Many thanks for posting that 'Steppa. Being at Nth Parramatta today, it was difficult to get any proper handle on the drama unfolding over at New. Spectacular finish, and congrats to the boys in Black and White, and to View for an all but heroic performance. Baz Lurhman couldn't have directed...

Scots 31 def. Kings 13 F/T

BRILLIANT Az!!

The form-guide says there'll be a shared 1st XV Premiership at the end of Saturday - Scots and Newington. Who'd seriously doubt it after the 9 Rounds gone? Shore and Joeys can no longer influence the outcome of this year's Comp, though Shore at home can tie up bragging rights on the Season's...

Reply #3, GG. GG, just to let you know I flagged the incorrect try attribution to LG, and he's going to correct the Blog piece and scoring summary to Chris Scott (6). Now, as towhat the RV Ground Announcer was watching or being 'fed', am not sure, but he may not have been any better...

Just did watch that 'Steppa vid, GG, and I agree with you. Scott was clearly the scorer of both of those tries.

Reply #2, GG. The AAGPS website has that second rolling maul try that we're talking about, as being scored as I'd taken it down, by Alex Hamilton (2). I also checked with my blind Ref mate, and his notes were taken per the ground announcer, giving that one to Hamilton too. Hopefully my mate's...

Thanks GG. As flagged, I went from the View program as issued and whatever I thought I heard as the announcement of the relevant try scorers, being unsighted as I was at the Northern end on those 'push over' tries down at the far City end. If the second rolling maul scored was also by Chris...

My bad then BW. I went solely from the program listing of McGregor playing at 10. (Oddly enough, early on, I did ask a mate who I thought actually may have had better eyesight than mine, and who'd reff'd JMcG for years, if "that was McGregor?" Receiving an affirmative, I'd thought nothing...

Sideline chatter yesterday on Prindiville was that he had picked up an injury earlier in the week. His listed replacement, Strath Yeo (11), played the whole match and I thought had a good game. (Yeo played at the beginning of the season, but got hurt in one of the early games, maybe in Round 2...

It may not necessarily be "Big" King, but in context, with the Premiership all but dcided, the Nudge's final home game against their GT cousins could be memorable for TGWW ('The Great WarrenWobble's') possible "outing" at half-time. William Wallace seems to be all over it, and I would need to...

For Cash & Co... Riverview vs Scots A 'game played in two halves', if ever there was one. A 12-try "Festival of the Boot", 7 tries to 5. T'was a scratchy start from both sides, with "dropsies" and offside penalties killing early momentum. View settled first, and off early dominant displays...

I'm with you Tahspark in terms of looking out for, and looking after ol' mate Azzuri in whatever becomes the "aftermath" on Saturday pm at Jack's. Treat him gently you RM's (or not)! ;) I've just got back into Telstra range,and it'd seem Az has gone shopping in the meantime for a new Avatar...

Ahhhh, Az. A revisionist historian of some note you may be, but a theologian and a modernist to boot, who'd figure?? (obviously not RM2!), mixing saucy 16th century activities (for the unannointed, see a couple of pages back...!), and with some up-to-date social-media webiscites??

Add that one to the GAGR Gold pile, Az! (Will refer back to it when am in need of a good chortle.) :) :)

Reaching out to Uncle Jim (Belshaw), Executive Pastor of the Church of 3rds. With Grammar taking their Bye this week, and Joeys hosting Kings at home (and looking undeniable for all the Premiership chocolates), the battle for a podium finish would seem to come down to this weekend's Scots...

Happy, gee I hope you were only referring to a non-operable 'reply' function... ;)

Indeed NIS. Took too quick a peek at the HJ Comp summary and went all dyslexic between New's Rnd 9 and Rnd 10 match locations. My bad. Apologies. Shoremen at home will no doubt involve an abundance of the Comp's leading pies (assuming Azzuri hasn't swung by enroute to Hunters Hill), and...

Round 9, 1st XV games, 29/8 1. Riverview vs Scots - my MoTR (Match of The Round) Kings did it last Saturday, bouncing straight back after their own "week before horribilis" at the hands of Newington in the prior Round 7, but then, at home, putting it all over Round 8 match favourites...

Hey Az, Sounds like you better bring with you your chain-mail meshing, largest shield and your 6-foot broadsword!
