Melbourne Rebels are no more

had a friend who worked there for years

they've done a pretty job of engaging the pacific islander base, as @No. 31 said

but for the most part they're completely anonymous in melbourne from an engagement and junior development perspective

rugby australia has a lot to answer for - how that sport has squandered its success in the 90s and 00s is extraordinary

99.9% of Victorians wouldn't be able to name a single Rebels player, let alone be interested in attending games. 

The way that team has been promoted is abysmal. Hopefully it frees up sponsorship dollars for the MFC.

Yes, there was absolutely no promotion at all. Rugby Australia are to blame for all of this. 
Letting it out on the eve of a Finals Campaign 

Shameful, hope it goes to Court

Watching the Rebs last ever H&A match in Fiji on Stan Sports. The Rebels giving it a good crack with the score 19-19 against Fijian Drua.

Carn the Rebs!

They needed someone like Cam Pedo to come in and shake things up. But thinking outside the dodecagon, any of their guys be any good a full forward?

I used to know Wallaby players' names; now I don't even know or care when, where and on what channel games are on. Hurry up and merge League and Yawnion.
