Woodies had a good chance with a lineout close to the line, but Ed Craig managed to f... up his throw. Randwick seemed to bring on their A front row in the second half. The replacement hooker in particular was dynamic with ball in hand.I thought the Woods could have taken more points in that first 20 or so minutes of the game. Their tactics were perhaps a little naive. Randwick were excellent in the second half mind you.
I agree with you there.
Norths have been so consistent for a decade now but Randwick have the feeling Gordon had when they won it. Team rolling down hill gets it at the end of the season gets it.
Matt Kellahan enjoys making games about him.No doubt that Randwick was the best team and deserved to win but having Gardiner come in and referee a preliminary final like a test match ruined the game. He has no feel to the way Shute Shield has been refereed all year. Hopefully Matt Kellahan gets the GF and we have a fair contest for the Grand Final.
Feels odd that one. Wouldn’t think he’s a very sought after coach but availability being his only assetHave heard Rats have appointed Daniel Guers as 2nd grade coach - Daniel is the current GM and head of colts at Two blues (ex 2nd grade coach at rats too a while ago, plus penrith and gordon colts, and anywhere else that will take him)
He lost the power struggle fight at two blues. heard he was pimping himself out to anyone who would listen, eastwood, west harbour, gordon, rats were the only one that said yes.Feels odd that one. Wouldn’t think he’s a very sought after coach but availability being his only asset

not saying youre bad people but the coaches you gossip about here read this or there mates do. they aren't international celebrities. rugby is either a passion or if theyre lucky a job for them. a lot of the stuff youre talking about is wrong wrong anyways.Rats coach goone. Hear there are some very unhappy people there. Colts players who should be playing firsts etc. josh holmes new coach.
Do you know of any coaches or players (past/present) that have read this forum?You’re correct. Rugby forums can be harsh, but they can also be very complimentary to performers. When someone gets paid to coach Rugby they become open to criticism. Who reads it is the individual’s problem.
It should never enter personal territory which I don’t think it has.
