    National Rugby Championship 2014

    All good, I'm sure we all want it to work and need to support it. SUni already tick the boxes on and off the field. Recent history on the paddock Randwick simply do not. ARU want it to work so will support it in all ways possible. As a stand alone club i believe they will undoubtedly...

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    I'll jump in quickly - I HAVE NEVER RAISED CONCERN ABOUT RANDWICKS MGMT. With reference to the red above, non Wallabies returning will be parachuted in because the last 2 years suggest they wont compete if they have the same players. Influenced to go there. These players and other reasons...

    ILtW - i meant you above not Without a Station (Edit - I mean you both after reading above). Human bye - i disagree with you here and that is the reason for my concern. ARU want / need to see this succeed, NSWRU want to see this succeed, shit we all do - my concern players may end up playing...

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    @Macca, I'm with ILtW with regards to Randwick in the model that has been floated. That said I was also happy with re modeling the SS & Premier so it was to become the 3T. The The second half of 2012 when it was the Top 6 (that Randwick didn't get a start in) was a perfect example of 3T rugby...

    News letter received yesterdays suggest Manly have some returning from the Dark Side to their colts program.

    Sydney Colts - 2014

    I was hoping the ARU was announcing a colts NRC comp that runs with above.

    Cheers Bruce, I didn't have any doubt who's they play for, i was using an example that most country kids change from country to city over time and fielding a quality team would be difficult and costly if they needed to pull together a team from regional areas.

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    I'm with TWaS - most country folk are city people now, change probably occurs when they start boarding school, or get the scholarship, or maybe later in some cases when they start Uni. @Bruce Ross of last years GF side how many players came from outside of Sydney - Carter, Davidson, Tilse, +...

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    I'm guessing, i thought Gordon has a connection UTS. Interesting all this hype about uni involvement, Dirty Reds got UTS on board all those years ago, and unfortunately politics didn't allow it time and they were relegated for 96 I recall? How many Dirty Reds played in the 97GF, and how many...

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    I agree, and you can only choose the best 3, 4, 5, for NSW - and I think read somewhere that there was 41 expressions of interest nationally??? Is it still 8 or 10 teams? Or is it 10? If it is 3 from NSW, and lets say Uni, Nth Harbor, gee the 3rd is very broad?

    National Rugby Championship 2014

    I'm thinking all these posts suggest 3 or 4 teams in Sydney, and Sydney Uni is causing my problem (I think they deserve to stand alone though). Sth Hbr (Randwick / Easts / Souths) Nth Hbr (Manly / Rats / Norths Gordon) West (Wests / Parr / Penrith / Woods) Uni - it would be a player imbalance...

    3rd tier is back in 2014 [Discontinued]

    But he also said Wallaby laden Sydney Uni, there Dave Dennis and Foley who are not regular starters and sometimes on the bench (+ Izzy) that is not laden.

    3rd tier is back in 2014 [Discontinued]

    I "heard" the same, Terry Smith in yesterday paper suggested that it was because Randwick said they must were green, and must play at Coogee. BUT, was there much cred to his article? I had thought the curator would be a little unhappy with the cricket season getting underway. I had thought the...

    Up Newcastle way, from the central coast comp ( I think)

    3rd tier is back in 2014 [Discontinued]

    But that could simply be a play with words, Uni and Balmain maybe classified as a JV but seriously I don't think any sub district players will be running out on game day. Just the same as I don't see Wicks and UNSW as a JV, gee I hope it is Wicks, Easts, and UNSW (plus southern). It's the...

    And giving the young colts in WA, and VIC, a chance to get exposure against Nsw, and Qld teams.

    I thought I read 41 tenders? Could there be a bolter? I still think their should be a colts team as well. I'd much rather travel and see 2 games than just one, but it would also ensure development.
