Definite knock on.....this should be a try then..... Edit: Try NOT awarded - there is a God!

rickety knees - hello rickety & welcome! I'm watching us play the soap dodgers at the moment & saw your post. I've been on a bit of a G&GR hiatus at the moment as I've had a bit of stuff going on but I will get around to a better comment soon. There certainly has been a lot of movement in both...

Sounds good Slim. I'll watch bits & pieces of the Wallabies game so I avoid any overload of major stress. I've already suffered enough watching Australia's bowling attack in the cricket.

I had a really bad feeling about this game so stayed in bed. I take it from the comments I should stay away from watching the replay coming on now?

We have a female ref here in Newcastle who ref's men's & women's games. I call her "Ma'am" which was drilled into me from my time in cargos. As a former team mate she hates it but I think it is the best one. I'd ask before the game just to be sure.

I have finally got around to doing a write up on Byron bay 2012 for the women's. I have left some of the details out (to maintain some kind of dignity) but the bulk of the experience is here: Playing wise - we (Harps) were to play Arongatahi NZ, Norths Savages, SCU Women's in the pool rounds...

Good points. You can buy better facilities & personnel but you can't buy passion & will to win. Nice to hear Easts are building but yes they'll have to get a move on. Just a side note. There has also been rumours that Lake Macquarie women's will be back next year. This is great news for the...

Disagree to some extent Bruce. Look at the recent article on Todd Louden in the Herald. http://www.theherald.com.au/story/522524/louden-finds-home-among-wanderers/?cs=306 It is made clear that he has a business & another one on the way that is providing him income. He still does a Rugby...

YES!!! Well done Nathan Sharpe!!!! John Eales Medal 2012.

True that would have been nice this time around too but at the same time I like how plain the Rugby awards are in comparison to the tarted up versions the AFL & NRL have.

Shapie is the peoples choice! Edit: Beat me to it Jarse!

I'd love to see Sharpe or Hooper get the John Eales medal. Hooper just got himself the Rookie award!

Some off-season news. Former Syd Uni coach Todd Louden will be coaching the Wanderers. Gutted for Newcastle Uni - I had been involved in a training sessions at Uni with Todd & I had the feeling he was coming to us. Oh well, given the general dislike of Syd Uni it looks like Louden wants to be...

BYRON BAY 7's Some women's 7's Rugby action this weekend (along with the boys of course). At Byron Bay. Yours truly will be going along & as Newcastle Uni did not organise a team this year I will be playing for the Hamilton Harps who kindly let me & x2 other Uni girls come along. Byron bay...

On the announcement that Ben Alexander is injured my Ma says "Are we made of Jello?". I'd like to know. I suspect we are. On the idea that the AB's are perhaps vulnerable - that is just rubbish IMHO. They are going for that record. I hate losing & the heart always says Wallabies but the ABs...

You must be in therapy - I would be ;)

Send it back to Adelaide. That was the only Rugby the poor bastards got (internationally anyway).

Anyone ever says to me "hey don't kick it its 7's!" I'll just respond with "well, it works for Fiji - pretty much every time, so why not?" :D True that on the skills p.tah you can't teach what they do.

Yay!!! Congratulations FIJI!!! :)

I've read the whole post a few times & maybe I just keep missing something but my understanding of this is if you put up a "Suggested Thread" in the "Suggested Thread" section it is locked from anyone else posting on it till the "Thread starter" group has checked it out then given it the ok. Is...
