Traffic can get pretty bad around the Moore Park area and as the game was on just after peak hour, the rain may have added to discourage people from coming. It will be interesting to see how many turn up for the next home game against the Cheetahs which is also on a Friday night. The SFS is 25...

From what Chieka has said in the press, it seems that he has an eye on a few players in club rugby. I couldn't imagine they will be asking for big $$$, probably just happy for the chance. The lure of RWC 2015 would also be a big incentive for many of the players that will hit their prime by...

It is bizarre to have so many players coming off contract at the one time. I would have thought it best to have player contracts expire on a staggered basis so no more than 40% are coming off contract in any one year. Another Tahs HQ stuff up? With the dismal crowd against the Rebels etc, the...

The marketing isn't proactive to say the least, especially when you compare it to the Reds and their neighbours, the Swans. I remember one year (2009) Town Hall Station was plastered with the Jersey 23 promotion in conjunction with HSBC. No matter where you turned on the concourse and you...

The Tahs are notionally the NSW Waratahs. But they are very inner Sydney centric. For better or worse, Southern NSW would probably be Brumbies territory and the rest of NSW is left to fend for itself, bar the sporadic player appearances, eg for their local junior clubs. They did go up to...

If people don't take Grumbles seriously, where does that leave Spiro Zavos? http://www.theroar.com.au/2013/03/04/spiro-a-standing-ovation-for-the-nsw-waratahs/ Which game was he at? At the SFS, there certainly wasn't 11K giving a standing ovation. He must have been counting those who got up...

It's the Platinum and Gold Members that have access to the SFS, not SCG Members.

I wasn't going to miss it due to some rain. In the end, it stopped raining around at least half an hour before kick off. It doesn't augur well for the next game against the Cheetahs which wouldn't be a drawcard team.

Wouldn't be sad if Grumbles is correct about the Tahs CEO.

Bruce, here he is. From SMH: http://www.smh.com.au/rugby-union/union-news/waratahs-boss-tackles-the-tough-questions-20120802-23igd.html

Speaker for the March event on March 11 is Waratahs Rugby CEO, Jason Allen. Register here: http://www.eventbrite.com/event/5569442352/eac2 It will be interesting to see what reaction he gets from the audience. Any chance Bruce Ross will turn up and heckle him?

Thanks for the heads up. They should try an arvo game at Olympic Park if they can get the OK from Fox Sports.

Usually plenty of deals at the end of the season, eg the Canterbury store in Alexandria, NSW had the classic jersey for $50 recently. Not the current season, but same as the one pictured from 2011. Rebel Sport had them for $50 late last year as well.

Love the promotions that Adidas do with NZ rugby. If only they supplied kit to the Wallabies and Tahs.:) The NZ Super Rugby jerseys looks pretty good, except perhaps for the Highlanders away jersey.

Here's the latest from them: After the big dummy spit, it seems they have deleted the Facebook post. Now they are going on about a deal especially for them.Admittedly, it is a good deal for Adult GA into the 6 SFS home games for $75 or 2 games for $25 and you get the membership pack. Hard to...

With the various pre-sales over the last few weeks, there probably weren't that many tickets available for the general public sale. Hopefully, that means there will be plenty of gold in the stands. If you're a member of The Rugby Club in Sydney, they may be able to sort you out with some...

Foley said he will be having a run today (Monday 18/02/2013) to see if he is a chance to get on the plane to Brisbane.

The font is too small for a bus shelter ad. Should have gone with something like a red background and white outline of the Lions logo. Much more eye catching. Say something like "THE LIONS ARE COMING! in large font" No need for the photo which is too dark for the ad. Include some details in...
