    Concussions and Protecting Our Players

    Yes, but in saying that it should be compulsory reading for every coach and administrator, you are completely disregarding the role of the player in this. In Hape's own words..."advised me to listen to the specialists and stop playing" I understand that there are systemic issues around...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    Yes - had about 2min in the first half replacing Tom Pincus, but didn't see the ball until the 2nd.

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    Rota Setu might be the player you're thinking of. I thought he and Herman Porter were very dangerous. Neither involved with the Reds. JJ Taulagi might also be the player you're thinking of - who is with the Reds - scoring two tries. All three from a distance look fairly similar on the field...

    I don't know your source TT but Uni 1 has never been "approved" as a night game location. They might mean Uni 2 (of course, that has to be while the tennis courts are lit too - that field can get pretty dim after those lights go out!). In fact the lighting of the main field is often a platform...

    Yes, apparently it is. Maybe if the trees are trimmed back?

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    Track went in around 1999-2000 or so. It's regular length and shape, but I think there is a difference in where the high-jump and javelin areas are. And there isn't any seating at the ends of the grounds, or barricades to notice how close the corner of the in-goal is to the track, but many...

    Any other instagram watchers note Albert Anae spending a few days in Canberra? Strange place to take the family for a two- or three-day holiday in May...

    I personally didn't read Filth's comment as shit stirring; I thought he meant the (urban dictionary) definition of mediocre performance according to match results. Given rugby results are determined by scoreboards, and you don't get points for pretty, I thought his comment (and comparison to...

    QLD Colts 2014

    Exactly my thoughts - juniors + reigning Prem grade Premiers = surprising.

    QLD Colts 2014

    Does anyone know what is happening with Easts Prem Colts? I heard some good things prior to Christmas, then haven't heard much since then (aside from something about a coach leaving), and now I see they're 1-6 on the table. http://www.redsrugby.com.au/GrassrootsRugby/FixturesResults.aspx Also...

    Reds 2015

    That is exactly what we're doing with the big push on these forums to sack Graham.

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    Agree that it's disappointing, but I think there are a few reasons from the the Reds' perspective managing workload of some players - those that have been playing 60min and up for weeks and travelling extensively especially minimise the risk of injury in positions where the Reds are already...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    Allegedly retired now Filth - I say allegedly because I'm still around and if a game needs covering or extra hands are required I slip into something a little more comfortable (shoes, usually!). Had a brief dealing with Brothers earlier in the year - great people to deal with. And mine was...

    Aaaahh Filth you've chanced upon a pet hate of mine... Excuse the rant I hate hearing trainers and water runners throwing chat at opposition players or refs. The medical staff are not involved in the competition and they don't (and shouldn't) have any influence on the game - it is their job to...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    Looking at the Doughty Shield standings is interesting- Norths ahead of Easts and Logan City ahead of Norths. Maybe just a relic of bye rounds, but I can't personally recall a time where a team without a Premier Grade side (such as Logan) has been ahead of clubs with close to a full complement...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    TT by saying that Brothers "probably" deserved the win it sounds like there was some controversial play or calls that went against Easts. Any further details? And when you said that had Jonah played, Easts would likely have won, it sounds like you saw some weaknesses that Jonah would've...

    Reds 2015

    Reg keep an eye on Moses Sorovi - the Uni Prem Colts 9 and reserve Premier grade 9. He's very very good.

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    Well, GPS were on the end a shellacking at Uni today which I (and seemingly every other spectator) just didn't see coming. Looked like a terrible day at the office for GPS where everything that could go wrong did and the more anyone tried the more it went bad. Not taking anything away from a...
