    Sydney Colts - 2017

    Clearly there is a huge gap in Australian rugby when r The leap in conversation from club rugby is world championships. A huge shame there is no NRC development squad comp that could involve the norths current u20 team. Or even a discussion on the Aus <20 2017 comp between the stAtes that...

    Sydney Colts - 2017

    You have watched northern all year and can't name someone, if they are that obscure to Simone familiar with the team, how would you expect casual observers, no matter how knowledgeable to see them

    Sydney Colts - 2017

    1996 born northern playing cohort were quite strong if I remember correctly. A group of Mosman lads for northern and a group of chatswood lads for Gordon were the strongest teams and well represented at higher levels. Not so much the case for -1997 born northern teams. 1997 will be next year's...

    Sydney Colts - 2017

    Check with the North's coach, it is highly likely the selectors gave him a call and asked something like "is there anyone we should be looking at for inclusion in this up coming trial?" Or just throw a name or two out there for us Or maybe they're that good they don't need to trial and will be...

    Waratah Shield 2016

    How is the cup going? that competition is taking the game to those schools more casually engaged in heaven's game has that disappeared as well? finding the format that would be enticing to schools regularly engaged in rugby has proven difficult as some of the significant associations have been...

    Selection politics and bias, Gold Squads unfairness etc.

    selection of coaches must be difficult or limited applicants not being sure if the head or tail wags the dog maybe both should be removed where opportunity permits or maybe if the ARU has any interest in schoolboy rugby invest in coaches not on the payroll of any of the associations

    ISA Rugby 2016

    Please remind me of the Law My understanding is if the try has been awarded and an offence (foul play) occurs after that, the try still stands. As does the opportunity to convert the try. The game is re-started at half way, with a penalty to the team that would otherwise have been kicking off'...

    Demise of the Waratah Shield?

    sad But we could see it coming as alluded to in 2016 ISA Waratah Shield and inner ear infections. The Shield was a knock out competition. It should only be supplementary to other comprehensive development programs. No school or club is going to gear up for a season that may last just one week...

    School sporting scholarships/recruitment

    From what I have been told St Augustine's move to the ruffian's game was part of a conscious and holistic cultural shift for the school. It would seem the value has been a little lost on disciples either of the Gentleman's games. From what I have seen it has been 4-5 years since they were the...
