Yes I believe Brothers still have a few teams undefeated? They definitely did a few weeks ago. GPS had a similar thing a few years ago, winning Premierships in lower grades with a rather lackluster Premier Grade, and this in future translated into what has been a strong 1st and 2nd grade over...

The chat down at Brothers is that George Smith must be playing for the Reds this weekend. Played 40mins on the weekend, didn't train the other night and they have been training as if he isn't going to be playing with them.

I don't understand how the QRU would have been hoping the ARU cancelled his contract. Would the terms of his contract (specifically what would constitute a reason for termination) have not been crystal clear to all parties? Hence once the evidence was presented a while ago, police reports given...

I would hope he would know it was wrong - it's pretty apparent he put himself into a bad situation. I'm referring to the extract of your post where you reference Thorn being left in the open and essentially criticized if he were to let Hunt back into the team. Feel free to prove me wrong but...

Not sure that Thorn would 'leave himself open'. He was very transparent about leaving Frisby and Cooper out of the squad due to wanting to go in other directions, and yes attitude and 'culture' were drawn upon as reasons possibly for this but he hasn't, as far as I'm aware, come out to the...

From what I've heard it's at least Frisby, Kurindrani, Alatimu, Laoine, Setu and a few others who I can't remember off the top of my head, haven't seen this personally just heard. I notice JP Smith is in the Reds squad so I hope he'll be returning to GPS.

Have heard GPS has lost a fair whack of their Premier squad from last year

I think that would be spreading Queensland rugby resources (of which there is currently no $$$) too thin. It's one thing to give a club a promotion into the Premier comp and the perks (increased playing numbers etc.) that comes with, but if you start giving the Premier Rugby tag to a whole...

It was raised on the QPR thread what a joke the catering is, I believe they actually ran out of beer on Grand Final day. The facilities just aren't there.

The transport issue is a big one for me, it's a pain in the ass getting out of there after any decently sized game and it's not like there are pubs within walking distance where you can relax and wait for the crowds to die before jumping on a bus or getting a taxi. In regards to food and drink...

Losing that 2013 Grand Final was a real stab in the heart for the club, I agree there was nearly too much expectation to win (I mean the side did have Kerevi, Kuridrani, Frisby, Sean McMahon and Phil Kite to name a few who became full-time pros) and I think the club has learnt from that. There...

No Tuttle, Frisby, Magnay or Kurindrani for GPS?

Fred Burke must be having a cracking season - named in the starting side and on the bench!

On Samu Kerevi and playing club rugby - it's a real shame GPS didn't get over the line in 2013 when he was playing. It was definitely the best opportunity they had over the last decade with the likes of Kerevi, Kuridrani, Sean McMahon, Frisby and Phil Kite all having significant impact...

I only caught the second half and Wests looked like they definitely had GPS on the ropes for a while. The scrum really saved the day in the end. The winning try was actually a penalty try, it came after about 3 scrum infringement penalties to GPS who just kept re-packing. Great to see some real...

I'm willing to cut these guys, along with Kerevi who has also been poor defensively a bit of slack. They are in high traffic channels and yes, should be making more tackles, however, the whole defensive mindset of the Reds is clearly lacking. Once you lose confidence in someone else in the...

Article says the session they didn't attend was not compulsory. Doesn't sound like they broke any team rules and haven't done anything stupid on the piss. Sounds more to me like the media trying to gee up them being dropped. I've seen plenty of Reds and visiting players out and about after games.

Dan Carter. Can we sign Dan Carter?

Care to elaborate Dunc? Are you referring to player payments?

Yep that's fine. Doesn't change the fact that I don't believe it's a good move, just my opinion.
