It’s been a big couple of days for Quade Cooper.  Yesterday it was announced that he would be kick-starting his Super Rugby career by signing with the Melbourne Rebels. Today, as if to justify the Rebel’s decision, Cooper was named the National Rugby Championship Player of the Year for 2018. To further...

Queensland Country and the Western Force fought out a high scoring game when they met at Bond University in the regular season, with the Force prevailing. With a place in the big dance on the line, who would book their seats for the daunting flight to Fiji? On paper, these are two...

I may have mentioned once or twice or pretty much every week how quick this NRC season is. It leaves absolutely no margin for error nor for teams trying to work their way into the tournament, as Brisbane City found out. So here we sit, on Semi-Final eve once again. And it’s...

Mondays Rugby News sees The final round of the NRC, Liam Gill wants to come home, Lukhan Tui extends his break and English and Clark commit.

As an Eagles fan, this one hurts. But I can’t deny it was a cracker of a match. In a classic armwrestle, Brisbane City kept their finals hopes alive with a last gasp 27-28 win over NSW Country in Camden this afternoon.  On a soggy day in front of a decent crowd...

Second last round of the season. Last home game for Queensland country. The boys from the bush need to win at least one of their last two games to be assured of a place in the finals. Winning both of them would make their life easier. The Rays on the other hand...

Last weekend pretty much went to plan with just the one upset when Brisbane City got the best of their QLD Country rivals (hey, but I picked it!).  It does mean a fair bit of a shake up of the ladder with QLD Country and the Western Force basically swapping positions. Despite...

This week saw the Sydney Rays travel across the country to attempt to win the Horan-Little shield off the current holders, the Western Force in Perth. A wonderful warm and clear day greeted them and the Rays jumped out of the blocks with all of the early running, trapping the Force deep...
