    BTW, Wicks have announced Morgan Turinui will be Club Attack Coach and Jock Giacheri will be Club Set Piece Coach. Nick Ryan has signed on for another 2 years as Director of Rugby and Travis Partridge as Director of Colts. But no mention of the 1st grade coach o_O

    Shute Shield 2016

    I suggest the movement of players between clubs has been flogged to death on this forum over the last few years. The player points system was supposed to solve the "problem" but clearly hasn't worked due to a lack of will on the part of the SRU and the clubs themselves IMO. As my 4 year old...

    I had my tongue in my cheek, Dave. As I've said before, if you're a good player, don't conceded penalties (especially for foul play), and are respectful of the referees -- all of which apply to Horwitz -- it must enhance your chances of winning an award voted on by the refs. However, having...

    Wow, doesn't say much for all those Catchpole Medal winners over the years if you guys reckon Horwitz is not even in the top 5 number 10's in the SS (and he missed about 5-6 games last year) :confused:

    According to Twitter, Shannon is currently on holidays with his family in Tassie so maybe no announcement until he returns -- assuming it's true.

    From the Wicks website: "Sincere good wishes to all at the NSW Waratahs for the 2016 season especially to our Galloping Green representatives. Congratulations to the following players contracted for the season ahead:- Kurtley Beale, Matt Carraro, Andrew Deegan, Ned Hanigan, David Horwitz and...

    Shute Shield 2016

    Not sure the Wicks have any involvement in the licenced club so I don't see how they'll make any money from it. From what I understand, the licenced club was in debt to the rugby club foundation so closing it down and selling the premises should have resulted in the repayment of that debt which...

    Shute Shield 2016

    This is the announcement on Wicks Facebook: "THE Old Randwick Rugby Union Club is Re-OPENING TODAY 31 December from Lunchtime, to be known as the CLUB HOUSE. ALL WELCOME.....please spread the word if you want anyone to know about it....the Re-Union is on!" Not sure whether this means there...

    I'd like to see him given the chance. He's been a dominant player in the SS when fit.

    Is Donlan still at Manly? If so, they now have 2 ex-Rats half backs.

    Shute Shield 2016

    Get your facts straight Knuckles -- I was there that day and there were at least 6 Wicks supporters ;) It is a long trek out to Penrith and given the likely lopsided contests (especially in the lower grades) I wonder what size crowds the other teams are able to boast when they visit? How many...

    Really hope you're right about the return to 22 rounds. The current setup is too unfair.

    Good luck to all the GF teams across the grades and colts. I agree with Dave -- let's hope rugby is the winner. And we don't have any interference from the weather man.

    Shute Shield 2015

    Looking through the list of Cathpole Medal winners provided by HJ, it looks to me as though it's never been won by a winger, only twice by a centre, and only once each by a prop and a hooker -- although there are a few players I couldn't place. Backrowers, 9s and 10s dominate the winners. Not...

    Shute Shield 2015

    Like most SS watchers I see one team and its players every week (ie Randwick) and the other teams once or twice a year live and a few other times on TV where the commentators frequently misidentify the players so it's hard to compare the weekly performance of players in my team with others. I...
