Ad lib rugby is all they've got. Do you even need a coach to play ad lib rugby? The result of ad lib rugby is you lose more games than you win.

What a shame you can't LIKE your own post because I just read that again and really LIKED it! You know what I'd LIKE right now?? A SLAB of RESCHS!!

I gotta say Concord looked magnificent today. A credit to the groundsmen. Some grounds in Club Land look like there was a B & S Ball held the previous day and the field was used by an army of drunken country V8 Ute fanatics doing circle work!!

Of course Match of the round is important and should make up the majority of TV games. But let's not forget that Rugby at this level is all about the clubs,the players obviously but also the coaches and managers through to the canteen staff and the blokes who pack away the gear while everyone...

The thing that struck me today at Wests v Randwick was the massive difference between the two sides in terms of coaching. At set piece,particularly lineout Randwick look very well drilled. They've obviously put in a lot of work. Wests was the same old rubbish. Look like they had their first run...

Deegan played very well.

Lindommer, since Kent Brewery closed about ten years ago it's not really much of a shock!

$48 for a slab of Reschs? You gotta be kidding me! Not even real beer. Cheap cane sugar rubbish.

It is a truth universally acknowledged in rugby that you gotta go forward before you go wide. When William Webb Ellis picked up the ball at Rugby school and invented Rugby it was about ten minutes later that they realised you gotta go forward before you go wide. Here at Wests we don't much go...

Earlier in the season the only thing that consoled me about the loss of Treweek was it seemed that I had seen the last of David Ossafua in 1st grade. But no,it appears my wife is right,I am in fact wrong about everything. Once again I have to witness the excruciating sight of him slowly bending...

Thought the slag by Easts fans at Alofa Alofa was amusing! Same Same!!!

As I predicted Easts were too good for the Pirates today. The Beasties dominant at the breakdown. Alofa Alofa at 10 is obviously more effective as an outside back. In his defence he didn't get much good ball from his forwards or his 9. The pirates were better in the 2nd half with some changes...

Think Easts might snatch an upset tomorrow. They've got some players back and Wests have got Alofa Alofa at 10. While I admire AA as a footballer I'm not sure that 10 is his go plus they've stuck with the slow service non tackler David Ossafua at 9. Think the Pirates may be unbuckled from their...

Not sure the 16/23 Wallabies are from Shute Shield is entirely accurate. Look at some examples. Hooper picked up by Brumbies straight out of school. Nic White was in Brumbies academy and got sent to Eastwood to play one season. Phipps and Foley were colts I think put into the 7s. How many SS...

Was watching the Wests video. With 24 minutes to go Alofa Alofa and Rob Caternach come on. Caternach makes 10 tackles in 24 minutes! Most halfbacks make 10 tackles a season. Why this guy is on the bench is beyond me.

Awesome video Dave. Think the Marlins must nearly be odds on to win this year. Btw what is the CHOON? Nice! I noticed when we played Randwick how small they are as a team. That's a worry for them. Did you notice the attempted tackle by the Randwick 9 at the 1.00 mark? FFS!

Watched the game again on video. The fulltime bell goes and the ref plays the lineout. Which he should. He says to someone from Wests 'you need the point' referring to the bonus point for 4 tries. He probably didn't expect Alofa Alofa to make a magic run to set up a try!

The stands at Drummoyne are in fairly pointless positions for watching rugby. It has a good hill though. The cricket pitch is a bit of a worry. Looks like someone has dumped a couple of tons of topsoil on it! Watching the sun set over the water is quite pleasant so I enjoyed myself. Free entry...

More madness from the coaching staff at Wests. They dredged up David Ossafua from playing 12 in 3rds last week to play 9 in 1sts. If they wanted a halfback that can't tackle they should have stuck with the pommy import. At least he has a nice pass.

Wests won 29-0.
