ROB42 wrote To spare Bruce Ross from having to, for the umpteenth time, defend Sydney Uni, what he would say is this: whilst the Tahs have a reasonable number of Uni players in their squad, the training methods and team culture are very different between the two. Bruce would point out, for...

Wamberal - I think he might have been joking - great coach and admin and culture built the success of Eastwood last year and it didnt happen overnight. I think every CLUB team was rooting for the Woodies last year. And so was B Melrose after that, and the current coach. I think the top "CLUB"...

WJ - you are a wise man, possibly. It could be attitude and culture, I think an team could be selected from lastweekend club rugby teams, that with sufficient time to gel could put preasure on the tah's. I think that is just what they need, some heat and pressure to wake them up. It would be...

Could the Tah's problem be; To Uni heavey and that culture, I mean a club rugby side Eastwood knocked a Super 15 side over in last years GF. Try and take it constructively. Cheers,

Agree. However, with an extended Super Rugby is a full home and away still tenable? - 2 different comps, why should that matter? We started in April and lost about 6 weeks of potential club rugby, the Shute sheild is a good product and it was a ridiculously long wait before the season start. Stick to...

Great game, and crowd, build the right culture - up the Marlins

Here's something to look at, how could you Force supporters possibly be compaining. NSW probably has the strongest third tier in country - and have not won a super tittle. The Rebels no sit above them. NSW had probably the best Australian coach in Link, and the season the Tah's made the final -...

Shiggins - sort of hearing you but also believe you are also way off the mark in a number of area's. Sydney has probably the strongest club comp in the country - but what about the Waratah's. When the Force spent money at the start Git's, Sharpe, Pocock to name only 3 the Reds felt the pain...

Cadeyrn thuroughly deserves to retain his position, anothe top game. 4. Cadeyrn Neville 5. Hugh Pyle 6. Luke Jones

Crowds - let's pack the Village Green Manly on the weekend - support the Third Tier and club rugby. ARU Board Member General Peter Cosgrove is making an appearance, it would be great to show him the passion and loyolty within club rugby. Rugby in gods country.

Passion!!!! for the Jersey, and that is not just the players it is also the supporters. I'd much rather watch the shute shield were 4th - 1st grade team up and play for their club with passion. It is not just union, take the State of Origin as another example. Can we can complain about injuries...

Always a good crowd, helps with gate takings. Under the radar. I dont know, should be a cracker game if the weather clears up. Get down there and cheer them on.

Give Eddie A a start, Club rugby for the last 2 years Manly's scrum has dominated all others, and gave Uni a solid push last year in the semi's when they had a Super 15 pack.

When will the comp start, this delay is rediculous - we've had 4 rounds of NRL and the first round is 3 weekends away.

With 2 most glaring examples of Farr-Jones and Kearns.. . . . . . Marty Roebuck, Tim Gavin, who was the half back from around the Hunter, it could be a very long list if researched. There is some awesom country talent that goes unsighted becuase of rural commitments, and their enjoyment with the...

Ripper, Congrats on the sheild last year, won by a true club team built from the bottom up. I honestly think the creation of an extra tier 'above' club rugby would only weaken and devalue the competitions we already have. Go and ask the players who have just played 21 rounds of Premier Rugby...

Interesting topic this one - are we all jealous of what NZ has with the NCP, and RSA has with the Currie cup? I am. If they can do it why can't we, it doesnt have to be impossible, they've proved it can be done. QLD, & NSW, have a strong premier comp steeped in history and core rugby values /...

I would like to see teams who score the most tries ussually win games, and then also reduce the amount of penalty goals. This topic has been discussed for years, so obviously a difficult of interst with a difficult resolution.

I think McQueen had an experiment in Africa??? Try 5 Conversions 3 = 8 Penalty 2 Drop Goal 2 Was that right, did anyone hear how that went?
