    Waratahs 2015

    Allan A, who was in the Oz U20s for three years is going to be a considerable player - and he's a tighthead prop. Oops this is the Tahs thread. The Tahs have had brother Mike, who is bigger and older and is a loosehead prop, training with them. He played in their Gen Blue (2nds) team - and...

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2014

    As HJ indicated there is a special thread for bias in selections etc. Be aware that the NSW Schools selectors pick the boys for the two NSW teams. The ARU guys, like Manu Sutherland, pick the Combined States side independent of the NSW selectors once they know who is in the NSW sides. They...

    Selection politics and bias, Gold Squads unfairness etc.

    Just bringing this thread to the top so people notice it and can use it during the selection season to let off steam without ruining threads that talk about the rugby. .

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2014

    Sorry. I arrived after the start of the game and was organising myself with BBQ breakfast and talking with some cronies during the match and shooting the breeze. Because I missed the start I didn't think I could do it justice. .

    CAS Rugby 2014

    The match reports for the CAS v ISA game (and other matches) were a bit skinny because of the need to report on the Under 20s on the same day and going to test matches, and such. The blog has been updated: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/final-nsw-trial-day/ .

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2014

    Jeremiah N JWL would be the favourite to get the 2 jersey, but Ed Craig (Epping BHS) is a marvelous young hooker and so is Pritchard, albeit now in the GPS IIs. There's some good depth in the NSW hooking department which is more than I can say for the second row. There I would have Petterson...

    Shute Shield 2014

    A wonderful post Snakey (and this is from a Rats fan). I have a sneaky regard for the Marlins setup and there is some glimmering that the Rats are getting their act together too. I think we need more clubs doing what the Marlins are doing now and what Southern Districts started a couple of...

    CAS Rugby 2014

    OK let's stop talking about the refereeing. There is nothing like discussing refereeing, and fighting on the field, to bring down the tone of a thread in a schoolboy rugby forum. Everybody is so earnest about it but it's better to talk about the rugby. ,

    NSW AAGPS Rugby 2014

    Joeys very good in the backs in both the Ones and the Twos but the Ones forwards weren't so good against the pick and goes, and mauls. The Shore Ones were well-drilled in those departments but neither their Ones or Twos had the flair in their backs to build on what their forwards did. Agree...

    2014 IRB Junior World Championship – New Zealand

    Apparently hooker Kaitu'u is injured and is home already. There are two hookers there still, Scoble and Vea, but as I have said a few time in the forums, Sandell threw to the lineout sometimes for Joeys in 2012. He would be cover for hooker and the four props. Maybe the coaches read Green...

    CAS Rugby 2014

    I need some reports on: Barker v Cranbrook Waverley v Knox for the CAS blog So if any budding writers are going to these games please do a match report kind of post and I may lift it, or part of it, for the blog. It doesn't have to be as thorough as the reports are in the blog normally...

    Wallabies v France - June 14 Etihad Stadium

    It is a better team: they should lose by less. PSA took a gamble on bringing both Dusautor, who was injured in January, and Nyanga who was injured not much later and could play only two games of 6N. And now he is starting both. They have played since their return but only for a few hours...

    2014 IRB Junior World Championship – New Zealand

    I don't. Head Coach Adrian Thompson (a selector) told me he was impressed by him as early as the Adelaide tournament (to choose the Combined States team) and Thompson is not the kind of guy that would be interested rugby politics. Can't see any of the alternatives you mentioned as being...

    2014 IRB Junior World Championship – New Zealand

    And a great post. Well done to your boys and good luck to them in the semi. How about doing a report on the semi for a blog and while you are at it - the other one too. Everybody agree?? .
