Sophie Edington, partner[edit]

Added: His partner Sophie Edington is a Commonwealth Games gold medalist, and former holder of the world record for the 50m backstroke.[sourced from Rebels' press release.] wcrosbie, Melbourne, Australia 23:55, 13 October 2010 (UTC)

Opinions without citation[edit]

Opinions without citation have no place in wikipedia. Such changes will be reversed, because, for example:

There is no evidence Byrnes has played rugby at the 'highest level' for any Southern Hemisphere test side
References to 'popularity' aren't wikipedic.

Constructive edits need to be factual with appropriate citations. wcrosbie (talk), Melbourne, Australia 00:02, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

SANZAR & verbal attack[edit]

I've reinserted the following: "SANZAR labelled Byrnes' tongue lashing an "unwarranted and serious verbal attack" and fined him $7500.^[1]" Please, if you have any issues, discuss here. wcrosbie (talk), Melbourne, Australia 10:18, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speculation without source[edit]

I've removed the following (again): "He may be returning to the UK and maybe Wales?" Please, do do not reinstate it, at least not without a source. wcrosbie (talk), Melbourne, Australia 10:23, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
