The ARU is apparently going to make Stephen Larkham a counter offer to try and keep him from taking up the Worcester offer - pretty hard to turn down $2.5m though. Guess we'll see what happens!

Seems that there's bit of a kerfuffle going on between David Nucifora and Joe Roff. Roff is the Brumbie's player representative on the ACT board, and Nucifora believes that Roff should have excused himself from the meeting where the board decided to oust Nucifora at the end of the season. It's a moot point now though isn't it??

Meanwhile, the Waratahs will be happy - Phil Waugh is back and ready to play this weekend after recovering from injury. Here's hoping his presence makes all the difference for the Tahs!

Over and out!
