Re: Oz U20 squad Mark Johnson is playing 2nd grade at Gordon I suppose is one of the reasons being behind Peterson and Jones who are both playing first grade Ben Matwijow was also at the U20's camp but missed out he is playing 1st grade at Norths. Damon Anderson similar thinking probably...

Money is not developing these players, the system is. Although the players that are playing in Sydney who were originally from QLD would not be there the majority would still play Club Rugby in Sydney...

Re: Oz U20 squad Dunning, Alexander, Robinson, Fitzpatrick(not a local junior though), Broughton - Rouse, Longbottom(Not a local junior), Jeremy Paul, Rod Moore, Bill Young - anyone else I have missed over the last 10-15 years?

I keep ignoring what? In my above quoted post I clearly stated ' I mean the Brumbies have already been given a leg up by taking over a part of the NSW development system' Should I call it the Brumbies or should I call it Randwick/Southern Districts?

Re: Oz S15 Squads 2011 Cam Mitchell QLD? Get off your high horse!

Bernard Foley Uni 5/8 was playing 3rd grade last weekend I am pretty sure?

All I can say it needs a lot of work. What reward do states like NSW & QLD get when they produce the majority of these juniors & yet get them pilfered by other states in NSW's case the Brumbies mainly & in QLD's case the Force. This could possibly lead to the weaker junior development states...

Norths aren't as well funded as a few years ago when they had quite a few good years(had guys like Ben Alexander etc). Probably due to the Cabana Bar not being as new on the market and not quite as popular anymore. Obviously a few incentives would have been included in the deal & you would have...

Yanuyanatawa - Went to school in Fiji 4. Dave Dennis, - Kings Ben McCalman - Kinross Jacob Taylor - Canberra Grammar(Pretty sure)

I would disagree with your first comment about a higher percentage of CHS kids, these numbers are actually dwindling, let's just say I know quite a few who were embaressed at the side Combined High Schools put out last season. But yes I suppose you are correct the blokes that are playing CHS...

Re: Oz U20 squad Some handy bloodlines at the Pirates with Michael Ala'alatoa, Vili's son also playing! At the moment I wouldn't call the West Harbour Front Row a bad front row at all with the Maafu's but they do like to produce a front rower. Rodney Blake etc. Sio's done well to get himself...

Now let me just say this - Is the points system bringing Uni back to the pack? As this hasn't happened(the start Uni have had) for the last few seasons? Obviously it will take about a decade to have a full effect with Uni also not being as dominant in 1st Grade Colts, looking at it less of the...

Did this bloke end up playing in Aus Gagger?

Re: Oz U20 squad Sills has played the last two weeks for Randwick first game a full game in 2nd grade and a run off the bench in 1st grade, 2nd grade full game in 1st grade.

Re: Oz U20 squad Well he is 20 for a good couple months after the tournament has started? He was apart of the schoolboy system two seasons ago?

Re: Rebels deadline ends, update here on what you hear. If you want to keep up to date with most of Sydney Club Rugby news go here - http://www.rugbynews.org/ The Weekly issues are fantastic all team lists for all grades as well as wrap ups/previews and whispers.

Not surprised Holmes was at Eastwood when Hickey coached?

Re: Oz U20 squad Greg Jeloudev picked ahead of Clinton Sills? Sills was ahead of Jeloudev at Uni last year and is playing 1st Grade while Jeloudev is still playing 1st grade colts. And fyi I am a Kings boy so no bias here!

Re: Rebels deadline ends, update here on what you hear. Playing second row for West Harbour at this point in time.

The thing I would be interested in is what the hell happened to second grade on the weekend? Having a team playing second grade with the following experienced first graders playing Tuala, Gluth, Preston, Wade etc. And to get beaten by 15 points!? What did you think TG?
