    NRC 2015 - the home stretch

    UC Vikings (1st, 24pts): Melbourne Rising (H), Brisbane City (H), QLD Country (A) The undefeated Vikings are set to claim a home semi final, and will be well prepared for finals footy, with two fairly tough fixtures at home against the Rising and Brisbane, and then an away game against the...

    Scrum Talk

    NZ Herald have run with the England Scrum Cheating theory as well. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=11521968 Pythagoras Marler seems to have bought into the dialogue as well. What guidance could he be seeking from Jonathan Kaplan?

    RWC: FIJ v WAL (Millenium): POOL A

    Life is full of serendipity. The Soap Dodgers won Bill when we hosted the RWC in 2003. Karma says we will when they host it.

    RWC: FIJ v WAL (Millenium): POOL A

    As much as I want to see the Fijians win this match as the underdog, my dislike for the arrogant Colonial Masters attitude of the Soap Dodgers means that the Boyos must win to make sure then the Orcs are ejected from the World Cup at the pool stage, as a minnow just like the Cricket World Cup...

    ^^ I guess Burgess doesn't know how to cheat properly at scrum time yet. Keep him out with the hairdressers until he is inducted properly.

    QLD Colts - 2016

    The SRU Player points cap has its limitations but a similar sort of thing may be worth considering for QPR, and QPR colts to try and spread the talent a little more equally.

    QLD Colts - 2016

    Ha ha ha ha, 78 points in "Sydney speak". Most First Grade teams in Shute Shield would get nowhere where near 78 Player Points. Did the UQ All Stars win this year? By comparison the Sydney 2015 Premiers (Sydney Uni) points in the GF were: 1. Bliss - 1 2. Fainga - 1 3. Ridley - 2 4. Schwager...

    QLD Colts - 2016

    Some clubs down our way did similar "back in the day", and allegedly even had Schoolboy Reps playing in Colts 3rds (behind Aust Schoolboys in Colts 1 and Colts 2s). The Pulveriser's own lad (former Aust Schoolboy) has recently changed clubs in order to get a gig playing Premier Grade rather...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2015

    ^^^ Yeah that was a bit of a surprise (on paper). While he was nominated as a winger, he spent a lot of time at Fullback, with Ngamanu (and others) filling in at wing.

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    Some of the Taffy Gaggerlanders take offence to some of my more colourful names for Team Cymru, so I thought I'd give the "Red Devils" a burl. Epic fail by me. :oops:

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    What are you expecting? This is the Orcs vs the Colonial Upstarts match thread @Dai Bando. Of course we are going to discuss the Soap Dodgers cheating at scrum time. Credit is being given to the Welsh in the Match threads for the Boyo's games. On the basis that a win by your lot vs Fiji...

    QLD Colts - 2016

    Is there any sort of cap system in place to prevent the warehousing of talent by the "richer" clubs in QPR Colts? While a little imperfect, in Sydney the Colts 1's are allowed to field a team worth 40 points with Aust Schoolboys being worth 6 points, State Reps being 4 points each, with...

    Western Force - 2016

    WTF are your talent scouts and High Performance Development Managers doing? http://m.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/rugby/brumbies-to-sign-super-boot-nick-jooste-to-super-rugby-contract-while-18-year-old-is-still-at-school/story-fnlhav6i-1227549269675 I didn't realise that there is a production...

    Brumbies 2016

    ^^^ Inspired decision by the Ponies, but it makes you wonder WTF is happening in Perth. It is not as if they have a production line of Pro quality players coming through their junior club/school system. Having seen him in action at Schoolboy Nationals and NRC, I don't think he will let you...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2015

    Not wanted by the ASRU selectors initially, others have seen value in the Jooster. Fortunately the ASRU selectors have woken up. Nick Jooste has been signed to the Brumbies, joining Kurtley Beale, Quade Cooper, James O’Connor, Luke Jones and Chris Feauai-Sautia on the list of Australian Super...

    RWC: AUS v ENG (Twickenham): POOL A; 6am (AEDT) Sunday 4 October

    I just hope that Pythagoras Marler can manage to drive straight on the way home after the game, because there is scant evidence of that happening during the game. #ScrumStraightJoe #WorseThanInvisibleMcCaw I'm not an alcoholic, I only drink when the English scrum illegally.
