My tips(for what they're worth): Brothers by 8-10 over Bond Easts by 15 over GPS Sunnybank by 25 over Norths Wests by 10 over Souths Heavies with the Bye this week after a big win last week.

Just had a quick look for that on the Reds YouTube site. The game is up there. An absolute shocker of a call from the referee and an awful reaction from the players and crowd. I can't really make out what he said now correct me if I'm wrong but he says something to the tune of "you had two there...

I was under the impression Meni was out for the season...obviously poor info. Uni v Wests on the weekend was an absolute cracker of a game, watch out for Wests to cause some upsets. Uni started well and scored 2 tries early and then Wests held sway for most of the game save for a few fleeting...

Second hand info... Wests were down to 14 from about 15/20mins with the 10 getting red carded and were leading 12-5 with about 5mins to go. Dropped the ball over the line to finish the tie...Easts went coast to coast to score from the resultant scrum and tie it up and then the 13 from Easts...

Wests Defence in that Colts game was really poor, they just let the Easts 10 do what he wished, never closed him down. It finished 3 tries to 1 not 5 to 1 by the way. The Wests set-piece is extremely strong as seems to be a theme over there these days, the scrum ran over the top of Easts 4/5...

@gungenia completely agree about 16A. NC really impressive 19-0 win, that scrum....it was outstanding...I'm a bit of a scrum tragic and it was great to see the technical skills. 15A was a good game, really enjoyable watch. NC just had too much in the end.

Yes that front row was a bit of a revelation last year, obviously some hard work done in the off season by them. The issue will be that most, if not all, of last years squads are still available so that may inhibit them. I'm hoping that the idea for the NRC at its inception(bridging the gap as...

The centre from Wests surely will get a gig, Lefau, the guy with the long hair. Also I'm sure some of the guys coming out of Colts(Rodda, M. Jones, Sham Vui). Similar to what they did last year with Korczyk and Wilkin etc

@taipan168 No worries. No idea why they didn't update...possibly went to the printer with his name very early in the week but I think with an injury they didn't want to risk him due to a big game this week against a very good BBC outfit. Jack Tully is the hooker or 6 for the 2nds.

Kalala Meni did not play...he was injured and was doing the water...his brother was the 13. The back row for NC was Jack Tully, Tom Zappala and Reece Hewat. Jack Tully got carded just before HT.

Very disappointing to hear the Premier Colts game is lost tomorrow because that round 1 game was a cracker, the toughest one we have had all year in real terms, especially up front. Comments such as the above regarding "colour and body parts"(I'm inferring what was said) have no place in the...

8v7 isn't a schooling, Second row for Wests got binned for a stupid punch and then the scrum dominance was there until they were restored to 15...take the rose tinted spectacles off. When it was 8v8 it was the best contest all year that I've seen. All the props yesterday were outstanding in...

In relation to the above re: Jake Newell and getting binned...I was there for the game and there was only 7 in the pack for Wests wen he got binned. When they had 8 on the field Wests had the wood on them...Sione Na'a Helu and Newell wouldn't look out of place in NRC if you want scrummagers. The...

Steph Van Der Walt at Souths should get a call up at NRC time. Tyrone Lefau and Luke Ferry at Wests would be two great bolters, Tim Smith won't be far away. I'm sure the Reds are making sure that the Tongan Thor will play as much NRC as possible to improve his scrummaging because he is...

There is not one new kid in 15A this year at NC. Best team I've ever seen at those age grades. Give the credit where it's due, good coaching and a great culture allied to quality players.

At Fursden Road yesterday for 15,16 upwards. 15's at a canter as expected. 16's 26-12 to NC, they should have won by 40 at least. BSHS scored a length of the field interception in first couple of mins and then barely touched the ball for rest of half. NC will go close. 1sts was a walk in the...

Went to Sylvan Road for the 3 games mentioned, all hotly contested games and well done to the doggies...the Wests scrum in Colts demolished Sunnybank. In premier grade whilst they had their full compliment on the field they gave Sunnybank the runaround especially for that last try. I am not sure...

Swansong stop the video one second after engagement and look where the ball is..in the 9's hands, Sunnybank are already trying to push off the mark(free kick) and the tight head has completely overextended. The only binding issue here is that the Sunnybank tighthead is on the back of the arm of...

In relation to the Wests Scrum I believe there is a young Irish guy and former Wallaby prop Andrew Heath doing the scrum at the Kennel...very impressive last week against Brothers(after the filth had given Uni a touch up the week before). The call from the ref is not correct and the integrity of...
