I thought they made the finals as well, hence why I posted the rugby news link. I think I also said something along the lines of my beef is not with Randwick, I'm looking to contribute my thoughts on what I think will work for the 3T Macca I enjoy the rugby and i travel on atrocious days link...

That's 3 in row!! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Manly-Marlins-Rugby-Offical-Supporter-Page/108604579221925?hc_location=timeline

I hope the ARU look at Australian Rugby and the growth instead of what appears to be some of the self centered views that are being posted. I thought this 3T was about growth and development of rugby, and not; 1. Having contracted players not even playing because Force / Rebs / possibly...

NO, you can not. Edit / I hope not. How are they going to field a team that can hold the own?

I do not have a beef with Randwick, they played some attractive rugby last year - I am looking at what is good for the 3T. They missed the top 8 last year in the club comp, how possibly could they stand alone in a 3T comp and field a credible team? any answers are welcome? Arrogance, and...

I'm going to wait and see, they have the largest contingent with the junior Tahs, getting more exposure. Lala has gone to the Rebels but last year he spent considerable time with the Aust U20, and most of the final was played without him, and Reece Hodge and we went down by just 1. Couple of...

Looking at the last 10 years how can the ARU be thinking about Rand wick standing alone. But just last year (or should we look at the year before? They finished outside the top 8 last year in a club comp, how are they going to fair in a 3rd Tier? They lost more games than they won They leaked...

A number of them have been training in grade, and Rugby News had a great write up on the number of Manly U20's training with the Tahs.

Pretty much agree on most of your points, my concern with NSW though; How many Tahs are left after Wallabies and Uni are taken away. Bare in mind I dont think there are many Uni players in the Wallaby squad. Randwick - i dont think they should be allowed to stand alone. I didn't think...

Any info on the game?

Or Rebs / Force reimburse part of their ARU Funding they receive that will flow down and no doubt assist them field an NRC team. Sorry, that was being a smart arse - but seriously all parties need to be on board and we should all be rooting for strong teams playing quality rugby. I like the...

I cant comment because I don't know the structure. Nth / Sth sounds sensible though. Only because of the commentary on these threads, could it be because QLD hasn't really shown allot of interest??

Hmmmm, and you could possibly add a couple more as well now.

Uni - the way it reads each NRC team is allowed 15 contracted players, or does that relate to WA, VIC, and ACT only? I thought 8 as well, can live with 10. But i had thought 4 NSW, 3 QLD, I hought that was a better spread.

Hi TWaS, your always fair, and justify your thoughts - cheers. I'm honestly not sure who would be stronger and stuck a post in the 3T thread

At the moment the media has put it out there, for all we know it maybe just to sell papers and create chat and ideas on GAGR. So a Vic side being represented by the best 15 they choose from the Rebels who have been training together since Pre Christmas, and playing at professional level since...

That is a fair question, How many of the Reds are left over after the Wallabies have selected 30? - I'm not sure. Then divide that by 2 teams in QLD how many Reds players each does each team get. Some one raised a silly question, wouldn't it be sill playing against your own players. With 5...

Could be a busy day on GAGR today, I'll turn it off now, and check back later

Initial media suggests the ARU may think differently - but at the moment we are only hearing it through the media.

Good point, quite possibly if you look at all the players as a whole that have graduated through the SS into Super Rugby. With regards to financing - I also think this is possible with the rights structure and following.
