Loosing players overseas is frustrating enough, loosing and neglecting our pathway is also frustrating - the are now snapping up young kids. A few Aussies mentioned in this article - and the English team and comp over there does rather well...

I'd prefer MacMahon @ 6 and McCalman @ 8. I'd prefer the first 5 and second 5 to be Hodge and Beale and alter as they did - consistancy build strength and combo's. Hunt to 15 he's played alot there. But in saying that Speight didnt do alot last week and Maybe Hodge adds more value to the team...

Horwitz is no loss to the Tahs. I'm wondering how he will go without the Randwick push?

Gave up reading, and picked this post. Hodge played Aus 20s 10 for 2 years, no it all who no fiddly squat about players history and background piss take the piss....... He has succeeded at 12 / Wing 15 - kid can play. He wasn't a private school sweat heart - he went through public school and...

Nor was i sure why there was a dig at the Shute.

Thats a serious cop out that onlly looks at a pimple (ACT) on the arse of Australia. All rugby comps play a part in the building blocks of making rugby great again - and it is the same old people sledgeing the Shute, is it jelousy I dont know, it is a rugy comp that is now self sufficient and...

A bit like the days of North Harbour / South Harbor / NSW Country - like that.

Would youmind clarifying the above please. SS is on FTA - how. SRU played a HUGE role in enabling that to happen. I believe FTA rating have continued to improve as well.

Thant seems to change from year to year - if i recall NSW teams did alright last year. Even did alright lastweekend.

I'm a good rugby man, that enjoys club ruby. Thats a good questions that I cant answer. I'm not a league fan at all but I enjoyed league back in the Windfield cup days where players played for clubs more than money - most of them worked a 9 - 5 job, they were real people. NRC I have never...

Gee - alot of varying thoughts. Grass roots in my eyes relates to clubs that have a junior rugby union - whether that be a shute shield club, or a subies club. Meaning they engage in the development of junior rugby union. I dont think the top 4 / top 2 club model would work in replacing the...

No for me - I interprate the ARU as the board and the decision makers. The players and the coaching staff were in the right head space on Saturday night - it was great to watch.

Yeah Dru hard one i don't have a solution. Hard for the state team as they don't get to see all the full talent pool given so few games. We should have beaten them, I know why we lost 4 players. Thats like losing 1/3rd of your team. Not sure how many u17 invitation comps there are to make it...

Here is a question - what is best as it leads onto a bigger and broader question. Was involved in a team that recently played in the state champs, a number of teams competed including the state team. 1. Is it a state champs comp if you play against the state team? 2. would it be better if the...

I had heard Lance was playing with the rebels next year? Genia / Lance / Hodge / Meakes - a pretty formidable backline was referenced.

If we kicked goals in game # 2 could we have the Bledisloe. Yeah we can all miss goals - i ask the question to relate to how tight it was. Remove the first 40 minutes of game 1, we win.

This sort of thing has been happening for years, I know a player that Randwick said much the same thing to. Is it illegal. no Is it wrong. no Is it good for our game. no Does it create a broad balanced growth of development. no Is it good for our comp to have a club which dominates all others. no

I was concerned that we couldnt get out of our half in the fisrt half. With only 30% of posession we had good D with our line only being crossed once with a sceptical try. Far better second half, felt a real momentum change when Hodge returned the a kick ball in hand broke the line and gave it...
