It seems a strange and subdued start to the season. Some sides are trialing and appear to be taking it seriously - they are visibly doing things. With others, either not much activity or no trials. As if they are unaware that the season will soon be on us proper. You would think that some...

If Max Jorgensen had been penalized theee for offside he may have been quite close to a yellow: he was very offside. and then it would have been red. Australian sides need to Learn from the kiwis how to infringe in their 22.

I think I am starting to become a fan of Faessler. He does the basics right. (Though the Tahs hooker is showing up nicely). And it is always good to get more German names in Rugby. For no reason, but it seems sound.

I think too much technology is causing a lot of sports adversely. It has become quite negative rather than positive.

A touch harsh. Almost 50/50. But I think he did touch first. But a penalty try plus yellow card is too much. Especially as he would not have been aware the Reds player had actually touched the ball. But a good game. Watched some league trials earlier- the passing here is much better.

Good to see NewsCorp continuing vendetta again Union. Their coverage so far of the RWC has been quite dire. Even for the Daily and Sunday Telegraphs' standards. Though presumably with their favoured sport, they are getting their teeth stuck into League.

Found this. Which also included a much younger me doing some officiating. Must have been a hot and dry winter in 1995. Or the grounds just look bad due to the quality of the video

I believe the Knox vs Barker game might be televised on Rugby NSW tv. Cluch?

And spectacularly off side

Good to see the All Blacks don’t have to worry about offsides

An interesting round of games. One in which the winner could be determined. Barker hosts Cranbrook. Barker should win, but I think Cranbrook will run it close. Cranbrook have disappointed a little, though they did very well against Waverley and the loss there probably led partially to the...

Dave Rennie wouldn’t have been 0 from 2. But the brains trust at Rugby Australia know best

Looking at it on Clutch it looks to be getting cold already...

I think it might be a good idea to bring the thermals if you are heading out to watch the game tonight. At least it isn't wet.
