It will be very interesting to see how Easts go early season. Although BM is signed with Canberra for 2024 is also confirmed as an ongoing consultant for the 23 season. If he is consulting SC will no doubt pick up the slack but what happens during the Super W season if this occurs which is...

Easts is flying under the radar a bit with not much news coming out of Tiger land in terms of recruitment? Also keen to hear how the students are shaping up for the season under the new coach.

I was just having a look at that GF teams and can only see a couple of players in both teams from the Rebels that weren't at the club before the 2022 season. Clearly both UQ and Wests have a good relationship with Melbourne which seems to be working well based on the seasons results. Looking at...

It sounds like the Wests v Sydney Uni game is locked in at the kennel on the 4th March. Apparently it was advertised to all members earlier in the week. The Brothers Randwick game would be a cracker as well.

Word is that a few club teams have lined up the Reds academy as a trial game. I know Bond was confirmed to play against them. Also saw Wests mentioning a game against Sydney Uni at some stage and Brothers playing Randwick. Some great rugby to kick us off for 2023 if this was the case.

Has 1st grade coaches and assistants been formally announced for all the premier grade teams yet?

Been told Werchon is likely to leave Brothers. Any truth to that?

Interesting time of the year with all the player movements and rumors going around. Word on the street is that the Dragons are spending big $.

Curious how this whole agent thing works? My understanding is that a number of pro players are actually managed by league agents without RUPA accreditation.

Any news on coaches or player changes for the 2023 season. Rumors should be at its best this time of year?

2 very strong teams! Not sure who will get the win!

Exactly what finals should be about. Drama on drama. Great to see the turn out at both GPS and Wests today. Club rugby is certainly alive and well. Congrats to the teams progressing. Exciting couple of weeks to look forward to.

Good to see Twidale has recovered from that hit Kuridrani put on last week. He was taken off at the break for what I can only assume was due to concussion. Is there HIA in 1st grade rugby?

Best four teams playing in the semis this weekend no doubt. Weather might be a factor in results as Saturday is forecast with 90% chance of rain and pretty windy on Sunday. Great match ups all over but looking at the teams it will be the performances of the 9's and 10's that for me looks very...

Great to hear that the non 23 Wallabies will once again play club rugby this weekend. It should be a similar UQ team minus Tate. Yoku Road looks like the place to be on Saturday.

As per competition rules all contracted players playing at the moment will be eligible for finals as long as they've been registered before the cut off date. There are no requirement around amount of games played. UQ certainly look like the favorites after their display on the weekend.

10.2 (1) A player must have been properly seasonally registered with the club no later than Saturday 3rd of July. This specifically and strictly applies to Contracted Players. This includes being registered on Rugby Xplorer in that year of competition. Contracted players due not have to have...

Wests have named a team with a couple of interesting changes in the backrow. I know that Max Johnson is an exciting prospect as an 18 year old but keen to see how he goes in senior football. He has been excellent in their colts team so great to see he gets rewarded for that.

So good to see all the rep players playing some rugby this weekend in QPR. Must say the Red Heavies could change their name to the Reds Rebels with their team of 2022 contracted players. What a team! Rebels - Kailea, Wallis, Ripley, Pincus, Jooste Reds - Nasser, Zander, McDermott, Oates...

Would somewhere like Nudgee not work well? They have multiple fields in great condition and more than enough facilities to cater for crowds including parking. How good would it be to have all the games in the same location.
