That wasn't really my point. I was more applauding the fact that he is still playing, albeit subbies, hopefully passing on some skills and wisdom to up-and-coming players. Would love to see more players taking his lead.

Had an old prop team mate come up to the coach really upset at half time. Said to the coach "the prop on the other team called me an inbred". Knowing him it might just have hit too close to the bone ....

Pierre Hola would also be close to 40 so I don't think anyone should have a problem with him playing 'down' in Subbies. At least he is giving back to the game unlike a lot of Wallabies have a tendency to do.

Posted this on the Shute Shield thread on Saturday but feel it could hep answer some questions over on this thread: Came across this interview: http://www.2gb.com/audioplayer/96181 Few points - Alan Jones is a wanker of the highest order (though you already knew that) - Ben Fordham is training...

TOCC, if you listen to the podcast I just posted the link too it is on seven digital meaning it is available nationally.

Came across this interview: http://www.2gb.com/audioplayer/96181 Few points - Alan Jones is a wanker of the highest order (though you already knew that) - Ben Fordham is training to be the next Alan Jones. - Ben's brother Nick was one of the guys who put the deal together and have signed up...

Has anyone mentioned Darren Coleman for the coaching position? did an excellent job with NSW Country in the NRC and prior to that every team he has coached has shown improvement. He has experience working in professional environments in Japan and was an assistant at the Brumbies IIRR in 2009...

Mentioned this in the regional rugby thread - Hornsby have entered the Central Coast comp starting this year. Not sure if juniors will be joining as well or if it is just seniors.

Read in the local paper today that Hornsby have joined the local comp this year. Not sure if it is juniors as well or just seniors. Will be good to have a 10 team comp again.

Hoping the delay isn't the same as C7 used to have i.e. game starting 2 hours after full-time resulting in a midnight kick-off. Hoping the delay will be a kick-off at 8:30 for a 7:30 game.

Only knew it was on at that time due to the channel surfing I had to do prior to rugby starting at 3pm. sfa to watch until the rugby came on.

Interesting if true as last year at 3pm on a Saturday 7mate had the aerial ping pong. Would love to see the SS on tv though.

Rego day for my son tomorrow. Interesting with the recent ARU levy change (or whatever you call it) that the club (through the ARU) have mandated that no player in any age or grade is allowed to train or play until they have paid the ARU component of the registration. As a retired player I think...

Just reading the rugby news is K Hunt the Reds VC for the season or just this game? Seems like a strange appointment if either is the case as he hasn't played much rugby since school.

A late nomination for starting halfback - Mark Catchpole (Warringah and NSW half, think he toured with the Wallabies in the early 90s after a raft of injuries) was busted for dealing drugs a couple of years back. Not sure if he served time for it.

What's happened with Rohan Saifoloi from Souths? Is he still playing there or has he moved on? Thought he was a very under-rated fly-half.

Interesting article Boyo, the most telling is his jibe at the ARU concerning grassroots funding and highlighting the fact that all the other major sports focus on growing the base whereas the ARU focusses on the top of the pyramid.

I think a few people on this thread need to stop, take a deep breath and then move onto a new topic relating to Greg Growden. The whole Beale / Patston / McKenzie thing has been done to death. It is a new year, with new hope and as that annoying song from my daughter's favourite movie says "Let...
