Shore go in late and convert to make it 41-24 @ FT. They fought really hard in patches then had some dumb tactics for a lot of it. Waaaaaay too much kicking to the View #15 who just ate up the metres and scored a couple in the process. Pretty scrappy game compared to HH.

Shore down a prop, a hooker and yellow card 1'30 into the game. Will be a long afternoon from here.

Wow. Kings looking the goods at the moment.

Correct. All DoE sanctioned.

Correct

I know that at least one game today will have yr12 boys from both schools in attendance.

I think you will find that some schools have received dispensation from the DoE for restricted crowds today. Could be that.

Well, at least not for 6-8 weeks.

I think (and hope) thats a pretty fair summation of where Gordon are at right now. Walton tried hard but didnt really click with Iona. Quite a few balls went to ground due to bad timing plus good defensive pressure. They have also moved their hooker to 6 to accomodate Abel which might take...

I was at the Gordon v Norths game today. I was really impressed by Norths and how composed they were. Deserved winners although could have gone the other way. Gordon look like they are relying on a few players to win. North’s Gordon final very conceivable.

Not tall enough at 191cm. Will make a good backrower though.

Its good to see Jamie Pandaram finally writing about rugby and getting good scoops rather than s**tcanning rugby on behalf of his employers media rights bid.

Sio was struggling to keep his bind in that game and was pretty rightly pinged for it. Wasn't the only time this year he struggled.

He has been killing it for Eastwood the last few weeks in Shute Shield. Really good signing for the Force. I reckon he would make a good #6.

I wasnt the one who said that individual players data can be accessed. That would be a breach of privacy and no one would consent to it anyway. However, there is absolutely a centralised database that Catapult create from collecting users data via their Playertek system and it does get shared...

Pretty sure you meant “Schoolyard pick” but they shouldn’t have trouble finding a few pricks for that squad. I like it either way.

Actually, there is a local and global database of player workload data which is being shared globally. The leading global company for sports analytics is Catapult sports (https://www.catapultsports.com/). They supply GPS and "Local Positioning Systems" to all sorts of sports but have a suite...

I can't believe I haven't seen this thread before - its my new favourite thread. Not sure if you've seen this one: Simon Poidevin - stock market manipulation, banned by ASIC...

Yeah, I can't work out the angle on that one either. I'd be shocked if a registered agent isn't trying to give him advice free of charge in the hope of landing him as a client later however the terms that he put forward (according to media reports) are definitely non-standard so it doesn't seem...

Whilst he doesnt have an agent there is some guy called Steve Nasteski who the Herald variously describes as a "mysterious art dealer" or "prestige car dealer" who is allegedly close to Sua'ali'i and advising him. I suspect he might not be getting good advice given Souths have rejected the demand...
