Simon Poidevin Quotations

I've been as puzzled as many out there as to why he hasn't had a go. He's such a great runner I just hope he continues to go on with it.

This is a chance this weekend to showcase I think the two exciting sides in the Super 14 and it can only be a better game for both sides using their attacking weapons out there. And there is plenty of them both in the forwards and the backs.

Considering the amount of time, effort and resources clubs put into nurturing junior talent, it is high time that the transfer payment concept was looked at very seriously. It is time for clubs to get some monetary reward for producing Super 14 representatives and Wallabies.

The attitude of the NSWRU and ARU towards club rugby is all about lip service, and it is a disgrace. Their focus appears to be entirely on Super 14 and international football.

They did not fade in that Crusaders game in a very intimidating environment and could quite easily have won it.
