    Noted Div 2 Predictions Hills v Beecroft: Expecting a hills pack to make it a tough day for the Beecroft forwards, however with colts providing a bench and supposedly the whole of Beecroft returning (feel this is probably overstated), expecting Beecroft to show to much speed in the backs...

    Sydney Subbies 2024

    Hills, Epping and Beecroft are all geographically in roughly the same area and it can't be a coincidence these are the teams in the division struggling for numbers, more likely a reflection on the drop in numbers in the area. A few years back many of the junior clubs in the area merged due to...

    It's time for the wild speculative season division 2 predictions based on nothing but rumors and last years results. Expecting the top 4 clubs to be considerably stronger then the bottom 4 1st Grade 1. Newport - Fired up in Div 2 finals after a mediocre season with key players returning. I am...

    Sydney Subbies 2024

    4th grade will be a reduced competition most likely. I know Beecroft wont have a fourth grade, and will be surprised if Epping, Briars or Hills have 4th grade, based on the facts (rumors) floating around. Newport and UNSW are maybes. St Pat's, Petersham would assume they do. A 4th grade...

    I assume Hornsby drop into div 4 as they fielded 2 grades last year. Travel wise they would love to be in div 3 with possible division 3 clubs including Barker, Knox and Beecroft all within a 5-10 minute drive, but they would need to find an u21 team which would be hard as they are competing...

    Surprised to hear Beecroft not being promoted considering the results this year including Club Championship 1st 1st grade: 2nd (loss Gf by 2) 2nd Grade: 1st Colts: 3rd Would beg the question what more is needed for the club to move up a division.

    From a Beecroft perspective the talk is most people are quite keen to move up in part due to the shambles that occurred in division 3. - Beecroft 2nd grade only played 2 games in 2 months at the end of the season and had a 12 man bench during the final. - 3rd Grade would offer the opportunity...

    Division 3 Summary 2023 Beecroft 1886 points - 1st Grade (2nd), 2nd Grade (1st) Colts (3rd) The club champions of the division will be happy to walk away with open trophy but will be ruing not coming away with at least one more. The 1st grade side looked unbeatable in the first half of the...

    I'm just going to insert my humble opinion about the controversy's in 1st grade div 3 1st Penalty Try: Scrum infringement whilst Beecroft was going backward - Correct Call 2nd Penalty Try with yellow card pushing/passing the ball dead: yellow card is correct I have never seen a penalty try...

    Its the Big Weekend for div 3 and it should be a cracker. Its a rematch of the major semi finals in every grade which were incredibly tight, for context 1st grade: 5 point win to Beecroft 2nd grade: 1 point win to easts - decided in last 5 minutes Colts: 1 point win to Knox - decided by a...

    Takeaways from preliminary final for div 3 regarding the GF and the seasons as a whole - Oysters are have the best attack in the division, when they win they put a significant amount of points on the board as they did on the weekend, raising the bat for a half tonne. Oysters convincing win...

    Awesome weekend of rugby in div 3 (an average winning margin of 5) with some surprise results which had i done tips would not have been right. Beecroft 25 v Oysters 20: they split the regular season 1:1 both winning convincingly at home, Oysters got off to a flyer with 2 fast tries with missed...

    Div 2 Hats off to Lindifeld what there have done is great but as an Australian I have tall poppy syndrome and would love to see them lose 1sts: Cant deny Lindfield this one they are truly a class above 2nd: Sadly Lindfield probably get this one as well Colts: Newport: The whole club to...

    Grand final for div 3 was played at macquarie uni a few years back and they have two ovals in those facilities. Logistical problem is availability and whilst you can control entry through the bridge there are multiple other ovals in the facility which will probably be in use so there may be...

    Div 3 No savers which is disappointing, dont know what went so wrong for them they could go from fielding 2 finals teams last year to scrapping for one week in week out. Hopefully they can put a team together at home against Barker in 2 weeks, cant see them fielding a side against Beecroft in...

    I agree entierly with your predictions, im expecting 3 cleansweeps. Only change I would make is increase the amount harlequins will win by to 20. There building well and they have structure to frustrate Barker on defense and then have enough on attack to score a few tries.

    Div 3 quick summary having watched the games now. The results were probably what was expected by the surprise this week was how close some of the games were. Beecroft v Iggies 33-5: The one and most predictable result, Beecroft blew out iggies 33-5 with their backs clicking well and their...
