    Having a draft like in AFL

    Bo Jackson was so annoyed by being selected by Tampa Bay that he decided to play for the Kansas City Royals. For those out there that dont get this, he was the No1 draft pick in the NFL and chose to go to baseball instead. Same can be said for Warren Moon and Raghib Ismail who went to the...

    Shute Shield 2011

    I spoke to a guy yesterday who had played a bit of first grade in 09 and 10, he is in seconds this week. I asked him if he was dirty. He told me that he would work his arse off to get back in the picture. Brock and the likes need to think this way. He didn't exactly set the world on fire at the...

    Shute Shield 2011

    Those two and Eddie Aholelei, Maile Hingano. From the Force the Marlins need their injury problems to be solved so they can maybe get back Metuisela and Sefanaia, although he will probably go back to sevens. In brumby land Tyrone Smith is on the bench this weekend so he wont be seen.

    Who are the fastest players in NSW rugby?

    This is why I didn't bother with Mulcahy. He only played lower grades last year.

    Who are the fastest players in NSW rugby?

    The 40 comes from the scouting of professional football players in the US. College players and professional athletes have their times scrutinized because it evaluates 2 core things - explosiveness and short term speed. These are the same skills that are very important in rugby.

    Waratah Shield 2011

    Back in the day there were at least a hundred entrants. I guess the problem might be the top end. Example being why would Forest High enter if they know they will have to play SAC in the first round. I remember in 2006 I was teaching at a sports high school on the Northern Beaches. Our Buchan...

    The powers that be have introduced a new pool system. Local govt and systemic schools to play 3 games on a single day. Winner will progress. Same with sports high schools and schools with established rugby programs. This was first introduced with the Sports High schools a couple of years ago but...

    Rebels Recruitment.

    Interested to know how the Welsh No8 goes. Gareth Delve and Andy Powell are both playing well for the Rebels and Wasps. Also Martin Johnson should also have a look at Lipman. Alot was said about the rebels recruitment drive but in these 2 and Cipriana they have found some gems.

    Rebels vs Hurricanes - 2011R06

    Woeful attempt by Mitchell to tackle Vito. He needs to go back and do some weights.

    Shute Shield 2011

    Apparently Bernie Orbell to Manly as well. I think he and Marshall Milroy are having a side bet on who can play for the most clubs. The Ma'as are also playing. Does anyone know the current whereabouts of Rodney and Lamaarn Ma'a?

    Tom Carter

    Tatafu went to Granville High school. He represented Aust schools as a number 8. He was signed by the Brumbies. As they had Jeremy Paul and others there he had no opportunity so he went back to NSW. The previous post is actually three comments about Carter not Nathan Grey. Tom Carter is a...

    Tom Carter

    I live in Manly and the only reason the Brumbies logo is associated with me is a protest to NSWRU about people such as Tatafu, George, Mark Gerrard etc who had to move to the ACT for the opportunity they deserved in Sydney. What was meant by the comparison is that he doesn't play as a second 5...

    Tom Carter

    He is this generations Nathan Grey. In club rugby he is a dirty player. In S15 he is nowhere near an elite level.
