Zac Lomax joins Western Force on two-year deal, ending contract saga Zac Lomax has signed a two-year deal with Western Force, ending a dramatic contract saga that has been running for months.

Signed him for a relative bargain, I'd imagine!

With the world cup looming we have New Zealand running scared. Get excited!

โ€˜Dream to play for the Wallabiesโ€™: Crichton to depart Roosters for World Cup tilt Angus Crichton has become the latest Rooster to make a move to the 15-man game and will switch codes at the end of 2026.

A couple former rugby players have seen the error of their mungo ways, and are returning to the game they play in heaven!

Ouch. New Zealand are in our World Cup pool in 2027. Chile and Hong Kong round out the pool.

R360 launch postponed for two years after 'handful of players' withdraw Threats of long bans for prospective R360 players prompted "a handful" of them to withdraw from the rebel league, which now says it will launch in 2028 instead of next year.

And now "postponed" for 2 years. Any players they've signed will start to drift away now.

Dead in the water: Agents ready to walk away from R360 once and for all - and the telltale sign it's over R360 โ€“ the touted financially lucrative rebel rugby competition, which has led to 10-year threats from the NRL and international unions banning players โ€“โ€ฆ

Looks like R360 is nearly at the end of the road. Thank goodness for that.

No Rugby Championship next year, but the Nations Championship games have been announced.

The game against Japan will be the first for Les Kiss as coach.

Rugby Australiaโ€™s confident call on โ€˜worldโ€™s best coachโ€™ after crushing 67-year low Rugby Australiaโ€™s confident call on โ€˜worldโ€™s best coachโ€™ after crushing 67-year low

I know it's been a rough end to the year, but shocked that anyone's talking about this! Especially given he only has a few games left regardless.

Thank goodness this season is finally over.

Let's talk about cricket for a while instead, at least the Ashes are going well!

One more time for the year... sigh. O'Connor out of the squad completely, Angus Bell back, Bobby V on the bench, and a name on the bench I don't even recognise.

Maybe the cricket will be better. Wait, never mind. ๐Ÿ

These things are rarely just one issue. A combination of fatigue and unfamiliar combinations, perhaps?

You're right though, either way the coach gets criticised... unless you're winning!

Yeah, he's pretty good, I guess ๐Ÿ˜‰.

Would love to see him with some more space and opportunities against France this weekend.

Ireland's execution was a *lot* better than ours, they deserved that win.

And for the 2nd week in a row, we're sunk by an Australian. Lynagh last week, Hansen this week.

We take on the always exceptional Ireland tomorrow morning. 7am AEDT. Hopeful as always, but the hope has faded a little, I'll admit.

Ikitau and O'Connor to start against Ireland. Serious strength added to the inside backs here. Thank goodness.

He's back, and not a moment too soon. Here's hoping we salvage something this tour.

Exclusive: Youngest Lynagh to follow Wallaby Tom to Queensland Reds The Wallabies might have lost the battle over the weekend to Louis Lynaghโ€™s Italy, but perhaps Australian rugby will win the war after luringโ€ฆ

We're getting another Lynagh. Well 2 out of 3 ain't bad, though the third contributed to our downfall on the weekend.

Congratulations to Italy though, for a breakthrough win against the Wallabies. Their first ever, if I recall correctly. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น

Well, we could be on track for a winless record in Europe on this tour.๐Ÿ˜ญ

The ugly, old ill-disclipline of previous teams has crept back in.

A horribly unsocial hour, but here's hoping we can get the tour back on track against Italy tonight. A few hours till kick off.

The team to play Italy this weekend. Carter Gordon is the new no. 10.

How do you think he'll go? I thought Edmed had some really good patches against England, but I'd swap then both for O'Connor right now!

5 minutes left, down 25-7 and I'm going to bed. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ

2nd half start with promise, but the England pack got on top. Australia couldn't stop the rolling mauling, and conceded two tries in a few minutes as a result.

Half time, and England lead 10-7. A cracking try by Potter keeps the game close.
