Went to last week's match in the downpour at CSU- all very similar in rest of Central West. Bulldogs were intent in knocking the Students off- but were stunned with CSU's sweeping backlines movements resulting in 2 tries to CSU by half-time. Bulldogs scored a dopgged forwards try just prior to...

Kindly advise the basis of your assertion that this is a first year for the majority of the CAS selectors. I don't think this is correct at all.

Creely was injured for both Barker & Waverley games. Against Trinity he came off with 10 minutes to go but had been instrumental in the large win. Against Aloys he scored 2 tries, the 2nd with impressive fend-off and his tackling was top-rate. Didn't see him play yesterday but I note he scored...

The Coaches have nothing to do with CAS team selection. There are some 6-8 independent selectors who attend games-both trials & competition rounds on a rostered basis and then meet up after each Saturday. I personally couldn't criticise as I've only seen 4 of the 6 teams this year. I imagine...

Trinity vs Knox- Last Saturday I somewhat reluctantly travelled to Summer Hill last Saturday. Having watched Knox play very averagelly against Oakhill and very poorly against Barker, I was not enthused -Just as well I missed the debacle against Waverley. However I had been informed the first...

I understand that CSU scored in the final minute to keep unbeaten record intact against Dubbo Roos. In the other major game it is believed Orange City defeated Narromine. City will be hosting CSU next weekend.

Wasn't there but CSU defeated Narromine in all grades to continue leading the Club Championship. Apparently it was the 1st time they have defeated Narromine in many years. I understand they travel to Dubbo this Saturday to play the Roos and the week after come up against co-leaders, Orange City...

Results for Round 4: Bathurst 19 defeated Forbes 7 Orange Emus 23 defeated Dubbo Roos 20 Orange City 45 defeated Cowra 12 Narromine 45 defeated Dubbo Rhinos 20 CSU 18 defeated Parkes 17 With the benefit of a bonus point Narromine lead other undefeated teams, Orange City & CSU. It could be...

Yes-watched Knox for second week in a row yesterday. Without Creely & Spain- the former out for 4+ weeks- I believe this could be the weakest Knox Open group in the last 20 years. Ball retention is a major worry and there is no aggression in the forwards. THe only saving grace might be that the...

Can't say I like your remarks- first time I've known it at a Knox game. Perhaps someone thought it a good idea because it was opening of the season/Gala Day for Knox. I have always held the view that you only play the National Anthem when the National team is about to play!

Results for Round 3 are: Dubbo Roos 43 defeated Bathurst 21 Orange Emus 17 defeated Parkes 0 Orange City 38 defeated Forbes 3 Narromine 50 defeated Cowra 17 CSU 31 defeated Dubbo Rhinos 28 Am informed that CSU virtually got home in the last minute in a very tight game. Picking up 1 Bonus...

Oakhill 34 defeated Knox 26 This was a real see-sawing game with the winners scoring 5 tries to 4. Oakhill have soime big units, not only in the forwards. Their No 12 seemed to terrorise Knox backline. Having said that Knox tackling was very poor and I imagine tackling bag practice will be No 1...

Blowes Cup-Round 3 @ 28//04/12: Dubbo Roos vs Bathurst Parkes vs Emus Orange City vs Forbes Narromine vs Cowra CSU vs Dubbo Rhinos

Will be going to Knox vs Oakhill game. Intel from Knox has been fairly subdued but I understand they won 2 out of 2 in a one week trip to NZ earlier in holidays.

Bit late but I was impressed with what I saw @ Chatswwd Oval on Saturday. * Programme insert commented on the fact that 24 out of 30 1st & 2nd Grade players were Gordon juniors! * Big emphasis by `Friend of Gordon' in relation to above, with support not only going to Senior Club but also their...

Courtesy of the Central West website, here are the 1st Grade results for Round 2: Parkes 28 defeated Bathurst 25 CSU 44 defeated Orange Emus 25 Orange City 17 defeated Dubbo Roos 5 Narromine 31 defeated Forbes 17 Dubbo Rhinos 34 defeated Cowra 12 Of interest is that all the away teams won...

Almost as good as his advice(for those interested in stats) that Randwick were leading penalty count 22-8!

Wasn't there but my intelligence is that CSU had a sizeable win against Emus in Orange this afternoon- more detailsother results later on.

Blowes Cup-Round 2 @ 21/04/12(Home Team listed first) Bathurst vs Parkes Emus vs CSU Dubbo vs Orange City Forbes vs Narromine Cowra vs Dubbo Rhinos

Guess each sitation is different- let's face it, it's a pretty big effort for some of these towns to field 4 teams. In Dubbo you have 2 Clubs competing for players- Roos and Rhinos. Whether the aspect of School/UNI holidays had effect I am not sure. Hopefully someone else might be able to...
