Hearing rumours Petersham will be very lucky to field a Colts team in 2022 - any truth to this? Should it be true, they aren't much different to the Div 4 Rams!? I don't envy Subbies - a real square peg and round hole situation. I'm not sure what the solution is but I do feel Lindfield, UNSW &...

I can see from Facebook and Instagrams subbies pre-seasons are slowly kicking off around the place. St Pats have a video up on Facebook advertising free subs in 2020!? Anyone have any idea what’s going on there, seems like an odd move to me. Would certainly take a fair chunk out of their...

I can see why Knox would want to get relegated as there 1s and 2s have really struggled for the last 3 years or so. Interested to see if subbies would let them and how they'd manage the move. Only last Saturday Knox won 3rd Grade in Division 1 whilst there colts finished in 3rd place. Off the...

I think you'll find that the Forest crowd aren't alone in their ways and I do agree they are pests. I will however concede that despite my dislike for Forest at times they always have a strong crowd and clearly have a strong culture. Congrats to them on a great 2019 . From my experience the St...

Some good quality rugby played at David Phillips yesterday with Forest, Hunters Hill and Lindfield the big winners on the day with St Pats and Hills left to lick their wounds. Understand the practical benefits of playing the games at the same time and place but the field where the major semis...

Having a closer look at the team sheet it may seem as though we haven't given BOBS enough credit. They've shown already that they have potential to knock off the top teams beating Forest earlier in the year. Either way if HH got up it would have put them in the box seat for the club championship.

Sad state of affairs that only there was only 1 Div 1 colts game today. 3 forfeits is ridiculous. Not sure what happened with Hunters Hill 1st Grade today, stranger result, even if they had players out. Forest lead the club championship by 1 point. It’s anyones game but the BOBs forfeit in 4th...

The club championship battle really heats up at the top for Div 2 and Div 3. In Div 2 it looks HH and Forest look to battle it out both coming up against BOBs and Lindfield in the last 2 rounds. Forest with the narrowest of leads and IMO are the stronger club but do they harbour any ambition...

Does anyone know why the 2nd Grade match between Forest and Epping was 'abandoned'. My only though would be a serious injury? Blue Mountains have really made a good fist of their opening 4 rounds. There upcoming match v Drummoyne is shaping up as a beauty!

Couple of surprise results in Div 2. BOBs knocking off UNSW on back to UNSW day in their 70th year was a bit of a surprise. Well done to BOBs for starting their Div 2 endeavours on the right foot. Based purely off last years results Lindfield beating Epping was a bit unexpected but in their...

No I took it down because I thought it may have been more trouble that it was worth. I do 100% standby what I say and should add that there are so many clubs out there doing great work that aren't Mosman, Colleagues and Petersham. Clubs that spring to mind are Epping and Hills that turn out 4...

Not St Pats, same coaching team as last year, strong player retention from 2018 and good numbers thus far at pre season with no hint of dissatisfaction with the club management who's been there for years. Doubt West Harbour would be in a position to let colts play grade anywhere. They...

I saw that Saiyasi Ikanidrodro was named in Gordon's mens 7s team on the weekend just gone by. He was the winger nominated for the Div 2 medal. Either way, St Clair or Gordon, I don't think he will be playing at Lapstone this year. I'm sure Blueys would have some replacements ready to go, there...

Correct and St Pats have obviously decided a 4th grade premiership is preferable to a mid table 3s finish.

Same with St Pats, their 4s came minor premiers and comfortably took out the title with some overqualified 4th grade players whilst 3rd grade ran dead last and 2nd last in 2s. That's been the case at St Pats with 4th grade and 3rd grade for quite some time. It's just a reality of subbies rugby.

I tend to think that Blueys will do OK in 2019. I don't think they'll be able to compete club wide with heavyweights like Mosman, Petersham or Colleagues for instance but do feel they will be in Div 1 in 2020. Does anyone have any news on whether Waverley or Balmain have any prospect of running...

Does anyone have any word on promotions/relegations. I'm presuming Blue Mountains and Hunters Hill will be a straight swap. I see Barker Old Boy's advertising coaching positions for 3 grades and a colts, which would suggest they either have a 4th grade coach or they aren't moving into Div 2. I...

Congratulations to Petersham on back to back Kentwell's, a fine achievement no matter how you look at it. Coach Nicholls seems to be able to win them for fun after coaching the past 2 years at Petersham and coaching one of the best Kentwell sides I've ever seen in St Pats 2014. Drummoyne have...

I don't know the circumstances of the citing but seems a bit ordinary to me. It was a good game, convincingly won by the better team. St Pats aren't the most popular bunch going at the best of times and I can't imagine Blue Mountains would be a fan any longer, if they ever were.

Yes it was, the poor West Harbour players looked to be sick of pouring beers during the colts game. Nothing wring with a few tins to make life easier. They must get it dirt cheap otherwise can't see any upside.
