    Qld Premier Rugby 2013

    I'm assuming you can throw Chibba Hanson & Jono Lance down for the Heavies as well. McDuling is looking to come back late June/early July I believe and Reiser in coming weeks as well. Well in need of experienced reinforcements.

    Qld Premier Rugby 2013

    It ended up being 6 Colts starting for Prems this week. Huge injury toll at the moment down at the heavies... something like 20-25 Premier squad players, it's quite ridiculous. It was a very "green" Uni side today and by all accounts they stood up after the initial onslaught from Brothers. Heard...

    Waratahs vs Brumbies RD 14 Saturday 18th May

    I found that to be quite an entertaining game of footy. Tahs are certainly trending in the right direction and will win a few more before the season is over and done with. Brumbies hmmmm not sure... they can play some great rugby but then just lose their heads a little/over step the line. My...

    Reds v Brumbies - RD10 2013

    I would agree with you if you were saying he wont play test rugby this year.... because he wont. But he could be a very handy player in years to come.

    Reds v Brumbies - RD10 2013

    Been a bit late on reading this thread. Not sure what your basing you comment of Jono never playing test rugby on, admittedly I've seen a lot more of Lance's play than most.... but I think it's pretty clear he has all the traits of a test level inside back. Great hands, very good kicking game...

    Qld Premier Rugby 2013

    I believe he is studying down the coast. Not sure how he is going, I've heard he's pretty handy. Anyone from Sunnybank shed some light on this?

    Qld Premier Rugby 2013

    Yeah my thoughts exactly. At least the players he comes up against in Prems would have a bit more scrumaging experience. It's odd that he is coming back through 2nd grade, wouldn't have thought he'd ease his way back any further down than off the bench in Prems.

    Qld Premier Rugby 2013

    I know I'm probably going to sound like a wet blanket here but does anyone else think there is perhaps a safety issue with Rod playing 2nd Grade? The bloke has played at the highest level and been a pro for god knows how long... coming up against some bloke who trots around in 2nd grade(could be...

    Qld Premier Rugby 2013

    Good to see that in this forum people can disagree without being called trolls or told you are talking crap simply because you have a different view:D . Petey is probably one of the most aggressive I'll give you that! I didn't know Linde picked up another contract over there. Good for him. Also...

    Qld Premier Rugby 2013

    I completely agree with your comments on Wests(and Scott) and commend them on what appears to be a drastic turn around at the kennel over the past few years but I have to disagree with you on the above quote. There would be a lot of 2nd rowers in Brisbane Club rugby who would have something to...

    Heavies top squad will be in Sydney for the Australian Club Championship unfortunately.... I always enjoy a Heavies v. Filth game day.

    Reds 2013

    Hahaha which GAGR member set this one up aye aye?? C'mon fess up! You could be the one who turns the Reds season around. On a side note Stan Walker has a film? From memory the bloke can hardly speak.

    Reds 2013

    There is little doubt that Toua is a talent and I think he will be up for S15 but I just don't think that is yet, due mainly to his injuries over the past number of seasons. I have heard that he is very nervous about re-injuring his hammies and therefore think there is a lot for him to gain by...

    Law question - TPN's tackling technique

    I was hoping someone would start a thread regarding this type of tackle. Is it illegal? Honestly I don't know, good arguments have been made here about its legality. Is it dangerous? Most definitely... I don't have much of a problem with the danger posed to the tackler as it is their decision to...

    Qld Premier Rugby 2013

    It is the curtain raiser to the round 6 Tah v. Blues match on Sunday 24th March at Allianz Stadium. Surprisingly good idea from NSWRU, great Sunday afternoon of rugby. Would be fantastic if they could somehow organise it to be the curtain raiser to Reds v. Tahs early match each year. I'm aware...

    Reds 2013

    I'll throw my hand up and say I was with you on this train of thought TD! Like you I never thought he didn't have huge potential but I feared he might fall into the injury black-hole that many other talented young guns have over the years and had perhaps lose his mojo in the meantime. And like...

    As much as the Reds need Genia I really hope they don't rush him back and end up doing more harm than good... either to his confidence or to his knee.

    Rebels vs Brumbies RD2 SR2013

    I've hit a nerve here haven't I... knew it would get one Brumbies supporter riled up. Since he began playing for the Wallabies at 12 in 2011 we have won 1 from 6 against the all blacks(16%) if you consider that success you really need to raise your bar a bit. Also I believe last time he played...
