    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    No Dave, not necessarily . It differs from year on year and depends on a number of factors. But in the main ( in QLD at least ) it is a fabulous platform for boys from Central and North QLD to test themselves against their City peers. In terms of the boys from the South East corner , yes ...

    Well it appears he does have other irons / interests - all of which may be more difficult to give attention to if you are at the top level in pro sports Choice is a marvellous thing

    @ Rugby Follower 11 was doing what he should . He scored by being put into space and finishing - and the play you refer to was his brilliance in broken play and/or on kick return in broken play He is a broken field wunderkind That's what players like him in his position with the talent to...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    And surprisingly the ball dominance by the loose forwards through this comp on a couple of the teams in particular has been pretty interesting There were a couple of the games in the first round where loosies for 3 x different teams , on their own , dominated at least 30% to 40% of their...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    I'm not sure I have seen A LOT of extended ball carrying by all players in all positions across all teams in this competition . And I've seen all QLD Teams play except Central QLD . Its hard when players come together in assembled teams without a lot of familiarity or time together to get...

    @CC keep the score close ? C'mon .......there was a bees dick in it all game Ipswich kick the conversion on the first try they win the game on the buzzer. That's not"keeping the score close" @ Lute 13 did get a opportunity but the quality of the opportunity through a combination of...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Plenty of pluck by Gold . And yes - stout goal line and mid field defense However Gold defense was made to look a lot better through the refusal of Ipswich midfield to move the ball to the open man once the line was broken ( which it was repeatedly ) It's the story of Ipswich's JGC campaign...

    That's all cool but we will continue to turn it over and fail to convert in the strike zone until we clean Coaching House and revisit our shape and structures ( which are appallingly bad - and were last season too ) That and trying to find a 10 who can challenge and square to the line ( and a...

    Reds 2016

    Agree on Holmes. The lone bright spot Disagree on Tui - lack of awareness saw him miss he rotation across from the ruck to the close off the inside channel that led to the inside ball to Hooper and the Tah's try ( the young 12 on debut ) Lack of awareness , smarts and athleticism saw him...

    And he wiped them like a dirty ass and made no effort to engage post match Probably had to go and brush up on his French Douche move

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Refs aren't perfect but the constant badgering of Refs by Coaches and Supporters on the sidelines during games is really , really bad Rugby has a problem on its hands that it needs to fix otherwise if you are an aspiring Ref why would you bother ? It's almost getting to a stage where it's not...

    Waratahs v Reds Rnd 1 2016

    Greg Holmes was a lone bright spot Lol at Chris Feuia - Sautia trying to " Gene Miles" KB (Kurtley Beale) . Frisby drifts a lot before he picks up runners and shape and structure is God awful and a continuation on of last season where our ball carriers get isolated a ton . How many turnovers last night in...

    ARU Junior Gold Cup - National Junior Championships

    Outside of some good individual performances here and there , the Ipswich Team were really off against Blue - especially in the first half. In the 2nd half they broke their line almost at will but lack of pass recognition to finish off line breaks impacted the score The best of Blue forwards...
