    I didn’t believe him at the time Mauler but Whistle did predict this situation that City now finds itself in right back at the start of the season. This is a forum and he has a right to be critical of City’s performances this year. They haven’t won a game and have rarely been competitive...

    I reckon outside the bottom 3 the other 5 teams are pretty high quality outfits. Waratahs should make the GF. If Aggies or Albury are their opponents a shock result could be in the offing.

    Last year Whistle Griffith had basically a skeleton group training in both grades and the culture at the club was not very good. This year both those things have turned around. The coach is well liked and respected and longer rather than shorter term. We’ve added a 3rd grade. We haven’t had much...

    Maybe the university should step in and work something out to make things more balanced between Reddies and Aggies. The uni is where the majority of funding for both clubs comes from. As far as the 2 town teams are concerned City has appeared to always have been a poor relation of Waratahs...

    Having watched the 2 uni teams this year they seem to be pretty much all students. The Wagga landscape is quite unusual. With one town team struggling to keep opposing teams to under 100 the other one is undefeated.

    I think the Lollies were shattered by the GF loss in 2016 and felt hardly done by as far as infield decisions. They did Ok last year but have yet to regain spirit and momentum as a club. The better new players coming to Wagga will always gravitate to Waratahs and that scenario will probably only...

    Just to clarify Mauler. City beat Aggies in 2nds. What you are suggesting is that if Aggies 1sts played Aggies 2nd grade they would beat them by nigh on a century of points.

    Griffith were in it for 15 mins and then Leeton clicked into another gear Whistle and the fat lady was singing before half time. City are obviously stacking their 2nds Mauler. Where’s all the indignation that was directed at Griffith when they did the same thing last year. I’m not saying it’s OK.

    You got them all Whistle. All one way traffic here at Griffith. Great refereeing by Sam. Bulls struggling a bit. Maybe we’ll do better against them next week.

    Semi Finals Waratahs certain Leeton certain Albury certain Aggies certain Tumut certain Griffith impossible - even if they won all 3 remaining games (unlikely) Blacks would be dependent on other teams being beaten by City and CSU (unlikely). What remains interesting is the order after Waratahs...

    The Reddies tried all day. The game looked like a Colts team playing a 1st grade team. If the Blacks were to win next week it would give them a confidence boost coming into their 2 in a row home games against Leeton and Tumut. I've got a feeling their season depends on what happens at...

    'The Steamers will be much too strong for Aggies who are on holidays and apparently have several players unavailable doe tp Prac. work'. You did get the rest of the round predictions right Whistle. Griffith now in 4th spot. Can they consolidate by beating the Steamers next weekend at Murrayfield.

    I don't know anywhere near as much about the rugby set up as you and Bandar, Mauler. Personally I don't think of rep rugby in the country areas as being a stepping stone to higher levels - but if that happens, great. What about this. We have SIRU K/O at the beginning of the season. Compulsory...

    I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for @Reasoning to comment on this forum again either Sam. I assume they were his thoughts about the situation last weekend at Connolly. I would also assume it was his right to express those thoughts on this forum. It's not his fault there is a lack of match...

    I would like to see them there Whistle but the Blacks would be long odds to make the finals. Having said that Leeton and Tumut would be wise not to take them too lightly when they come over here.

    That just about settles it then doesn't it 1. Waratahs 2. Leeton 3. Tumut 4. Albury 5. Aggies 6. Griffith 7. Reddies 8. City

    Surely Sam this will be the most interesting round of the 2018. City were good last week and get a chance to win a game this year against Reddies. The last semi final spot could be decided between Aggies and Blacks. Albury get the chance to prove they are the real deal against Waratahs. Phantoms...

    Tumut v Leeton next week. Everyone's been waiting for this return bout. Excuse the pun. Boiled Lollies were great today against Blacks. They were in front 20 mins to go.

    I was under the impression Silver Fox that the rest of the competition had conceded this year's trophy to Waratahs. They are a really good team. Waratahs are really enjoyable to watch because they are so well drilled. The fullback would have to be the best player in SIRU. When Blacks got close...

    Close game at Exies. 40 - 29 I think. Take Waratahs no. 15 out and Griffith win. They (Waratahs) are definitely not unbeatable. Far from it.
