Next Rugby AU appointment should be a selector based in the UK/ Japan. We need to accept our depth is playing globally.

Nc 15 out for rest of season I believe. Based on results of Nudgee B teams in all age groups Nudgee depth definitely a strength of the Nudgee rugby program.

if you don’t make finals for years yes list management is a problem.

Was it suppose to be contested scrums this week? Nudgee v State high in under16s A and b was uncontested.

Sadly not sure that State High has ever had to worry too much about crowd control at the Rugby.

With the new Covid rules for events will there be a pregame Terrace Nudgee lunch? Hope so, top day. Can’t wait for GPS Rugby to start.

Robert has always played at 12 at age level for Nudgee. Power and inside step is his strength rather than finishing speed. Talented player but not wing in my opinion, Good enough and big enough to get game time at 12 or 13 in first XV this year even though in year 10.

Could be a lottery with such a short preparation time and Fitness combinations and selections will be a big issue. Will be very interesting to see which individuals showed the most disciple to train alone. A few big lads may well struggle to get selected for firsts in the early rounds.

So when does the gps season start? Is it definitely happening?

Interesting that the schools with the highest rugby scholarships also have the highest rugby participation rates.

Great that a National club competition is being discussed or offered as part of media package but the true cost of participation for clubs will be the key to long term viability and structure. Every club will want to be involved but will they have the finances to actually step up. This...

So any news on new large fast lads arriving first week of the new school year?

Training run at best against a very young opposition. Some nice combinations developing and much hope for seasons ahead.

Phil Mooney did a great job with young talent that Link crafted quickly after taking over, into a super rugby winning team. Could Mooney have done the job we will never know? I hope Thorn is given that opportunity but at some point on field results are the only things that matter. A passmark of...

The clubs who participate need to own (share in) the competition and the broadcast rights. Sanzaar by its very nature is mandated to operate in the interest of the national bodies. This is a fundamental flaw and will always restrict the potential of Super Rugby. The focus should be on what the...

I wonder if Cheika even watched England V All Blacks game last night and thought fuck analysis of the opposition might be worth a go.

A sense of relief when the wallabies lost the quarter final as we all knew it was the end of Cheika. Now a few days later I am angry that Australian Rugby let it get to this. The Cheika Era has been an absolute debacle. I don’t think the press or public should just let him slide off either with...

Hooper work rate is great but English lads hit harder and more influential at breakdown especially clean out.

Curry and Underhill superior to both. Should be great to watch who has most influence.
