Agree its a massive slippery slope.

He certainly got close to horizantal before Newport realised him. Its interesting with Red cards, as that arguably cost Newport the game which is a pretty signifcant penalty and that doesnt seem to get taken into account during the review process. Lets hope clutch get that coverage up as im...

Can any one confirm that Epping colts and Hunters Hill have some sort of arrangement? Plenty of Hunters Hill socks in the Rams backline and they played a lot better than their ladder position would have indicated pushing Newport all game. I think HH had a 2nds colts team and maybe its a merge?

Maybe a yellow. Newport were already down two men when the ref dispatched the red for a dangerous tackle. I'd like to see it on clutch to provide a better opinion.

Epping did well to hang in there till halftime and limit it to 17-0 and then capitalised on Newport illdiscipline that saw them at one stage reduced to 12 men. The Newport boys toughed it out to still be in with a chance with 5 to go but Epping played smart footy and kicked well, keeping...

Newport cruising at 17-0 and in control but Epping certainly made the most of 15 on 12 with 2 yellows and a red card in the 2nd half.

Premier Clubs want nothing to do with those grubby subbies clubs. Subbies is viewed as somethng that should be crushed as they drain lower grade numbers for grade.

Div 2 standard across all grades is the weakest it has been probaly ever.. The only club playing near Div 2 traditional standard is Lindfield. I think Beecorft would be giving 2nd Div a shake this year if they were there.

Maybe next year grade will be better organised before clubs do their own thing. Im hearing those involved in Div 3 comp are loving the regular game time. But the Rats whom missed the boat and had to opt as the Forest II team in Radfield Cup for their 4ths have started to lose a few to local...

For those who dont have time to play detective cant we just name the clubs. I'm sure you wont be sued.

Those rules were written for another era when clubs were worried about relegation. Now for many it is only about survival, in whatever Div you can muster numbers in. The weekly question now for some clubs is how many players on hand for this weekend? If you dont have the cattle. flogging those...

Have to agree with you, from what I have seen thus far 2nd Div is of very poor standard compared with even last year. Saying that I watched Rats vs Souths and Marlins vs Norths and the overall skillset wasnt much chop. I turned off Waratahs when it got to humilation levels I couldnt cope...

I’m sure the girls would appreciate a set time rather than be shunted around each week from 10.00am to 3.30pm. Hard for clubs to get them to commit when it changes every week.

My read is that the Rats were expecting to get a 4th grade colts comp away with the few other Shute Shield clubs that could field one but were a little blindsided when Easts, Manly and Gordon committed their teams to subbies comps to ensure regular game day action. Undertandably rather than see...

I'd sadly say rugby is dying. How many did the tahs get on Saturday night? Its care factor zero at Super rugby level. More alarmingly is mini's rego's are reportedly down 30/40% Sydney wide at junior level. Looking for the postive I note the 7's girls comp is up and running which could be a...

That Forest II side is Warringah 4th grade colts.

Reporting from Porters... Newport vs Briars was a disspointment for the healthy crowd on hand hoping to see some competitive footy. Game was over mid 1st half with Newports slick backs and workman like pack running riot over a pretty limited Briars. Breakers appear to have unearthed a...

They better stock up the canteen and BBQ with two Divs playing next to each other.

Do any other Div 1's get much of a crowd?

Suprised to not hear of any forefeits for tomoz as yet.
