Grass Roots stalwart, and was great for our game; http://www.waratahs.com.au/Waratahs/News/NewsArticle/tabid/157/ArticleID/17411/Vale-John-Mulford-NSW-and-Australian-Rugby%E2%80%99s-honorary-archivist.aspx

Cheers TOCC - I am one of the guys who is right behind SS, but it is more than that it is Premiere rugby, I want all states lifting their premier rugby and the ARU ensuring that happens - if we lift that level quality pushes up.

I'm sure the NRC is about lifting the depth of 2nd tier (soup) players, and not about droping first tier (test) players back into 3rd tier rugby. In my eyes the NRC should start after Premier Rugby so all the aspiring player wanting to step up to the next level get to do so. The start dates...

How dare players play for the Wallabies instead of their NRC team What Wallabies were running around in the NRC this year, or last year? I had thought one of the drivers of the NRC was unearthing, developing and providing a pathway for "new talent" and not simply sticking contracted players in a...

I was doing a Dave Beat and asked to know more about your background - appreciate you sharing. Last couple of years from memory it was round 4 or 5 before a game was played at Manly Oval. In 2015 our first home game was at Wakehurst rugby park. So allthough you say recent past years were okay...

Okay you sound so in touch with it. Were are you based? What team do you suppory? How many home and away games do go and support your team?

So if the SS launched and announced the draw and 22 rounds in August it would be the NRC who is playing silly buggers when the announce theirs in Nov.

The NRC may not have the same ground pressures the SS has. Concord. Rat Park. TG Milner. Uni Is there anything stopping the NRC also being open to adjusting?

This maybe a dumb arse question. People have said shift the SS forward. Why not shift the NRC back?

Yep you were right, top 6 / bottom 6 based on club championship points not were each grade was sitting on the table. As we know some teams could be in the top 3 in there grade, but the club maybe floundering in the CC points

Coach, this one came up on my face book https://www.ruck.co.uk/15-reasons-why-children-should-play-rugby-union/

Coach - I thought it was a nightmare as i was in bed when i heard the same. Also seen their add on Tele - and i'll pay complement when due, it is a great add, they even use our word "grass roots". I'm not big on adds, but that add will attract the interest of parents and in turn kids.

A long drive, and it doesn't just need to be the arvo - makes for a great day. Spot on, and why Premier Rugby is good.

Article attached - to busy to say much else. Apart from it just doesn't happen it requires work - good work done repeatidly well. Best I've got is the attached but if you google manly Daily, or check out their face book a better copy maybe found

No I'm not implying there are no other colts in Sydney plying their trade. To have thousand of lines on a page reflecting different paths - kids, parents, supports, run the risk of getting lost. And get the shits through frustration. It is simple; There is a path, and each entity is a step...

HI RC, Going from 12 teams to 8 teams is reducing the number of grades playing, it is taking away 4 clubs. Each club has 7 teams (4 grade teams, and should have 3 colts teams), so it could be said 8 grade teams are being removed, and 8 colts teams are being removed. Each club should have a...

I'm a sponsor and i like getting down, and also travel to watch 4 grades.

Couple of brands at play

Razamataz - that sounds to easy. So what you are saying if clubs do the work, get results by increasing participation, there maybe in kind reimbursement of some sort through the increased levies so the grass (roots) can continue to be fertilised and watered. To me that sounds to simple, and...
