G'day everyone,
Just wanted to say thanks to all our contributors for another great season on Green and Gold Rugby! As I've said a million times this year, the 2014 competition was genuinely close, a well fought contest and a great season to be involved in. Congratulations to the winners, commiserations to the bridesmaids, onwards and upwards in 2015!!
Just out of interest, the 2014 season has seen the SIRU thread on GAGR grow significantly. When this thread originally kicked off in 2011, we had roughly 9,000 hits and 100 posts, 2012 saw us jump to roughly 25,000 hits and 153 posts, 2013 jumped again to nearly 30,000 hits with 208 posts but we've finally cracked the 50k mark this year at 52,652 (as of today) with a massive 401 posts.
Stats let you assume all sorts of things but I reckon those figures are pretty impressive and they show me that there is a lot of support for rugby in this area of the world out there and it's great to see that while our hits have gone through the roof, there are also more people contributing to the site which is awesome.
Enjoy the off-season and head over to
http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/threads/southern-inland-rugby-2015.14861/ for the SIRU 2015 thread for all your thoughts and insights for the season ahead.
See you all here next year!
Cheers,
Sam
