I believe depth at Souths will be a problem as the season progresses. Souths 4th grade yet to win, and 2nds & 3rds are one from three. Souths nominated a Colts 3 but they haven't played a game yet. They forfeited their last two games. Not a good situation.

The battle of the birds at Souths' Nest, Chipsy Wood will have to wait till next year. I am reliably informed that, as a result of Chipsy Wood field being destroyed and turned to a muddy potato patch against Sunnybank, the field is unplayable this weekend. Souths made a request of Norths to...

Another good win to the Magpies. Just like last week they jumped out to good margin in the first half. A couple of bad bounces of the ball, a few missed lineouts and a few penalties let GPS back into the game. Souths rallied again and had a 19 point buffer but again GPS came back but Souths held...

I think George is so good at some of the dark arts of scrummaging that he comes under very heavy scrutiny by the officials.

With Callum Lauder and Phransis Sula-Siaosi soon to return from Hong Kong, the Souths front row stocks of George Francis, Callum Lauder, Harry Holt, Trevor King, Phransis Sula-Siaosi & Peter Halapio will be extremely competitive. George Francis is much fitter in 2025. He has put in longer than...

Nobody is saying that there isn't a lot of talent in the Premier Grade squad and they may well perform to the same level or better than 2024. All true supporters, hope so. What many stalwarts and general supporters of Souths are most concerned with is the fact that it appears that the lower...

Word that I have is that Assistant Coaches Rama Chand and Ray Thomas and Director of Rugby and High Performance, Jason Jones will take over. I don't know if the Club will look to engage a new Head Coach from outside that group.

I'm interested in how Souths are going to continue to fund the Clubhouse renovations, other than by ongoing Government and Council grants. They made a very modest profit last year and a massive loss the year before and that's before all this upheaval. I am sure that revenue will be down...

The loss of players at Souths is going to have a huge impact on club revenue. I know that clubs don't pocket many $ out of subs after having to fork out for insurance, team rego. fees, referee levies etc. but loosing these lower grade players will hurt the beer and food sales. They are the...

I don't have any knowledge of what his plans are.

The word is out that Garrick Morgan, last night, without any pre-notice to players, stepped down as Souths Prems Head Coach. What a s#@t show at Souths. Indeed, poor "Doubles" Daley and Ian "Camo" Cameron will be turning in their graves. The once great Club of the late '80's and the decade of...

Yes very disappointing that a bit over a week out from the first competition games Souths are calling for players for a 3rd grade. Never, in my 55 years association with Souths, have they ever struggled for players for 3rd grade. It was only 2022 that Souths had 2nds, 3rds, 4ths, 5ths & 6ths in...

Yes, I think depth might be an issue. Souths just put out a call across their media and Socials for extra players for 3rd & 4th grade. Inviting players to training tomorrow night and trials against Wests on Saturday.

I watched the Souths v Norths trial. It was a try fest. Souths came out on top 8 tries and 6 conversions(52 points) to Norths 7 tries(not sure how many conversions). Souths tries were the better constructed but penalties and an inability to secure kick off possession, as well as errant lineout...

The glory years of 1986-2000 at Souths, where they appeared in 13 Grand Finals, winning 9 titles. The Magnificent Seven of 1992: Tom Lawton, Dan Crowley, Garrick Morgan, Troy Coker, Sam Scott-Young, Tim Horan and Jason Little.

Another player lost to Souths. Tye James playing for London Scottish. Not sure if he will be back at Chipsy Wood at the end of the NH season.

Souths is less at $560 for Grades Men, $440 for Women and Under 20 Colts.

Callum Lauder from Souths gone to Hong Kong RUFC

Not really a surprise given that their very popular and successful coaching group were sacked half through the season. At the time, there was immediate talk of player defections as a result. The coaches have moved to Wests and maybe these players see a path to grades under the direction of...

Souths pre-season commenced on Tuesday night.
