You're not wrong that its parra-centric, it also contains blatant lies. I was more than happy to not bring up the details & just say Parra deserved their win, which they did, but when a report like this throws shit at predominately Newcastle teams I feel abliged to defend our honour even if it...

Good point Rob is a game breaker. I wouldnt mention Rob Horne & the word in bold in your quote or any related word to that word in bold in the same sentence though as I think it brings him bad luck. I'm a Rob Horne fan so I'm just sending nothing but good karma his way. Groovy man.

I cant believe the Reds are $2.25 at the Tab for the straight out win, no margins. I may have to get on it. I agree with Ash. I have a soft spot for players that have had to slog it out extra hard to get opportunities (I love the quality of determination & persistance in a player) so for that I...

Well I think the paper will at least get one of those right with the Crusaders :D But I do agree that if they enjoy their time at the Reds then we should expect to see them remain. IMO Anthony & Saia can still gain much & provide much for the Reds by staying there under link, regardless of what...

Must've been on the other side of the field as I didnt see it. I did see one girl get flattened & not get up immediately but then do a super big run shortly after so I dont think it was her. If I hear of anything approaching the season (in terms of big injuries) I'll update here but I'm sure...

(report on CH7's, Just copying my comment info from the 7's Competition thread) It was the Manly Marlins who won the mens. I'd also mention a big hats off to Inverell mens side who travelled to CH that morning apparently and had the crappest of draws in concerns to recovery time. Our Newcastle...

It was the Manly Marlins who won the mens. I'd also mention a big hats off to Inverell mens side who travelled to CH that morning apparently and had the crappest of draws in concerns to recovery time. Our Newcastle Uni mens team did not feature in the finals. On the womens side it was Parra &...

Well then turn Olympic 7's into 10's. I disagree that 10's are going to go away, teams are always going to favour 10's over 7's for pre-season hit outs for 15's.

Cant help but have a bit of a chuckle about the sunnybank womens side we played them at Crescent head sevens last year & lets just say they seemed very confident of taking it out. Until we beat them, I was wondering why they werent coming this year ;) (nice girls though). Anyhow, I'd take up the...

Superxv site says.... Woodcock (Blues) is out for the first few rounds, Nonu (Blues) still in Japan (so no injury but wont be around), Messam (Chiefs) may be out for rd1 at least, McCaw (Crusaders) out for some time, Dan Carter (Crusaders) - on track but may miss early rd's, Guildford...

Correction on Crescent Head sevens womens teams, confirmation of the teams, they are: Uni x2, Wanderers, Merewether-Carlton, Hamilton, Waverly, Parramatta, Tamworth, & Moree.

Ok so I havent had much to update here for a while. Pre-season training still going on at all clubs. It will be sometime until the Herald will put out its overall article to analyse the chances/predictions of mens premier one. I have one article here from the herald talking about the Waratahs...

I wouldnt be too worried about articles like that, our second rower/main jumper is a ballet dancer too & she is very good in the air. Ballet is super hard too! I played Winger from 16yr old-20yr old then Flanker (with occational stints at Prop or Second row) up until now (late twenties). I...

I only just saw the Fox news alert which says at least 6 months on Lachie , extensive tendon damage, will undergo surgery Wed. Terrible news for Lachie & the Tahs.

Reds sneak home? Werent they ahead of the Brums all game? Hard to assess on twitter feed & reports that may be somewhat not the whole story. At any rate its an early game, sounds like good signs for both teams. AC injuries are not good but hopefully for Moore its a low grade.

Devastating for the Brumbies if Moore is seriously hurt.

I cant sleep so I've been doing some reading across the threads & came across this, here is an article from a local Rugby player who had to have his C5 & C6 fused. I know him through Rugby & actually play Rugby with his sister. He was in a neck brace for quite some time & there were fears he'd...

This is what I'm constantly telling people everytime they refer to Sydney like its ALL OF NSW. Newcastle is the place to be!:D I've been to Brissy, Canberra, Sydney, Perth. All have pos & negs. Have yet to go to Adelaide or Melbourne. Mum has been to Melbourne & loved it, aside from the AFL...

Thanks Spooony, its working now without it (using Google Chrome) but I will keep this in mind for future times if it happens again.

It does sound like a good idea except for those of us playing at crescent head Rugby 7's on the 18th of Feb!
