Absolutely they should have announced the demise of the 16's,when they announced the JGC program. I'm not that big a fan of the 16's concept.its more about prestige than development IMO.

That's an interesting observation IS. Is your criticism specific to one particular centre or team,or the whole thing?

Will be a great match up,Norths were pretty busy picking up highly rated Schoolboys as well IIRC. When/where are they playing?

And I see your Ayoub and raise you a Kaplan. Game over.

KB (Kurtley Beale) never missed a tackle last week!

I thought the ACT were the least physical side, NSW has played thus far. Although that might merely be a function of watching it from further away(it was at the SFS) I thought your 10 & 12 played as well as your backs with Super contracts.

From a punting perspective I reckon the Reds are great value. Generally speaking I think the Reds are better than they are perceived,and I think the Shorks may be a little overrated. Should the Reds be the biggest underdogs of the round? I don't think so. They just have to be good enough to...

Is this the ARU or the Catholic Church?

Ok see where you are coming from. This is where I slightly disagree. A Scots kid will still get on the pathway,just a different face.

Is it usual to travel that early in the week for a NZ game?

Why?

Just tone it down fella. I couldn't be fucked about getting into a flame war about a colts trial game. If you were there,and paying attention,can you give us the scores from each of the halves that were played? How about a few lines on the strengths and weaknesses of both sides ?

KB (Kurtley Beale) should be worried,but so should Pat. This channel could well be where the game is won or lost.

Really? I heard there were 5 scheduled and only 4 played. I was told there was an hour break before the last 2 halves. Wonder why that happened? Don't get precious about the score,it's a trial. If your mob is happy with how they went,terrific!

I heard Rats were comfortable winners over Gordon last week. Apparently Gordon did not have sufficient numbers to complete the scheduled number of trials in both Colts & grade.

Hope he is getting his RSA cert. Can't see him starting in the Tahs this year. Horne & Carraro both played Tahs A last week,even if there are significant injuries, he has to leapfrog two other centres who have played in the Tahs A setup this year. A good pickup at SS level though.

I think you overstating the success of AFL at the time. There were several clubs in financial trouble at that time. Players were semi professional,all of them had full times jobs outside of footy. Absolutely their heritage was strong,but that was not reflected by financial results. I agree with...

Agree, If anything, the massive growth in the game can be traced back to when these "traditional" clubs were transplanted into enemy territory,to give the game a National presence.

I was disappointed,but not surprised by the tactic to take the points. If you are 32 up,and still won't have a crack,then you never will. If you are going to play that way every week,you have to be better,man on man. Or rely on the opposition not turning up. Enjoy the win Force fans,they...

Would 3 crates of Lion Red be an asset or a liability on a balance sheet?
