Anyone else hear that Stephen Moore is coming back to Brisbane on the understanding that Laurie Fisher will be coach next year?

Good question, as of the past year or thereabouts you need to go past a nominations committee before you can get nominated for any position on the QRU board. In a fine move by the current QRU board, the nominations committee is selected by the QRU board. Recently they haven't seen anyone from...

No they weren't. I've gone over this previously but a family member was on the previous Reds board, he was there when they got rid of the previous chairman and appointed Rod McCall. McCall's first move was to implement a review which ended up getting rid of Mooney. The previous board then...

I haven't seen it mentioned here but an article in the Australian last week said two Qld sons coaching overseas had already put their hands up for next season. I'm just guessing but my immediate thoughts were Brian Smith at London Irish and Matt Taylor with Scotland.

I too am really looking forward to this match. And honestly, although I'd love to see Sunnybank go back to back my head says Uni. Whatever the result, I'm sure to enjoy the afternoon at Ballymore.

Brothers' #7 shown a red card in the first minute of the match. Last twitter update shows Uni 50 v Filth 7 at the 50 minute mark.

Just to clear things up, I'm not on the board of Sunnybank community club but a relative is; the information I'm passing on is all second hand. So to be frank I have not a clue how much the rugby club gets from the community club, its certainly not inconsequential but I'm pretty sure it comes on...

Not quite sure of the figures, but 30% does not sound too far off the mark. I think Sunnybank is looking for ways to diversify, but their biggest issue at the moment is that they’re on land leased from the Brisbane city council. Their most recent priority has been to purchase their own land, not...

I checked out the Sunnybank gym in my days off over Christmas; incredible setup they’ve got there. What surprised me is that they’ve added a short undercover tartan track too so they can do sprints and fitness in all weather. Absolutely incredible for a suburban rugby club.

This is a few weeks old but I couldn't find news of this elsewhere in the thread. Rugby on the rise in the USA USA Rugby announced an exciting development for rugby in the country with the inception of full time contracts for 23 Sevens athletes in 2012. Starting in January 2012, a...

Last I heard Sunnybank were talking to Chris Roche.

Read the title of this thread and thought it would be about Parisse being married to a former Miss France. My bad.

For those who haven't heard (and want to know), Sunnybank won 35-24. I don't know the details I'm afraid.

Yet another cracking match, anyone not watching Eng v Georgia definitely should be.

Sorry guys, just getting the score updates from someone at the game, don't know the details except Seuili, Ben Lucas, Setu and Sunila scored tries. I know there were a couple more because the score updates stopped between Sunnybank 16-8 and 33-8
