You are not far off the mark. Typically there have only been a couple of NSW U20s (or Aus U20s from NSW, if you want to go back further in history, recognising that State U20 teams in the context of the Aust U20 pathway is only in its 3rd iteration this year) that have had any previous Shute...

Current Governor General, General Sir Peter Cosgrove, installed Rugby Goal Posts at Victoria Barracks in Sydney when he was in charge there circa 2000. Since then the Waratahs and Wallabies have trained there from time to time, and inter-service matches have also been played in front of the...

Kiama Showgrounds, where they hold the Kiama Sevens (This years version will be held on Feb 27 2016), and home of Kiama Rugby Club is a pretty nice spot.

OK lets end the he said, they said about Crowd/Coaches/Player behaviour. It will end in tears. "Reporting" poor behaviour by players, supporters, coaches, spectators or match officials deep inside G&GR forums will not change one thing, and it only ends up in arguments. If you are concerned...

Probably viewed as picturesque by the New Plymouth Boys High School folk. Visiting teams may not share the same opinion.

Don't know where this one is but it looks like it is somewhere around Queenstown NZ. That is why they build stadia with a roof on it in Dunedin.

The Oval in the 'Naki has a pretty good backdrop. Currently Yarrows Stadium but previously known by the more pragmatic kiwi name of Rugby Park. Can't wait to see @Dismal Pillock's screen shots of Rugby Park, Pitcairn Is.

This sounds like the $1m Club Rugby Competition that was being bandied around by Livingstone et al in 2012. http://www.news.com.au/national/nsw-act/potential-1-million-rugby-union-revolution-led-by-balmain-rugby-club-channel-10-and-fox-sports/story-fndo4bst-1226466173702

How would the Overseas Wallabies XV go against the Overseas NZRT XV in a theoretical Overseas Bledisloe Cup clash?

That is probably a good idea but that local arrangement needs to be documented somewhere to prevent confusion, particularly if the entertainers are charging folks for the privilege of watching the entertainment. The punters have emotional energy invested in the supporting their team, and they...

A Club Working Bee with a sausage sanger to finish. Grass Roots rugby at its best, ... ... ... as it should be. Has the council done anything to improve the dilapidated state of the roof on the clubhouse?

Some reposts from another thread that deserve some oxygen on this thread:

Yes. This thread should discuss anything and everything U20 related, up to and including the 2016 Junior World Cup (or whatever is the name this year) including trials for state teams, overseas teams, the Oceania tournament etc. Based on past seasons, there would be insufficient banter to...

^^^ Rumour has it that MSW have lost so many 10's that Tim Rapp had put a call through to see if Steven Bradbury was from the "Born in or before 1996" age group. Any more recent news from the Vics U20's? I seem to recall @Uncle Joe posting that there was a trial planned between the Vics & the...

It seems 2016 NSW U20 Flyhalfs called Jack may be cursed. Has Jack Maddocks similarly succumbed to that curse, or he is doing his best not to tempt fate with the Jinx Fairies by staying well clear of that position. Edit: Re Syd Uni in Wagga: Nothing on their web site but this has been posted...

^^^ Are the U20 6N's streamed, youtubed or shown on Foxtel, ESPN or something @Highlander35?
