It was 2058 hours in Chateau de Pfitzy when the game clock hit 70 minutes. So it was on track to finish before 2110 hours.

Forgot to add, Ballymore needs to invest in some new point of sale hardware. Cash only at the bar, really slow card transactions for tickets, not an ATM in sight.

Everything needs to be paywave.

Not only will the NRC increase our playing and referee depth, but hopefully the Beer tent, BBQ and Canteen operation and products will improve as well. One goes to the footy to watch the footy, not to spend half the rent on a light beer and cold pie after queueing up for half the game.

They should just let street market vendors set up shop at ballymore and charge them a flat rate to operate. Would be a far better option food wise than the dross they serve from the canteen, and would also add a bit more atmosphere to the games.
Y'know, this just might work!

Anyone know if/when fox will show the game again. My recording didn't work and I can see a bunch of ITM games and some currie cup games but no replay of City v Stars

From what I saw the Reds people were under the pump. They would have had no idea how many people would show up and are most likely running it on a shoestring.

Was on again this afternoon. Fox tend to repeat these things a couple of times a week. Not sure how this can be checked though.

Well the Brisbane City vs Sydney Stars game only drew 6'000 less then the Bulldogs vs Tigers(9'400) NRL game on the same night. Not a bad start considering the salary cap for the NRC teams is $50'000 and the NRL teams is $5million.

One could even be forgiven for thinking that the NRL timed their Thursday night matches just so it could compete for oxygen with the NRC.;)

I'd love for foxtel to show more games. Would be more than happy with one camera, ref/crowd mic only so no need for commentators. Could probably just about crank them out with a team of 4.

They could play them at midnight and then us die hards could record them.

Obviously some fridge 1st graders, who have played 2nds come in to cover spots with missing players, but there are guys getting picked for Super Rugby out of Sydney Uni's 2nds every year.

The Wallabies have selected from Shute Shield reserve grade.

I always got the feeling it was coming, but maybe that's just my loathing of Uni manifesting.

I've never played Uni, seen them play in person, or even played rugby in Sydney but by god G&G has imprinted some serious hatred of them within my very soul.


So you're swayed by opinion.

A cult-leaders dream.
