    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Rugby as a games needs to be advertised and they are missing golden opportunities. How hard would it of been to print either tickets or flyers to give out at local schools allowing children and parents free entry if they register online. They could of also made it so that entry had to be by a...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Ok I have finally worked out how to put the videos on Youtube in a half decent quality. I tried in full HD but it was going to take 55 hours just for 1/2 a game. Unfortunately the program I am using only allows for the video in a 10 minute block. This is the first 10 minutes of the SNW v Hunter...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Wood Rat, I agree with you regarding the Nationals last year and that is why I said Victoria and Sydney North Harbour U17's would be a good match. I have seen the improvement in the ACT over the years and when you think about it Victoria and the ACT are the two teams that remain 'intact' so to...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Fireball, I see Sydney South Harbour U17's beat Northern Inland in Sydney 31-3 Hunter beat Northern Inland at Armidale 45-12 Sydney North West beat Hunter at Eastwood 36-12 On paper SSH need a 26 point improvement to beat Sydney North West and if they did then I would be the first to...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Sorry Shane but I don't follow the U15's as they are in a different age group to my sons so they were at different venues during last years various championships. You can't read anything from the ACT 90-0 score unless you were there. By about 25-0 the opposition generally drop their heads and...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Knock on, when you film and watch hours and hours of video of various championships you get to see teams strengths and weaknesses, and similarly with individual players. I had actually called who I believe will be the Pool A and B winners to another poster before the comp even started. My...

    Continued decline in Sydney Junior Rugby

    Dave, please don't get me wrong. I'm not blaming Bill for the predicament that the ARU are in now, it has been years in the making, and we can't expect him to just turn it around overnight.

    Continued decline in Sydney Junior Rugby

    Dave, Irrespective of who created the idea, it should not be happening. Junior teams are not there to 'fund' the ARU and you can guarantee if it is put in place that the '$200 levy' would remain in place and just increase in time. It's akin to taking money from your child's 'piggy bank'...

    Continued decline in Sydney Junior Rugby

    Interesting isnt it! The fat cats of the ARU underperform so they propose to slap every junior team (not club) with a $200 levy. Meanwhile in AFL, any junior club that has had a player come through to play for the Sydney Swans receives $1000's a year. The player also visits the junior club...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    In the under 17's Western NSW should be congratulated for such a performance against a team that in all probability will win Pool A. However, the Sydney Harbour North v Victoria game should be a very close contest and will ultimately determine who wins the Pool. Sydney North West are my...

    Great to see that someone is actually using the available technology to get the results out. We are a little slow down this way ;).

    Continued decline in Sydney Junior Rugby

    You are correct Oldpig. AFL is certainly not a passing fad and as for targeting communities for the last 5 years, it has been going on much longer than that. My boys were involved in AFL back 11 years ago and only gave up last year because they had so much involvement in Union but during that...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2013

    Welsh rugby was once in a shocking state of affairs and I can recall going to see Wales play NSW at Hombush where they lost 73-3 or something like that. They now have clear pathways to develop their talent and the product of that development is now showing as we recently saw with the number of...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Incorrect! Trials came first, selection of squads second and then the induction meeting. Unless you are talking of some inhouse ARU meeting that others were not a party to because you are implying that I posted something that was contrary to general knowledge, which is incorrect. Read my...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    As I stated in my post, I could not confirm what I was told, which was before the meeting. I wasn't stretching anything as it certainly wasn't my suggestion. I later found out that they would be playing for the Hunter and could of corrected the information but it was way back.
