This situation is exactly the reason that we need a properly structured 7's season in Australia. We need to have somewhere for coaches and players to develop their skills. There are enough regular competitions for this to happen. The ARU has to provide some structure if they want this to be a...

Apparently moving to Sydney wasn't what O'Connor wanted to do. His family live on the Sunny Coast. The timing couldn't be much worse. 2 years out from the Olympics and with no one of note to take over. I'm not keen on an outsider. I guess you'd have to look at the Club teams that have been...

Just as Easts have really come on under former Dragon Tim Sampson. ;)

As you should be SOTG. The fact is they are former Tigers as they no longer play for the Club. If Ben Meehan has a great season this year at the Rebels he will be a former Dragon.

If you're claiming Mowen then Butler has to be a Breaker. In fact they are both former Tigers now.

He's on the big money at Uni (joke for those on the Premier Rugby thread). Employed by the Club as Rugby Manager.

And Premier Rugby is 5th tier.

I thought Purce and I were discussing the most interesting topic so far on this thread.

Anyone else find it strange that the QRU will pay Bartercard $$ to clubs but don't accept them?

Talk like a Pirate Day if I recall correctly.

He could consider himself a back now? I knew he was in Samoa for a funeral but must have decided to return to Brisbane.

Purce can you post the link. Just had a look on the site and couldn't find them, most likely in front of me but my eye site isn't what it was. On another point are there big plans for a 10 year reunion for the greatest team the Heavies have ever produced, the 2004 3rd grade Premiership winning...

Link is that you?

Wasn't this part of the reason Pat Rafter lived in the Bahamas for most of the year? He wasn't required to pay the higher tax rate for his income.

This is the issue. You can't try and promote a product and build an audience without consistency. The Super Rugby draw can be feast or famine in terms of the draw. Also to get the big numbers of viewers you need to have identifiable brands. If they are showing South African teams the numbers...

Part of the challenge of Colts rugby is to make sure the players you target are still at the club for round 1. The pack mentality that they have also makes this more important. I recall about 6 or 7 years ago the majority of the Sunnybank Colts team rocked up to Easts for training a month...

I think Holmes is greatly underrated, always have. He's in his prime years as a prop and can add some go forward around the field. In my view he offers more than Daley as a prop. I think Owen is coming along nicely and Albert will be a force once he settles into just being a prop.

No idea. I'll be able to report once the games start (at least the home ones).

Is the 10 Jim's Son?

Ballymore is dead as an option for the Reds. As Reg said they need a place that can seat 30K and 50K for the big games.
