A fitting tribute to Sayley........from one of his protege's....(Acknowledgement to Rugby.com.au) Wallabies coach Michael Cheika counted Jeff Sayle as a coach, a mentor and a mate. After Sayle's passing today, Cheika sat down in Tokyo and wrote his friend a letter. "To Sayley, The news this...

RIP "Sayley" It’s with an extremely heavy heart that Randwick DRUFC announces the passing of Jeffrey Leonard Sayle. Jeffrey died peacefully last night in Prince of Wales Hospital, Randwick after a long and courageous health battle. Jeffrey was a much loved figure and absolute legend in the...

Not sure if this is the correct thread.......... Testimonial match for Rob Horne being played at Twickenham tomorrow (Sat 6/10) - between Leicester Tigers and Northampton Saints Being shown on live on Fox , I believe - midnight +/-AEST. Horne played for the Saints - and by all reports was...

Sorry Derpus, If you have / had been involved with a) any junior club trying to serve a beer on a Friday night, b) any Subbies match on a Saturday afternoon, c) had sons (or daughters) undertaking bar work to earrn a quid - you would comprehend that it is not perverse as such - it is called the...

Without wanting to be seen to be condoning such behaviour (which I don't) - if they were that p*ssed - what the hell were the bar staff doing serving them in the first place ??!!

Coogee Oval turned on a wonderful day of rugby for the special day organised to pay tribute to 3 of Randwick's true greats who had passed in recent times - Peter Johnson, Sir Nicholas Shehadie and Ken Catchpole. With members of each of the players families present, President Bob Dwyer paid...

F4E - probably the wrong thread, so apologies in advance.. I don't have a copy of the SRU competition rules (yet) - however, IF the competition rules refer ONLY to Australian (U20) or Australian A (U20) players, then perhaps there is a flaw in the competition rules. Remembering that the...

Pfitzy Try Goodbuddy Sport (goodbuddy.com.au) That's where our Jnrs / Snrs we have bought them from in the past. Cheers The Hound

Every parent should read this article....... Rugby is a contact sport - no doubt about that, and it is what many who play and watch actually love about it. The administrators - from the top down - need to tweak the way they coach their players to minimize the risk of this dreadful outcome. As a...

Really bad luck for Lance - looks like his arm is broken....which undoubtedly mucked pre-match plans around. Would be interested to find out if they actually play rugby on that pitch - someone has already mentioned how poorly prepared the surface was - and perhaps even worse than AAMI... Hard...

The penalty count is certainly impressive.....if you area Baa Baa's supporter ! Wonder what the Wallaby XV could do if they had a little clean ball ?

It does now say "Live from 6.45 AM........maybe the mice running the power wheel at Rugby HQ haven't had time to warm up yet !

Read the article earlier today. I am not sufficiently knowledgeable to comment on the specifics from a medical perspective - however, wouldn't a logical first step be for referees ( and A/R's !) to start policing the "tackle / contact below the arm pits" & the "head is totally out of bounds"...

I may get the dates slightly out of kilter - however I seem to recall watching a match played at the Shanghai Hairy Crabs home ground ( in Shanghai, naturally !) in the late 90's / very early 2000's between Gordon & Randwick - as part of an initiative called the Ansett Cup....( so that gives you...

3rd Grade Colts G/F - Uni up over Easts ( not sure of score - maybe 20 odd to 10'ish....apologies, carrier pigeon dropped her note book) 2nd Grade Colts - Randwick avenged last year's loss to Uni with a good win - 34 - 27 ( to add to their 2nd Grade G/F win over Easts yesterday) 1st Grade...

Another observation..... Last night, the field looked like it was in pretty good condition with the grass being cut a bit shorter than "normal". With the westerly winds blowing - they played in slightly drier conditions too.........and all of a sudden, the amount of dropped ball from recent...

Once a player is on the air, his safety must be sacrosanct. This applies to BOTH teams - and for example, could also apply in a lineout where the jumpers' supports "drop" him. If spectators want the spectacle of players leaping into the air etc - then the Ref MUST support them and their...

This article appeared in the SMH today ( Courtesy SMH / Andrew Webster - I hope that's the right form of recognition ?) I wasn't quite sure where to post it - so thought the Tah's site the best...

Further to the recent comments about Councils and rugby ovals, I sincerely hope that Council's in NSW are not influenced by the attached.....even if it is in Victoria ! (PS - Are they Rugby Posts or 3Sticks........??)...

@HJ, Sorry to digress a moment .....have been waiting on the phone for ages - so thought I would have a look at the NSWRU site for something to do ! I hope they have a new intern on board........ With reference to your post at #1415 regarding the potential finals series matches (which I...
