If they're charging money,it should be open to anyone with the interest at 14. They should have the confidence in the program,and run it continuously through the ages. The ARU needs to take ownership of junior development,and wrest control off the Schools. Mr Pulver needs to understand that you...

Picking winners at age 14 is not a sound strategy. The program should be much more inclusive at this lower age level. Especially if they have the hide to charge the participants for the program.

I reckon that club rugby tv will cover the semi's that the ABC doesn't.

Fair point. The bit I didn't like,was that Link refused to acknowledge they were deficient in any areas,and just talked up the positives. I am too jaundiced from hearing that crap from Foley at the Tahs,to lap it up from the Wobs coach. I would much prefer he gave an honest assessment rather...

It is worth zero for housing,if you are building a high performance building that the club can use for free forever,instead of houses.

Of course it will be fucking less. Ever heard you can't have your cake and eat it too? Eastwood are going to sell an asset,let the Government spend a gut load in improvements.then be allowed full usage rights in perpetuity. They are hardly pay a premium for the land in that scenario are they? So...

I didn't rate him when he was at the Reds.My impression was he sea gulled, his performance for the Rebels was much stronger and tighter. I am a fan.Obviously Link was happy for him to be causing havoc wider than the traditional role,

Possession for possessions sake is not a winning strategy. Having the majority of the ball because you are too scared to test the defence,is not what Link was promoting when he was lobbying for the job.

Well you guys would know.there is no one that goes through that program in finer detail than your fellas! Just be glad they haven't worked out what the PSSA is yet! It will get harder if you have to compete with more than one School to identify kids that are talented with the triangle!

Absolutely Dave,that is a given. Good luck to Manly,they have worked hard and smart to be where they are. This series of posts were purely in response to a incorrect and glib statement about why 3 star Schoolboys changed clubs.

First of all,I do not represent anyone. Secondly you clearly have in idea of the workings down there or you would immediately know who was referenced above. Thirdly,don't be snide about a club with less resources than yours.

MONEY!

Suggesting the third last team in a ten team comp,hasn't done enough to make the semi's is a valid observation IMO. What was the points differential for the 8th team?

You wouldn't force players to move.you would just not allow ANY players with points to join,until players had moved on.

You think if he would still qualify to play for them,he wouldn't still be enrolled? If they were allowed,they would have more Super contracted players than Uni.

Positive? I thought they were channeling Michael foley,they did have plenty of ball but never looked dangerous all night.

of course their current players want to be there. That is self evident. I believe a more even SS is better for the game.look at the score in the colts semi 100 point wins develop no one. Playing Super contracted players in reserves because you can't fit them in your 1's also adds nothing...

I just read an article by Georgia Robinson from yesterday's Sun Herald,where Link was in total denial. He was really happy with the attack,defence was only an issue cos they ran out of time. If he actually believes 50% of what was written,we are doomed for the foreseeable future.

I think you are looking at it too deeply. Some guys in front of me (wearing both oz & AB jumpers) booed. It was almost reflex,there was no venom in it. Just like the villains in pantomimes.

That's sort of my point. Many of the crowd there last night were also at the Lions game. Rugby in NSW has about 1/2 the support of any one of 5 or 6 Melbourne based AFL clubs.
