It is disgraceful to think that the lunatics are running the asylum and have created a culture within their "team" that a well credentialed and from all accounts, good man, has decided to end his association with them. For the sake of the game remaining relevant on the sporting landscape in...

Maybe the Uni selectors just get it right (see last few years U20's championship results)

I didn't sling mud, I pointed out you are blowing up at the administration when the clubs agreed not to change the draw Most clubs go through this each year and deal with it I would also think that if each club plays every club once in the first round that there is 2 byes for each club then the...

It was only 2 seasons ago that Parramatta were causing these issues and Gordon had 3 teams. Clubs are aware when the byes are on and can plan accordingly It's worse when you arrive at the ground and you find out a team doesn't have a 3rds side. Please read the posts before slinging mud...

I think most Clubs would prefer to have a couple of extra byes in Colts 3's and keep them all together,rather than the 3's having a totally different draw to the other 2 Colts grades all year. If evenly spaced then I might agree but as it stands Parramatta 3rd colts will have byes in rounds...

Clubs work hard to foster a 3rd grade colts team to ensure player depth and even though the SRU has been aware that both Gordon and Penrith would struggle again, don't have a plan B in place. So this weekend Uni are playing themselves, and so are Parramatta, when with just a touch of...

@Lee Grant has just posted that Chieka told him that the Tahs contacted all the clubs to tell them to send any bolters that they had along to training/selection trials, With all due respect to Lee G, Chek (as the adoring public now call him) had to be dragged to an agreement by a couple of...

I attended a couple of Western Rams games back in version 1 of the ARC. Why? because they were supposedly a representation of the Western clubs that I have an affiliation to and played locally. There was also what appeared to be a fair representation from most of the clubs involved to gain my...

HJ, You might want to forward this passage on to the sycophantic selection chiefs who merely frank the needs of the dominant schoolmasters and use past schoolboy representation as the criteria for further honours, even allowing for the debacles that the previous couple of U20 campaigns have...

Mr Watch, Nice of you to butt in again. I see you still favour telling people how or what they are thinking with your pathetic line suggesting I have a low opinion of the Parramatta players. What I do have a low opinion of is of people like you who belittle the efforts of the 14 kids who stuck...

Then why the hell are you whining about a throwaway line in a Parramatta written report, that was pretty clearly tounge in cheek, before making insinuations that Manly were some what hard done by in 3rds through some dodgy act, That's not what I percieve as giving credit where it's due The glass...

Considering most clubs had little faith in Parramatta fielding a 3rd grade team I think the term "Unsuspecting" is reasonable. The fact that Parramatta also openly allow access to what is essentially a club report is to be applauded. Every club write up is usually slanted in favour of the writer...

While I respect that the dialougue moved off topic for a while, it happens regularly on most of the discussions available here. While IS decided that he had to speak on Mr Ross's behalf (although Bruce categorically stated to Belly that he could speak for himself) I felt no differently in...

Could've mentioned Sydney Grammar too.

Feel free to list them.
