Maybe they could shift the bye weekend (9/7//22) games involving Souths & Easts to Friday night, then they play on the Tuesday night, and then on Saturday that would give three clear days between games. Even play the Saturday game on Sunday.

Are games going ahead - my intel is that Souths v Easts is not going ahead today.

I think Norths v Bond and Souths v Easts are in serious doubt of going ahead. Based solely on the general conditions of Hugh Courtney and Chipsy Wood. The potential for players getting infections is too great to play at these venues.

Lancaster is probably good in wet conditions coming from that part of the world it’s a shame he doesn’t get to show his wet weather attributes this weekend.

I know two continuous posts is social media suicide but here is my top 4 prediction - Uni, GPS. Bros , Wests with Bond to finish in its customary 5th

I think Jonathan Thurston played for Souths-Sunnybank RLFC as a junior. I think most of the Polynesians contingent who have played for Snbk hale from rugby backgrounds. Of more recent times I think there has been a solid stream of Logan Saints people who have migrated to Snbk. The Logan district...

Grealy’s brother was running around in Easts lower grades a couple of years back but I don’t know if he still is. I think they went to school at Downlands.

Funny how he mysteriously chooses Brothers as his club. Great to see that the Cordingley Academy has delivered another player to bump up the playing stocks at Crosby. I’d love to see the number of newly contacted out of state players who happen to lob at Crosby through the Cordingley player...

The score in the Reserve grade trial Easts v Norths was 90-nil - so depth may well be an issue again in 2022 for Norths.

His father wasn’t rushed into the Wallaby #10 by Alan Jones - who played him at #12 on the ‘84 grand slam tour outside Mark Ella. I think it better to be a season too late than a season too early in terms of development. Mind you both Michael Lynagh and Elton Flatley debuted for Queensland as 18...

Conor Vest & Richie Asiata to make run on debuts for Reds tomorrow. Both used QPR to progress to the Reds.

I heard on the weekend that George Francis’ manager had been busy shopping him around looking for a professional contract. At last count he has got “no thanks” from Reds, Waratahs, Rebels, Moana Pasifica, & Tonga (for RWC23). And he was in Canberra about 4 years ago before he came to Brisbane -...

Any trial news?

The Butchery please! Brothers aren’t called the “Filth” for nothing! Mind you it was a nickname earned in the 70s/80s.

Look I appreciate that guys moving clubs is something you just got to cop in this day and age but George has had 3 different clubs in about 10 months.

How is young Lancaster any different from Lynagh or clubs giving Fijians a chance in QPR e.g. Dangunu, Seru Uru? I don’t see any issue in clubs sourcing talent from abroad, particularly if they are going to play for the club fulltime - they could be more beneficial in playing terms than having...

Norths v Wests and Easts v Souths tomorrow

Wests v Easts at Sylvan Rd.

He’s a better hooker now than he was in 2020. Credit to him.

Wests v Easts on 26/3/22 also. I think they play Souths & Norths the next two Saturdays.
