Define struggling. Sydney FC average home crowd season-to-date 16,944 - 873 above last season with home games against Melb FC & Melb City to come, not to mention a couple of home semis. This does not include season opener against WSW of 60,880 (better than NSW v CRU GF 2014).

Indeed。Sydney only stretches to Lithgow. Thank you.

1. Shore owned by Sydney diocese. 2. Sydney diocese is low church. 3. Bathurst diocese is low church. 4. Join the dots. Probably cheaper just to find land out there and build a new school - or buy Scots Bathurst.

May end up with a NRL citing/AFL reporting system. Obvious foul play deserves red card but careless/reckless possibly cite and then hand out appropriate suspensions to avoid the 12-13 situation. Yellow cards for professional fouls etc are still fair game. NB Barrington contact looked awful in...

IS, I am guessing this was a rule that only Scarfman policed. It does not seem to have been enforced since his departure some years ago. EDITED For QH's benefit :)

They are effectively excluded from rowing as well. They cannot compete at State or Nationals as an U19 (rowing definition different to other sports). I would be interested if any talented older boys in a year choose the 3 year pathways, play 1st XV as U17/18, and then spend last three terms...

One of my children competed against an U19 pathways student in a sport that allowed it (someone who also coincidentally competed at a National level and was at a school with a statistically improbable number of top athletes). Do you have a link to a site where it states it is restricted to U18...

On the ground level the whole setting has a Mad Max feel about it. Crowd was much larger yesterday - lots of costumes. Aust loss disappointing - some interesting ref decisions. South Africa looking best so far.

Ladies looked very sharp in semi. Stadium is a pop up in middle of desert. Dubai is one flight from pommy land, thank god Australia is two flights.

Am in situ - will provide some sideline observations Friday.

Sorry - poorly drafted - the point was what they were doing during their school days not what they are doing now. Three prominent letters come to mind and they are not HSC.

I could imagine Usain Bolt as a pretty fearsome fast bowler if he had chosen to continue with cricket.

Inducing cognitive dissonance in a pro-inducements supporter with some cold clear thinking is relatively easy. For example, ask them to go back 3 years on this thread to see what the NRL boys were doing then whenever the rationale of a "better" education is introduced into the debate.

Juan, definitely not in the spirit of this thread. Parents are supposed to pretend they have scooped a scholarship and the thread thrives on speculation not fact. Also, you may need to update the shirt and tie in your Avatar. Anyway, looking forward to your match reports next year.

Especially when they are loaded with some good shit for the post-game party. Imagine the rampage that team could get up to after a few hits of ice. (queue mood music)

Not the 7 seat.

Indeed, but the government also supported the push into football to no avail. Hearts and minds.

Agree. Focus on areas like Mt Druitt - big PI, aboriginal, and Sudanese communities.

Ok for some guys in the army to run around but core skills and muscles need to be developed earlier. Chinese parents will not allow their golden child to waste time playing sport. They have been trying to be good at football for many years and are on track again to miss out qualifying for WC.

Two thirds of your post was pretty good. Possibly reflects the majority view of posters here. PS Re Shute Shield attendance - your friends may not have attended a game but I wonder how many follow a club and watch the Saturday arvo game on TV. Will check with my sons, who are in their 20s.
