H.J. you may be interested to know that Eastwood & West Harbour 3rd colts who have a bye this weekend, will play each other in an unofficial game at Eastwood on Saturday.This will give both teams a run obviously,& also serve to satisfy your suggested idea of making the reserves for the 2nd grade...

^^^^^ #311 I agree with "a point system",but not necessarily that which currently exists. The purpose of a point system I would think , is to provide a more even distribution of good players between all/most of the clubs. The consequences of this will differ according to which club at which you...

Yes,but my point is that what constitutes a "fresh" reserve is unclear,& secondly if a 3rd grade colts player does not have a game when playing Gordon & Penrith for example, does he attract points in the second grade game as a fresh replacement,or is it assumed,fairly,that he would have played...

What can be confusing are the points allocated to "reserves". e.g. for a club which has a bye in 3rd grade colts,there will likely be a large number of players on the bench for the 2nd grade colts fixture.Most of these are likely to get some time in the 2nd grade game.A number of the 2nd grade...

Windon played 5 years with Wests before he went to Norths.

Welcome your explanation of the recent behaviour.

I wonder if that & the two recent episodes from Penrith are related,i.e the ugly behavior by them & their supporters in the final of the Southern Districts 7's tournament, & that seen in the trial between them & Sydney University. Is this an indication of what other teams can expect in this...

The underlying reason they considered playing colts football would have been that they were approached by the club. Their subsequent experience resulted in them deciding to play locally. It's not uncommon.

A number of clubs have the ability to field 4 colts teams this year.

Conflicting results re the first grade game between Randwick & Eastwood according to various posts . Who actually won ?

When taking a punt on the top 6,I don't think that picking this years teams should be judged too much on where they came last year, or where their lower grade teams finished,without looking at the likely first grade lineups available to each. There seems to be a lot of personnel changes to many...

Not a good wrap from his French club,Agen,where his contract was terminated last year after a short stay with them.

Aren't other clubs from the Shute Shield going to be represented in other NRC teams?

Todays trial colts 1: Eastwood 8t def Uni 2t.

I may be wrong, but zero points for locals is not what I have been told.That was the case under the previous system however.

My information is that the colts point scoring system has been rejigged. My interpretation, based on what I have been told,suggests that the most recent system effectively increases the number of points to be allocated to virtually all players , with just about every one in first colts receiving...

"a bullshit attitude", ?? It's not clear if you are referring to me for reporting it,or McKenzie for saying it in the first place. At the risk of making you feel "very surprised" again,I can assure you it was said,irrespective of whether you personally think it is counterproductive. Has it...

That's what he has requested.Whether it happens or not ,I don't know.
