They exist already actually but only among some smaller Colleges who either don't have or want to spend up to $100 million annually on a College Football program but for a fraction of the expense can relatively quickly develop a strong Rugby program but it's still a very recent development...

I'm fairly comfortable that Rugby will in time find its feet in the US as while we hear more of the grand plans what we do not hear of is the strong youth work and high schools development that is going on. What distinguishes both Rugby and Lacrosse from the other 'next big things' you have...

As for including the Pacific Rugby Cup teams. Yes, I would definitely support that.

There may not be a great demand for professional Rugby in Uruguay or Chile but I certainly think it could be at least worthwhile considering as both would in time become more competitive. Particularly Chile who are the second best nations behind Argentina in terms of their recent junior teams...

I'm beginning to come around to that conclusion. It may well not be, but, it just seems that this could be perhaps one of the cleverest marketing strategies to draw interest hatched in terms of club Rugby. One that could see Parra lure many punters to Merrylands forking over their cash (and...

Yes, yes and yes. If someone where to come forth with the necessary deep pockets to do so, it would actually make very good business sense to do all three of these things. Not only will it build the necessary talent stream but by getting out into schools you are working toward building the...

There's a theory going round that he'll be back for the 2015 RWC. I guess we'll see.

Exactly, just plain thoughtless and unintelligent Rugby. The game could have been good if they adjusted their play to suit the conditions but instead kept the 1% plays as the norm.

Thanks for the link. I was interested in finding out the details to donate.

Poor decision making and skills execution throughout the entire match. It was played at a hectic pace yes, but, that doesn't excuse away just dire game play. Scott Farva needs to cut Hardisty's kicking foot off. The most enjoyable aspect to the whole game was the Norths stoic and often rattling...

Would certainly have been a better game. There's just been a whole heap of stupid, brainless Rugby on show by both teams.

Maybe but this is pretty dire particularly from Norths. I think Easts will win but haven't even looked remotely dangerous with ball in hand. Norths have defended stoically but seem resolute to run at the man instead of using the clear numbers advantage they have found themselves on a few...

This has got to be one of the worst games of Rugby I've seen at this level for a while both in execution by both teams and by the officials.

Brumbies players having to play in the Canberra competition. Lose a few there.

It appears that the win against Parramatta was an apparition more than a return to form.

The ever constant conundrum of Aus Rugby. What we really need, and how to best do it. Having watched the Shute Shield today, the standard this season is good but we could create something above it that could be just that much better.

It wasn't Gareth Palamo but it was silly of Namoa to carry out. Not too sure a red was warranted, certainly a yellow but not too sure about the red. Either way it was decisive in its process which you have to applaud the officials for.

Another group of 'well heeled' individuals established a business entity in Delware earlier this year and are currently in talks with both the USAR and CRFU as to its establishment. As for RL, there's nothing of not in existence and I suspect they may have bought the organisation to use its...

Not the prettiest of games but an excellent series. What even more pleasing, and it's something I find very, very exciting is that I get the feel that this series has set in place the beginning of a potentially fantastic rivalry. Forget the last 48 years in Aus or 8 or nine meetings. That's...

Italy 2023 and Argentina 2027. I think that's fair enough.
