He was around and spent at least 3 or more games in second grade so no excuse there.

Will do well in a professional environment in my opinion hopefully in a few seasons will be hardened and certainly Super Rugby ready. Has been in between 1st and 2nd grade this season at Sydney University.

Going to be good fun for Gordon's 4th graders having Kevin Locke playing tomorrow!

What is Alofa Alofa's story just decided to have a run with Randwick with the aim of getting a contract? The Rebels have him on some kind of short term deal?

ALL is not well inside the Rebels stockade. There’s been talk this week that Melbourne players have grown so dispirited under the harsh regime of coach Tony McGahan that a meeting with a senior Rebels official was held recently to air their grievances. McGahan is the hardest of taskmasters, and...

THE Rebels’ capacity to recruit quality players hasn’t nosedived, however. Quade Cooper remains a decent chance to end up in Melbourne and with every province interested, the Rebels won the race to sign NSW and Australian under 20s fullback Jack Maddocks. And Australian Sevens star Pama Fou has...

Having rep players play is the strength of this competition. If they are registered for the last two seasons as I think the competition rules were I don't have a problem. If you produce them or have supported them you should get to play them.

Clunies - Ross had a run in 3rd grade earlier in the year I believe.

It's not even worth talking to you TWAS. Was there anything ever mentioned about Shute Shield? Moving on. -------------------------------------------------- I can see the strategy but I would think in most instances if they become long term Wallabies they play where they want which is...

Jeez I can just see a few of these young blokes coming back home to NSW some time in the next few years. All well and good trying to sign the youngest players NSW has to offer but would think it's not the smartest strategy long term in the fact the club might struggle while they grow or if...

Sabotage is the wrong word Shute Shield clubs provide the financial support to these NSW sides that would hardly be called sabotaging. I would say you are 'uninformed' or 'ignorant'.

Anyway I hope the NRC succeeds but you blokes need to be realistic that a player is not going to move from his club when his club probably supports him more than the NRC franchise pays him which can be about 2 k to play for 8 - 11 weeks as well as having to bare some relocation expenses. This...

Players do seem to naturally align with city clubs do to facilities and location anyway so I would say they are more than likely to fill that squad with ample amounts of country players.

Another set of poor examples of someone who clearly just wants an opinion without having facts. Sam Talakai was heavily courted by the Reds and asked to come up for the NRC (he got the contract). Chubb was trialled for a contract at the Rebels. Harry Jones is really the only front liner...

Prediction for a club championship ladder HJ? Gordon haven't finished in single figures since 2010 I think it is so hopefully some improvement there. Warringah don't get to play Penrith but Norths, Wests, Souths, Easts and Manly do. Manly don't seem to have a big gun to come up against so...

Eventually you would like to think as people have mentioned the players would move to clubs that they are more chance of making NRC teams if they are struggling to make the current catchment they are in. Unfortunately with the NRC so poor cash wise it's simply not going to happen as people who...

Sev Domoni Sam's son. A long way from being a professional rugby player in Australia in my opinion.

Whilst I am agreeing that it is not that serious at 0.06 something clearly happens with Maliepo's arm and obviously this is what the touch judge noticed. Sometimes different angles are required to see the full extent. Similar incidents happen though when you see it on camera that it looks a...

I don't think disgrace is an appropriate word poorly managed might be a better way to describe the issue that is apparent. Manly are lucky they have a functioning grade system as well as a balance sheet that allows appropriate expenditure on fixing the problem otherwise they could well be...
