Lack of an Australian deal angers Edmonds

[James]

I wonder which two teams we will miss out on next year then. We got a bit ripped off missing the Chiefs/Cheetahs.

alphabetical order (I think) so the Force will miss the next down the list Lions and the Highlanders.

[James]

That would be annoying. Those two are always good for wins.

But alphabetical order would actually be Crusaders and Lions.

Its the same number of rounds in 2012 as it was in 2011...

yes,but the June tours mean test players have extra matches in the season,with the super 15 not finishing until August.

Not really that different from this season when the super rugby season leads straight into test match rugby... If anything next season gives players not involved in test rugby the chance to recover and have a break.

It was a sporting gesture by the Brumbies (CEO Andrew Fagan) to release him to go west.

It was also the best recriutment move the Brumbies made all season, apart from sacking the Coach and appointing "the committee" of course

I read a few years ago on SArugby.com that he got the arse from the Springbok job, cause he didnt speak Afrikkanners and the Nazis from Joburg and Pretoria thought this was a terrible remiss on his behalf, even when successful. Never liked him, but he is cluey and the Brumbies have got him.He maybe the man to kick them into gear. They are presently a shower.

Looks like he's already started. You right he needs to kick start the Brumbies they had a crap season...
