With the Hong Kong (27/3-29/3) and Japan (4/4-5/4) rounds of the Rugby 7's circuit coming up soon, and Wilkin being the most recent player to be on a Rugby 7's contract, I'd anticipate that G. John would be keen to have him touring with the Aus 7's squad, and not playing for his state U20's at...

All the "good" ones will be locked in for the RWC. In the aftermath of the various RWC reviews, some former International Standard Coaches may suddenly become available.

It seems that the Mungo press are good at counting to five. Numbers bigger than five would require them to use their right hand as well, and based on much of their output, it would seem that that is often otherwise engaged. It is often said that the first casualty of war is the truth. In...

By all accounts kids at Big Rugby Schools in the age group A Stream and 1st XV get "good" development, and don't really need to go to JGC. Every spot in the JGC that is not occupied by a Private School Rockstar means that their replacement is getting an elite development opportunity, and face...

If the QRU have come out and confirmed that RG is safe and has their full backing, then that means the exact opposite. They have started the search to replace him, but either haven't yet got a preferred candidate but will sack him when they find someone and agreed terms with them. I reckon...

The World stage for AFL is Zero. I guess Australia dominates that particular "stage" because we are the only mob stupid enough to play a sport that no one else does. To fabricate some form of international validity for a silly sport that rewards inaccuracy and being almost good enough, they have...

I like this initiative: Register your kids here for a chance to be a Volvo Player Mascot -http://www.waratahs.com.au/Warat…/MatchDay/VolvoPlayerMascot

While I would like to see the most potentially "Exciting" game on each weekend, I recognise that as @BellyTwoBlues has pointed out, all clubs should get a guernsey on the Telly so they can offer exposure for their businesses that put their hand in their pocket for the clubs as their sponsors...

At the halfway point of the 2014-15 Women's Sevens World Series, Australia sit second in the standings ahead of Canada on points difference over the course of the season to date. With the top four countries securing automatic qualification for the 2016 Olympics in Rio, the next round of the...

So, which game will be televised? I vote for Rats vs Hobbits.

Rugby, Craft Beer, Meat Pies. The MMM have it all. Awesome if we could get to see Nomad product on sale at home games.

The answer to the above question must be so obvious to most of the population that it falls into the rhetorical classification. I'm unsure how many times it needs to be posted, but the revised model for choosing the State, Barbarian and National U20 squads seems to have all but eliminated...

What is happening with the Hooker position is being played out in nearly all other positions in the squad, with even the current uninjured folk only one training or game accident away from joining Team Rehab and missing out consideration for the Jnr RWC. Some folk will be the selectors first...

Referees are a limited resource. They do not grow on trees and you can't drop into Bunnings or any other retailer to get a couple of them "off the shelf". As in any population "good referees" are a sub-set of the total referee population. The more referees we have, the more "good referees"...

You had to ask. It has taken me some time to get to the point where I sort of understand it enough to build it into the visual basic coding modules of the spreadsheet I use. Some of these I have just copied the relevant subroutines directly off a couple of geeky Excel VB forums without fully...

The coaching will determine how the players in the programme develop not the referees in the games provided those in the programme diligently apply themselves to the programme. Referees in games may determine whether a kid (or parent) wins a prize, but they do not determine whether the kid has...

Wow. Well done to the Pirates. Still think the Woodies will be too strong for the Wicks in Round 1, but it could be a little closer than initially predicted guessed.
