HJ The 2013 Annual Report of the NSWJRU makes for some interesting reading, particularly with reference to the AJRU......nice to see audited accounts though, prepared & presented on time ! Seems like the AGM last weekend was well attended & it will be iinteresting to see what happens with rep...

Some interesting reading has subsequently / miraculously appeared on the NSW JRU website: http://www.nswjuniors.rugbynet.com.au/default.asp?id=140388 Wonder if he was anticipating a call from the SMH.......... Will be extremely interested in the pundits review of these reports &...

It's certainly far more entertaining to watch than that dished up by the Wobblies last weekend !

Or bowlers who can bowl at the stumps........ One would suggest that they don't use the examples seen on the idiot box over the weekend as to how best to improve their strike rate !

Without wishing to expose my naiveté, is anyone able to advise how this works in Aerial Ping Pong or 6-tackle….. If my very regrettably shallow understanding re AFL is concerned, (and using these teams purely as examples….) someone who plays for the Swans can get dropped to say the Drummoyne...

To be fair HJ, she inherited a bit of a shambles from her predecessors….and IIRC – nominated for the position of President to help try & move things forward, not dwell in the past. That being said, not a lot has been actioned since the Sate Championships as regards AR's etc, however, stepping...

Without wishing to side-track the current debates bubbling away on this thread………..if Rugby is in such a parlous state ( and I don’t doubt for a minute that things are pretty crook, even if only 50% of the commentary herein was “reasonably accurate”…) – why would anyone then be encouraging their...

IS / ILTW Since Cricket now seems to be part of this thread - would you like to comment on the makeup of the current 1stXI at Scots ? It's easy to pick off the past bits & pieces - easy cannon fodder. I would be interested in your thoughts about this 2013 / 2014 team (- and no, I do not have a...

ILTW I understand from "a reliable source, generally", that the Report has indeed been completed. In such circumstances, one would expect the report to be presented to the College Council, (which usually meets once a month so I am told), for their review and assesment. After that the Principal...

Whilst I have no doubt that amongst this thread are the seeds of something that might actually work in the future ( with a lot of buy-in from ALL parties, naturally) , without wishing to appear a “negative Nellie” I believe that a significant issue to be overcome is the lack of available ovals...

Thanks for reminding us of the not-so-wonderful OB’s, HJ. I am sure that EVERY school has an OB or OG that has probably brought some form of discredit to their Alma Mater at some point in time. But with any luck, there are many more that the Schools would be very proud to hold out as...

It will be interesting to see whether Dr’s Hawkes and Wright embrace their own suggestions / requests for a new era of “non-professionalism” in schoolboy sport by returning rowing training to the “old days” of 2 afternoons a week, and recommending their tennis athletes not spend half a year at...

And still no Annual Reports ( since 2008) from NSWJRU either, HJ. I suspect that you might be waiting a while if that is anything to go by ..... I am sure everything will become clear about June 30 next year.....

"Present plans include adding at least 1 roundabout..." IS, You forgot to add the "Pathway Calming Devices"...AKA Speed Humps.....AKA ...Clubs vs SJRU vs Schools vs Everyone else !

HJ My understanding was that it was a case of "build it & they will come" - which proved quite successful. By allowing parents to turn up with their children at roughly the same time each week ( thereby providng a degree of certainty from a forward planning perspective) to a well administered...

IS, No problem from my end.... A mates son was in the team, and he was happy to recount the battle over a quiet ale later in the day....and thankfully no complaints about anything ! Sounded like a pretty tight match, though, and to the victors go the plaudits....and quite rightly so...

Correct, IS

If the Rebels 2014 thread is accurate, looks like Horwitz has been snaffled by the Mexicans already..... Good luck to him though, however, hope he finds his way back to Tahland sooner rather than later...

“XXX, who was charged with 'Behave contrary, punching and kicking', said he would consider playing rugby union and hoped the suspension wouldn't prevent him from coaching his younger brother's junior league team.” This extract from an article in today’s SMH. Great – just the sort of person...

"Most did not because they are either in the middle of yr11 exams or HSC trials and could not afford the extra 2-3 hours attending both games. A couple just do not want to play 4ths, but most it was a case of studying taking a priority." Sorry Ted S A pretty poor excuse - all of the other...
