    Thanks for clarifying that TGB, good to hear. I did also hear that Norths have again nominated 2nd Grade as their 'flagship' team and that players are being encouraged to stay in that team rather than play up the grades. Is there some truth to that considering Norths 2nds are currently winning...

    I think you'll find Shane Arnold may be in line for a more permanent position on the Reds staff, depending how the Aus 20s go. His role has already expanded a lot in 2015 and he did well in the NRC. I think the Reds could do with a younger 'modern' coach in their attacking role to offset the...

    Haha Im not trying to push any Norths buttons TT! I'm genuinely interested as to how Fogs is getting on. It is interesting from a GPS supporters perspective to see two blokes (Picone and Fogarty) struggle a bit as I for one think they are both decent coaches but things haven't gone to plan this...

    Can anyone from Norths comment on what Fogarty's relationship is like in the wider club scheme at the moment? A few guys from GPS caught up with him after the Premier game and got the impression there was some friction there, not sure as a by product of the less than flattering results or maybe...

    GPS 57 def Norths 17 Norths again conceding 50 points in a game!! What is going on with their defence?

    As has been pointed out many times on these forums, Knuckles has had very limited coaching opportunities in the last couple of years therefore they wouldn't be bringing him on board due to his outstanding record of late. Instead I can only imagine the QRU are trying to create a 'good cop, bad...

    I thought it had already been essentially confirmed that JOC (James O'Connor) realigned himself with Brothers?

    Will be interesting if Norths ask to switch the venues around and whether it would still count as Norths home round. GPS prebook marquees for certain weekends so they may still want to keep the round 2 games at Yoku.

    All games, barring juniors are being played at yoku today. A good result for the club. In the uni v Bros department, I really feel for the 50 odd guys involved in prem colts, having to kickoff at 1230 just before the big fight!

    Any clubs pulled the pin on games yet? Sounds like GPS are keen to at least play all Premier games at Yoku, although I get a feeling most games will go ahead. Although, apparently heaviest rainfalls supposed to happen tonight so may be some early morning cancellations for the lower grade dew...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2015

    Is it a bit pre-mature to be postponing games? Its only 3pm on Thursday. I know the rain is supposed to settle in but still, early call! I know GPS will be doing whatever the opposite of a rain dance is to get maximum games played on Saturday due to Ladies Day. If Ladies Day does go ahead it...

    Majority of those blokes would be playing for professional contracts as well, which creates an interesting situation for QRU selectors. It's almost like throwing at a dart board as being young fellas it can sometimes be hard to gauge how much upside they have or whether they've hit their peak...

    With the BYE this weekend for the Reds anyone know of blokes filtering back to club rugby? I've heard Chris Kuridrani will be running out for GPS, not sure of others at this stage.

    Okay thanks for clarify your position Waterboy, I look forward to some of your other videos. As for cynical old heads bashing players and player comparisons, this is an Internet discussion forum where people have conflicting views and opinions on players. Just because someone comes off as...

    Question for the Uni supporters; Is having 30+ Colts graduating to grades each year becoming counter-intuitive to creating depth in middle/lower grades? Are some of the older (and I mean by footy standards mid-late twenties) players feeling like they can retire earlier as there are plenty of...

    Anyone seen these 'Water Boy' videos floating around on YouTube that follow the life and times of Sam Greene? I only came across them today but noticed they were posted a few weeks ago so I might be a bit slow. Whoever is making the videos seems to be a huge Greene/Brothers fanboy as it...

    I'm a bit confused by the point you're trying to make Cat. I wasn't having a crack at Uni in that regard, just speaking in terms of experience in what I've noticed with how Uni middle/lower grade teams fair when it comes to finals. Uni undoubtedly are the front runners in terms of getting...

    Taking away GPS only two prospects! Harsh! I think you'll find in the lower grade comps this year it'll go like it usually does with standout teams storming home to win the comp. Uni also get quite a few runs on the board during the season in 2nds, 3rds and 4ths but for lack of a better term...

    Reds 2015

    "Their belief is that Graham’s modest seven from 24 record in Perth should not be held against him as all Force coaches have struggled and that he also deserves to be cut some slack this season because the Reds have been decimated by injury." That part actually sounds like it was written by...
