    Knox has postponed their Gala day due to the weather prediction. Games against Joeys going ahead at this stage, although I expect they will try to protect the fields this early in the season.

    Wallabies 2024

    I think Kellaway is a lock for FB. He has the best rugby brain out of the candidates, is calm, more of a leader and less prone to errors. Schmidt picks players who stick to his game plan as well so i think someone like Pietsch may get a run, he is not the most talented but he runs straight, has...

    Shute Shield 2024

    Great day and solid game but geez Manly would it hurt to have a few more beer tents. 35 minute queues for warm beer and two portaloos. Club could have made another 10k. Also shame the game has received no coverage, the derby is the best rivalry in the comp and gets the best crowds but nothing in...

    Waratahs 2024

    Alatini played for the Rats and moved to Canberra with a large squad of NSW players like Johnno Ryan and Malakye Enasio. Massimo was from Qld then did time playing for Wests in the ACT before taking an offer from the Reds. Yes, Barrett has an academy contract but was in Fiji with the senior...

    Waratahs 2024

    A couple of years ago Edmed was ranked 3rd or fourth then Harrison got injured. Harrison has a better running, passing and kicking game but looks like will be cut in favour of Edmed and Bowen. We have a great back 5 but they never get the ball at the right time because the inside halves don't...

    I believe Rats beat West, Gordon and Norths comfortably in grade trials, how'd they go in colts?

    Sorry if the tackler has bent his knees and hips to get into a tackling position and then the attacker drops his height into the defence that's not red. Head contact unavoidable but there is mitigation, yellow only. Compare that to Lachy Swinton's red last year.

    Australian Rugby / RA

    RA needs some genuine assets to support itself and grow in the future, they currently own nothing of value. NRL just bought another hotel pushing their asset register over $250m and the AFL asset register assures them of huge income. We rely on broadcast for everything and the tiny size of...

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    Super round has nothing special about it. the promotion is poor/non-existent and doesnt explain why it is happening. Make it an ANZAC round or Pasific round or something and play u20s and women's games on the same day. One venue in Aust and one in NZ.

    The biggest issue is that when rugby dumped Fox, News Ltd black banned rugby. The amount of news articles, game coverage advertising etc is now a fraction of what it was so it is impossible to grow the game. The SMH does maybe one article per day. Unfortunately, by cutting out the country's...

    All schools do it, good luck to them, so this banned topic should be dropped or we will get shut down like the GPS page is right now. Is any school touring their teams in the holidays?

    Id say it is more to put a stronger body behind the props who got punished last week.

    On paper you would reckon Knox and Waves this year, but Knox forward pack is nothing like last years, the backs should dominate though, so if their forwards can gain parity they should go well. Barker could be a smokey, still some talent there but are also rebuilding. Last years Cranbrook...

    Make it part of the GPS 3rd XV comp, would even it out a bit, get Grammar and High more interested, plus plenty of ISA etc like Kinross.

    NSW AAGPS 2024

    Everyone assumes New will reduce boys numbers. I have been told they are expanding the campus to accommodate the girls. Additionally what sporting comp will the girls go into? IGSA wont let them in as they have already rejected Barker. Either way News next premiership could come from the ladies...

    Wallabies 2024

    Reimer and Cale in over Mcreight and Wright. Reimer did a lot of dirty work and got about 6 turnovers, didn't seagull out wide for highlight reel stuff. Hodgeman was immense for the Reds, toweled up HJH (Harry Johnson-Holmes) and belted tahs at the ruck. Alot of 2nd rows to choose from, Canham was good for the Rebs...
