Right to the heart of the problem HJ. Olmstead could possibly be back for the last couple of games but the odds are probably slim, as I understand it. A shame for Evan, he is a good kid with great skills and a voracious appetite for work. Cox has a reassessment this week I think. Leota made a 'let's see if the ribs hold up' return in the thirds last week. Not sure about Tom Woods.

Belly or Ryan09 can probably provide an update.
IMO,the boys are really missing Coxy's leadership. The penalty counts against us are a sign of ill discipline and frustration. Andrew Cox brings calmness and steel to the team and mutual respect with the refs. Hope he is back soon but was spotted in a moonboot yesterday...

We're decimated by injury at the moment. But fear not, we'll be having one hell of a crack.

And personally, I think it's a great decision by ABC to televise the match. In the last 3 seasons the Two Blues v Rats games have been SENSATIONAL games of footy. I know I'm biased, but the fact is that there's not a struck match between the sides and they both like to play a fast wide game. Hopefully whoever has the whistle recognises the intent of both teams and allows them to have a go.

Sadly though, I don't think that will happen.

Olmstead had surgery Friday. He joins a long list of injured players.

if we can hold on (and I know we will) to get to the semi's, we'll likely have Olmstead, Cox and TPN returning just when they're needed most.

A biblical reference, a snippet of club history and a genuine sense of excitement are key elements of Thommo's match report for First Grade's great victory over Warringah - now available on the club website.

Called it well, Mr Bell.

Your decimation to Team Rehab has not affected the spirit of the team.

Just saw Two Blues 2013 merchandise , very impressive.
Really liked the training shirt. Going to get one of those.
Reckon I will drop 10 kgs and feel fitter as soon as i put it on
I can see it in my mind now.......... Lobendahn to Yakopo to Fakafanua to Waza2013.......Waza2013 down the side line ,... Oops Sorry .. Got a bit carried away there.... will have to crashing back to reality of a bit over weight and very unfit.
But, damn will I look good in one of those training shirts.

Just had a look athe merchandise page - I do hope the Secure Online Payment system is close at hand...

Two observations; The Cap has no 1879 Crest... and No Club Jerseys for sale?

I know Belly is working on activating the secure payment facility (because I asked him about it just the other day). Hopefully it will be available soon. Of course, in the meantime, the form can be completed offline and either mailed or emailed to the addresses nominated on the website.

The cap has a variant of the club crest, with the 1879 emblem appearing on the peak. Additional images of the cap, showing the 1879 emblem, are available via a link on the merchandise page. The "Glory Days" jersey is available for sale at a bargain price of $65.

For those supporters able to attend Merrylands RSL Club Rugby Park, merchandise is available for purchase at the canteen.

Thanks for that - I went back and had a look, and for some reason the Club Jerseys and the Training shirt is completely covered on my screen by the 'Events & Links' Toolbar down the right hand side - I would not have known it was there if you had not drawn my attention to it - must have something to do with formatting...

Anyhow, I await the advances with the payment system...

How are the Junior teams looking for June Long Weekend State Champs?

A couple of Junior state titles would be the icing on the cake of the 2 Blues resurgence.

I see no 2 Blues team in the Under 17 State Champs, but a Penrith team has been listed. Is this a combined team with some 2 Blues boys, or has Penrith and West Harbour pinched all the Parra boys?

What grades look good for 2 Blues?

We have no teams in U17s at any of the clubs. Didn't have an U16s last year either

Whom are we putting to the sword this weekend? (i am being over-confident, simply becos i can again, for a change - its nice)!
No Shute Shield match for the Mighty Two Blues this weekend. Our next encounter will be on June 15 against Norths. Fourths, Thirds and Seconds at Merrylands RSL Club Rugby Park and the First at Allianz Stadium as the curtain-raiser to the Tahs v Lions match.

I haven't kept in touch with the Juniors this year so I can't offer a "first hand opinion" of our chances in the State Championships but I have heard that our U/16s are quietly confident.

Well then... I'm extra confident this weekend!

Anyone involved with TwoBlues that I could purchase a couple of hoodies today on late notice to support the U16s tomorrow at the state champs. I work near Merrylands and can be there in 30 min. Cheers if anyone can help.
