So what's doing with SS with CV19, now it's (SS) owned by RAu? Maybe all contracted players return to Club sides? Where's a player gonna play if no-one is allowed to play? Competitors just have to compete...

A student until just recently, in actual fact... https://www.sydneyunirugby.com.au/article/nick-phipps-graduates-after-12-years

Will Dave Feltscheer get a run around off the bench for 1st Grade this weekend? It would be great to have him on the paddock for a shot at another Rats Grand Final. Any news on Hamish Angus?

If they played at the higher level, you'd lose them to your run-on side, and then when they return you'd be criticised for stacking your side with Soup players. A great season for the Woods with no Super Rugby players and MICK SNOWDEN has been a champ. A metronomic marvel. MOM today in my eyes and great...

I think Kane stuck his leg out in a deliberate trip attempt with a Manly try on, hence the 10 in the naughty chair. MMM supporters a bit too gung-ho on the eastern side coming into half-time. Had to be politely reminded that there's a second half to endure. A long trip home for them...

Your mention of Brookie next year immediately had me thinking Jubilee. Not'cos Brookie's a bad idea. I like it. But Brookie is tough for transport for those south of the bridge and beers are really limited to the Brookvale Hotel, with Manly Leagues a bit too far up the road to bother. Jubilee's...

And with Northern Suburbs not qualifying for a home final finishing 4th, having the double-header at NSO strips valuable income from two clubs. SRU are making curious decisions this year...

Warringah v Northern also on Saturday @ Pittwater. KO 3.10 as TV match. Uni/Manly 3.00 @ Camperdown. Sunday TV Match Eastwood v Easts @ Marsfield, 3.10. Each a cracker match. Depends on where you're staying.

Sydney Rugby Union get gate takings in finals, but Rats and their catering partners would certainly do great trade with another home final. NSO double header a mistake for SRU in my opinion. Too many supporters have been exposed to the weaknesses of NSO from beer and snax perspective. A...

Yup. Rubbish facilities with any sort of a crowd. Rat Park actually know how to cater. NSO ranks right up there with Leichhardt Oval - shouldn't be allowed to play if they can't properly trade.

Does the current coaching structure remain into next season? It has certainly worked well this year.

The Eastwood team that has remained virtually unchanged and without Super Rugby players flew right under the radar this year and was a serious contender for the Minor Premiership until yesterday's odd results. The Woods have had a cracking season and without much fanfare. Successful and modest...

WTF with results today? May as well play misere. Congrats to SD, Randers and Beasts. Sad to see Gordon win and get left behind. A great season for the Stags.

7 Plus or Freeview Australia should show Shute in Qld. I believe they are only geo-blocked to within Australia, not state by state.

Will David Pocock pull on a Pirates jersey this weekend against Uni? That's sure to draw a crowd to Concord - especially as it's a farewell to that ground and West Harbour are throwing a party. Hope he does and heaps of fans get to say g'day.

Did Nick captain as Prop or Second Rower? I think Angus Bell may move to the Second Row as his on-field decision making and management become part of his game. Calling lineouts and directing the breakdowns. Can he kick a goal?

Have we had a prop captain before?

Just checked the Ticketek site. 2 x Reserved Grandstand seats, front row, half-way line $50 each. GA $25 each. Kids GA $10. Kids Reserved $30.

Interesting, too, to see how Bankwest manage the traditional Shute Shield crowd. Will seating be designated or GA? If they go all Gold, silver, bronze seating no-one will show. Will supporters be able to be on-field to celebrate their team's success in each of the grades? Will supporters be able...

I reckon the crowd will be down on a North Sydney crowd. Certainly if they open all the bars and loos the facilities will be better than NSO, but Northern Suburbs worked really hard to promote that GF fixture when they moved it there ('16) and NS featured. It maintained its momentum and became a...
