I would expect players to be allowed to leave after their Super Rugby commitments have been fulfilled, would depend on the contract specifics though. If a player is known to be leaving for another team in 2017 then it seems a bit redundant to be keeping him on the roster for the affiliated NRC...

BYE isn't coming at a great time for GPS. A tough and well played game against UQ followed by a gritty win against Sunnybank would have the players feeling good about their chances to knock off another team. Hopefully they keep themselves game ready and give Souths a good run when they meet...

This entire thread needs a 24hr 'inverted coma' ban I reckon. Sheesh.

I think you'll find that although most coaches and clubs are honest, the substitution policy gets abused more that one would think in teams which are below Premier Grade. I have been involved in a few instances of non-Premier Grade teams where the QRU have been contacted about excessive...

Wouldn't be surprised if he was referring to GPS? There are players coming into the club left, right and center but of course with Premier Colts having yet to win a game so far this year (and this article coming a day after they let a 15-0 lead go to Norths who ended up winning 17-15) it...

Filth it wouldn't be fair for me to comment as I wasn't actually at that game. The comments at training though were that GPS really dropped the bundle and are very very annoyed they let that game go.

Despite some near misses from Premier Grade I think GPS will be pretty happy as a club approaching the halfway point of the season. Majority of grades teams seem to be on track to make a run for the finals (colts need some help) Prems - 6th, possible 5th after upcoming game Reggies - 5th, 1...

Haha is optimism frowned upon in these forums now? Everyone keeps trying to talk their teams down or give excuses as to why teams CAN'T win. How about we start looking at reasons why teams can win and commend those who are giving it a go? Or maybe i'll chalk that up to sour grapes hey Bulldog.

GPS have a great opportunity to build some momentum over the next few weeks. Taking on some lower teams in Easts and Norths to build some confidence (hopefully) before taking on heavy hitters UQ at Yoku to finish the first round. A possible top 4 finish at the end of round one would be a...

Fairly sure Stefano Hunt played Prem Reserves on the weekend against GPS?

GPS v Bros on the weekend. Am I right that there was a red card involved? And GPS finished the game with a man/men in the bin?

Filth do you know exactly how many cards were given in the game? I thought I had it right but am hearing different stories.

Lagi probably hasn't played enough footy/seems a bit injury prone at the moment. He hasn't played a round game yet for GPS I believe.

I think the CEO will be someone more business orientated rather than rugby. Some competence in both is always appreciated though.

Global Warming looks to be doing its part at the moment and giving us a beautiful 30+ degree game day this weekend. Feel for everyone running around, especially after the Easter weekend off. I have heard Brothers are playing games later this weekend, 5.30pm kickoff for Prems, is that correct...

I'm guessing GPS will be getting Waita Setu back this weekend which will be good. Doubt any of the others will be released though as they are 'first string'. I would actually like to see Kerevi play for Souths on the weekend, simply for the benefit of the Reds! I haven't read a whole lot of...

Will be interesting to see whether Lagi Setu (currently playing in the backrow at GPS) ends up overtaking Waita. Lagi was one of the best forwards when he played league for the Broncos in 2010 before commencing his 2-year mormon mission and then had a few short stints with NRL clubs in the last...

You have a valid point BH, however, I still find it concerning that a player who has played Super Rugby as long as Schatz is so ineffective with the ball in hand. It seems like he has upped his workrate in 2016 which is good, but that has also meant increasing his ball carries (I don't have actual...

I just can't get behind a number 8 who consistently gets smashed behind the advantage line. Go back through the archives for the last 5 games Schatz has played and you'll see he always ends up with negative running meters.

I like the run on team. The bench doesn't exactly inspire me though. I get the feeling that in a tight game, if the bench needs to be used there aren't enough impact players to close it out but I understand its a bi product of the cattle the Reds are working with.
