How should SIRU harness this increase in participation and how can we attract and retain players at all levels of the game in this area of the world across the many different formats (7's, Viva, 15's)? I was not a fan of 7's as a player (price of being in the $1.15 club :() but as a rugby man...

You seem very confident in City's fortunes on Saturday Bubba ;) I'm hardly going to tip against the side I coach, the club I'm on the committee for and the club I played for am I ?? o_O As for the ground , fully agree it needs upgrading. But heres the kicker ! We have to charge $7 per person...

On that note, what a great facility Griffith has at their disposal in Exies oval! Well done to the Blacks on a well run and well organised day. Now what odds would you give for something like that facility in Wagga one day ? Maybe even better dressing sheds would be a start ! Tips? 1's...

#Justicefor3ply is my personal favourite ....... Tips for weekend? 1's Major Tumut by a whisker v Leeton 1's Minor City for the win over Aggies 2's Major Tahs by 3 (this will be a cracking game I think - Griffith can do it though!!) 2's Minor Tumut by 12 over Aggies Womens Major City by 10...

Whats sports tab paying on that selection ? Might get a multi on! On a serious note , any timings out on Saturday yet ?

City will miss James Newnian, their English prop and need to look at how they can fill the void here If there is any one thing that annoys a Welshman its being called English! Tahs by 17+ City by 12+ Blacks by 30+ Tumut by 3 Should be a wet old weekend and that may affect a few scorelines...

Seeing I only said they'd be 7 points in it last week (ref Tahs v Tumut) , I'll have to be very careful in regards tips ! Tumut (by lots hopefully - biased City man speaking there!) City (as above) Aggies by at least 25 Tahs by 7 (that hurt tipping tahs :() Once again some life and death...

On another note , City will be hosting a monster day of Rugby at Connolly tomorrow. Two very big games with direct implications on the finals make up this season. City needs to win and so does Griffith. A loss sees either side relying on other results to make the 5 ! Across on field 2 Aggies...

Willy, the chances of me uttering anything audible in favour of Tahs are very very very low mate haha Across the park this is a very interesting game. Up front Bulls are quite strong, and have a ridiculous amount of pace out wide. Given that your boys haven't dropped one and Bulls have only...

Little column A and a little column B on that Willy M ! Tumut played well and certainly don't let you back into a game once they have control of it. Well organised and structured in attack but its the Bulls defence which gets them over the line. Aggressive and fast off the line ! This is a...

Seth is having a year off due to some ongoing concussion issues. He is still very much involved with City through the Womens 7's program and is a valued part of the club - both as a coach and socially! He has also been doing some one on one skills with players as well as his ongoing role as SIRU...

Maybe they seriously need to think of a merger? Maybe with City? Reddies are having a tough patch. Nothing more. All clubs go through it and it isn't that long ago that Leeton were regular whipping boys and they are top 3 now. I think the chances of a City - Reddies merger are somewhat slimmer...

After talking to few people in the loop it seems that the Friday night junior comp is running from the 19th of Feb till the 2nd of April. Given that the SIRU senior comp starts on the 9th this seems a little odd in my eyes. The biggest concern seems to be sunday rugby for juniors in Wagga has...

Not sure if this is the right forum but why is Wagga Junior rugby starting in mid February ??? Surely junior cricket and other sports will impact on this ? And on jubilee ? I'm no expert on the subject but surely this is a retrograde step for the sport ?

Been a bit quiet on here! I'm hoping there is a bit more of a media push this week in regards the Brumbies v Tahs game this weekend . I have seen a few newspaper articles so far and have even heard it mentioned on AM radio this morning. But I suspect the general public isn't that aware of the...

There has been a fair about of wrenching of guts (its ok YMS - my guts are still safe :) ) and definitely has been some hard yards going in. Pre season has been demanding but there has been some big smiles on dials and that at the end of the day is what its about ! Players enjoying themselves...

Just to shed a bit of light on the whole Farrell Moata thing . Neither myself or any of the other coaching staff have spoken to him . So put that one to bed please. And from what I've heard we are unlikely to as well . Second we haven't been 'spending' up , we've recruited definitely but...

It has been a busy one ! @yourmatesam ! 2016 will be a cracking season and possibly the tightest comp in a long time seems to be the general consensus. Who knows what else can happen in the pre season !! Just as a note for those interested, Jimmy Blanchard played for City (15 first grade...

Charles Callaghan and Jesse Uhr have both played 2nd grade for City this year (as have 3 other of last years 17's) and Jonno is playing 17's for City at the moment. Charles has also had a run in 1sts against Young the other week for us as a matter of interest.

Looked like wagga city also had a former shute shield 1st grader/ex-aussie schoolboy/former brumbies academy player watching on from the sidelines. Can anyone at city confirm whether he'll be playing?? I'm pretty certain he's had a run in 3's this year and has been helping out in other areas...
