    Shute Shield 2017

    One by product of the farcical Super comp and the mooted team reduction, there will be more focus on Club Rugby and a lot of fringe Super rugby players re evaluating their futures in Rugby. Should be more players available for the Shute Shield. On the other hand, wont surprise me to see a lot...

    Western Force 2017

    is he a winger or lock? the WA Rugby site says he is a winger. Could imagine that would scare a few opponents.

    The Difference Between Kiwi and Aussie/Saffer Teams

    Yep - nailed it. You play Aus Under 20s , get well beaten and end up ranked 8th in the world, then get a Super contract and play Super Rugby. Let these boys play with men and see how they go. Its too big a jump from playing with boys to playing with men. With the Force about to be chopped, 30...

    Shute Shield 2017

    Interesting to see Wayne Borzak & Sam Gerry Burgess lining up for the students on the weekend. Don't recall Uni getting too many grade players from other Clubs in previous seasons.

    Waratahs 2017

    So the Tahs recruit guys without any intention of playing them . Then when injuries occur and they have to play someone, they get a game. Does that mean that they are playing guys who they think aren't ready for Super Rugby? Understand that might be part of a longer term plan however don't...

    Waratahs 2017

    With no disrespect to Maclean Jones & Jameson Schultz, it is a curious decision to bring 2 Queensland schoolboy forwards or Oz Under 20 players straight into the Waratahs. Can't imagine that would happen in New Zealand or South Africa. They may be a good prospects however Jones made plenty of...

    any updates on Adam Coleman's injury?. Didn't look great when he was going off.

    Waratahs 2017

    I agree with the criticism of Horwitzs form to date however, as someone who has seen a lot of his play, reckon he is capable of improving. His first year in Shute Shield was very ordinary, the next year he won the award for the best player in the Comp. Whether he can sustain the rate of...

    Waratahs 2017

    Ed Gower? Jarred Barry? Hugh Perret? David Feltsher, the Batgers, The Souths centre, atinipulu? No one from Easts although you do have a Lock in the Waratahs whom I has played maybe one first grade game but starred for Scots College... Heaps of Uni & Wicks players and heaps who have buggered off...

    Yes! and once you miss Under 20s you have bugger all chance of going to Super rugby in Australia.

    Agree, Miller is a 7 only mind you, Wilkin is not much more. I don''t think he is anywhere near 104 kgs despite what media guides might say.

    I know who I would pick as a 7 if my life depended on it.

    Waratahs 2017

    dont wish to shoot the messenger however I think "schoolboy pedigree" as an attribute is a major flow in Aus rugby talent identification. Let the boys play with men to see how they match up IMO.

    Waratahs 2017

    We all wish to see Jim get over what must be a severe jolt for a young man. Hopefully the rugby community have sorted out a career path for him On another note, why did Brad Wilkins get signed by the Tahs over Will Miller? Brad goes well enough however Miller has proven himself time & time again...

    Shute Shield 2017

    What about Darren Colemans whinge about the draw for next year? Can't believe he would start making excuses for Warringah already....I reckon they have a great roster of players and will do well despite their Coach.
