Reds the next to target Fiji talent

Cordingley revealed he was working on returning the Reds to the top after a dismal recent campaign and that Fiji was a good place to start.

TBH it's a worry for Au rugby not just Queensland. We don't need any side to be as bad as they were last year.

RG has been bad for Australian rugby for about 4 seasons now. Why do those in charge of rugby in this country not see it? I note though that they haven't let him anywhere near the Flagship Waratah!

Qld rugby should give the money back to the ARU that they receive for developing local talent in Qld's vast local competition.
