    2016 Under-20 Rugby World Championships - Manchester UK

    I didn't think it was a joke at all and I don't think the players thought it was a joke either. More fools them for taking it as a joke; they can't complain about the selections then, can they. I think we need more of this type of competition to "harden" the team for the next level. Fair...

    Agree with those selections HTC. Now this is not the Queensland U20 we are talking about yet, so you can include a few more. Need 50 players in total. From Brothers: 2. Robby MaCaffrey 3. Will Wison 6. Jackson Evans 7. Tom Zappala 8. Rhys Martin 11. Lorenzo Skelton 13. Kailab Coventry and...

    O'k I think it's time to put forward your teams nominations for the Premier Colts North v Premier Colts South game (if held). So maybe if you nominate 7 players from your club and some from other clubs. Some of the players returning from last year: Premier North Colts Robby MaCaffrey -...

    Yeah, the Ref in the Bank v Brothers game made some unusual calls as well. However as said the light was not good, so maybe the benefit of the doubt required. The game, itself and in general was not ugly, thank god.

    I think maybe proof again that the individual best players ARE NOT the best team necessarily. For instance why did Jones (usually plays #6) and Scott-Young (usually plays lock), play OUT OF THEIR POSITIONS?? It shows up like fish out of water. Just watch Scott-Young on the side of the scrum...

    2016 Under-20 Rugby World Championships - Manchester UK

    I must admit that I only saw the last 10 min (1st half) and all the second. However, it seemed like our ball was not as clean as theirs, their clean-out seemed better than ours. I wasn't necessarily watching the the penalties; mainly looking at the speed of delivery to the 10. Thought the...

    2016 Under-20 Rugby World Championships - Manchester UK

    Watched the game last night, and sadly yes more of the same; Poor discipline, a back row that gets beaten time and time again at the break-down, poor hands shown by some. Lack of direction for stages of the game. I think Hugh you right can't see a better result than 5th at this stage. The last...

    Yeah watch those lights....my eyes are still sore from last night...(the straining I think).

    QLD Colts - 2016

    Yeah except for major f-ups, and assuming that games mirror the first half to a degree, I think the top four are pretty settled. The best team by a way is Bond; For the forwards I would place the top 4 as, Bond, Brothers, UQ and The Bank; for the Backs Bond, UQ, The Bank = Brothers. I think...

    HTC 1, 2, 3 of beating The Bank. Line speed, tackle and clear breakdown. Don't think your forwards would have any trouble with them, there backs have their moments, but their defence was not good. Brothers made a few changes at half time which did not work; by the time they brought back some...

    QLD Colts - 2016

    Yeah the game was good if you like running with no tackling. The defence of both backs left a lot to be desired. The kick was 15 m in 20 m out, not too hard and apparently missed according to some.....I didn't really see it. Overall an exciting game, but very difficult to see much of the play...

    No I think the #22 was Josh Coward. Saw him in the Australian Schoolboy Championships last year in Sydney. From memory was playing #15 but also played some #9 for the Victorian Schoolboys (Rebels?). Whilst a good prospect, I haven't yet pictured where he will actually play in the future. Part...

    Well 3 of the 4 have been rescheduled; the last one is UQ v Bond; any word on that one yet HTC?? Probably played within the next few weeks, especially if one of them has a bye coming up.
