    Channel 9 continues the tradition of absymal free to air rugby coverage...

    I don't want to disparage the Daily Telegraph nor its readers, but surely the editorial committee of that paper would be concerned or embarrassed by some of the stuff he wrote on his blog. "Let’s not get casrried away heer. Rugby isn’t played seriously through Euorpe (bar France and Italty)...

    Channel 9 continues the tradition of absymal free to air rugby coverage...

    After reading some of the stuff in the Tele, and in view of the quote below and the quality of his writing, does anyone else think that Dean Ritchie and Greg Growden are actually the same person? This person, when he writes as Growden in the SMH, writes from a dark, whingeing and cynical...

    Perhaps as they playing New Zealand they have used the Kiwi spelling of it.

    SupeRugby Final 2011: Queensland Reds V Canterbury Crusaders

    The most worrying thing about tonight's game was that I actually enjoyed Mary Poppins. Definitely not due to the rug rat behind me who was far more vocal and active than most of the cast in the second half. Crying, screaming and kicking the back of my chair. If it wasn't for her inbred...

    SupeRugby Final 2011: Queensland Reds V Canterbury Crusaders

    My God, no need to worry about the length for a great read. I will take that over Mary Poppins at any time....

    Reds Saders.. Pick the Result

    All I hope for is that Mary Poppins is slightly entertaining.

    Brumbies 2012

    Whether this is more beat-up or rumour, but it looks as though Ben Mowen may be a Brumbie next year. http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/sport/ben-mowen-to-bolster-brumbies-backrow/story-e6frg7mf-1226088244386

    SupeRugby Final 2011: Queensland Reds V Canterbury Crusaders

    One thing about this game that really stands out for me is the capacity of the female to be totally oblivious to the wants, desires and needs of the male. In many things. A good female friend of mine has decided to drag me to see Mary Poppins this Saturday night. A musical over the final of...

    Super 15 XV

    Yes, it is a pity, but Australian Rugby must be happy that there is now serious competition for more places in the team. One of those Catch-22 situations.

    William Webb Ellis Cup in Sydney?

    In one sense it would make sense having the thing go on a tour before the World Cup this year, but could anyone confirm whether the thing is actually in Sydney at the moment on tour. Apparently it is supposed to be "on display" at the Oaks at Neutral Bay this Friday. Haven't heard anything...

    Semifinal 1: Reds V Blues

    Perhaps the competition could have two trophies? The winner who comes out top at the end of the season. And then a winner from the top 6 sides who play in a semi-final type affair.....

    Semi Final 1: Blues vs Waratahs

    A perennial bug bear with me: Australian sides and their boots/ studs in less than optimum conditions. They seem to slip and slide far more than other sides... Why not the longer studs? Especially as there is no longer any rucking!

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2011

    Would anyone have any scoring details? I was hoping for details in this morning's SMH. I was, for the Herald's Rugby coverage, yet again sadly let down.

    Semi Final 1: Blues vs Waratahs

    So not only the injury Gods conspiring against them, but also the volcano Gods. All we need now is for the game to be totally officiated by Kiwi officialdom..... Regardless of how they go though congratulations must be given to them...they have shown character to get where they have. That...

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2011

    Earlier today I was feeling rather jealous of those people missing work et al to watch the GPS/CAS game this evening. Looking westward from my window high over the CBD at the moment, I believe that not quite to be the case.... Not that I should be gloating about it.

    CAS Rugby 2011

    In attempt to resurrect this thread, has anyone any meaningful and mature thoughts or news on this weekend's games. My understanding of the draw is (with home team first): Cranbrook vs Trinity Waverley vs Barker Knox vs St Aloysius I would guess that the latter two would be the...

    What Inside Backs Are Available for the Force

    Is Tom Carter off contract? Perhaps the Force could go with him......

    What Inside Backs Are Available for the Force

    I think grant is either Brumbies or Waratahs. In the academies or development squads. Bit I could be wrong.

    Australian Schoolboys and National Championships 2011

    It would seem that there are a lot of injured school kids out there this year. (Much like the state sides in the Super Rugby). Would my perception be correct that injuries are a little more prevalent this year than in the past?
