Must have been pre 1970s. I don't remember those days :lmao:

I'll be there.

Yeah, catchy, I think Joeys will suffer a few consequences from changing the boarder/day boy mix. It was a change that had to be made for the survival of the school and we'll just have to wear it. History will tell if we are going through a bad patch, which happens from time to time, or whether...

They'll be getting some good forwards coming back down, but overall Uni is still struggling. A lot of the S14 players are having the week off (Hangers, TC, Hux, Mumm, Burgo) and there a 7 or 8 very good players either in the 7s or the Aus U/20s. So what is a 2nds team this week will be closer to...

Played all my schoolboy footy at lock. When I left I went down to Sydney Uni Colts training and was hanging around the first week or so when Declan Curran wanders over. He was playing 3rd grade at Uni that year (interestingly JON was capt coach and playing 5/8) as he had just had a knee recon...

Are you taking the piss? They have been terrible lately and I think came 7th in this year's HOR. A few years ago (02 - 06) when Michael Morgan was a coach there they had some good crews and were a very close second to Shore every year and were very unlucky not to win in 05, the year they won the...

Uni have got some good forwards back in Dennis, McCutcheon, McCalman, Tilse (although Tilse v Jerry Yanuyanu is pretty even) and Charles, but they have been struggling in the backs. I was hoping either Hangers or Hux would play 5/8 this week as they have been lacking a hard head there to give...

Freier is not a realistic proposition until he has strung some games together. And he hasn't done that for 2 years. S Finger for me.

Yep that's exactly what I was referring to. Having all boarders made a big difference to culture as well as ability to train together more often. It's easier to enforce a no dickheads policy in an all boarder environment.

3. TPN 2. Waugh (c'mon people, he bleeds blue!) 1. Baxter (he's in the form of his career) Mitchell next Cliffy was great before he left and probably would have got it had he not been crocked Beale was impressive in 4 games Turner came good at the end Mumm was Mumm. Consistently good and worked...

S Finger to start and Fitzy on the bench for me. I also wouldn't be surprised to see Charles get some consideration. Very good player, but less exposure to the big time than Fitzy.

He should be nicely cooked by then. Ready for the big time. Thanks Qld.

Agree Ash, but Palmer's scrummaging shouldn't be judged on these performances. He is really a THP and plays like one, he rarely plays LHP. That's why the scrums were collapsing. 2 THPs against each other means they are both instinctively trying to bore down rather than one of them trying to get...

Re: Melbourne Rebels recruitment: update what you hear Most of the franchises don't offer post rugby incentives as such. They do try to enhance post rugby opportunity by encouraging tertiary studies (including paying HECS fees etc), associating players with a sponsor which may lead to post...

Re: Oz S15 Squads 2011 Scrub Pauliasi, apparently he has broken his ankle again.

If his hammy stood up to that test, things are clearly on the improve then. :lmao:

Mate, that's a massive if.

Agree with all of that. Very much the way I saw it as well.

My understanding too, Noddy. Contracts go from Nov 1 to Oct 31 because pre season training starts on Nov 1.

Is James Williams another one from the Steve "Horse" Williams stable?
