Terrible... I thought they would have gone for the penalty shot, in front of the sticks 50m out.

These late season bed shittings by Manly are become a thing of legend.

See Bowen and Lancaster played for easts colts v uni

Apparently only on for the first 5 minutes. Not sure if an attempt to qualify for Colts finals...

Interesting that you have Super Rugby contracted players playing Colts. I thought there was something in the Competition Rules that did not allow that. Got stamped out after what Sydney Uni did with Angus Bell a few years ago.

They werent full super rugby contracted on 1st January 2023, so those rules to work for them. I think Bowen was on a development contract first before being upgraded and lancaster was 7s, they can play any grade.

On the other hand, when I was playing a lot of players went straight from under 18s to grade. Some played under 21s first.

Word is there is some trouble brewing from one of the colts fixtures on the weekend where allegations of an incident occurring between someone in the crowd and a player on the field. 1st colts Souths vs Rats is the game in question.

Easts and Two Blues look to have secured new coaches for 2024. Just Warringah and Gordon left to go by looks of it.

Any announcements who they are?

Looks like all the U20s are back.

Ropata listed for Souths, Morrison for Uni, O’Donnell Norths, Wilson & Bowen for Easts

Hodge playing 15 for Manly and Kemeny 6 for Uni from recent Wallaby games…

Eastwood V Uni is a stacked game player wise. 15 guys either Aus U20s/Super Rugby/Wallabies.
