5 man over lap to the Darkness. Simple try for NZL. Great to be aggressive and go for the big hits, but you gotta make the hits where the ball is other wise you end up defending 1 vs 5.

Bit of ginger so far. Good to see the Men in Gold standing up.

Could be a long night.

^^^ Surely GAGR is Gunston And Gunston Recordings.

Might have missed it, but I assume that Nick Styles is no longer head coach. That may be a major factor in the "new look" City team. To be fair, the Eagles team is probable the best mob in NSW, so falling short in game 1 may not be such a big issue in the grand scheme of things.

Horwitz has some defensive frailties that need to be ironed out of his game if he is to progress beyond being a fringe Super Rugby player.

Give the Shield a break. Playing it at every game the holder plays in cheapens the prestige of the shield. It is supposed to be hard to get. It has to be won by beating the current holder at their home oval. Leave it at that. If no other side can beat the holder at home, then the holder...

City looking a shadow of 2014/15 teams. Strachan seems to a capable player. Good to see players that were not schoolboy protégés getting a go.

Probably best to take the U20 angst to the 2017 U20 thread. http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/threads/2017-under-20-rugby-world-championships-georgia.16945/

Dear FoxSports, Can we have some new commentators please? These ones are not fit for purpose. regards Hugh

Some years are "good" for conversion of PSSA reps to Schoolboys, Super Rugby and Wallabies. Some not so. Any Statisticians out there? I suspect over time that the correlation of selection into PSSA as a 12 year old, and eventual selection into Wallaby Squad is statistically irrelevant...

^^^Gerentologists appointment?

Full Moon at Homebush.

The various club constitutions will state the requirements for Auditing of their accounts. Most clubs are Incorporated entities, if not trading as a registered Company entity. None are privately owned to the best of my knowledge, The clubs would have to comply with NSW financial legislation...

Welcome to the Hotel California, @RugbyFan14. The main issue is not the existence of scholarships (in their various guises) but the fact that the 9 Heafs of School from the NSW AAGPS Schools have specifically agreed against these. Not only is it "olde school" in the best of gentlemanly...

Bugger the vuvuzela, just get the boys singing with all their hearts.

I'm pretty sure that JP lives on the Central Coast. It'd be a bit of a drag commuting from the Central Coast to Penrith several times a week in addition to his "normal" work. Something needs to be done to make the Emu's more competitive. I'm not sure by whom or how? What was the outcome of...

2017 thread up and running. http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/threads/john-i-dent-cup-2017-act-premier-rugby.17040/ Take next seasons wang there. Stay on this thread with the 2016 wrap ups, teams of the year, and club award night details etc.

^^^I like that concept but struggle to see how it would work in effect. The lower grades at many clubs have lots of "social" players who only play a couple of games either because they get injured, just help out for a game or two, lose interest, CBF doing the full season due to other priorities...
