    With NSW Rugby TV, you can watch any game* live and on-demand, anywhere, any time on any device*. I'm already having withdrawals, apologies...

    Subbies and Shute are apples and oranges - one is a competitive level that should be feeding the professional game (stifle your laughter, I know) and one is a game for those who want a game. It's the lower grades of SRU and the higher divs of Subbies where things get murky - that's the area...

    I'd love to know your solution - unfortunately the top end of town is thinning out and unless something changes will likely get thinner and thinner. Clubs are lacking depth - we could very easily get competitive 2 grades and Colts competitions down to at least Div 4, but when a few clubs are...

    We currently have 14 clubs in the top 2 divisions - is there an argument that we may be heading to 7 and 7? Still 14 round seasons (BYE becomes the 8th team in each comp) - maybe those teams v the bye could play friendlies that week (maybe for Cowboy points?)

    Well, no home ground advantage obviously

    Not saying they would actually be attacked but it is certainly an intimidating atmosphere. Should have clarified a referee *might* feel threatened even if there was not necessarily a real threat. Apologies

    Was the game at Headen? I think the crowd can be a bit overwhelming sometimes especially with having to walk back to the car park right behind the home sideline. Can't blame a ref wanting to get home vehicle and health intact to be honest.

    Division 2 Club Championship Club Points UNSW 1205 Petersham 1114 Forest 655 Sydney Irish 646 Briars 643 St Patrick's 633 Very close at the top and bottom of Div 2 CC - if it stays like this, is there any argument to be made about potential pro-reg? Could we see 2 Div 1 teams...

    It's certainly not good reading early on for Drummoyne - last in 1sts, 3rds and 4ths, not in 5ths at all, 2nds are 6th and their best placing ATM is 5th in Colts. They still have a chance of turning things around but will need to get their skates on quickly. It will be hard to argue, based on...

    Sydney Subbies 2025

    I partially agree with the sentiment that we were, at least in parts, better than them in some of the games - finishing and points scoring were our issues, as well as stamina. We had a lot of players covering multiple grades due to various unavailabilities - on a better day, we might have...

    Pro-reg will not work on a regular basis given Subbies is strictly amateur, unlike SRU (but you already knew this, I suspect). Looking through Rugby News archives, I do wonder how different the landscape would be if there was, at least, a second tier SRU competition. I'm sure a club like...

    31-0 winners over UNSW in 5ths (Halligan game) too so a clean sweep at 2 different away venues

    It's all a bit of a beat up - the shorts are more than enough normally, especially with UNSW having sleeve and torso designs on their jerseys now. I more got my teamlists mixed up with the colour coding!
