    What is the story here? Many parents spend > $25000 pa to increase their kids chances of getting entry into a university course of their choice. There is an option available of doing similar for only $12000, and that is endorsed by Sydney University (although the university courses...

    The League Media

    There is innovation for you. Don't kick on the fifth tackle and confuse the buggery out of the match officials and the opposition have dumbed down their participation in the game to "don't bother counting the tackles, just defend until the ball has been kicked".

    Sydney Colts - 2015

    While he was listed on the Wicks Web site in the run on list for Colts 1, for what it is worth, the match report team list on Rugby Link says he didn't play Colts 1 or Colts 2. http://rugbyunion.resultsvault.com/common/pages/public/rv/match.aspx?gradeid=18086_1&entityid=53029&matchid=2161730

    Refereeing decisions

    Be useful to get some clarity on these rulings, and tactics/counter tactics before the RWC. Hate to think of the damage it would do the the RWC if the final is decided on the back of something like this. There are some who still haven't moved on from a possible forward pass in the FRA v NZL...

    World Rugby Sevens Caravan coming to Sydney

    Singapore was once a mecca for Duty Free goods, when most countries had very complex and high tariff systems for (primarily) small electrical consumer goods like stereos, watches, cameras, etc. This was also bolstered by the long haul Airlines using it as a preferred hub location. Much of the...

    Continued decline in Sydney Junior Rugby

    The SJRU team registrations seem to suggest that this years NSW JRU State champs might be a little skinny for District Teams in the upper age groups.

    Sydney U/18 Colts

    This is all I know: There have been claims that the Gordon and Uni teams are actually 4ths Colts rather than U18's, and that the Penrith Colts 3 team are actually all Under 18. While the player data on the NSWRU web site is still a little patchy, it would appear that there are more than a few...

    Reds 2015

    Someone posted a question: Can anybody tell me who the last team to win a super rugby tournament without their first choice 10? I merely pointed out that the 2011 World Cup (a level above Super Rugby) has been won by a team without their first choice 10.
