    ANZAC Day anthems - BRU vs CHI

    This is looking more promising than some people's attempts to get Waltzing Matilda going at the Sydney test between the Wallabies and the Lions. That was woeful. Credit to the 10 lads behind me at that game that tried. I'm hoping this isn't all talk! Glad to be a Ruckus crew member! Up the Brums!

    No no I agree with you I think he is great, just off the tv screen ;) Met him as an ankle biter back in the day when the brumbies did the Macquarie Bank training day at Joeys. His son actually jumped on a coke can and it burst and sprayed all over my mum. He was really apologetic and offered to...

    Rugby TV Shows

    Gee you lot are a sour bunch! After reading the last few pages of comments, I think the show is getting much much better. I enjoy watching it every week. I have a love of the technical game analysis of things, but GAGR seem to fix that for me whenever the lads on fox don't go into great detail...

    Wallaby 31 players for 2015 RWC

    I like the look at that team but again fardy needs to be at 6, Higgers at 8, horwill on the bench. Not entirely sure about Jones either. I like the look of other squad members though!

    Wallaby 31 players for 2015 RWC

    I put Wykes in there because I think he is a key component to the Force's go forward. I think Carter whilst works just as hard if not harder, tends to give away a lot of penalties for the brums. Horwill does not deserve a starting spot, Pyle is gone ( :( ), Simmons can be hot and cold and fardy...

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    This from Bill Pulver himself just a few moments ago on ROAR : "We’re in the final stages of getting approval from each national Union of SANZAR (New Zealand, South Africa, Australia), on the competition structure for Super Rugby 2016-2020. We are hopeful this will be completed within the next...

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    I'm more questioning the attacking part of your comment. The attack part of the game hasn't really ever come into question until the mid 2000's (the peak being 2007 after the RWC Final)

    The defence have to back up 10 metres otherwise it defeats the purpose of the free arm/long arm penalty. It might as well be play on.

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    I still think you have to keep the essence and the art of the scrum. Whilst agree the process has to be quicker, we can't fall victim to the 'instant' nature that everyone thrives for, and remove what is a beautiful way to contest for the ball. It's what makes Rugby special... and league not so...

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    Such a petty rule. This I agree with! I think if you start messing around with the points system, its either going to result in more penalties because the punishment for infringement is lessened; slowing the game down, or you are going to have more kicks at goal and/or massive game changers on...

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    I really think the "Sydney Stars" is a poor name. I think it should more native australian animal orientated personally. Otherwise you end up sounding like you are copying the NFL with teams like the Cowboys and Broncos... Canberra Kookaburras is perfect! I like it!

    ISA Rugby 2013

    Well I'm going to uni so I probably won't be around to play for blacks. At the moment, I'm most likely going to be going to canberra. Hopefully I can get an opportunity there maybe with Uni Owls or another club.

    Thanks very much. Yeah the rucks killed us and some critical penalties didn't go our way unfortunately. Gutted, but proud of the boys and Chev. Thank you so much for those photos they are unreal. I'll post the Youtube link to the presentation in a few moments. It's been great to have you down at...

    ISA Rugby 2013

    From what I know in the Under 15's Chev lost to CCGS In the 16's, Chev comfortably beat Redfield In the First XV Redfield beat Chev 22- 10. Devastated :( Redfield's rucking won them the game plus some pretty dodgy calls at critical moments in the game including a forward pass that would have...
