    Shute Shield 2011

    These guys have such a limited opportunity to earn any coin. Instead of us - me included - berating them we should also show more compassion to the reasons why players change clubs. If I was working at one of the big 4 and one of my competitors asked me to come over for an extra 50k then I'd be...

    Shute Shield 2011

    I would never ask someone to name a source, but i think your one has either spent too much time in the sun or he is smoking the good stuff.

    Shute Shield 2011

    I didn't notice kurt doing anything of value in last years semi against Uni. Possibly because he had Barnes opposite him.

    Macqueen past his used by date?

    Interesting that in your first post you have chosen to write off a world Cup winning coach and talked up a second rower from Rat Park who is no world beater at all, he didn't star in colts let alone grade. Also I dont understand your ridiculous use of exclamation marks as well.

    ACT 1st Grade Vs Sydney 1st grade

    Parramatta are improving and Penrith beat Souths last year. West harbour are struggling a bit but have a look at Rugby News in the first week of April and check the purchases made by the Marlins, Souths, Easts and Randwick. Manly have 4 forwards from the 08 Aust schoolboys side, Sevens players...

    ACT 1st Grade Vs Sydney 1st grade

    I cant understand your logic, these players have left the Canberra set up. It is equivalent to a Tongan arguing that they would have been stronger on the wing if Jonah hadn't followed his family to NZ. It happened, just like Campo joining the Wicks all those years ago. To argue that a current...

    ACT 1st Grade Vs Sydney 1st grade

    I look at the John Dent writeups on the Brumbies website and always check the teams. There is no way any of your clubs would be close to the strength of the top 5 or 6 Shute Shield teams. I wonder how often some of you actually watch the Shute Shield. It starts again in two weeks.

    Under 20s

    Can anyone tell me where to locate the training squad. The Manly Daily reported that Manly had 2 in it. So I guess it exists.

    Shute Shield 2011

    Every time I hear a player has SIGNED with a club it makes me cringe. As a Marlins fan I obviously want them to be strong, but this is becoming crazy. Maybe a new rule needs to be put in place about recruitment. It seems Manly, Souths and Easts are trying there hardest to out Uni, Uni.

    Matt Giteau's Yellow Card?

    A mate of mine asked today why all the Canterbury home games are done by work experience kids. After the last couple of weeks I think he has a point.

    Shute Shield 2011

    I was reading the Leicester Tigers Website and it say's that Mafi has had his contract for another 2 seasons. Good luck to him. I never quite understood why he was let go by the Waratahs and ARU. Now that he has played for Tonga I guess he will never be back. He gets pushed out the door because...

    Should Subbies be a feeder comp for Grade?

    This has never been the case on the Northern Beaches. If the Saver's were to uncover a gun then they wouldn't ring the Marlins. They would use him to help them win the Meldrum Cup. I am someone who has watched this competition since my dad and uncles played in the late 70s. This feeder idea...

    Sydney Colts 2011

    From 1st grade at the Marlins, to Scots College, to Colts and then Japan via selling raffle tickets outside Bendigo Bank in Harbord for a junior Marlins tour of NZ. Is this the way he thought it would all go 6 years ago ?

    Should Subbies be a feeder comp for Grade?

    Most young guys play colts for a couple of years. If there seems to be a good chance that they will make 1sts or 2nds then they usually stay, otherwise they gravitate back to subbies. Think Newport Juniors untill you are 17, then Warringah Colts till you turn 20. The choice then is do we all go...

    No Hope

    If our S15 teams continue this garbage then come RWC time we are screwed. I just saw Ben Hand drop a ball with nobody anywhere near him. If Taf is gone then we are as well as he, Pat McCabe the Force backrow, as well as the golden boy are the only ones worth picking. Last night it was a dropped...
