DIV 2 Beecroft vs HUNTERS HILL - HH march on FOREST vs Hills - At home in front of the inbreds Forest will be too strong UNSW vs Lindfield - Going with the Home ground advantage for this crunch match MOUNTAINS vs Hac - Think Hac's weakness in lower grades will allow Mountains to bring in some...

This time of year I think clubs with only one or two grades in contention pose a threat to those clubs whom are stretched across every grade as they can focus their player power. Think Saints may be just too strong and tip BOBs out.

Surprised no one knows as unless they've been brought in directly from Fiji they would have had to come from another club. Maybe grade?

The ARU has indicated that money taxed from grassroots is going directly to fund the NRC. Where else do you think the money is coming from? Crowd takings, sponsors, TV rights?

Surely the ARU has heard the message from the grassroots that they are on their knees and not in a financial position to fund the NRC any longer. Junior rugby and suburban clubs are the heartland and have been shielded to a degree from the ARU levy by their associations, but that changes next...
