No Hugh,everyone is getting upset because Johnny and ALL of his teammates for 3 years are missing out,when they are replaced by "the dream team" As you point out, it was tolerated when Schools fudged one here and one there.Bringing in entire teams or squads,is clearly not to be tolerated,nor...

Jarse,if you cannot see a difference in handing out literally a handful of academic scholarships, that are totally transparent and disclosed on a Schools website,with details such as closing dates. etc to secretly,and against rules of the association you compete in,bringing in a whole Rugby team...

Sorry mate, but this is horseshit. You don't rip apart the SS today,on the basis that it's a great ideal to have similar competitions in WA,Vic etc SOME TIME IN THE DISTANT FUTURE. How about for a start,the fucking ARU spends more time than the cab ride into work,to devise a system that might...

It is a puzzling attitude. This will not go away by digging in one's heels and releasing a sham report. Surely,he is being more conciliatory with the other Schools in private?

How do you explain Warringah winning 1st grade at Uni earlier this season?

Sydney Uni

IMO, it's a shot across the bows. It will probably have the desired effect of convincing Scots to reduce their activity in this space. Without "blowing up" the entire association. Undoubtedly,some of the other Headmasters wouldn't want Lambert going through each of their enrolments over the past...

Nothing will happen. Scots will promise to play nicely in the future,but will present their " independent" report that confirms no scholarships. The other Sçhools will not challenge it,because to do so will open a Pandora's box, that will put pressure on more of these Principals and could...

The only thing left for a 2nd row to learn,is to buy the pretty boys drinks at the nightclub and hope like hell the girls outnumber the backs. Otherwise they will never procreate.

Sorry, but that is idiotic,you sign up today,and the only posts you have made on this forum has been on this topic. And you are calling for this thread to close? 129 pages on,and the topic is more relevant now,than at any other time. At no other point of time,has any School ever threatened to...

When does Phil Blake recommence his duties as defence coach? Any plans for a kicking coach? EOY tour traditionally boasts plenty of debutants,who is in the mix for this year?

Who would be our 5th pick fly half? What would the reaction be if the 5th choice was picked to start in a Test against a major nation?

He has to say this now.Anything less than total denial, places his position in serious jeopardy, I would have thought. If the 5 Schools had the moxy to take up the good Dr's invitation,to " look at the books" it would definitely put an end to any GPS Schools fudging with Scholarships for the...

Look at each try that was scored,and see where the defenders were placed. In a few of those tries there is a 20 metre blindside with only the poor right winger. One of them from our midfield kick! Understanding how the Reds got their mismatches,by viewing the phases leading up to these tries...

Sounds good,but not logical. It's a 2 hour process between checking in and boarding. Bear in mind,it's little more than a 3 hour flight. Who gets up early,lines up at check in,goes through customs,waits for the desk to be staffed prior to boarding,has a discussion about seating and decides to...

This most obvious response is,if that would still work today,they would still play that way today. After all they train longer and smarter than they did back then. So it is definitely a strategic decision,by all the current coaches, not just one.

Does he even have a choice? I thought the tv rights here were sold as a whole by SANZAR?

Horses for courses, the improvement in defence has made that style redundant. A

Huge difference,SU are acting totally within the guidelines they have agreed to. The School is not. If the SS changes the rules,I am sure SU would comply. Apparently,some Schools just make up their own rules.

Don't get on the forums much?
