Bit of sledging is fun, but back to rugby boys - wrong alliace or wrong name, lets get back on rugby.

I don't doubt that it is, the Marlins and the Rats have a very strong sevens focus and compete at a high level in the pre season comps. Manly has had players in & training with the sevens / floating around the squad for a while now. Rats also likewise and had Boyd Killingworth stepped up this...

So who are the players? The players who start their 7s in Feb, then play Shute, then pay NRC then play the summer sevens before pre season starts in the guest half of Jan. I like the idea but think this thread needs to change - improve promote existing sevens.

Love it a Warstag supporter - i was to slow it got fixed

Thats right - same weekend as the Lake Mac 7's - i new in conflicted with one of the existing/

Maybe they're sticking with Crescent Belly - makes for a great weekend away to kick start the season. It surprised me to

I hate being negative. One of the things that makes 7's great, is the full day carnival atmosphere - not a one off game. How profitable is the NRC at present? Is NSW going from 4 teams to 2? The travel to make this work would be huge? Definately not having a crack at the contributions here as...

As i know you are - all for the better growth of rugby. I see this as a great idea but gee allot of challenges.

Interesting thread - this one. Sevens has been around for a long time, and has become more prominent over the recent years. I've had a ball in Feb travelling up and down the coast with my little one. The pre season 7's involves some top quality games over the month of Feb, with some...

What a way to kick start rugby season - a weekend of sevens that also involves some of the clubs. Last time i saw International sevens like this was way back when Concord use to be our # 1 oval.

Picked it, knew you weren't in OZ - and Kiwi with rugby withdrawal symptoms. You'll have fun, get frustrated, and always come back for more here.

I'm a fan of social media as it provides information. Hard work is still what provides the return and allows it to work though. I have seen so many people think great have a face book account, or even some excellent web presence and things will happen - and it doesn't.

Any way, great contributions welcome on board - where are you based?

They've done a bit of this with the Sydney Sevens, a number of clubs are fielding teams on the same day to kick start the 7s season. I believe the ARU had considerable involvement in this. This weekend conflicted with Crescent Head which was often a great trip away to kick start the new season...

Yes and there are comps already in place for these people, it is a case of lifting there profile.

True but the national NZ 7's team that made the trip for the Central Coast Sevens this year didn't make the final - pointing this out to show that some of the existing comps are pretty strong. http://centralcoastsevens.com.au/ As I said - like the idea, there are allot of existing comps that...

There are allot of weekend sevens comps already in place - some more prestigious than others. Like the thought but implementing is a whole other box and dice.

That's great, the bigger that list gets the better it is for rugby.

Yes as TOCC said above.
