Melbourne Rising Head Coach Zane Hilton has named an experienced side for the Rising’s Buildcorp National Rugby Championship (NRC) clash against Queensland Country for the Horan-Little Shield at Bond University on Sunday afternoon. Thirteen players boast Super Rugby experience with a cumulative...

OK, I didn't know he was a musician. I meant has he found himself a different club or is he returning to Brisbane?

Sam was an interesting one. Whilst he did a lot at the breakdown he also gave away a lot of PKs in the games I saw him play. Where is he playing these days? The first 10-15 minutes yesterday was good, hard rugby and I think it was both sides sizing each other up. By that stage Quins obviously...

Leo Crowley comes in to assistant coach. TBH I've never heard of him. The RaboDirect Melbourne Rebels have signed highly-rated New Zealander Leo Crowley, currently with Canada ahead of the 2015 Rugby World Cup, as Assistant Coach until the end of the 2017 Super Rugby season. Crowley brings a...

Unfortunately not for those of us in Melbourne. We have some AFL on instead.

Is the game on YouTube? I saw that it was streamed online and was wondering if it was available to watch.

The dominance at schoolboy level is ridiculous at the moment, honestly I don't see the point of having a comp where one team it putting 50-80 points on every single other side all year, including the GF. However it won't change so there is no point in whinging about it.

Even if you throw it on Kickstarter and get it shared on every club's FB page around the country I am sure you would be able to raise the $$$ in time for the 1st game.

I've refereed both Dewar Shield and 2nd grade in Sydney. They are about on par, the good teams in both comps would have good contests. The main difference between the two comps is the sytle of play. In Melbourne it seems ingrained that the forwards should get the ball about 50% of the time...

Yeah just saw that, I was just commenting on what was in the Herald Sun as he wasn't listed there.

Lloyd didn't make it. Put Taiso in there, he was dominant over the weekend in the semi final and has been all year.

The ones I know off the top of my head. Forwards: Mitch Andrews, - Melbourne Duncan Chubb, Murray Douglas, - Quins I believe. Sakaria Noa, - Souths Fereti Sa'aga, - Uni Pom Simona, - Quins Sione Taufa, - Quins Mike Tyler - Backs: Maradona Farao, - Quins Stacey Ili, - Uni Justin Marsters, -...

The premier reserve game has been a belter.
