    RANT of the WEEK

    I made my first class debut for my clubs 1st XV on the weekend in front of a couple hundred people (a little nervous as i was the only U23 in the team), I then played in the fourths and fifths fixtures for fun and the guys that were playing were all in their late thirties and forties was good...

    Height and Weight Exaggerations in Rugby

    From your picture ruggo it puts willy g closer to the figure of 170cm than 175cm. JOC (James O'Connor) is quoted on the ARU site as 180cm and 88kgs. I would expect that to be about 178cm and 83/84 kgs there is no way he is 88

    Height and Weight Exaggerations in Rugby

    Just to try and make the opposition more afraid I guess. Jason: thats what I mean obviously the Boks will have a bigger pack but the Wallabies probably try and pad it out a bit to seem bigger. I know a few of the England u18 and u20 players and they always have their stats bumped up. Last year...

    Height and Weight Exaggerations in Rugby

    Everyone has heard about the tactics of teams to bump up their schoolboys height and weight stats. It also seems that some professional teams have also been fond of this approach. Some notable examples: Will Genia listed at 182cm and weight of 85kgs. Others have listed him as 174cm and...

    2011 Rnd 1 Reds v Force

    Well Rod is obviously unbelievably rapid, I don't know Mitch Felsman. Aidan caught up with JOC (James O'Connor) pretty quick though was impressive. A finger and someone else had no chance of catching him

    Blues vs Crusaders - 2011R01

    When I was watching the game I was thinking that it was the most physical game of rugby I had ever seen. The rucking tackling and running were destructive from both teamsl Kaino was immense as well, in the early years of the 2000's the all blacks seemed to be built around speed, over the past...

    2011 Rnd 1 Reds v Force

    He could but he is younger than Quade and defence isn't his biggest strength. Would probably have to keep quade at 10 on scrums and let him learn how to defend. Hynes was solid but he didnt return many kicks and that Is one of Aidan's best skills

    2011 Rnd 1 Reds v Force

    Aidan Toua is rapid. Thought JOC (James O'Connor) was quality apart from the kick out on the full, he looked shattered after his run. Quade was pretty average with some poor decisions. Rod davies showed some steel in defence I havent seen before. Hynes was dominant in defence on a lot of occasions but I'd like...

    Brumbies 2011

    I really dont know why they aren't starting MT at 10. Last year he was quality in the games he played and easily outshone Gits. As good as Coleman is i still think Gits should be 12 with MT at 10

    6 Nations 2011

    I thought Haskell had a good game dynamic running, should be on the bench when croft and moody come back. Scotlands passing was so bad, Joe ansbro had three shocking passes shot at him over the match. Max evans an alumni of my alma mater was ever dangerous and should be playing at 13. From...

    Nowra Trials - Tahs v Force and Junior Tahs v Force A

    So glad Graham hasn't shoved him on the wing, 10 and 12 are where he is most dangerous. I thought he played well at 10 last year much better than Harris and probably still better than Hill

    Brumbies 2011

    Ash: the canes wings, Savea and Taylor Julian savea: NZ U20 star winger scored a few spectacuar tries in the JWC last year. He was also part of the 2007 nz schools team and I think he played 13, hes quite a handful and has been likened to a certain Jonah by a few people. This year he also...
