It’s just people yearning to go back to the good old days. Alas, you can’t turn the clock back.

If only we knew then, what we know now about the importance of investing in grass roots. That was just one of many opportunities squandered by the suits in charge. The problem we have now, is those missed opportunities that have banked up over the past two decades, have put the game here in...

They’ve had a dominant colts side for 5 years, without any discernible benefit for first grade.

Nothing like tuning in with an open mind..... You see what you want to see,I spose. If it was such a farce, why weren’t the guys with current pro contracts,absolutely dominating these muppets?

It’s only a rort if you’re not involved.....

Have they ever chucked a bucket of funding their way? My understanding was local participants incurred a $600 fee to be involved in Oz champs in years gone by.

I’ve seen him play quite a few games at SS level. Played good once v Uni, when there were holes all over the park, when the 3rd grade 10 would have had a picnic. It’s one thing to make a mistake and recruit him, there’s no need to compound the error and play him.

Or the analytical quality of said commentators ....

Literally every tackle would be a penalty in Rugby, a tackler grabs the ball carrier around the throat to gain control,in pretty much every tackle. They have the rules, they just choose not to enforce it. It’s mind boggling.

Oh, OK that makes more sense. I think the non participation is a bigger concern than including the baba’s. My only comment on the baba’s is, if you miss out on state selection, you shouldn’t be eligible for both the baba’s and CS.

Carl are you suggesting that 8 kids who missed GPS selection (they picked 5 teams from a pool of 6) have been selected ahead of those GPS teams and the CAS,ISA,CHS squads? I can’t agree with injured players being parachuted in. A player who’s style didn’t fit either of the 4 GPS coaches, is...

That’s pretty outrageous, given they picked 4 rep teams and a team of reserves originally from a pool of 6 Schools.

Dunno, it makes no sense to me. I’ve seen shadow players come into the 1’s squad, then an early injury and they play the majority of the games as a starter in 1’s despite being ranked 5th in their position. I can only assume going back in time the 1’s were there to win, so starters would play...

100% they picked starting XV for each side before reserves were selected. Next to be selected were reserves for 2nds, and finally reserves for 1sts. As explained to me by 2 different selectors.

Did he? He was clearly offered a lot more cash by the Roosters. I don’t blame him for taking the bird in the hand. Rugby just cannot compete if the Mungo’s are keen on a youngster.

Fuck you Israel Folau......... https://www.smh.com.au/sport/rugby-union/revealed-folau-seeks-3-million-from-donors-for-fight-against-rugby-australia-20190620-p51zm0.html

I think that ship has sailed. Unless RA find another revenue stream, they won’t be able to compete with NH $$$.

No prizes are handed out in June......

It was a choice between ARC or a big fat bonus for JON. It was never a contest.
