    QLD Premier Rugby 2011

    I'm not quite sure of the pointof your post Matt, but a few points of rebuttal if I may: 1. About five or six games from the end of the season Easts ran on their 44th player. There might have even been a few more 'new players in subsequent games. That kind of injury level would affect even...

    RWC 2011 - Pool D - Fiji, Namibia, Wales, South Africa, Samoa

    South Africa will definitely get through. Just interesting to see who the second team will be although Wales would have to be favoured over the two PI countries.

    What to do with JOC (James O'Connor)?

    I saw an article in the local rag today where Brendan Cannon is suggesting that a few senior wallabies are pretty much over the whole "Brand OÇonnor" carry on and the disrespect he has shown to his teammates, the game etc.. by not turning up for the photoshoot without a good reason. The...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2011

    Well done to Uni on taking out back to back minor premierships. They are in ominous form at the moment putting 50+ points on their opposition in the last three starts. Perhaps the one positive takeaway for the other semi-finalists is that Norths managed to score 22 points against them yesterday...

    Brumbies 2012

    Jesse Mogg is more like 187 cm I'd say. Good on him for getting a gig with the main squad. Rangy sort of player with a decent turn of pace and a fairly big boot.

    QLD Premier Rugby 2011

    So with one game to go Uni should seal the Minor Premiership with a win against Norths and Brothers to wrap up second spot by thumping Wests. Still interesting for the other teams. GPS should beat Souths and will then be sweating on the result of the Easts v. Sunnybank game. Should the Bank lose...

    Aussie Baa Baa's Vs Canada

    The side looks pretty good. Good to see a couple of young blokes in Tapuai and Foley get the call up. Haven't really seen anything of Foley but Taps has certainly made the most of his opportunities this year. Also hope Lucas gets every opportunity off the bench. Should have been the bench...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2011

    Sadly for Easts, if they do make the Top Four (still a big ask) they will be up against it trying to get past the first week of finals. Just too much disruption throughout the season and now Fuller is away with the Force, and he was missed last week. Uni outright favourite I would have to...

    Peter Hynes

    Whether he plays again or not, I hope he gets a good knee out of that marathon surgery. Wonderful player who seems like a very decent bloke off the field

    If Uni doesn't win the premiership then it will be a damn good side that beats them to it. Easts were actually in the game for the best part of the first half but Uni blew them off the park in the last 40 minutes. Rod Davies was superb! Not only showcased his speed, scoring three tries, but he...

    I would say Uni and Brothers are definite. Tigers only need to win one but they are all tough games. GPS to miss maybe?

    Western Force 2012

    It was a particularly strong year for backs in Qld. Jonno Lance, another who has played Super Rugby, had to be content with captaining the Two's that year and went to OZ A, and Stapleton, who was Lance's school and state team mate, now plays for Cronulla. Can't forget Swanepoel who has run...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2011

    Good to hear that Tupou is back. A backrow of Tupou, Bertini and Simcock is pretty handy. Also good to see Brandon back as he will be key to Easts fortunes going forward. I see Fuller played. When does he go on the Force tour? Hope he still has a game or two before he goes. Could be a good...

    Wallabies Number 8 for the RWC

    Agreed. When you look at the time that it's taken Elsom to find form, and the scratchy efforts of a few returning Springboks on the weekend, I reckon palu might be a gamble that misfires if he gets selected.

    Tri Nations Game 4 South Africa v Australia - Saturday 13 August 2011 - 3N2011

    Not quite sure who would've stopped Palu in that one on one situation DPK? Agree with you on the schoolboy technique, and I'm sure LG, or someone, also mentioned that Beale had a similar dominant technique at school. If so, he seems to have fixed things up.

    Tri Nations Game 4 South Africa v Australia - Saturday 13 August 2011 - 3N2011

    I thought he shirked a couple as well. IMO not only has he not fixed his technique and committment to the tackle, seems to me he's not even trying to. Somehow I don't think he will until he gets rid of the obsessive need to be a part of every potential attacking move. Don't get me wrong, I'm...

    With three rounds to go in the regular season it is down to five clubs. Brothers sit at the top with 60 points followed by Easts 59, Uni 58, Sunnybank 51 and GPS 49. Easts have the toughest run in by far with games against Uni, Brothers and Sunnybank. None of the other chances play each...

    Sunila has very light feet and caused Brothers a few headaches yesterday. I'd agree Bloodred, his combination with young Lucas probably shaded the Brothers pair on the day. Funny sort of game at Crosby Park. The first half was quite scrappy with a lot of dropped ball at key moments, and players...
