    Declining participation and ARU plans for the future

    I agree but also disagree and say that constructively. For the record i like tackling, and learning it the right way from the first game - not starting it in U8's. That way when tackling the larger boys you have he right technique. There are mums out there that will stop there kids playing...

    Declining participation and ARU plans for the future

    Over the last 12 months i also have had a few surprises. TWAS our thought processes, and angles have often varied so im going to leave it there. We are also in different geographic, and different market segments.

    Declining participation and ARU plans for the future

    I agree with that. However politics in the way i have referenced it is unfortunately far to prevelant in the most important areas of our game. If i share examples i become apart of it - so in lieu get more kids playing and having fun.

    Declining participation and ARU plans for the future

    That would work, but the Game On program provides that and government funding as well for the Primary Schools. These schools still look for excuses not to do things, we see far to much of this at all sorts of levels - excuses. So as above a serious effort needs to go into PSSA's. Our school does...

    Declining participation and ARU plans for the future

    That is so very true. Sending a spam email out - in some cases 5 in the space of 10 minutes results in emails not being read and being deleted. Then not sending another email out for a couple of weeks, and then why not reference an event that has less than 2 weeks notice to prep and prepare...

    Shute Shield 2017

    I was there. Never said. And a profit Not the case nor do the financials say that. People love twisting things and creating stories without clarification. Great reference though - when Dave Begg came in; We where $200k in the red, over the 5 year stint we are now up $70k. Last year 2015...

    NRC onwards and upwards

    On that, To date all super teams have drawn from the NSW and QLD pathway to varying levels. Has the gradual slide down the Soup ladder related to our lack of focus on a pathway that includes growth. What is the proposed pathway under this longer NRC season? Is there a colts set up, and pathway...

    New Zealand v Wallabies, Eden Park, Sat 22nd October

    I think our tight five get caught as first receiver more than they need to. There were times last night were quick hand would have been good to see.
