    EOYT 2016 - Possibles, probables and general banter

    I disagree, Forget about how he went as a kid. He's playing men now,and not yet excelling. Pick him after he starts to excel.

    EOYT 2016 - Possibles, probables and general banter

    Seriously, if our playing stocks ever got to a level that he is a viable choice at 10, then we are doomed for a generation. The much vaunted pathway program continues to crank out 10's with slow feet,slower brains and sub par kicking games. Godwin has been adequate, and nothing more in NRC...

    EOYT 2016 - Possibles, probables and general banter

    If he has been promised a starting jumper on this tour I would agree wholeheartedly. But a seat on a plane with a touring party that includes Godwin, not so much.

    NRC 2016 - Grand Final - NSW Country Eagles vs Perth Spirit

    That's a little ridiculous. Go watch club cricket, no admission charge and not even wives & girlfriends turn up.

    Having walked past the sheds after a gen blue game. It was behind closed doors and you could here it a long way away. So I'd suggest what you see is what you get.

    Which clubs are the Class of 2016 going to?

    Rabbitohs seem to sign more Rugby schoolboys than the Tahs, Let's hope he does a Simone and cones back after 20's

    I don't think the dual roles would be nearly as big an issue if the 'right people' we're doing it. There are huge question marks about the calibre of his assistants IMO. Whilst you should always be looking at ways to improve, I don't think the sum of the parts are greater then the whole ATM,so...

    Tier 3.5 - An Alternative NRC

    Great example. What happens next year? No more 20's, so is it cones or club if he can't crack it for a jersey?

    Tier 3.5 - An Alternative NRC

    It's both. Watch and learn from the best, go back to club footy to learn how to implement it. Crawl before you walk. Walk before you run.

    Tier 3.5 - An Alternative NRC

    They do actually train with the team each week. If you are right about the tight 5,how are they ever awarded MOM ??? I actually believe that one of the tight 5 is superior to his team mates it sticks out like dogs balls. Back 3 players still get plenty of opportunities from kick returns. There...

    Tier 3.5 - An Alternative NRC

    Most SS diehards don't support this rebel comp that will compete with NRC. But they still see the SS as being an important part of the fabric of the game. For those that diss it,as being a low level amateur comp, they should come down,watch a few games and play pick the pro. There are a dozen...

    Tier 3.5 - An Alternative NRC

    The only reason to kick with your weaker foot is because you are under pressure on your good foot! Nowhere have I suggested kiwis neglect gym work. The problem with our program is that they are picking winners at 16, so they are all strong ball runners,good in contact. There are no ball...

    Tier 3.5 - An Alternative NRC

    So organised defence stops you from kicking from each foot? If anything less time makes versatility more important. Players are better tacklers,and they are much stronger at the breakdown,cos that's all they practise in their high performance squads. the kiwis can do all these impossible...

    Tier 3.5 - An Alternative NRC

    bullshit. How many super level 10's or 15's can kick with either foot? How many 20 years ago? How many super level 10's can ball play? most could 20 years ago. They should be second nature to someone who has been in a high performance environment since he was 16. So maybe the pathway is not...

    I don't understand why you have a problem, when people are perplexed that the ARU report says $2M & the CEO says $9M. The published report is an extract,the ARU says the detailed report is available upon request at no charge. Maybe we should all get the detailed report to see if the further and...

    NRC 2016 - Grand Final - NSW Country Eagles vs Perth Spirit

    if Coleman had done it 10 minutes earlier Country win. For the first time all game,Country were getting over the ad line with ease. Adams played well in surprisingly limited opportunities for country.

    The consolidated entity includes the rebels figures as the ARU controlled them for that period. So expenses were those of the ARU plus expenses for Rebels. The parent entity is the expenses of ARU only So you should only count the $2.3 once. I'm not sure how many times Bill counts it :)

    Rugby 7s general chat

    Gold 1's just had their pants pulled down by a thrown together team from Fiji. Andy Friend couldnt train a pig to be dirty, how his contract was extended before he failed in Rio is poor management from ARU.

    Cmon, You can't hold Papworth responsible for the health of his competitors. I never heard Alex Ferguson criticised (or his prez) because Reading or Aston Villa were poo. In any event, Parra are not whipping boys. Look at the SS ladder, they won 5 & got 6? <7 bonus points
