    I wonder where International Rugby is at with the notion of "Utility Player" this season?
    Didn't seem to gain traction in SRP.

    Probably less of an issue with 1-2 game trips, but necessary when picking a squad for a multi-game tournament

    True, but thinking more in terms of the 6/2 Bench approach and players like Anstee covering the Backs at a pinch.
    We went 6/2 but still didn't pick hum.

    Seeing as he was allegedly being attempted to sign for the Tahs, would seem their need for Canham will be greater than ours too.

    Would have hoped the Captain would have announced re-signing by now in some attempt to get confidence.
    Only justification I can see would be around seeing if he makes the Wallaby Squad or not tomorrow before coming to terms.

    I am convinced they will feather their own nest before anyone else gets a gander.

    That said, their squad is a shambles at the moment and they've got no coach, feel sorry for FLW

    It looks like none of the rebels players want to sign for them and the off contract ones are going overseas, so I think we can tell how Ra are advising them.

    Academy player Finn Prass at #10 for Brothers v Souths if anyone looking for an alternative to SRP Final to watch today.
    Also Grason Makara at #13.

    Prass had a pretty good match, has an absolute cannon of a kick for touch on him.
    Good match to watch if looking to fill some time.

    I heard somewhere that the Thas only have 21 contracted players for the 25 season. I just looked at our confirmed list, and we are at 19. Lack of signings is surely not to do with salary cap just yet.

    The Roar suggests that not many of the Rebels want to sign with the Thas, combo of no coach, crap season in 24 and cost of living in Syd.

    The lack of any signing announcements by the force is becoming a little concerning....
