Any word on when the Qld and NSW final squads for National Championships will be announced?

@Steve S, This thread is being used to discuss the National 7's championships. There is already a thread up to cover the National Age Group 7's championahips. Here: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/threads/aru-7s-age-championships.14870/page-4 In the anarchy that is Gaggerland, the...

Be careful about assessing a players ability to play Rugby 7's based on the skills and abilities they have in the 15 aside version of the game. There are some fine athletes named in the Qld Red and White team, but 7's requires specialist skills and fitness that many talented 15 aside players...

The Powers that be will be monitoring the Under 20 Team Rehab boys, and if fit they will be parachuted into the National Championship squads, or a position held open in the final Aust squad until they pass a fitness test. Also I reckon that Thompson will be negotiating with the Super Rugby...

NSW Blue are National Rugby 7's champions in both boys and girls divisions. Anyone at Narrabeen today that can give a match summaries?

My take on it is that the ball is not dead when the PK is awarded. If a scrum option is nominated instead of a kick, then the scrum must be completed before no game can be called by the referee. A scrum reset will not wind down the clock and cause the ref to blow no game, because the scrum...

Decision Making. Confused why Higgers decided to take a quick tap at the 82 minute mark. They were 15 metres out, and the Ponies were a man down in the scrum (or could Carter have returned from the naughty boys chair if they opted for a set piece restart? IMHO a penalty break is not an...

I see this note on the Kiama 7's tournament web page: http://www.kiamarugby.com/kiama_sevens.html#sthash.YIlgQQon.dpuf Great news. It looks like the ARU are working hard to realign the Rugby 7's pathway and, rather than re-inventing the wheel, they are tweaking using existing 7's tournaments...

I see in the twitterverse that @Rugby Reg has secured Campo as a podcast guest for the end of March. Great scoop. I'd like Campo to discuss his kicking skills. He seemed to be able to effortlessly carve up 50 metres plus with his kicks from the hand. Was he self taught, just doing what came...

Do they have Judiciary for trial games send offs and citings?

The Ponies looked rather mechanical tonight but the weather conditions would not have helped. Rebels need to believe in themselves more, and have faith that their structures will build pressure and create the spaces needed to crack open defences provided that can hold on to the pill and not...

It really is a little ironic. We pride ourselves that the ball is always in contest in rugby, yet here is a tactic where one team chooses not to contest for possession and gift the ball to their opponents. The defending team chose not to contest in the air and on the ground.

Queensland Weather: Beautiful one day, Perfect the next. Melbourne Weather: Beautiful one minute, Pissing down the next.

^^^ That advice for referees to tell the halfback to use it was included in the IRB briefing note issued last year.

Another "uncontested" lineout "maul" in the Ponies vs Rebels tonight (35 min). No penalty against the uncontesting team. Methinks we are going to see a few more of these being used at Super Rugby and Test level as a counter mauling tactic by the defending team.

A lot of zero's on that cheque that will make the Club Treasurer rather happy. Well done MMM. Edit: All results are yet to be published but the Kiama 7's web site shows the following: http://www.kiamarugby.com/kiama_sevens_winners.html Cup Final: Manly A 7 def Warringah 5 Plate Final...
