Well here we are ! The business end is here . Connolly 1 is looking magnificent ( wish i could say the same for 3 and the alleged 4) and the forecast is for proper winter conditions. Massive day of Rugby ! 1's City v Tahs - I'm very wary of this game , they are after all the only side that has...

Last round ! 2 of the 3 games dont have real bearing on next week. But that 3rd game is going to be crucial for Aggies and Albury . Reddies v Tahs - It could be a massacre or it could be a dog fight to the bitter end. I'm thinking dog fight myself . Reddies will want to make a show of it I...

I'd imagine Aggies would be ruing the 5 points deducted for an unregsitered player against Tahs. Its made thier life a lot harder than was necessary thats for sure. Albury would not even have a sniff of semi final football other wise ! I think aggies could be right up against it with this game...

Some intriguing games from last weekend and a massive game coming up for a few teams ! So Albury v WAC takes on some serious dimensions now . Its simple - whoever wins plays semi final footy. Mathematically ( which is code for they cant make it but its nice to spin a positive) Tumut can make it...

City over Griffith . Griffith seem keen to host a GF but I'm certain City will be out to deny that. City 13 + Tumut to give Reddies a thumping up at Jarrah . 13 + All the chat is about Griffith at the moment - remember City has only lost one game and wont be going into this game lightly . We...

I think $1.70 is a fair price. I'd get on for that !

38-7 all round it seems. Aggies life is going to be a touch harder now , with a bye this week, Griffith the following and a trip to Albury to finish the regular season . They'd be relying on a few things going according to plan the next few weeks anyway. Tumut need a win against Reddies and a...

Sorry been out of action last few weeks with actually having to do what pays the bills. Bravo to Reddies for their efforts last week. Takes real club spirit to do that old fashioned 3 grades in a day thing ! A few stabs in the dark for the weekend : Albury v City ; The loss last week has been...

The Bye sure does play a lot . They must run up against 9 teams a week most weeks ! Its not working but we have to make the most of it now - we have no choice . I cannot recall seeing so many forfeits in a season. Usually the odd 3's game but holey moley , 1's games , 2's games the whole...

Bubbas weekly stabs ! Griffith v Tahs - judging by the article in the DA , Tahs are running on bare numbers with at least 4 out this week. I think Griffith will be snorting and stamping , possibly baying for blood . I'll take the blacks this week . 13 plus Tumut v Albury - now this is an...

Tahs are off to Griffith this week, which usually seems to thin numbers out in most clubs. They don't have the option / luxury of forfeiting 3's this week as they have already done so twice. I would hope that the SIRU board would be reminding all clubs ( especially in the light of Leetons 1st...

Its not ideal having 3 first grade sides , 3 womens sides and 3 3rd's sitting out each week is it ? I think we are all on the same page that this structure cannot continue.

What is the answer ? I'm not sure Tumut would be all that keen on going down a grade so to speak . I'd love to see clubs like Temora back in the SIRU fold as such. The key is having meaningful rugby played . Teams like Hay need decent footy but dont have the population to support a 'premier'...

Well done to Tumut on the win against Aggies. Whilst I dont think it will end Aggies season at all, it isnt going to make it easier for them . Griffith may be in for a good old fashioned ambush at Jarrah this weekend. The other game, City V Reddies, saw it shortened by 20 minutes due to injury...

Time for our tips of the week. With 2 games to pick from its hard work ! I might throw some 2's games in the mix as well ! Aggies v Tumut - this might be a lot closer than what meets the eye . Aggies have some key players out and that may play a part . I think Tumut will make them work real...

And there you have it. The grass is not greener in Central West and for a club like Leeton , the trip to West Wyalong will be their shortest. And after that it get into the equivalent of Leeton to Tumut etc I think we have to look at a 'Premier' and maybe a 'Club' type set up. Premier being...

I'm not sure what the right answer is but we ( as in SIRU zone) are going to have to have some sort of restructure going forward. I dont know what that is yet , but i do know we cant keep going down the path that we are on now. The comp cant end up some Wagga/Griffith/Albury sort of a thing...

Certainly not having a go at Blacks numbers on the road , what I'm more interested is in results on the road. The failure to beat Reddies and a weakened Tahs in Wagga is the point of my statement. To be a top 2 side you have to make sure of those games and so far Griffith has not really shown...

Round 10 . 6 First grade games to go . 8 2nd Grade games and 6 Womens. Albury v Griffith - I'm going an upset here. I think Albury might squeeze past them . I'm hearing they've got some pasifika reinforcement and given Griffith hasnt travelled all that well I reckon Steamers are a red hot...

Now Ironically we would have had 4 first grade games this weekend as Hay ( which the comp is geared around ) has the bye in 2's. With Leetons withdrawl , we will have 3 first grade games this weekend . After that its 3 teams off and 4 playing. I suspect a re do of the draw was going to be a...
