These points are incorrect. Questioning as to whether points have been updated from 2016???

I agree norths looked the goods in the first 20 mins then Eastwood awoke from their slumber and decided to play some rugby. Undisciplined finish to the game turned it scrappy with a few heated moments seeing a woods player carded. Unfortunately with a disgusting display of spectator aggression demonstrated towards the carded player. Comments from the stands are one thing but going down to the player whilst in the bin and Continuing the verbal abuse is another.
Unfortunate end to what could have been a good tough game of rugby.

Why thank you. I am known for my innovative thinking and intelligence and modesty
Look at 1st Grade, Sparrow, all the answers are there. Manly Marlins are 9 from 9 - is this through good fortune or hard work?

Oh FFS - that sounds like Dwyer in the 80's and POidevin any old time: its not fair we lose all our players the rep teams.
You all forget rep teams are where you found them.

Lets just imagine that the Kiwi conference is a stand alone com: thats pretty even.
Oh, guess what, NZ have won the last 2 world cups.
I wonder if thats coincidence.

It is a fact though. I didn't complain but was merely making the point that is when others are given opportunity.
If Uni had a Juniors Rep program, I would have gone there for sure. It didn't and the Norths program at the time couldn't run a chook raffle in a pub.
It is sometimes nice however to step outside the bubble of the Eastern Suburbs. We have stepped into the inner West and its not that scary.

Played for Hunters Hill - I know anything west of the harbour bridge is non rugby territory but thats not the country - you'll see that original allegation was of no allegiance to an SRU team.
HH is a Norths junior club - but I'm sure you know that

This is a forum; not a courtroom, your Honour.
So J-W is a boarder at Joeys and plays for HH on the weekends with his mates to fill in the time. Does this mean he has to pledge allegiance to HH/Norths forever? Ridiculous.
If my son attends Syd Uni, why shouldn't he play for them if that is where he now studies and lives?

Boarding in a college wouldn't be free The sponsors picking up that is part of the deal?? Must be wonderful continuing all the memories of the boarding life. Certainly makes it easier to train 4 nights a week using the appalling facilities on offer. Sounds like a real struggle. Handy having access to the physio, medical, gym's with appointed PT's etc as well.
With the team they are putting in the field if they are under the points cap then that defines that the cap is far short of where it should be and that others are over it magnifies the depth of the problem.

yet..there was a meeting earlier in the year where certain clubs wanted the points cap increased..not decreased lost. If that had of been approved, the disparity would be even greater. It will be interesting to see if the cap is increased in 2018

great to see RM2 throwing her cat amongst the pigeons and getting this thread fired up.
While there's no escaping the fact that stacking your team with superstar players creates lopsided competition and unfair advantage it seems it's a two edged sword for both the clubs and the players.
I don't know too many superstars that like the idea of riding the pine or playing in the lower grades and you'd think over the course of the season this would wear thin and eventually affect retention/loyalty etc.
....And for those in the remaining clubs its a chance to test themselves against the supposed best of the best for 4-6 games a year, which for those that want to progress their rugby, would be better than playing in a comp where all teams had an even spread of talent. just sayin'...
A reduction in the cap to 30 in ones, 15 in twos and 0 in threes with a two point deduction in competition points every time a side is fielded above those numbers may help

It is very expensive..
In 1st Grade, I think the Manly Marlins should play with 14 players next week because they have won 9/9 - its not fair. What can we do to stop them winning. Surely they must have rigged the system?
