    Selection politics and bias, Gold Squads unfairness etc.

    Bump. Post here if you feel the State Squad Selectors have worse eyesight and more bias than the referees, who we all know are out to get you and rob your school, your son, your son's school, and/or your son's school association of a deserved victory and/or a State Rep Jumper.

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2015

    The ground announcer said that the selected players will be rung tonight. Names will be in the papers tomorrow. The Shadow squad was mentioned, and not sure if they said it would be in the papers but IIRC they have done so in the past. Medicals assessments/reviews will be conducted at...

    Coaching Options for Qld Rugby

    Whispers circulating that there may have been an important meeting at Ballymore late today. No intel if it ended in tears or smiles.

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2015

    For at least the last 3 years IIRC. Introduced to counter the possibility that some clubs would warehouse "talent" in Colts 3 (no points cap), then come off the bench for the 2's (and 1's) as a non-fresh reserve to circumvent the points cap limitation. Player Points for a reserve considered...

    Shute Shield 2015

    Weather forecast is not looking too good. I suspect that we may have a repeat of Rounds 3 or 7 with more than 1 oval closed by Council, or just restricted to First Grade only. Games are at: TG Millner - at least 2nds and 1sts will be on regardless, if not all grades. 3's and 4's may be moved...

    Sydney Colts - 2015

    Weather forecast is not looking too good. I suspect that we may have a repeat of Rounds 3 or 7 with more than 1 oval closed by Council. Hugh's tipping agency is closed for the moment, as it is busy recalibrating the tip-o-meter for the anticipated slop factor. Tips to go up tomorrow.

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2015

    Will the AAGPS Blue and White matches be going ahead at Boronia Park tonight? http://www.huntershill.nsw.gov.au/Applications/Search.aspx?Id=3 The council web site says the oval is open but it has been raining intermittently all day here, and we all know what Councils are like with their oval...

    NSW AAGPS - The Next Generation - U16 Competition, and Presidents XV Rep Team

    If a lad in the Opens Trials is not selected for NSW ALL Schools 1st XV or 2nd XV, AND they are Under 16 eligible, the NSW SRU U16 selectors will consider them for selection into the NSW All Schools Under 16 team, even if they don't attend the Under 16's Championships on Saturday and Sunday...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2015

    One thing to remember in the cross border sniping is that until this years Year 8 (I think) reach Year 12, on average the Queensland schooling system graduates most of their Yr 12 boys as 17 year olds with most not legally allowed to consume alcohol at Schoolies - Yeah right. Because of its...

    NSW Schools - Trial Games and Selections 2015

    Guys, there is nothing wrong with a poster throwing up a post that is full of bias towards their school, or players from their school, or their son, sibling or relative. To those who do so, it is probably best if you declare that bias up front. Doing so, at least you retain credibility and a...

    McDonalds sell over a billion Big Macs each year as well. They rate pretty well. Does that make them any good?

    Rugby League players who could have/could make the switch

    Who is watching that overhyped boreathon? It is "Waterloo: The Last Battle" on the History channel here. Fascinating stuff with lots of subtitled French interviews to practice my long unused school French.

    Shute Shield 2015

    He played for the Tahs in SAF didn't he. That would mean he was under some form of contract, probably a short term contract like Stephen Hoiles or Tom Murday at the Reds was on. Belly, Would he have been eligible for to play finals for The Corporation if he turned out in all of the 6...

    Shute Shield 2015

    Maybe Mumm is under RUPA game restrictions. IIRC RUPA members are restricted to 28 games per year. How many games would he have played for Exeter this year before he came here, and how many (assume Stars) NRC games do they intend playing him in? That may rule him out of any club...

    RIP Jerry Collins

    I think I got a bit of dust in my eye and sand in my throat reading that article. Thanks for sharing it @Waiopehu oldboy.
