    Because Muddy knows all Jargs, keep up! He's the oracle master or something. He's teh one that knows the Wallabies team for the 2011 RWC... Muddy's word is law! I feel like re-wording a Chuck Norris quote as the conclusion, but I think that might be a bit too far...

    I think there will be a Reds team, seeing as we've got the extra team being annouced the year after. They've granted us the extra team, they'll hardly give it us if we just lost a team, the ARU will perhaps help them out if needed? JON has seemingly fought hard for the extra team, if it just brings us back to level with what we are I doubt he would be impressed.

    To my knowledge, the only as yet unconfirmed departure is McMeniman, who has hardly strapped on a boot for the Reds in 4 years. If Digby goes, the Reds have picked up Will Chambers from the Melbourne Storm (a rugby product from Brisbane) who scored 2 tries on the weekend. He is a very good centre. Pie man Turinui is still there too .

    With Daniel Braid's injury and therefore his inability to play in the northern hemisphere, he is back in talks with the Reds.

    So in answer to the question, it seems that the Reds have kept virtually their entire group together for 2010 and have blooded some good young prospects this year as well.

    You must remember that this is and has been for the last 2 years, the youngest playing group in super rugby by a solid margin. I guess you can't coach experience, you have to play for it. Keeping the group together is the best way to see the results turn around.

    Think this might be a question more appropriate for the clock brothers...

    I personally hope they do keep the team together for enough time for it to gel.

    Despite my constant badgering of the clock brothers, I would actually be delighted to see Queensland not be crap.....I don't hate them, it's just that I haven't rated them for more years than I care to remember.

    I'll barrack for the Reds in any QLD vs NSW match any time any where, would look at the best team on paper vs the Brumbies and there's no question the gets my vote when they meet.

    A couple of years together, and a bit more acid from the coach when they stuff up badly could see a hugely competitive team which will only be a bad thing if they're better than the force!

    I wouldn't worry too much about that Jauzy, South Africa has struggled to get three competitive teams

    Toulouse or Clermont would beat all your 4 teams.

    Reds fans would surely be shattered about things, lets hope they can keep a team going.

    the QLD Reds is about more then the 15players which run onto the field, they could be crap for the next 10years and they will still keep coming back
