Part of me says 'sucked in' to the English Clubs as they were one of many countries pillaging our talent over the years. The other part is worried - this is a huge step back in the global game. How could the owners of these clubs possibly think they could keep going with such massive debts and...

I live near the legend that is Jim Webster- still loves his club rugby when we chat. those blokes who were around the rugby scene in the 70s and 80s have some good stories. Life seemed a lot simpler back then.

Yeah thats a big loss. the old school proper rugby journos are slowly disappearing. Anyone know what happened? Seemed way too young..

Actually grew up playing Warringah club rugby. Caused grief at the Rats when he moved to Uni - They gave him a Uni residential college scholarship from memory. To be fair I saw him a few times running around at Uni.

how much are players getting paid? I know the second grade coach who recently quit wasnt even getting petrol money to drive to newy and back twice a week...

I agree re Swinton. I'm sure he's a good bloke and all that, but he has let his team and fans down time and time again. As a Tahs supporter I honestly don't want to see him in the team knowing that we're likely to see another yellow/red card / citing / penalty at a key time. I think maybe some...

Not that it makes much difference but 16Bs were 38 - 5. You may have read in the SMH about the recent year 10 fight at Shore. Well one of the repurcussions was that 20 year 10 boys were put on Saturday detention last weekend - pretty much all of who played rugby in the 16s. We lost players...

yeah I must say I'll always try and watch a Rebels game. You know it will be fun to watch and sometimes bizarre!

a few of the Augs 16bs sounding confident as they beat Brook in a previous game. I gave counsel that such pre-game bluster best be contained....

HeavyD - Do Newport have 2 x U18 teams this season? A powerhouse club that develops players. Any particular schools they come from?

Like a giant vampire squid - the mungos just can't keep away. I was worried without decent $, the mungos will treat women's supe as a development program.

Spoke with Sam's parents on the weekend - think they said he's 34 now. time flies....

Curious about latu. Not mentioned anywhere. He hasn't got in trouble again has he?

You make it sound like NRL is some game that has an lure that means once someone plays it - they can't help themselves but switch. More money is coming into the women's game.

Sorry if already mentioned here - Shore 16As beat Joeys 16As. not sure of score.

jeesus - watched that a few times - from my angle it was planned and he showed no remorse or attempt to help him. Idiot. should be in jail. I hope the ref gets back on the whistle.

I'm reading he actually ran over the ref?? anyone got footage? sounds crazy and hope the ref is ok.

can someone post without paywall? ( Geerob article)

Agree yes that is very well done. Simplifies what we are being asked to agree on, and calls out the things we ( well most ) don't want. i.e more bureaucracy, costs, layers etc.

I have been wanting to have a rant about that as well. drives me nuts
