I've been told that Ferris & Whitely are at Easts.

While Myles Hunkin may have played the occasional first grade game over recent seasons because of injuries or absences for various reasons , with respect to him , I don't believe he could be classed as a "first grade " player.

? , he was there last season.

That's correct. However I have come across a number of instances when there is a contractual agreement of sorts , but it is the club which has not met its obligations , in which case the player can do what he likes.

In what sense are they "not released" ?

Well who's at Parra ?

As far as I am aware practically all players in first grade are receiving some sort of payment/inducement. This also applies to a number of second grade players . Colts players in some clubs are also receiving benefits , including cash. A number of players will eventually look to overseas...

You may be correct as to the current thoughts of the ARU.I don't have that information. However the message conveyed to the club presidents via NSWRU was ,at the time , to have 1 colts & I think 3 grade (it could have been 2). This was some years ago & may have been changed. This was designed to...

The ARU's expressed view a few years ago , was that it would like a competition of 3 senior grades & one colts team. This has surfaced again on a couple of occasions since.

This is "The Shute Shield 2013" , thread. Maybe you could start a "Talk about some footy " thread , & then go for your life.

Sigh !!! It's hard to get through.

Also have Tom Robertson & Henry Clunnies-Ross

There are a number of clubs chasing him.

There are hundreds of boys who want to play Rugby League in the Penrith area.(Not my club by the way). According to a number of parents from that area that I have spoken to , there are not enough teams/clubs to accommodate them , so they travel to another catchment area or don't play. Do they...

Playing on Sunday comes with the territory in the NRL , & their players know that when they sign their contract. Union is not played on Sunday often in the Shute Shield . If it was a regular occurrence I believe that SOME of the current grade & colts players may not play , & perhaps switch to a...

Unlike yourself ,I have seen a number of players who would not play on Sunday ,& this includes not being available for a finals game. It's particularly evident among the colts who,presumably ,are more likely to be influenced by their family.

When considering Sunday Rugby , it should be taken into account that many of the Polynesian players will not play sport on Sunday.

Yes I stand corrected re the names. My point however remains the same. Wests supported them in various ways ,through their school & junior Rugby , they live locally ,& the players themselves wanted to stay at Wests.Davis Sio also coached Wests juniors. There are many reasons why a player leaves...

Why not advertise the fixtures on Friday & Saturday? Letting the public know that games are actually on , together with the time & place , I should have thought ,was the very least that the SRU could do to support the competition for which that body primarily exists. There must be many...

Those of you who are predicting the imminent demise of the Penrith club may be a little premature . Handy numbers so far at training would suggest otherwise. I for one hope they grow & flourish.
