See you there, Lee. I think this will be a cracker. A bit disappointed that Palmer and Ulugia aren't playing though. When Uni play SD, the real game is in the front row.

My apologies. However, I suppose the question remains: Would he have gone as far as he has if he had stayed there? Uni do attract a lot of good players, but they usually make them better players, and that's good for rugby.

They're not playing 2s, they're fresh. Mumm, Dennis and Phipps have been released from Wallaby Camp to get some game time and Charles is battling it out with Benny Roberts for the 1st grade hooking spot. Both have solid claims although with styles that are poles apart. All of them came through...

Not a bad reserves bench for Uni this weekend. Mumm, Dennis, Phipps, Charles. With the way Norths have been going, this should be a cracker of a game.

Big Barry played Aus schools in 06. Dan Palmer and Paddy Ryan were also props in that team. And re Coridas, it was my understanding that players contracted to Qld had to play their club footy up there (Weeks and McDuling spring to mind), so maybe they've let him go. I think he had an academy...

As my year 5 teacher wrote on my school report: " it's a shame to see such cynicism in one so young".

When Robbie Deans watched the finals of the Shute Shield 2 years ago, he made the comment that he thought that the finals of Shute Shield was equivalent to ITM cup. He'd have a fair idea.

hmmm. He'll have to learn to tackle and to take a high ball under pressure.

C'mon Lee. No mention of the sacred turf at Hunter's Hill?

Can't let that go unchallenged. Paddy went to Ireland for a gap year straight out of school and came back to Uni colts overweight and unfit with not much recent footy behind him. He played a year of colts and then went into grade. He had to prove himself worthy of a spot in the elite development...

Vicks is out, Lee. Pulled up sore after extended wallaby squad training. Tom Heslop takes his place. He's another one worth watching.

15 July.

While I don't disagree with what you say, FP, it is not true that KB (Kurtley Beale) played fullback at school. He was always a 10, although he often "did a Quade" and went to fullback in defence. This was mainly to take advantage of his counter attack rather than hide his weak defence. But he always had 10 on...

According to the Wiki he's contracted to the tahs for 2012, so he'll still be around next year. I think he's about 25 or 26, and I agree that he's an excellent prospect and will step up to Super Rugby standard.

3. Dennis 2. Mumm 1. Carter

yep, that's the brother. And he can use Aldy King as a benchmark. No one has bested him in the first round.

The contest betweem Dewet Roos for City and Mick Snowden for Country was an absolute cracker in the first half with honours shared. Roos probably got on top in the second half when the City pack started to assert some dominance. He looked strong and quick and threatened around the fringes from...

They got out today before Sydney airport closed.

TPN definitely gone. Having an arthroscopy on what used to be his good knee. Probable meniscal tear.
