Good morning!

Hansie's Round 6 Super 12 wrap up is live - I couldn't help but notice that he did a lot better in the tipping this round than yours truly. Granted, that wasn't difficult :) He's also included some observations about coaching in South Africa. Interesting reading - thanks mate!

Wendell Sailor has been cleared of a head butting charge after last Friday night's game against the Highlanders and has expressed his frustration in an article in Foxsports. No doubt it isn't only Wendell who is frustrated with the way that the Reds are performing this Super 12 season.

The QRU site this morning tells us that Jeff Miller has added Ben Tune, Lloyd Johannsson, Brock James, Anthony Mathsion and Daniel Heenan to the squad. It's a start! I don't understand why there isn't more representation from Gold Coast Breakers players in the Queensland squad - the Breakers won the Premier rugby comp last year and their forward pack dominated all others before them. And still.... for the large part they remain ignored for selection. And still.... the Reds get hammered. Why not give some fresh blood a go? They surely can't perform any more poorly as a team, and it might just give the Reds the shake up they're looking for to get going forward again. Same old same old every week sure isn't working.
