Hi Garza, My son plays for the Corp and I was their yesterday and have been to all the games this year so I will offer a few observations. I will make each one a separate post so that people can weigh in to the topics they care about.

I think you are right about the "long year" for the Corp. We lacked any sort of punching forward play and did not make any observable impact at the breakdown. But that is OK, good young blokes coming through and Uni will always compete and the coaching staff are up for the challenge. I think we...

I'll pick them early Round 3 Games - 4 April Northern Suburbs v Parramatta (Friday game) Manly v Eastern Suburbs Sydney University v Gordon Southern Districts v Penrith Warringah v Randwick West Harbour v Eastwood

Just home from Bowral. Corp v Easts Hugh Jarse and I Like to Watch called it correctly. Easts turned up to play and competed hard but, "full credit to the boys". All three Easts scrums were destroyed. 3rds Uni by a few tries 2nds Uni about 55 to 7 1sts Uni about 42 to nil Sorry I cannot be more...

It is true that if the Corp get a roll on in the forwards their backs can become devastating through speed - both in kmh and execution. I will be there tomorrow and will jot down a few thoughts when I get back. Good luck to all.

Both HJ and ILTW have our Corp flogging Easts. Can you tell me why please? I thought Easts went OK last year - about middle of the pack - and Uni have a lot of new players just starting with the Corp.

Put the ;) beside Parra v Hobbits and I agree.

None on the Corps Team Lists

Ouch!! I get it. :(

Gibbo - as one great Australian said, "Please Explain" What Grenade did you just lob?

Thanks Mate, I expected to be pilloried (still might be) I reckon the point would be that across this thread there has been very little indication that anyone thought what Potgeiter did was OK. I also believe that like me, many people have Gay and Lesbian Family and Friends and we get it...

Slow down Braveheart. You assume too much. You don't know me. If you did you would know by my speech and action that I rigorously believe that calling someone a faggot is never justified - ever. I am not clutching at the straw you suggest nor running that argument and I don’t watch South Park so...

Did he abuse someone on the basis of their sexual orientation? I really do not know

Absolute agreement. Great idea.

And were on the Uni tryline for a long time in the second half!

The good news for Penrith is that they had three teams. All three games started with Penrith doing well, but as with last year, they fell away at the end. They have plenty of big boppas with all the skills, but defence falls away as tiredness sets in. Somewhere back in this thread someone...

Tom Carter, not Tim. Tim is his shy and retiring brother. Therein your confusion;)

Bad advice given somewhere. Nobody to point out that the Eastwood Vs Gordon game televised early last season (round 1?) was appalling.

Laffan Cup, slightly OT Just for the record, and because information on the Laffan CUp is harder to find than a proud English Cricketer, Sydney Uni won the Laffan CUp on the weekend.
