India has decided to appeal Jadega's Level 1 penalty. Fine but this level of charge is unappealable. Your views on India trying to change the rules mid stream.
10 AnswersCricket7 years agoCan this NSW side win the SOO?
The side being: Jarryd Hayne, Brett Morris, Josh Morris, Michael Jennings, Daniel Tupou, Josh Reynolds, Trent Hodkinson, Aaron Woods, Robbie Farah, James Tamou, Ryan Hoffman, Beau Scott, Paul Gallen (capt). Res: Anthony Watmough, Tony Williams, Trent Merrin, Luke Lewis
It doesn't look too bad. Two good points are that both Pearce and Gidley aren't there. I would have picked a more experienced winger, say a Richards over Tupou. Lewis will be underdone so this could be a problem.

8 AnswersCricket7 years agoWht id you think of this weekend's Super 15?
Some good games, interesting results with Lions, Cheetahs and Otago (great game) getting up. Waratahs again showed they prefer playing in the afternoon with a six try rampage and you had to feel for Mogg in the Reds game.
3 AnswersRugby7 years agoWhat are your views on the proposed "hybrid" game being put forward?
There is talk about the Wallabies playing the English Rugby League team in a hybrid game at Wembley at the end of the Wallabies spring tour. Thirteen a side, the attacking team's rules in their attacking half, shot clocks in place so if a team can't get out of their half in 60 seconds its a handover. Not a great deal more about it.
I watched the other games a few years back between Bath (?) and Wigan where they played two games, one under league rules and one under rugby rules. It was a novelty and that is the way it should stand.

8 AnswersCricket7 years agoWhat do you think of the new rule changes for this coming season?
Zero tackle for 20m restart when a team deliberately kicks the ball dead
40/20 redstarts to be a tap not a scrum
If the ball is kicked out on the full no matter the tackle count, mnon kicking side restarts with a tap
During the last five minutes of the game, the clock will stop from when the goal attempt is completed until the restart.
Captain can only question the ref when a try is scored, play stopped for an injury or a caution and as players leave the field.
Time limit on goal kicking 80 seconds and club fined if over 100 seconds.

2 AnswersRugby League7 years agoWhat do you think of the ACAs comments about moving the Big Bash?
The players association wants it moved to October from the December/January period. A plus for the broadcaster (Southern Cross TV) is that this would put it in the ratings period which could increase advertising revenue. The plus for other cricket in Australia is it gives players game time in the longer format for end of the season tours. As well, the football season has finished at that time and there is a void on television for live sport.
