A big fijian outside back recently seen playing in black and gold

Alexandria Dukes beat Sydney Grammar Old Boys 31-17 on Saturday, through a very dominant forward pack. The Dukes have some big ball carriers and heavy hitters in their side and completely dominated the smaller SGOB's pack. Given that SGOB's were grand finalists in the Meldrum last year this was...

Yes it's his son I think

Sorry to see Alex Northam not there yesterday. He would be one of the most exciting wingers around with his pace. I note Harry Jones did well yesterday and it is interesting to compare (still take Alex though). One point, and it's a personal one, is that I would like to think that the play of...

Yes Dave Alex did have him a couple of times however you can't deny the contribution he made.

Narracott won Uni the GF last year - player of the game. Very, very quick and talented. I have to agree a bit on the small side though

He is listed in the team and as far as I know he is playing

So after a bit of a break the Dukes return to the field in the Meldrum Cup tomorrow against Sydney Grammar Old Boys at reg bartley oval at Rushcutters Bay. Kick-off is at 3 pm. The Dukes 2nd XV is playing Mosman at Wills Oval with kick-off at 12.30. Good luck to both Dukes teams and lets...

Speaking as someone from the country I'm sorry but your not funny and seem to be the south end of a horse travelling north

This has been said before - the Country team is based at Moore park because most, if not all, the players will already be based in Sydney (or if a Sup player will eb able to locate there). All training and admin will be done out of Moore Park. They willplay their home games at country venues...

Yes that seems like the best and quickest way to get some recognition by the Tahs. However size seems important and the major "skill" they look for in all players, backs and forwards so both will have to put on 10 - 15 kgs even then

I see Harry Jones is playing 1st grade on Saturday. Will he be playing opposite Alex Northam? Hope he is as it would be a really good to compare the two wingers

can someone give some background to the 2 Christians playing for Uni. Both seem like they can score points. I don't recall their names in any schoolboy forum

And I mean all day 2nd v 5th in 4ths, 2v6th in 2nds and 1v2 in 1st. Plus the Colts, which is always a willing contest with both sides truly believing the "Battle of the beaches" call.

Yes thanks Dave. Looks a great day - all day. First game at 9 (4ths) with 1st Colts at 1.15 and 1st grade at 3. Hope my bum is ok after sitting that stand for so long

dave Beat has the program for Saturday been worked out yet - what games are on at manly and what times do they commence? In past years the 1st grade colts played at 1.30 before 1st grade

no 1st grade players were played. The Dukes this year have had a good influx of players with approx. 40 players registered. The boys also enjoyed the day and as always enjoyed a drink after. Hopefully we can play again

The Dukes played Sydney Irish in a Halligan Cup game on Friday at Latham Park and came away with a good 21-0 win. Apparently the win was based on a strong showing by the forwards who pushed the Irish all over the field. This continues a very strong start to the season for the club. We take...

The Halligans game was advertised on the Dukes website last Wednesday so it wasn't a last minute thing. The Dukes were very happy to play and the win continued the strong start to the season for the whole club
