Leeton has pulled the pin on first grade I hear. That would be the 3rd time in the last 5 seasons that they have withdrawn from a senior mens grade mid season. Which is beginning to form an unfortunate pattern. We now have an 9 team 2nd grade and a 7 team first grade . That is not the makings...

Im not going to differ much from those tips. City will roll Tumut in a WAC need to beat Albury but Albury are one of those sides that just wont go away - and WAC need to win that game with a bonus point to shore up that ladder position. I cant see Reddies beating Tahs but stranger things can...

This is harder than picking a broken nose. From a clubmans view ( and we have done it tough, real tough over the years ) I have played 2 and some times 3 grades in a day for City . And its tough , but we did it to keep the show on the road. And I'm glad we did it , because City is in a far...

My fearless tips for this weekend coming ! I think the Aggies v Tahs game will be very important for both clubs and the clash at Tumut between the bottom two sides will give a massive boost to the winner of that one. Tumut V Leeton - Hard to go past Tumut at home. Leeton numbers mean they are...

Whilst I appreciate the talk up of City and our chances , I feel its premature. Theres a lot of rugby left to be played and a lot of potential to go wrong for us. Injuries , suspensions and life may yet play its part. Granted we have had a good start to 2022 and we have an incredible positive...

Well done to Reddies on the win over Griffith. From what I undertand there was a penalty try involved ? Either way definitely shakes the ladder around ! The other games went as many predicted. I think aggies must be starting to get a bit of form together now - thats 3 wins on the trot now and...

Reddies and Aggies ahve improved a great deal since last season . I perused the Tahs v Griffith game and was a little suprised by the result in all honesty. I expected a lot more from the Blacks but to be fair theyve been dealing with The Rona as well in the last week or so . As city are now...

Tahs forfeit a grade due to Covid this week. I cannot in my time recall Tahs ever having to do that . Strange days indeed !

Theres some pretty interesting games this week - Tahs v Griffith being the stand out . But the other two games probably will have more long term affects than the Tahs match. Tahs have some quality players still in the ranks but dont seem to have the firepower up front that they used to. I think...

Yes looking forward to some footy again after Easter ! My thoughts on the weekend coming ? Albury v Tahs : Good game for the bar tv mob and i think Tahs may just get the points . However i will not shed any tears if Albury rolls them . Tahs by 5 Griffith v Tumut : Griffith really have to...

Time for my 'Kisses of Death' for the week ! Reddies v City - City by 12 . I think this certainly will not be the blow out of a few years running . Krautz is a big in , if named this week. Despite some Rona issues , City should get the choccies. Leeton v Griffith - Giffith by 7 . I'm not sure...

Ok calm the farm people ! First rugby controversy of the season. Sounds like Griffith have dodged a bullet in this game and perhaps Steamers are a tad stronger than what their erstwhile coach has suggested !? No true blow outs in round 1 and some good close games in most grades. From a City...

My tips for the week ? 1sts Tumut V tahs - it may be the kiss of death but i reckon they love a good tahs ambush at Jarrah. Griffith v Albury - I think Albury may be in for a torrid day but to be fair Griffith often take a bit to get going . Comfortable win for the Blacks CSU v Leeton - this...

I'm sorry but this is a subject that is not going to be worth arguing about. Hay need to play rugby , Deni needed to play rugby(non issue now) . How do you make it work otherwise ? Its not perfect , it annoys me too but its what we have so we need to work with it !

I'm in

The withdrawl of Deniliquin Drovers from the 2's comp and the withdrawl of Tumut Womens from the X's comp was sad news over the weekend and also slightly concerning. From a personal view I've always enjoyed the trip to Deni and admire the way they've stuck at it in a town very dominated by...

Good to see the SIRRA boss getting around City & Tahs training on tuesday night. I believe other refs having been getting to other clubs as well? It was a good and very worthwhile chat and he advises referee ranks have increased which is great news for the zone . The less reliance of CTA's the...

Our boys had a good old fashioned hit out with Goulburn Reds on weekend. Quite an epic bus trip home as well I gather ! City Girls are off to Yass this weekend for a trial game . Numbers have been good for them so hopefully that can translate onto the field. Any word on other trial games ?

2022 season is rapidly approaching ! Down to 3 weeks to go now . City has had a hit out against Albury and Melbourne Unicorns and is off to Goulburn this weekend. First grade coach seemed happy with the results from that first trial . Any other club trials out in the zone ? On the subjct of...

Well done to Lachie Ramm on the Bill Castle. Good young fella in a team that did it real tough this year. Question for Sam . Based on your experience , if a team was beaten say, 96-0, would the 3 -2-1 still include a player from the beaten side ?
