Nothing special about them attending brothers training - The Reds coaches have been attending most clubs training nights to interact with club coaches
He's got a great opportunity with Canterbury. I hope he grabs it with both hands.You must be referring to Jayden Christian.
Sounds like a veteran move by the 9, he caught a fish hook line and sinker which probably won them the game - like I teach my U12s, you cannot retaliate and then be upset when the referee reverses the penalty.
Picking players from the best team in the comp makes perfect sense
100% correct meet and great with coaches + pass on advice..not if the best players are at Wests, Souths, GPS or even Bond or Norths...I'd rather believe they are doing the rounds to see what may have developed in clubland during the season.
How many of their super players have they regularly had this season?
Faessler, Smith, McReight, Wilson, Flook and O'Connor all wouldn't have been sighted and Creighton, Ryan would've been with the Reds more often than not. Yet Brothers are almost 10 points clear at the top of the table with a game in hand. I'm no fan of the filth but it's hard to argue with that success when you're looking for the guys to make the next step up. I'm sure they're looking at players from other clubs too, but it makes sense that there would be more from Brothers than anywhere else right now.
It’s a reflection of the standard across QPR dropping this year. Easts has gone backwards, Bond aren’t the same team, GPS has stagnated, Wests are weaker, UQ are better than last year but much weaker than the last 10, Souths are better off a low base, Norths and Sunnybank would struggle to win reserve grade games v top 4.How many of their super players have they regularly had this season?

you must watch the games with your eyes closed, it happens everywhere - I would be more concerned about removing the grubbing coward punching that occurred, not much being said on that?AFL has done a good job of removing that kind of shithousery from the game when a player commits a free kick, would like to see the great game look to somehow penalise players doing what the Brothers #21 did. Would expect nothing less from the Filth though, whilst grubby, almost certainly won them the game.
Which reserve grade teams do you think could match it with Sunnybank and Norths?It’s a reflection of the standard across QPR dropping this year.

Apparently the Reds staff member who was meant to implement it couldn’t be bothered. It needs to happen and sooner rather than later. That will be a start to trying to make the competition fairer than what it is now.What happened to the chatter about QPR adopting the rep player loading policy that was trialled last year?
Haven't heard anything about it this year.
