Concur wholeheartedly with BB (at #151,) Pulver has a background as an extremely successful businessman (– in media & IT – and by the by, he is not totally unfamiliar with what it actually takes to run a club ( like some who still sit in the Halls of Power ??)! The fact that SuperRugby is...

This was also a "reason" (one amongst a number, admittedly) trotted out by the opponents to the revamped Sydney Junior Competition - that the Saturday Comp lads "couldn't play on Sunday becasue....etc etc". That being said, when the competitons became based on on "when" rather than "where" one...

The loss of people such as Tony Lantry and Graeme Dedrick leave the Aust schoolboy and Australian rugby community without two significant administrators & contributors. One hopes that all those who enjoy rugby will be thinking of the families of these men at this time. Dedrick's father, John...

Will be very interested to hear the outcome of the NSWJRU AGM that is apparently on this afternoon.....and who will be in charge of the "secret handshake" brigade hereafter. If anything like last year - it will simply be a case of shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic...

This may be a little early ( or perhaps for a new thread ??)............but the attched is now up on the ASRU web site. Hope it fits in here ok.... Cheers The Hound AUSTRALIAN SCHOOLS RUGBY UNION (ASRU) A BIG YEAR AHEAD IN 2013 The coming year features a “first ever” event for Schools Rugby...

From Qick Hands:- One suspects that some of them have only just woken up to the fact that there is now a new 13 man game in town called rugby league. Given that the brand spanking new NSW Rugby League Heaquarters at Moore Park is but a mere drop punt from the NSWRU Bunker....one would have...

This threat has been around for quite some time - going back a significant number of years when the Melbourne AFL heavies were sniffing around various local Sydney Councils to see what grounds they could "acquire" fro AFL use. Whilst I imagine that the younger age groups could play on "modified"...

It should be a relatively simple task to show the GPS Headmasters that they deserve to be re-admitted - display competitiveness in the sport across the board - as they do in tennis, cricket, recently rowing etc. The mechanics of amending the drwa for any competition is a relatively simple...

Nor have Annual Reports been published on their website since 2008. One could ask, respectfully, where is the accountability.........

Contrary to some of the earlier doubts , perhaps a different perspective on this could be that it actually provides some serious room for SGS, SBHS & TAS to move forward. The AAGPS Rugby Competitions (my emphasis) currently exist only for the 1st XV, 2nd XV and from 2012, the 3rd XV. The...

Ditto with the congratulations - persistence & a bit of common sense have finally won through !

I understand that this new H&A competition is expected to commence on 1 June 2013. If correct, then this would allow possibly 2 trial matches following the AAGPS Athletics, with 3 Rounds prior to the end of Term 2, and the remaining 7 rounds to roll out in term 3, finishing on 31/8. ( Unless I...

Sully, I think you will find that the match was an U19 Colts fixture....and that Horwitz was the only "schoolboy" playing... Mind you - tackling No 23 would have been "interesting" no matter what the age !

ILMF, Are you able to advise / confirm if Horwitz played for NSW in that match ?? If so, how did he go ? As LG has commented previously, he had a pretty good season this year. Thanks The Hound

Possibly an interesting side-line to this proposal, is the construction of what may well be the first "officially IRB approved" synthetic sports surface, to allow Rugby Union to be played on it at Narrabeen Sports High. At the present time, it would appear that most Councils, sports/rugby...

Further to the posts regarding the 2013 competition, and the prophesied ladder positions ( back around Posts 230 - 240'ish IIRC), has anyone heard any more "noise" about the 2013 season comp being a formal 2 round, home and away competition, for 1st & 2nd XV's - excluding Grammar & High. The 3rd...

A couple of additional points for reference / interest (hopefully...) Jack Tuttle a late withdrawal due to tonsilitis, hence Moerea starting at 12 Kiwi no 4 their Bronze boot recipient ( sorry can't find his name). Appalling stuff up by the man with the whistle allowing 3 scrums to pack down...

Belated match report from the Samoan Test. Whilst a little on the late side, the pigeon finally fought his way home, so thought that the following match report might add a bit to that posted earlier. The Australian Schoolboys convincingly defeated the Samoan Schoolboys in Hamilton last Tuesday...
