For mine the Wicks were always a monty to beat the rats today but being from the silvertails v the successful tradesmen from further up the beaches chose diplomacy - the chip helps in the derby :-) .....Take a bow Pete King - go the Riff

Yep hard to disagree but given he always gets one wrong it will be Woods or Rats who ruin the perfect tipping round - the latter not backing up from heroics of last week .

No tips this week GAGRs ? MMM's colts to aim up and take result of CC into final round . Go the Highlanders

I'd favour the royal Ma'am . I know a lot of players seriously rate her and an appointment thoroughly deserved

Any early reads on CC - DB?

Well today's results prove that PM !!! Increasingly looking like a 3rd derby for the season in the form of a home semi at Manly . Through gritted teeth well done Rats

Agree with DB - selection on merit . Treweek seemed to stop hitting the line with conviction and a few defence lapses . BJ very unlucky in my view. MMM's have similar luxuries at 9 and 10.

I'll back changes at 3 north side clubs .

Agree re coping with that sort of toll . Gee in contrast the Rats have done well with what seemed to be a lack of depth at the start of the season - looking forward to round two of the derby this weekend . MMM's will need their A game in all grades as Rats players will no doubt emerge from out...

No more inflammatory posts re DB's beloved MMM's :-)

I remember the line " Brian Westlake has soft hands" I'm sure you were a deft number 10 One club is an ideal few can maintain in the global city that is Sydney sad though it is

Given Battye is not being paid by MMM's I'm thinking deciding factor re choice of club to launch the next brilliant phase of of career may have been determined by location , location , location. Shame for Penrith that one but that is the ARU's problem not Manly's we are far too busy on taking...

Reasonably objective assessment of MMM's v Beasts - almost had me to the stupid aside re late signings . Frankly the Marlins have the players to go the distance as long as the pressure of being front runners doesn't kick in - a disappointing day below par performance but still nearly stole it ...

Indeed - quite frankly not sure why the players concerned have bothered . Tough to get picked in any grade higher than they were in at Manly and a long way to training . Uni are still the benchmark no doubt

North of the Bridge centric though I am and hoping that the whole damn thing works I've got to say that the Rays will be the pit canary for all. Organised early , well connected and with Macquarie Uni on board now well resourced . Although Shute Shield players not compelled to join their nearest...

Like those classic Stevie Wonder jokes Warren Ryan can't tell anymore - ref birching a players with his cane - " just browsing! "

Uni seem to have shot to the top of player rotation list not that there's anything wrong or sinister with that .......:-)

Earning the second comes with laying down the law if not in pre game chats then first 10, not putting up with players who then want to then push the laws of the game (in that context) and most importantly consistency of decision making . Agree a gig made tougher by trying to be players' best...

Ah as I suspected or hoped - a very different scenario and encouraging - much appreciated Dave

Lead extended in Club Championship . Must check up on how it looked same time last season. A few points could decide it particularly with Uni playing Woodies again - mind you Rat park won't be a push over in 2 weeks time
