How do the GPS cognoscenti rate this year's Churchie team with the BSHS team of 2009? .

He was outstanding for Brisbane City v the Rays in the TV game last Thursday. http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/brisbane-outshines-rays/ Not saying he's in front of more experienced players, mind. .

There's some useful players named in here and it's good to see that few are ineligible for Aus, which doesn't waste spots. Peni Ravai is the only one I spotted. It would be interesting to see a second list going in this thread in concert with the main one. Based on performances in the NRC...

Yeah - the same bloke; they parked him on the wing. He took the last conversion if I remember right. .

Let's not talk about ethnicity, religion, or gender stuff any more.

Thanks DB. I'll have my ritual McDonalds-before-Brookie-match earlier. Boy there will be some scrubbers in the Baas if they can't make any of the four Sydney NRC teams. .

In the movie the Brando character complained to his elder brother that he could have been a contender for a boxing title had he (the brother) not arranged for him to throw a fight. But that's too easy for someone who has seen the movie a few times - is that what you meant? .

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ He acted tough - could have been a contender. .

I see that Matt Giteau has been named as Top 14 Player of the year for 2013/14. Why they make this award when the 2014/15 competition is well underway is weird, but he won it. My vote would have gone to Steffon Armitage (also from Toulon) who was European Player of the Year - for Heineken...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ They would target Big Willie down the blindside of scrums. He has been mentioned also a number 8. He would have trouble getting to the right hand side of a scrum to defend on a wheel; even a slight one. They would target him on the right hand side of the field (of Willie's...

And Fitzgerald - and wrong anyway - four or five is more like it. The Reds?? er..um..er Looking forward to seeing Quade Copper play at the ground tomorrow night in the NRC. I think he'll drag a few more to Brookie also. .

Good spotting Forcefield that is thinking outside the box.

Some old buggers type McNamara instead of McCalman. Kieran Read was always good for me to trip up on until I got a good memory trick. .

Present i.e. this year. Manu Sutherland (Aus Schools selector and ARU Under 20s clipboarder) has been at their games also. .

^^^^^^^^ These matters mentioned by Braveheart and HJ are right. As one has whanged on about before: it is not good that rugby outside of the big rugby schools in Sydney (for example) has marginalised junior rugby outside the system but in the real world it is not going to change. And to...

Any curtain raiser that you know of DB ?

I think what I wrote was what Owens said, or my interpretation of what he said. But I was traumatised at the time. .

I meant what was in the pdf thingy in your post 573. .

^^^^^^ Crikey - I thought it strange that the Kellaway twins would play for different clubs but didn't twig that there were so many wrong. I wondered that perhaps they got a spreadsheet wrong and one column was out of whack, but that doesn't answer. .

Yeah the Hooper carding didn't look right because of the law of physics. They used to have this problem in the NFL/AFL when I first starting working in the USA way back in the day before the merge. People were piling into the kicker after the attempted punt or field goal attempt. They...
