That's right RF, both in the same round from memory - and both major upsets. My mail says that Aggies were very polished against Coota, but Temora v Tahs was a tight one. CRP looks a million bucks, it's enjoyed a good off-season. Number 3 even looks good.

It's time for an honesty session at Griffith by the look of things. Griffith forfeited 3rd Grade on Saturday morning and only took 25 odd players to Albury (they got done 52-0 in 2nds). Their coach is less than impressed with the commitment displayed by the club, they have a solid core group of...

I'm always up for a bit of Waratah bashing, but whoever is coaching them to kick needs to go. Way too many mindless kicks this season and it seems to be the default option rather than a few settler plays.

Why would someone waste their time at the Tahs? Worst rugby institution in the world...

ROUND THREE RESULTS: First Grade: CSU 36 bt RARC 28 Tahs 21 bt Temora 13 Albury 83 bt Griffith 0 Young 42 bt Leeton 24 Aggies 40 bt Coota 7 City 50 bt Tumut 14 Second Grade: Hay 12 bt CSU 5 Tahs 27 bt Temora 7 Albury 52 bt Griffith 0 Young 19 bt Leeton 12 Aggies 38 bt Coota 5 Tumut 36 bt...

RARC 2nd Grade update: RARC have forfeited their 2nd Grade for the duration of the 2012 season. The Hay Cutters will leave the Third Grade competition and play as RARC 2nd Grade for the remainder of the season.

ROUND THREE: CSU (4) v RARC (12) Jack Burey had a handy game at halfback for the Reddies last Friday night, and CSU will miss his ability to marshal his forward pack and provide good service to Paul Hood this week due to an ankle injury. Although RARC were on the wrong end of an 11 try romp...

ROUND TWO RESULTS First Grade: Albury 59 bt RARC 0 CSU 43 bt Temora 6 Coota 46 bt Leeton 13 Aggies 79 bt Tumut 0 City 21 bt Tahs 17 Tahs lead 17-0 at oranges Griffith 22 bt Young 19 If my memory serves me correctly, Tahs have not lost to City since 2002. A few cricket scores in there...

RARC have forfeited 2nd Grade at home to Albury which is disappointing. There are discussions around Hay becoming RARC 2nds for the duration of the season with RARC losing two home games to Hay. It will be interesting to see what comes out of this as I'm sure RARC don't want to be in the...

Uni v Royals sees two Riverina boys face off in AJ Abel and Davey Wright. Great to see some regional content in the 'berra!

ROUND TWO Temora (10) v CSU (8) @ Temora Recreation Ground FRIDAY NIGHT UNDER LIGHTS Temora will be pleased with themselves after their efforts at the border last weekend with some bone crunching defence from Bill McCrone and will be looking to Campbell Maxwell to recover from his groin...

As a Brumbies fan this is a major disappointment, I rate Hooper highly and would love to see him stay. As other people have noted, his home is in Sydney and if that's the reason, I can't blame him fpr wanting to go.

Three foreits in there doesn't look good. Any mail on why that's happening? Parkes and Rhino's Colts, Roo's 3rds. Are the Colt's teams short on numbers? Any news on how the "village" clubs are going? I know that Grenfell Black Panthers played at the Cootamundra 10's tournament here in SIRU a...

ROUND ONE RESULTS: Sorry for the delay, I was watching the Brumbies PUMP the Rebels. 1st Grade: Albury 35 bt Temora 19 Aggies 29 bt City 8 Coota 28 bt Griffith 20 Tahs 31 bt CSU 27 Tumut 15 DREW Leeton 15 Young 38 bt RARC 10 2nd Grade: Albury 31 bt Temora 17 Aggies bt City - Not sure...

ROUND ONE Albury v Temora @ Murray Field Tough first up game for Temora and probably their longest road trip of the year. I think this game will help the Tuskers out as it will give them a good first hit out against quality opposition and then an opportunity to bond together for the trip...

SIRU 2012 PREVIEW... 2012 has the potential to be a really close season – there have been some significant player and coaching movements which should see a much more competitive playing field across the board. I don't see Aggies and Tahs being the powerhouses that they have been for the past few...

No way Neil, Ben Hand is lucky to have a Super Rugby training contract. I'm sure he's a great fella and I hope he makes some great coin in Europe, but he does not cut the mustard in the tight five.

No loss really. I wish him all the best.

My mail says ex-CSU player/coach Dave "Wal" Stuart will fill the breach. Sad news for the Steamers as Don has put a lot of effort into the club over the years, not only in the Seniors, but with the Juniors as well.

I agree with what you are saying there Paarl, that's why I purposely used the term "generally" before describing the NH and SH styles of play. I just feel that the SH refs have a better feel for the game and better empathy with the players as opposed to the officious nature of the NH refs...
