Too good to not share;

It falls to the front row, I'd guess, but that selection policy almost demands Sio.

Sio had to go. Even if he is better than Slipper (marginal call in the last two years), you have to play to the ref a bit and this may well save us six points. Disagree with dropping him entirely, and definitely think Holmes should have stayed on at tighthead. Carter is in to win the lineouts...

And I had the nerve to call you out on it; nice pick, mate!

Playing against the Brumbies though, that's a bridge too far.

I'd like to formally congratulate the Reds on breaking my heart with two signing so far.

JID uses PD as the first tiebreaker, so Royals are third, Eagles are fourth. Also, I think you've fallen into the same trap I did after the first Owls-Wests game, Wests are deceptively good against a team that is off its game for whatever reason, but still not good enough to win. I won't be...

If there's one thing Larkham knows, it's inside backs. The improvements in both To'omua's and Lealiifano's games since he joined the coaching staff in 2011 are almost certainly due to his presence.

It's the first time I've heard specific criticisms of him, and I've only seen him twice so I'm not the best judge, but I'll keep an eye out for those things the next time I see him. I think the best three are Morris, Hogan, and Hagan, but I'd pick out Rahilly as the black-horse option for...

I think the issue here is that there's no effort in being constructive or helpful, it's mostly a scream into the void (and an offensive one at that). But this call for less PC comments is exactly why we laugh at Genia's post-match interviews and love people like Sharpe. If he had said something...

On the goalkicking, despite the stats being pretty good for both Foley and Lealiifano this year, I don't really have confidence in either of them. A few weeks ago, Lilo was on 86%, but then the game in Melbourne happens and it makes you wonder if he's been getting lots of kicks from in front...

Yeah, I was under the impression that it was just an intern or something, but to see it was from the President got the blood boiling. I remember an article talking about how the Brumbies' deficit has been more-or-less equal to their spending on club rugby for the last ten years; how does the...

I'm willing to bet that Queanbeyan could go into the finals in 1st place on their form + ability (not that it helps much when you end up facing Vikings at Vikings anyway). That clash will be big for the Seconds too, it would put them above the Vikings after their byes.

Brief follow up on the Easts comments; still stand by everything I said, he's apologised, still not happy but it's not a witch hunt. Hope that Nelson didn't take any of it to heart.

I just checked the draw, there's only one more game this season with the Whites outside Queanbeyan! I haven't made it to Campese Oval this year, maybe the Vikings game in round 12 will be the one. They've definitely been the most enjoyable to watch this season.

As a neutral, I thought it was a great game! Whites backline were dominant all game, and they caused absolute chaos the second they got behind the Owls defensive line. The scrums were even, and for the first hour the lineouts were too, but then Whites caught on to the fact that Owls only...

Now that's just a bridge too far. The first thing to bring up is always rule 6.A.4: - a.) The referee is the sole judge of fact and of Law during a match. I think we, as fans, like to get caught up in the idea that refs have a bias that will decide the game one way or another, but when we sit...

I think that, assuming no injuries, our options at 12 are Coleman, Dargaville, Jackson-Hope, and Lilo (I'm mentioning him because he can, but ruling him out immediately). Both Coleman and Dargaville are like another Mark Bartholomeusz for us in terms of cover, but they're wingers who happen to...

Quick shot at predictions; Royals-Easts: Royals are a defensive juggernaut and Easts will struggle to break through. Since Royals like to counter-attack as soon as they get the ball, Easts lack of speed in the transition will be exploited. Royals by fifteen. Owls-Whites: Owls have been...

I think his time in 2nd grade was mostly a development thing. When he was 17, he was going to play for the Colts, but was a year too young, so instead has been playing in Seconds. No idea how he ended up at the Stars while we played Iona (no offence to the guy). I thought that Pat Leafa going...
