‎"the VRU Board has unanimously decided to advise Boroondara that there will not be a place for them in Premier Division in 2013 and in consequence will adopt a 9-team Premier Division draw for 2013". "Whilst the Board recognised that this will mean that clubs will be given byes in 2013, the...

My tip would be Boroondara as they don't have the junior and colts numbers that Hills have. The street is just people around the rugby scene in Victoria.

Word on the street is that a 9 team comp is happening next year.

Lets get back to the players, who have been the stand outs so far? I saw that 8 and 10 from Vic played well in the first game, how did they go in the 2nd?

These tournaments are definitely an intense week for the referees.

I know that 3 of the referees at this tournament have 1st grade experience in their respective associations.

And when was the last time you put some boots on and walked onto a field with a whistle in your hand?

1 tip tackle 1 tackle in the air 1 grass cutter (no arms tackle) 1 repeat infringements YC They all seem pretty self explanatory to me.

This year I have 4 in the bin for it.

This was a decision the referees made in Vic at about round 4 of this years senior comp and we had seen an increase in them and we reviewed some footage and decided they were dangerous. Not sure what the info to other states has been though.

Not wrapping the arms and it's dangerous play.

It's an automatic YC in Vic for a grass cutter tackle across the board and as it should be. Diving in with the shoulder at someone's knees is a poor act and the player deserves to be sat down.

How have the referees been performing?

Anyone who had watched any of the competition knew that the Cheetahs game would've been a cracker.

A small issue with the Saturday game was after playing/reffing it was difficult to get the the ground with the traffic, having said that I was there before the curtain raiser each game so I can't say I have experienced the 7pm rush.

It's not hard to get there before kick off from the suburbs.

There were quite a few Tongans in the team, plus one or two Kiwis. Pacific Cup is always a great day out.

Steve Walsh will referee this final as well.

Same with the referees one. Where is yours? We are at the metropolitan.

Are you asking if I am Ed? The answer is no, I am not Ed.
