    John I. Dent Cup 2016 - ACT Premier Rugby

    Couldn't agree more! What a great day of footy. The Vikings scrum was hopeless I don't know what the answer is there. I saw Mcgrath warming up. Which I guess means he's on the come back trail which should help. He had a long conversation with the replacement prop. Whatever he said seemed to...

    John I. Dent Cup 2016 - ACT Premier Rugby

    Any inside word on the sides for this weekend? I can't see Vikings changing much. Ah Wong out (with 10s) Butler out (with 10s) Powell wasn't named in 10s presumably as injury cover for wallabies (he could still play) Sio left out of wallabies squad but I doubt they force him to play club...

    John I. Dent Cup 2016 - ACT Premier Rugby

    No surprises at Viking park. 1st grade Vikings 61 uni 3 2nds 50 to 17 Colts 70 to 33 Didn't watch much of colts or 2nd grade. But interesting to note Vikings did Uni in colts by close to 100 points last time. So good to see some improvement. In first grade. Vikings we're just too...

    John I. Dent Cup 2016 - ACT Premier Rugby

    I didn't realise Queensland country got the axe as well? I know the stars did. It sorta helps my argument anyway there's no real bigger picture thinking. I doubt we'll see two teams in Canberra ever but it's a nice dream to have. It would be nice to see as many club players as possible having...

    John I. Dent Cup 2016 - ACT Premier Rugby

    The NRC needs to be about development. With development comes opportunity so regardless of if you're 18 or 35 if you're given the opportunity to play at a higher level you may impress the right person and find yourself with a super rugby contract. I think my real problem with having the one...

    John I. Dent Cup 2016 - ACT Premier Rugby

    That's what everyone keeps telling me. But I feel like it's necessary take the losses and role with them until the competition becomes sustainable. You can't tell me that UC doesn't have enough cash to run its own team? And I'm sure the Vikings could fund their own team as well? Any way it's a...

    John I. Dent Cup 2016 - ACT Premier Rugby

    I might be a bit late to the party..... I've been away. Just had a look at the NRC squad. Probably some guys who'll be a bit disappointed but it's certainly a better representation of club rugby as a whole than last years squad. Does anyone know if there's a limit on super contracted players...

    John I. Dent Cup 2016 - ACT Premier Rugby

    Yeah it's really good. Most of what I've read has been really positive and at the end of the day we're all obviously fans of this competition. So it's really good to see the guys involved in this forum taking a personal interest. And to be honest some of the reports I've seen on here have been...

    John I. Dent Cup 2016 - ACT Premier Rugby

    Hey guys long time follower first time poster. I've got a little info on the Vikings side for this weekend. Mcgrath is out with a knee injury not sure if he'll play again this year. Thompson is also out for a few weeks. Looks like henman might get the start over Bowden at half back. Any...

    Andrew Robinson, senio (can't spell his last name) and Liam McGrath are all playing for the Sydney Stars. Any word on if they're returning to Tuggeranong for next year?

    Canberra Vikings - Offical NRC Team Thread

    Yeah I'd say there's quite a few blokes on that list who haven't been training with the squad. From what I understand it's been a bit hard to organise. because everything has had to be done on the fly. Which is to be expected. Those are just guys I've seen play this year who seemed to stand out...

    Canberra Vikings - Offical NRC Team Thread

    Certainly interesting to speculate who will be involved this year. But I understand a lot of guys have already begun to train with this squad? I could be wrong. I've been watching a fair bit this year and I'm not sure what you guys think but based on form and who from the brums is available this...
