I think Wests were always on top, leading 24-0 at oranges. It is now a race between Rats and the Pirates to get the final spot in the 8. Wests should beat Penrith, and the Rats need to beat Parramatta therefore to lock up that last position. Anything short of a win for the Rats will see Wests...

Be very surprised if the Orrs leave Wests to go to Souths. Not sure what would entice them down south, plus they were both seen at the Wests 2013 information evening.

Edwin Maka, the massive human who played 1 first colts game and 9 second colts games this year for West Harbour, debuted for Toulouse in the top14 off the bench, setting up the winning try. Just in the last few days he made his starting debut, playing with the likes of McCallister and Burgess...

forgive me for not knowing many of the names 1st Colts- Wests 34 - Manly 28 extremely fast pace for this game, with the lead changing many times. Wests started strong, scoring first through their hooker who looks unbelievably tough to tackle. Manly bounced back to put on the next two tries...

alot of the players you picked would be ineligible for a 19s team with most being 20. Who is the 19s team playing? love the idea however, there should be a NSW rep team for colts

Surprised this hasn't garnered more of a response. Congrats to Norths

They would still have to deal with most likely West Harbour, Warringah and Gordon who all have capable 1st colts teams, with Wests being the pick of the bunch. Gordon and the Rats are no walkovers either! Gordon went down to the pirates today 12-11, and looked dangerous.. although the...

Phil (Ofiu) Manukue from Plumpton HS is a tall, athletic second rower and has been in fine form for West Harbour 1st Colts, so he is one to watch. Will be pushing NSW

Wests 41- Eastwood-36. Wests came out firing, with a 28-5 lead at oranges. Credit to the woodies, coming back well with two tries to their winger Coady but they never really looked like winning.

Penrith have improved a lot since last year in both numbers and play, but to be true Wests were missing a lot of players with both halves and winger usually third graders. Was a very scrappy, somewhat unstructured game, with both teams very physical and ill disciplined at times. Wests scrum...

Wests beat Easts 4 tries to 3.. big improvement already from last year

Wests drew with Easts 3 tries a piece. Wests were quite dominate with ball in hand but i think their fitness let them down. Were leading 3 tries to 1 when about 10 subs came on in the latter stages of the 2nd half.

Spewn, What was your take on West Harbour 2s, able to surprise in the finals or no? Eastwood are steadily improving at the right time of the year. But in syaing that, Uni v Manly final most likely in both 1s and 2s

I think you will find that the West Harbour 3rds Colts team that played Randwick on Sunday was not the usual team, made up of many fringe players as alot of the boys had other commitments. Also, with Penrith, when the Emus play at home they are very competitive, but it is when they play away...

Sydney Team that played today at the Greg Davis Rugby Festival. They ended up egtting up 70-34 in a very entertaining game against a Drummoyne Invitational XV. (By Program) 1. Selsesi Manu 2. Scott Podmore 3. Eddie Aholehei 4. Phil mAthers 5. Ed Gower 6. Sean Doyle 7. Mitch Greenway 8...
