The one player off in every grade !! Uncontested shouldn't be allowed in finals

No potential for serious injury if there is no pushing in the scrum

Uncontested scrums - let's give everybody the benefit of the doubt, and assume that a coach would never "use and abuse" the rule, and call uncontested scrums to gain and advantage. But it does happen. Call uncontested and your scrum stops going backwards at a rate of knots. Call uncontested...

Ruby Rugby - your reply is different than was provided by a SD official (in the stands on the day), but that's not surprising considering that I am receiving feedback from supporters of two competing teams (and both probably looking through rose coloured glasses):). Your summation is close to...

So the season is over for players and parents of every club except Randwick and Uni, and there have been a few posts of late sounding a little green with envy (and logic). Randwick and Uni deserve to be in the Grand Final. They played the best rugby in the semi-finals across all 3 grades...

I heard on the grapevine that the U/18 Grand Final at Foreshaw on Saturday ended with a fight, yellow card, red card, reversal of a penalty (that saw SD kicking the ball out to win), and worst of all, a WH player man-handling the referee. So what is true , exaggerated, or false?? Sad way to end...

OK, so Uni are deducted 5 points for each of the 3 games. Unlucky, but rules are rules. Question is - whey aren't the 3 results nullified and each team (Warringah, Gordon and Southern Districts) credited with a 28-0 victory (i.e. 5 points to them) ?? Uni are penalised, but why aren't the...

Here's a prediction for the first week of the finals Gordon versus Norths in all 3 grades with 3rd versus 4th.

3rd Grade Colts How many reserves are you permitted (to run on) ?? Syd Uni vs Gordon a couple of weeks ago. Uni ran on "what seemed like 100s" Their team sheet shows 10 reserves 1. O'Connor, Billy-Jacob 2. Docking, Samuel 3. Reserve Brown, Francis 4. Willson, Thomas J 5. Blair...

The U/18 was a fantastic initiative, and was well supported by a number of clubs that should be congratulated - Southern Districts, West Harbour, Parramatta, and Gordon. There were other clubs that participated but for reasons unknown they withdrew at different times during the season (Sydney...

The SBHS "manager" ran on to the field and was there for 10-15 seconds before the Pius coach "crossed the line". He was definitely on the field as well but NOT confrontational or out of line. He appeared to be speaking to his players and calming things down, but really should have let that to...

Regards the Pius v Shore game. Solid hit out for both teams. Interesting that Pius played the starting 15 the entire game except for a late injury change, and Shore had 6 reserves and made 12-15 substitutions. Agree that Pius #1 was solid. Thought that the #9 played well also - gritty little...

Sorry I need to correct the teams I agree wholeheartedly with Whale berry regards the "involvement" and "lack of involvement" of Sydney Boys High coach staff and schooling staff in the Pius 2XV game versus SBHS 2st XV. "Involvement" - The SBHS coach or manager that ran on to the field was...

I agree wholeheartedly with Whale berry regards the "involvement" and "lack of involvement" of Sydney Boys High coach staff and schooling staff in the Pius 2XV game versus SBHS 1st XV. "Involvement" - The SBHS coach or manager that ran on to the field was screaming and threatening in his...

SO there's a squad of 38 players (15 + 15 + 8 reserves) Is there a shadow group named as well?? Only reason I ask is because I believe there might be two Pius players (not 1 as mentioned above). However this might be schoolyard rumours !

And Pfft to "I like to watch". Strapping - just remember that prevention is far, far better than cure!! Who are parents and spectators to say who should and shouldn't have strapping. Especially when they're not your kids, and generally you have NFI what injuries they are or aren't carrying. If...

Pius have another trial game next week, and start the following week. Too many trial games I reckon !! And yes 20 interchanges seems reasonable for a trial game. My point is that Pius have has less than 10 interchanges in 4 trial games. great for the starting 15, but zero (I repeat - zero) value...
