Number of students is often forgotten in these discussions. Nudgee and Churchie are big schools so you often see wider success in sport simply due to the number of students competing for spots. You can always tell when TSS teams are laden with 'imports' as TSS have a lot less students than most...

And hes going to the chiefs anyways isnt he?

Easts should have an improved side next year. I hear they've picked up some handy schoolboy reps who should develop well into the future. Uni will also be strong with a few additions to there academy.

Either that or the other school on the mountain top.... The one that didn't win a game this year.

I was also questioning the competitiveness of such a team, but if it was a mid-week game close to the end of tour against a B-grade touring side I think it would be a good hit out. I think it might pick up a decent tv audience, certainly no less than what fox would expect for a top ITM or...

I have a feeling they might keep playing a bledisode cup game in asia. The other option if they want to play 3 bleds is to alternate between who gets to host the third game. I dont really mind either way, as long as they dont play 4 games which I think is silly.

I thought long and hard about this before posting. I think if you dont say pause you get a situation where they bind on touch and just hope the ref calls 'hit' quickly. Now that begs the question whether or not you need to say touch in the first place, but the way the scrum is being reffed at...

The inevitable post RWC exodus that occurs as the cream of the south chase big money sabbaticals in Europe creates an interesting opportunity for Australian rugby. In the past the Irish have assembled a barbarian style XV (the "Exiles") made up of Irish players playing abroad, to play the...

Should be: Crouch, Touch, Pause, then "Hit" or "Pack".

Melbourne team in the shute shield... Can it be done?

He just speaks nudgee.

I came down in the last shower....can someone enlighten me as to who said coach is, and who he (she?) coaches....

I use to read his blog religiously. It it always nice to read the ramblings of a man who tells it like it is. But fuck me it was a terribly designed eyesore of a blog. Im not saying I could do much better, but I always though it was such a shame his briliant ramblings were so poorly...

AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper)>Smith Mils>Kurtley

I smiled a bit when I read the team list. I've got a feeling its all coming together, the pack looks fucking decent, I like chiz over mumm, and I'm glad they went with slipper over Ma'afu. Glad to see deans actually picking a proper outside back on the bench as well. Add TPN, Horwill, Palu...

A very strong WP team if I may say so. Reading this thread just makes me sad that australia can not produce a competition stooped in such history and prestige. Should be a cracking game this weekend.

Chris satuia and Curtis Browning will be back next year. Sam Rieser is the youngest in the team and could play 2 more years, yet he is about to finish grade 12. Dont know about the NSW boys.

While I'd be carefull not to dish it out to much to schoolboys, I agree with alot of what you have said spewn.

Firstly, there's a difference between being a good defender and being a good tackler. Secondly, I dont neccissarily think he should have been dropped, I just think he should have passed the ball when it was the right option, ffs he's only a schoolboy he has time to develop a passing game and...

People arnt bagging him cause hes bad, they're bagging him cause he did'nt pass the ball or make the tackles which had massive effects on the aussie attack and defence. I thought the backline defense was poor, particularly 10,12,13 and to a lesser extent 14. They often missed the first tackle...
