Great initiative. Should be more of this happening in the schools pre-season. Good to see ISA Div 3 schools, and Freshwater involved as well as some "Big" CAS schools, and ISA Div 1 heavyweights.

NZ Under 20 Preparations are well underway http://www.allblacks.com/News/26799/players-named-for-nz-under-20-camp The following players have been selected to take part in a New Zealand Under 20 trial camp at the Massey University Sport and Rugby Institute from 5 to 9 March: Forwards...

This from last year's North Shore Times. http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/newslocal/north-shore/norths-seti-tafua-walks-again/story-fngr8ih3-1226795695180

There are a few on here that are.:)

Following on from @Lee Grant's summary at post 381: @Lee Grant has listed 27 Names, many of which are at variance with my tipping list above. Congratulations to those lads on effectively making the cut. By all accounts they have really applied themselves diligently over the summer. Of the...

NSW Blues clean sweep. National Champions in Women's, Mens, Boys, and Girls divisions for 2015. Illiseva Batibasaga (NSW Blue) was announced as the Women's Player of the Tournament. WOMEN'S Results: Cup Quarter-Finals: NSW Blue 36-0 Australian Universities, Australian Services...

"Only when you are looking from the inside can you look deeper beneath the surface" says RG. When did Robbie Deans get appointed speechwriter for the Reds?

Any idea if there will be a Women's tournament as well? If not the World Women's circuit tournament, then perhaps move the Nationals forward to coincide with this event. Be great if there were age group or schoolboys/schoolgirls events running in parallel with the finals and SF of those being...

How about trying to land Adrian Thompson after the Under 20's campaign at Jnr RWC in Italy? He's from QLD, and seems to be acceptable to the Mandarins in St Leonards. Seems to be able to cobble a team together from disparate locations and teach them to execute some semblance of a game...

The John 1 Dent Cup thread is reporting that the Emus Colts were defeated by the ACT Royals Colts by 50 - 7. An ominous sign of another long year coming up for the Emus if they persist in registering a Colts 1 team.

Kicking the failed Gold Coast 7's experiment into touch, the ARU today announced Sydney will be the home of the Australian leg of the Sevens World Series for the next four years from the 2015-16 season. The Sydney Sevens will take place at Allianz Stadium in Moore Park, with dates of the...

While the norm seems to be 85 players+ are needed annually for a 3 team Colts campaign, Norths managed season 2014 with just 65 players to sustain their 3 teams. 44 players played at least one game in Colts 1, 50 likewise in Colts 2 and 46 in Colts 3. With that player roster in 2014, both...

We had enough opportunity to win by 40 points against a very laxative performance from the Banjolanders. I'll take a miserable win by 1 point at Lang Park anyday, but the Tahs will need to eliminate the unforced error rate if they are to have any chance against the Clan next week. They will...

We're only up to "You put your right foot in, you put your right foot out", "You put your whole body in" comes much later.

If Surgeon Kirwin is only contracted until the end of this year, I would expect that a Board, acting responsibly, has already initiated a search for someone to coach the team in 2016. It is too late to start this process in September 2015, as anyone of quality that would have been remotely...

Fans don't leave with 8 minutes to go in any match, no matter how shizzen their teams performance may be. It's Voyeurs, not Fans, that leave before the game is over. The former are the group that boo.

Why grubber the ball away when you are behind by more than 7 points, and the siren has gone?

^^ & Banjolanders from the dark side.

The ARU has clearly thought about the impact of having recreational drug users in their professional playing ranks, and what to do about it. They have an existing policy involving carrots and sticks (fines, rehab and education programmes, and life skills training sessions), which by all accounts...

All I know, apart from where the contracted 7's players will be playing is that there will be three players from The Mighty 2 Blues in the NSW Team: Chris NAY Larry HERMANS Lani TIATIA Be nice to have a squizz at the full Team lists to see who will be playing. It is hard to get behind the...
