Now I see where you're coming from, Keithy. According to the table Penrith have won three and Uni have been beaten a couple of times recently. You could be right.

Surely Uni will win this comfortably. They have only lost twice whereas Penrith have only had 3 wins this season, 2 of which have been their last 2 games. These wins though were against Norths and Souths who are coming 9th and 11th.
It wont be 189 - 0 but it shouldn't be close. Uni's pick and drive and rolling maul will be dominant. Penrith need a dry track.

As it turns out, lily, we will never know how this game would have gone. As I understand it Penrith have decided to forfeit 3rd Colts as well as 3rd and 4th Grades. The current regulations which require postponed games to be played within seven days create great difficulties in weather conditions such as we are currently experiencing.

Bruce yes we will never know. My statement was based on information the players told me last week. A player from the uni colts is having his 21st in Canberra today and lots of the players are in Canberra. I have also noticed that your Colts 3 team has some younger players. Penrith have had some good results in recent weeks as I stated previously.

If he is in fact having his 21st birthday today then he should not be playing colts football .If he is then the points accrued by Uni in the games in which he has played would be forfeited.

Please for the love of god can you stop posting this drivel. NSWRU colts = Under 20's
Surburban Colts = Under 21's
Have you been sent down to Earth to test all our patience?

Perhaps he means that a Uni Colt from last year is having his 21st and many of this year's Colts are attending it.

The kid had his 21st birthday (although his really turning 20) because its his last year of study at sydney uni and might be heading back to home to canberra as of next year, he is still undecided whether to continue study or head back.

After last weekend's washouts Manly and West Harbour seem to have received the toughest matchups this weekend. Manly plays WH Saturday and Easts Sunday. WH plays Manly Saturday and Randwick Sunday. WH won the first round match vs Manly. This could see Manly's push for the minor premiership and Colts Club Championship take a knock. Hope the SRU look at wet weather weekends 2012 or giving clubs more than 7 days to replay these matches. What would clubs do if this weekend is washed out?

Warringah have beaten Easts today 17 to 14. That makes Warringahs loss to Parra more critical to their finals hopes.

Excellent effort by the Rats forwards. Easts lack a 7 or any forward who can contest at the breakdown.

But they made up for it today against Manly. One of the best games to watch all season with Easts winning in the last minutes in a seesawing game.

Woods knocked off Rats about 48-18. Woods ran everything all day - very little kicking. Rats faded in the second half being run off their feet. Their hard game on saturday probably didnt help, whereas woods had an easier game on saturday vs parra.

Rats actually led early in the second half, forwards were runring on empty and a few soft tries late in the game. Woods backs very good. Rats had a new 10 over the weekend. Uni & Woods are clearly 1 & 2

Wrinkled rat what do you think about manly, since they are still in second position.

As the name would suggest the heart would never tip anyone south of Narrabeen bridge but even the head tells me that Uni & Woods are a step and half above. Manly have talent and are rightly in the top 4 but lack some discipline at times that will be exposed imo as the season goes forward where I see Uni & Woods as a more complete unit with coaching and support staff plus handy benches leading into September

Uni only beat Penrith 13 - 7 in 3rds. The Emu's had 3 Schaaf's playing. If they are Henry's kids it's no wonder that they are tough. Hopefully someone can provide some info on this game.

Lily, like I said last week I thought Emus could go close. The loss by Manly has taken the Colts Club Championship (Eric Spilsted Shield) out of Manly's control. Bruce can keep the trophy for 7th year in a row. WH vs Randwick match didn't rise to any great hieghts. I wouldn't expect either team to make the GF. What about the 3rd grade Colts comp!!! Norths forfeiting to Uni, WH lost to Randwick by plenty and 8 points between 1st and 6th.
