    Then it should have been transferred to Nicholson Park. Not a few Vikings went into early retirement rather than play there. .

    Waratahs - Positivity thread

    RH, virtually all of those points are what I cite when expressing my frustration that my team doesn't dominate the Super competition. Perhaps we could coin a variant of the old Chinese curse: May you be born with all the advantages. .

    Even by your customarily high standards, LG, that was a particularly well argued post.

    I feel guilty about not getting down to the game, wreckless, but I'm committed each week to watch some of Sydney Uni's teams.

    I might be able to, Cutter, but have no intention of doing so. It's not a coconut shy where anyone can have a go at me. I don't keep records of teams, never have, not about to start. I took the trouble to go onto the NSW Country Rugby Union website this afternoon and saw the team selected on 6...

    Sydney Colts 2012

    Tahboy, is it possible that your source was referring to Queensland Uni rather than Sydney Uni in relation to Jake McIntyre? Geographically it would make more sense. Despite your questionable motivation the point you were making actually makes sense. Five-eighth is not a position where Sydney...

    Sydney Colts 2012

    The font of all knowledge about Sydney Uni is at it again. Presumably that would be Jake McIntyre who is still at school - in fact at Alstonville State High which is virtually an overnight trip to Sydney Uni. Does the Oracle mean that "Uni have signed up Jake McIntyre . . . for this season"...

    Shute Shield 2012

    I'd have been disappointed if Tahboy hadn't bought into this, trying to give the pot another stir. I've got enough to do trying to help my own club to be bothered trying to tear another one down. .

    What then, Nusadan, is the meaning or purpose of the sentence that Dam0 and I were discussing? The sentence makes it very clear that a front row progressing into a state of readiness can occur post the "set call". Where in the Laws can I find the clause which puts an "onus" on a "front row to...

    You've really caught me out, RH. There was indeed a gem amongst the dross: Well spotted. It can be hard to stay focussed listening to that undertaker's delivery. Imagine him in a black suit and doesn't he look the part? .

    What a disappointment that was. Our man's been got at. An interview lasting 8 minutes 4 seconds and not a single instance of Robbiespeak. Piss off, ARU media minders. He mightn't be that flash as a coach but his pressers have always been compulsory viewing. As a verbal contortionist he has been...

    In practice, Dam0, you may be right in that the highlighted sentence may make "not a jot of difference", but I feel that the principle expressed in the sentence is potentially dangerous. Safe scrummaging requires that the engagement be a coordinated action of both packs. If they are not in synch...

    Shute Shield 2012

    Cutter, I have no authority to speak on behalf of the Club even though I am very actively involved with it. I understand that a letter of complaint has been sent by the Club to Brett Papworth which details the individual situations of a large number of Uni players. Among them were at least five...

    Because this statement is made in the context of a series of attacks on, and unfounded assertions presented as fact about, just one club, Sydney Uni, I will respond to it. Not one Sydney Uni player is under contract to the Club. I repeat, not one. .

    Andrew, despite Sydney Uni's opposition to the way the ARC was implemented it is a matter of record that the Club contributed more than 30 players to the competition. .
