Tamworth was 2 years ago and that was the night of the big storm. No country game last year. They played the Rebels in Hobart instead. I've watched trials in Lismore, Orange, Nowra and Tamworth over the last few years and they are always are a huge hit with the local rugby community and earn the team a lot of goodwill. They usually come and stay for a few days and run coaching clinics for local kids and clubs as well as media and fundraising. I hope it returns. Places like Armidale, Dubbo, Bathurst, Moree, Coffs, Port Macquarie, Wagga Wagga all have grounds that would cope and strong rugby communities that would reap big benefits.

We may have been neglected in Wagga and now work as a feeder for the ACT but there's plenty of us here who will only ever support the Waratahs and only ever want to play for the Waratahs. The Brumbies can get fucked!
Respectfully,
A local.
edit: Nothing against the Brumbies; The Reds, Rebels and Force can get fucked too! Tahs 2014 - Believe. Believe you're going to get smashed by the Tahs.

He said that he is no longer in rehab. He said that he felt it wasn't right for him at this point (paraphrasing a bit - can't remember the exact words). He said that he is an adult.
Cheika said that he is a rugby coach and he is not going to be a nanny (or some such phrase) and that Beale is just the same as anyone else in the team.
That's all I got.

The show is also on SBS ONE on Sundays at 5pm and Friday at 2:30pm (re-run).
It should also be up on SBS On Demand or Living Black webpage as well. Uncertain as to when they upload it for viewing though.

New Tahs jersey on sale, although true to form there is no mention of it on the Waratahs website.

So new they didn't even have time to iron it! The Marketing Director will be seriously pissed (off).

All you need is white shorts and white scrum cap and we can start calling you the New South Wakes Smurfs.

Its apparently in stock and can be delivered in two days, I wouldn't be too suspicious. Anyway they'd deal directly with Canterbury, how the Tahs decide to market the jerseys has nothing to do with companies Canterbury supply to
Last year they had the heritage jersey on sale for about 6 months before the Tahs shop started selling it.

Its not in the shop section though, you'd think if it was in stock that they'd market it more no? Rather than having it on the bottom corner of the home page.

It doesn't compare to the other 2014 Super Rugby jerseys that Lovell have listed for sale/pre-order both in terms of look and price.

I think that Chieka should try Kurtley at 13 in the trials. He is an absolute genius in unlocking defences with his step and off-loading in traffic and he is seriously fast. He is very good at setting up wingers for tries as he has done from 15 at Waratah and Wallaby level.
His one-on-one defense is way better than he is given credit for. If he can learn to play the defensive role of a 13 it might be the genius move of 2014. That would leave AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) and Crawford on the wings and Betham as the outside back reserve. Hard to think of a better high-ball back three than Folau, Crawford and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper), and with Foley and Horne inside that is a backline that could destroy the best of teams. Frightening depth in the squad if injury strikes.
If it succeeded it would give us Kuridrani, Beale and AAC (Adam Ashley-Cooper) for the Wallabies at 13 and that would be the three-choice depth we need come 2015. Its getting crowded at the top level now (except for tight head prop).

Hawko are you suggesting we are going to win in 2014

NO! I've been a Tah supporter since the late 60's so I am intimately acquainted with the history and I still remember walking back to my car after the first final thinking I'd seen a cracking game but that realistically we did just not believe we could win it enough. Then I watched Kurtley get cut down by the injury gods just as we started to get on top of the Saders, which snuffed out our chance of winning it in Canterbury.
I have deeply held hope but experience tells me that the moment I put that suggestion into words that the rugby gods will punish me in the usual manner. All Waratah supporters, including yourself, should wipe all such suggestions from your vocabulary until it actually happens. Then and only then can we breathe those two tiny words - "at last!"
