WSTB win 4 out of 6 including First Grade and First Grade Colts. How's your 'clean sweep' going Gentle?

Hey Badger
The struggling Two Blues won 4/6 V Southern D's today. Could easily have been 6/6.

Happy for them. Great for Rugby. Was John Folau playing? How did he go?

And yet Parramatta/WSTB beat Souths today, who were second before the weekend.

Dominance from the Uni front row, a penalty on about 85% of their own feeds I'd say. Really stopped Norths from stringing consistent passages of play together.

Bit of a shame they couldn't find that form when they were on the big stage.

I only watched it on my phone. But thought it was a pretty entertaining game. Uni lucky to get an intercept try when North's were on attack. And North's got a penalty try for Uni collapsing a mall evened it up.

Uni probably had the run of the green from the referee but they defended very well and Norths never really looked in it till the last 5.

Yep, Norths well beaten I thought. They struggled to get over the gain line consistently and didn't turn the Uni defence around enough. Their scrum was getting dominated too, which never helps.

Does anyone know if what Cameron Shepherd said on 7's coverage about Theo Strang signing with Panasonic Wild Knights is confirmed? Is it Strang or someone else from Uni that has signed and played their last game on Saturday before leaving?

Very well deserved blakers13. I watched all the games and your fellas wanted it a lot more than ours. a brilliant victory at the end in 1s as well. congratulations to the lads. i hold my hand up and say for all the bashing ive been giving, that was well done.
were still 3rd. and your still bottom. so normal services continue - for now. (until im proved wrong again)
ps well done to your colts too.

Yes - Theo is heading up to Japan for a short stint. Not sure when he is leaving though.

A lucrative contract I assume.

Lucrative compared to what he gets from Uni!

Did we underestimate the two blues and rested some players or did we just have a few injuries?
Noticed our team list was a bit different to normal

I did ask about that, certainly didnt rest any players, although apparently a handful of players unavailable or injured. kuenzle was playing for brumby runners in a friendly vs japan A. and then the rest have injuries/niggles
its seems a lot of injuries/unavailables going around at the moment - easts were missing 6-7 through injury or tahs. uni seem to have a handful missing, norths with 7-8 out looks very different with their players injured/unavailable, gordon seem to be missing a gutful as well from their 1s and 2s
but you have to hold your hands up and play with the cards your given so credit where credit is due to all
