    Southern Inland Rugby 2015

    He is the "Devil's advocates view" for Hardens inclusion. In SIRU 3's Hardens round trip to Hay is approx 850kms. In SIRU 2's the round trip to Deni is approx 900kms. In Monaro 2nd Div round trip to Jindabyne is approx 650 Kim's. These are all just numbers but I do recall a club east of Wagga...

    Yep I as I stated ,I have the same opinion to any drug that is used inappropriately regardless of its legal status.

    2015 ARU 7s Age Championships and Commonwealth Youth Games

    Yep, you are right on the money HJ as the Friday is for the travelers to get there and to acclimatize to that Northern Beaches air. As I am just an old "shearer fella" I will have to rely on my mate to send you updates as I don't possess one of those "smart phone" thingies.

    Karmichael Hunt charged with cocaine supply.

    This is my take on drugs regardless of what sport/activity that you may undertake as a professional, in recreation or the lifestyle you live. I have been working in a corrections facility for the last 2 years and if anyone has any doubt about what drugs can/will do,regardless of how they are...

    2015 ARU 7s Age Championships and Commonwealth Youth Games

    The only prediction is it will be great. I'm going to watch my daughter with another mate who's daughter is playing too. So we will have a great 2 days sitting there in our camping chairs watching all the kids play just like the both of us NEVER EVER could.

    Southern Inland Rugby 2015

    Your idea has merit & With my pragmatists hat on I would say you're just about right on the money, but, this zones' greatest problem is its predictable unpredictability. So far as player bases are concerned the only "almost certainties" are Tahs CSU & Aggies will have 3 grades that won't forfeit...

    Southern Inland Rugby 2015

    Skellern was not the coach for 10 uninterrupted years. You may find that L Walker D Walker M Medway M Stewart were all coaches in the years from when P Milner & R Skellern first coached Tahs in 2001 till his last year in 2012.

    Southern Inland Rugby 2015

    @ maulalltheway I know a fella who played with them for 22 seasons and he will tell you that for plenty of those seasons the coach wasn't named until Feb/ March and yet they still managed to be playing when most Septembers came around. With my limited experience I would have thought that it is...

    ARU fee structure change for 2015

    Thanks for the all the great info you fellas have been pumping out. It is confirming my resolve that the ARU really don't have a clue of how the game really exists and operates. I am more than aware of liabilities and changes to business structures and shifting market needs as I have recently...

    Southern Inland Rugby 2015

    You are correct @independant on your general observation ,but, you are not going to get a completely independent management/coach system. The only time I have ever seen this was when Matt Kay who was the head of coaching & development for ACT Sthn NSW stepped in to coach the SIRU team that...

    What position did/do you play?

    Always played up front & not because I had to. I played there because I wanted too. Found rugby in 3rd form when dad sent me to a rugby school & a coach who was a Wallaby # 3 , 7 years previously ,thought I was a likely suspect for it and he was right. Have played every year since. Prefer to...

    Southern Inland Rugby 2015

    Sometimes the more a club strives for credibility, be it by capturing the right coach or the right player group to compete stronger or the desired social standing, then the more they will polarize what currently exists within the group. It happens within all clubs. Some clubs just know how to...

    Southern Inland Rugby 2015

    @rugbyfollower. The question of improvements to CRP relates to the fact that the land and facilities belong to WWCC not SIRU and subsequently ground usage is under the control of the WWCC. There was discussions held with a very well known "sporting club" about 8 to 10 years back but they shied...

    Southern Inland Rugby 2015

    You're pretty much on the money there "independent". What I have often seen is that the need for personal self promotion is what can often cause a need for a media presence. There is and has never been anyone on the SIRU or old Riverina boards that I know of since the early 80's who has had any...

    Wallaby Captaincy

    Personally I think you're right on the money, but, the current coach loves TPN and a fit TPN will/may stymie Moore's playing time. The current style of replacement patterns that seem to be almost set to time makes it very hard to pick a captain now from the tight 5 as in most games the front 3...

    NRC Rd 3 UC Vikings v Qld Country - Sat 6th September

    Good game by UC Vikings. Plenty of ball movement. Some great tackling all over the park. I would like to see a different #9 get a go. From where I watched Coleman is one of the most elusive runners and defended better than well in the hardest channel to defend in ,and ,how he picked himself up...

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    I suppose after this competition finishes the appropriate people will do the sums and weigh up how successful it was and it will be interesting to see their opinions. I personally think it will take some time to convert sponsors ,spectators & naysayers. I am just happy to see players going...

    NRC Expansion

    I was only stating what had taken place , it was not to be taken as an insult as I stated. Over the years the old Riverina played SA at Renmark ,Hay & Wagga with wins sometimes and losses at others just as we played games against Vic in Wagga Albury & Melbourne with mixed results and against WA...

    NRC Expansion

    Just as a side note. On the 7th of July this year South Aust played in a round robin tournament against Southern Inland (old SthWest & Riverina zones)Monaro & Far Sth Coast.The comp was won by Sthn Inland. The score between Sthn Inland & Sth Aust was Sthn Inland 46 to STh Aust 26. Without...

    Southern Inland Rugby 2014

    It would be very difficult for NSW Country players to play at CSU Wagga as all clubs in SIRU are affiliated to ACT Southern NSW Rugby Union.This means that all players are affiliated to ACT Southern NSW Rugby Union. For those players who wish to play in a NSW affiliated representative team they...
