    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    Ten seem to have access to some sort of pool of cash, because according to the media, they seem to have gone close to getting Cricket. Rugby needs to be on FTA. Can Ten do something with a Rugby Sevens circuit over the summer, and take the caravan around the State capitals like the old World...

    NSW JRU State Championships & Representative Teams 2013

    I hope the weather is better this year. The weather for Monday's games last year was ridiculous.

    Shute Shield 2013

    Uni 14 Randwick 0. No lower grade results. 0-0 half time. Uni played with too much discipline and structure, and dominated forward play. Very strong on defence. Wicks made too many basic skills errors which prevented them from building too much pressure. Very individualistic sort of game...

    End of Year Tour 2012

    Not too many upsets this time around. Most games went as form suggested except for: NZL vs ENG TON vs SCO SAM vs WAL

    JON sets Wallabies the target of becoming No1 by end 2012

    Wonder what KPI's the incoming CEO will set, or whether the Board will dictate what the KPI's are? Clearly JO'N's aspirational KPIs haven't been achieved.

    Doing a "Quade" - Will this be the newest term to enter the Australian sporting vernacular?

    Doing a Harris. Limited game time. Written off by most as a plodder but continues to save the day by doing simple things well. Doing a Sharpie. Retires on his terms, as National Captain, with a victory.

    $1 million Rugby Revolution

    Now that the international season is over for the Wallabies, it is time to revisit this concept? Anyone know what the Channel 10 viewing figures were for the Spring Tour on FTA? Are they going to be the FTA partner of the $1m Balmain Cup?

    Nathan Sharpe

    Favourite Sharpe Moment. When he ran on for this 100th Test Cap. A big up yours to those that nearly prevented him reaching that milestone at RWC 11. Honourable Mention = Him scooping all the big awards at John Eales Medal Night this year.

    Richie McCaw biography

    If I put his book down on the far side of my table, will I still be able to see it when I next go looking for it, or will it be like the man himself and be invisible?

    Australian Junior Rugby Union

    If the AJRU remit is to go to under 19 for junior club rugby, why is Under 17 seen as the flagship team for AJRU? Are schools players eligible for AJRU teams? What is the eligibility criteria? What if my son was playing for his club in 2012 at U16, but there isn't enough numbers to have a...

    Reds v Waratahs Rd 18 2012

    Richard Loe - Yes. That had a very deliberate look about it. Did Finger play any RL as a youth?

    How long will Quade get?

    ^^^^ That is not a very nice thing to say. Shame on you. Barnes has had a history of bad concussions. This one may be the one that puts him out of the game. Remember Elton Flatley, or Steve Devine - two of country NSW's finest? Repeated concussions can not be lightly dismissed.

    Brumbies 2012

    This season while a fizzer at the death will be reviewed as a very successful one from a team that everyone had low expectations of at the start. A fit Liliafano may have made a significant difference for the last few games. We will never know. Under the White's stewardship, ably assisted by...

    Shute Shield 2012

    There is a fine line between impartiality, informed and objective commentary and outright tabloid style populist bias. Over the years the ABC, and the ABC sports department, has demonstrated a very proud record of the former. Of late the ABC Rugby coverage has let these fine standards slip a...
