualified through direct family.

Ireland have reportedly tabled a big contract for uncapped Aussie prop Massimo de Lutiis. Should RA up its offer or let him walk? Should Ireland have to compensate Australia if he does depart? FULL podcast 🎙️: linktr.ee/ESPNScrumReset @Sambruce86 @ChristypDoran

@tmc_carthy @kinson88 @iainpayten And a follow up, should we schedule extra Tier 2 tests where we can cap more players.

@kinson88 @iainpayten Does the Massimo situation challenge RA’s top up strategy? Should the focus be on keeping uncapped talent and let embedded Wallabies that we aren’t at risk of losing to other countries play overseas

@CrytonFred @IndoSport @dk3lly Although there is bound to be the odd exception, we dont 'poach' PI players. All the PI Wallabies either were born in australia or moved in high school.

@IndoSport @dk3lly As if AUS and NZ are saints in this regard with the amount of Pacific islanders they poach. And can't Australia afford to make a counter offer or is the IRFU that rich?

David Kelly: IRFU will persevere with the chequebook recruitment strategy for the Ireland team. Why? Because it works @dk3lly ✍️ buff.ly/YSpgOAT

@IndoSport @dk3lly Scumbags

@Splitown @venikunche No kids should know any of that. Thats retarded.

@venikunche All kids should know cutting edge tech, ai, robotics, automation math and science. Able to torrent and reinstall windows. Side load an app and know basic coding. Anything less = parents have failed. Piano and sport lessons are good and all but for 200 years ago.

lol I don't think people working in tech understand how anti-AI and anti-tech parents are becoming especially when it comes to their kids

@2_the_stadium @LeinsterClub @OMG_ITS_NDABA You cant even ask him now. If he gets the right number of Euros every interview he will regale with some anecdote about dreaming of the green hills of Donegal or some BS.

@RugbyBat @LeinsterClub @OMG_ITS_NDABA That's not how identity works. You're both wrong. And it isn't for either of you to tell him what he is. Have you asked him?

Never beating the allegations

@LeinsterClub @OMG_ITS_NDABA Thats not fully Irish. Hes fully australian.

@OMG_ITS_NDABA De Lutiis is fully Irish, it's just confusing because of his dad's Italian surname.

@RomellOuterSpac @STEVEHAAGSPORT @ballsdotie One of his parents is.

@STEVEHAAGSPORT @ballsdotie His parents are Irish. England cap players with no connection to England

IRFU Reportedly Close To Convincing Australia's Top Prospect To Make Ireland Switch This would be an incredible coup 🤯 balls.ie/rugby/ireland-…

@ballsdotie Incredible coup? No, an incredible asshole thing to do.
