TV viewing or supporter attendance? Everyone has, and is allowed different views - the ARC didn't interest me as the players were disbursed everywhere. I will use Uni as an easy example - their players may have been running around for 3 different teams - I wouldn't have a team to follow. If it...

Agreed, I should have included Melrose in the above as well. He also had a very positive impact on Manly.

Bruce - I disagree with that!! However, I think it is due to the board & administration - Uni's sucess comes from excellent administration, player management, and also some other benifits that are often pointed out, but lets just concentrate on what is done well. Todd Louden, John Manenti, & Tim...

Auckland was Auckland in those days - they were the bench mark in profincial rugby. I've tried googling the information to assist / support what i thought. Auckland back then were a sensational side, the bench mark - the point albeit in a Force thread - was he had one coached NSW, and 2 - his...

Last coach that left NSW unceremoniously was Link, leaving in such away is not the only similarity - they are both wise front rowers of the same vintage. I'm not sure that he was the problem, at least you guys have a coach now.

BH yes it was around then, a lot of unheralded players in the team playing very balanced rugby. And yes i think they were undefeated.

I recall it was between 90 and 92, on a wet day at Concord oval.

I know just wanted to have it said again. But it also confirms there is talent out there, and I do believe with the right culture players will want to play for their club - make it more tribal.

I place alot of the 91 world cup success on Mcqueen''s NSW coaching, the Daly, Kearns, Link Front row, he blooded Edgerton from some where, a strong stable centre pairing of Tombs and Wells - he's very well balanced coach and peoples person, This team knocked over the Auckland Blues at there...

Firstly I havent paid attention to the colts comp - but Tahboy some very very good points. I thought I saw Parra compete very strongly in the state junior comp - did I? I think if a club plays in first division it should field the required teams. All other "clubs" should be able to draw on...

And he had a great game in # 6 on the weekend when the Marlins got up 6 tries to 3 over uni.

True, but, should they be bumped out of the top 8 by 2 teams that couldnt make the top 6. Up until the split the Beasties had been solid (not great / just solid) across all grades, one of only 2 clubs to beat Eastwood, and one of only 2 clubs to beat Manly. Maybe 5 & 6 (of the top 6) play the 7...

Was Tummy Carter growing Waratah's in his hair, I mean what was with the red hair die?

Tahs players to attend club rugby games with 50 family tickets each and to hand them out to the kids getting the ball around, and to join in kicking the ball.

MMM up in a solid tight game ~ up the Marlins, continue the charge.

bring back George Smith

G'day Bruce, I take it you received my PM about a positive side of the top 6 format that I don't think we saw coming. Cheers

Each to there own - I enjoy going to club rugby more than super rugby. It should be about both, the public need to support our game - Shute Shield / 3rd Tier / Super Rugby - The Tah's suffered this year with crowds. Not sure who you support, an example of what I'd like to see this weekend; Manly...

Randwick??? Hasn't been near the Club Championships for a while. Great idea, teams need to have a strong club base / depth. Whilst there is the curtain raiser approach for the derbies i think it would be wise to keep the club involved so they to benefit and assist with ongoing growth. Could...

I know, but a prop of all people is currently setting the mark?
