Shute Shield 2012

[Blackers13]

Horne is definatly a junior

I agree with Tahboy for once, Rob Horne played junior reps for SD's

 

[Knuckles]

It was the Tahs
Definatly not Souths

Oh really?

 

[Knuckles]

Yeh i wouldnt say souths all the players that played for souths from the tahs were mostly juniors.

Who suited up for easts besides Mckibbon?

So you mean to tell me John Ulugia, Sita Timani, Lopeti Timani, Grayson Hart, Kane Douglas, Atieli Pakalani were all Souths juniors do you.

What else you got? I've only come down in the last shower!!!

Goose!

You made your point, why the name calling?

Come on Knuckles

You of all people should know that The Shire is very well known as being a bastion of multiculturalism. All the Hobbits all have names like Tuilawa, Tivasevi, El Omari, Nadeem, Ngatai, and Pewharangi, don't they?

Course they would have come up through the Hobbits Juniors Programme.

 

[Knuckles]

Knuckles,
I though Cecil Hilterbrand may have got a look in as well.
K. Ale V's w Brame, another throw up there.
and I'd have Ed Gower over Adam Coleman - on par as player, I'm looking at hard nose experience that is value in the tight stuff.

I wouldn't. No question Gower is tough, but Coleman aint no shrinking violet either. Coleman is superb in the lineout and around the field, and despite the scoreline in the semi, Parra won 100% of their own lineouts and stole some Manly ball too.

I'll bet $500 Coleman gets a contract to Super rugby before Gower does! Any takers?

Horne is definatly a junior

He went to Georges River College - Oatley Senior Campus and represented Sydney East in the 2006 and 2007 CHS schools rugby championships in Camden and Warringah. So I would think he would be a Sths junior.

Read somewhere that RH was an Oatley Club junior.

 

[Knuckles]

Latest rumours:

• Matt Briggs to be Assistant Coach to Mark Bakewell at Easts

• Daniel Manu sacked at Wests

• Tim Lane leaving Manly

• Parramatta have signed 3 Internationals - a former Argentinian Test tighthead, another former All Black fullback (who will be available from end of April for rest of season) and a former Springbok back who only played 2 or 3 Tests but has been in France since 2004.

• Jason Grier returning to Warringah from Gordon

Really liked what I saw of Coleman this year. That bloke could have a future in a Super rugby franchise.

Why would you play a colt in third grade (unless it is a points issue)

 

[Rob]

Why would you play a colt in third grade (unless it is a points issue)

It was not a points issue. He is an Eastwood junior. He had played first grade colts for 3 years already and was looking for a change

 

[I like to watch]

This should have been his fourth year in colts 1's,and he can only make thirds in grade?
There is plenty of depth in the joint!
