So what about the team members in the club team? If the boy can't be committed to any team that he plays in be it rugby, soccer. Cricket - then don't join the team! Life is about choices mate sometimes the boy has to make a choice cos not everything is about them!

So maybe the boy or the adults need to give the boy some advice - choose one pathway if you can't commit 100% of your time and focus on one team at a time. It is annoying to see some boys faking injuries so that they don't have to play on Sunday. I agree with the berries 'elitest crap'...

Agree with some of your points Malcsy. Norths were the better team on the day. Hills were just not firing! Didn't think the big name players made a difference either. Thought the Hills centres passed the ball instead of attempting to break the line and the number 8 was average I guess cos he...

No offence intended to Kellaway - Hes a great rugby player , So why did he play at the state age champs? I noticed on the NSWJRU list it stipulates that AK (Andrew Kellaway) is from Hunters Hill. Whatever happened to transperancy?

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I seem to remember that when the Zone teams were selected there was discussion about kellaway having made himself 'unavailable' for selection wanting to concentrate on schools selection? IMO his choice was ultimately saying that he did not wish to represent...

X Lol - its going to be a good show of rugby I'm hoping! And it doesn't really make sense that Jamo Clark can play in the Sydney team but not be eligible to play in the semi finals?! Mind you a lot of sjru goings on don't make sense or rules get changed to suit Bahahaha ! May common sense...

I am a big fan of Cam Orr. He is a true leader - leads by example, always talks to his pack, unafraid to question the ref about decisions and is a fine young gentleman off the field! A credit to his parents I say! He would be my pick for captain of any team as he has the qualities of a fine captain.

Totally agree Beaver!! The problem is, to win is what it's all about because the coaches are on show as well! What a mess Graham Henry made at the last RWC by not using his bench at the right time, and Robbie has been accused of the same when he took over the Wallabies! I support the "fair game...

Can someone please list the NSW team or has it not yet been announced?

He played but didn't stand out. Perhaps because he just arrived after a game of league but he tends to hold on to the ball too long and doesn't pass when he should. He's got a good build for either game and that's about the only thing I noticed about him. Look forward to seeing some more of him...

The bitching on the thread is so funny it's ridiculous! I do agree with Newbs that any financial gain for service indicates professional environment. During the state champ training a number of scholarship holding players were INSTRUCTED by their sportmaster when to play trial games and when...

IMO it doesn't really matter whether the boys choose to go either way as there will be boys who will step up and replace them! If its a career and money that they want they're best to stick with union bcos its played in more countries around the world.

Confirms why I can't stand the poms! Trying to do their psychological shite! Anyone to win but the poms!

Our son has to face similar opposition so we 'borrowed' some of his older heavier cousins so that we could teach him how to tackle kids that size without getting injured. It works but if all else fails swinging on the jersey eventually gets them lol

You make some good points there northman. At the end of the day to be able to play outstanding rugby with skill is a talent and gift for some kids just as being able to play a musical instrument or academic brilliance. Our kids are going to be upset in situations where they've worked hard to...

I think the Trinity .boys are deserving of their selections especially Whicker who missed our last year even though I thought he deserved selection. The selection of Coffill would be my only question mark. I couldn't see anything that gave him the edge over any other hooker except that he is in...

When choosing your "dream teams" try to be unlike the selectors and choose players for their all round ability to play the position - "who can throw the ball in straight in a lineout" gave me a laugh lol

Well I hope the SJRU boys win! But from the discussions on this thread they do appear to be the weaker side. They have plenty of time for training so the boys need to look after themselves to limit injuries. Hope to be able to get to their games.

Bugger all opportunity then for the Barkell to even see ANY CAS U16 players in action, unless they are playing up in 1sts - but then I understand from other comments in this thread that he would have to nick off and fullfill his obligations to Norths Colts, so he doesn't even get to watch them...

I have said previously to show transparency in the system players need to be able to ask and be told why they weren't selected and what areas of their game need to be developed. What happened to Cale Angeloni? Did he get injured or is another casualty of the selection process?
