John I Dent Cup - Canberra Competition -

[Canon76]

Is their really?
None of the Whites boys have been pulled out so maybe no Whites players are involved? I wonder who this side is?

I am trying to find if this is correct, the brumbies website is terrible, but gates open at 1pm and the game is at 4pm, so I assume that that this game is before the force v brumbies game.

It is the ACT side - Reza Almasi has been selected in it (though, he'd have preferred to have played for Easts).

A lot of Uni-Norths players according to Rezzly, and a couple from Wests.

 

[Brumby Jack]

I heard a lot of players did not want to play in this game and getting a team together was a bit of a nightmare

 

[Empire]

Yep. Stupid timing from the Brumbies - They really don't seem to give one iota about the John I Dent sometimes.

Rezza really didn't want to play, and as such has been stripped of the captaincy. We've already got enough injuries to contend with, and this doesn't help one bit.

Respect for the Brumbies keeps sinking and sinking at grassroots level... I think I'd be one of maybe (stretching it here) 5 guys at our club with a membership of some kind. 5 out of 100+ is pretty damning...

There is some interesting selections there, I would think that this was not the first XV that they selected and that players have dropped out, I would assume that if a player has dropped out then they would not be able to play for the club side this weekend.

Gunghalin just getting over Vikings in a great game at Vikings Park. Also, does anybody know where Ed Stubbs is playing this year?

 

[CoachTB]

Ed Stubs strongly rumoured to be with Easts (Sydney) - also apparently out for a a fair while with the injury he had last year.

So what were the results from saturday?

Home Team v Away Team
Tuggeranong 34 v Gungahlin 41
Queanbeyan 37 v Royals 19
Easts 25 v Wests 58
Uni-Norths 5 v Victoria 62

Gunghalin just getting over Vikings in a great game at Vikings Park. Also, does anybody know where Ed Stubbs is playing this year?

He's had a long run of shoulder injuries and dislocations, the latest a couple of months ago in his comeback game for the runners. Don't expect anything from him this year, for his sake anyway,

 

[MATEMAATONGA]

anyone from whites camp kno if vili iongi will take up the offer to play for tonga at the churchill cup in june

 

[yourmatesam]

Good to see the Vics getting a run around as the 'bye' team. Brumbies Rugby need to keep this relationship strong now that the Rebels are around.

 

[BrumbiesPolynesian]

Any team lists for this weekends round.
Brumbies website is crap compared to the other Unions.

 

[canberra2011]

Any news on how the ACT Colts went against NSW Country?
