    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    I don't get it... might be just a NZ mentality... but you cant win a Premiership from a draw. No matter what age. And I still don't understand why grown men only play 30mins halves in the lower grades over here as well. Maybe that's why the ABs are superior?? ;) Solution: 5mins, each way...

    Shane Tasi is a former Norths boy... and will be welcome back with open arms at any stage :) He moved to the Southside at the end of 2013 so decided to play down there for the convenience as he has a young family. It was obviously a good decision as he has flourished under the Dragons system...

    Ok, so what about having just Prems and Prem Colts play there on Saturday evenings? 6pm - Prem Colts 7.20pm - Premiers. % of gate takings ($2-$5 entry) and bar & food to go to home club? Gives time for footy from Reserve Grade down to be played during the day, then not only the clubs...

    Thanks Filth, really appreciate the support. Our girls also have a shot. Up against a tough Sunnybank this weekend though to make it to the Grand Final against a very talented Uni side. Question - and my wife brought this up: Why isn't there club games played at Ballymore each week? The...

    We would love JOC (James O'Connor).... And I really feel he would be good for our club, even if he doesn't pull on an Eagles jersey.... Which in turn would be good for the comp. But I have a feeling he would head to Sylvan road.... He is good mates with Byron H. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Regarding the Roma trip - a massive amount of credit and thanks must be given to the Brothers club and Matt Kaye for making this happen. A lot of effort has gone in to this and Norths are very thankful for the opportunity to be a part of this unique experience. It has certainly created a buzz...

    Mr Genia has Wests listed as his club this season. Unfortunately (or fortunately for us) he hasn't been released to play this weekend. Neither has big Ed. Only a handful of Reds have been released to their clubs this weekend, with the majority of them taking some time off. Looking at the list...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    I agree TT. Was actually just thinking that also just now. There must be a way around it to ensure Logan and other clubs have the best opportunity to contest in all aspects of the game, across all grades. Earlier games? Different day? Later games at Bond i.e. Prems 7:30pm kick off? Give time for...

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    Yep that is the rule TBD. For premier sides you also need to carry 3 capable front row replacements which would add to Logan's frustrations due to clubs with limited resources having to stock up above when heading south to Bond. Really feel for Logan in this instance and understand their...

    Fair call Dan :) totally understand your point of view. Rugby should be a contest across the park. Big boys just wanna eat on Saturdays!! :) I can guarantee that coach is not involved at Norths anymore as well as that is not the attitude we want. If we can compete, and compete safely, then we...

    @Dan54, apologies you feel that way but we just don't have the players. There is a big duty of care here. We can't throw players into that position who cannot handle it. Fact. We are trying to rebuild and will slowly attract players back, but at the moment, we have a heap of boys who just want...

    Us old fellas have got to play somewhere :) It has been great for our club having some new faces around. Injecting some enthusiasm and of course allowing our playing group numbers to increase, so much so that we are able to field a 3rd grade side for the first time in a very long time...

    TT - Souths came out firing and had their 4 try bonus point within 15mins :( No excuses at all - One was a charge down, 2 were bad defensive reads by us and 1 was a turnover to a pacey wing and away he went, with a very good fend. Well taken opportunities. All in all, where we have fallen...

    Evan had issues with concussions. Vuki is the best name to use for Veresa Maitaitini. Shane moved to the south side and SB was the closest club. Massive loss yes. Sent from my mind......

    QLD Premier Rugby 2014

    I think it has been named as we have been advised that players who are starting for Reds A on Sunday in Sydney, cannot play club on Saturday.... BUT those on the bench for Reds A can play club on Saturday. Our "Vuki" made the starting line up - after not being involved in any of the other...

    Cheers Filth, we are planning too! :) There has been a complete clean out, all through the club. From the top (president & committee) right through to the coaching staff. I think there is 1 coach who is coaching the same team as last year, so it has been a complete restructure. We don't...

    Hi BigDog, No 3rd grade this year (old 4th grade). I'm not sure what the QRU have done there as we never nominated a team in that division..... just don't have the resources (players) etc.... or maybe we did when it was named the old name in the new format or the old format with the new name or...
