Yes focus on the positives... A bus trip to Blacktown has the potential for more adventures than a bus trip to the Hills.

Yep it was a ripper of a game and an outstanding result. LCOI played in tight the first half then let it sing in the second half with some deft chips and kicks to gain territory. Lads were chasing the scoreboard the majority of the game and were down 14-7 with less than 5 to go and...

Have you seen the price of Hot Cross Buns at a certain chain of bread stores? $12.50 for for a 6 pack. Tell 'em they're dreamin'. Give me the traditional Iced Vovo Hot Cross Bun from the red supermarket any day..

Lane Cove Rugby had a reversible Paladin jersey with the home strip being the traditional white jersey with blue/yellow V and the away strip being a blue jersey with white/yellow V.

LCOI came up against UNSW yesterday and had decent numbers across all four grades plus Colts. Did note a decent number of Polynesian players and where they recruit players from I'm not too sure. As for Macquarie Uni I guess it would come down to those who attend the Uni and or live in the area...

Can only speak of the LCOI matches, other than noting some large units within the first grade clash between UNSW and Quins. LCOI Colts had a 2 tries to 1 results against UNSW. LCOI 2nds have a strong showing with 7 or 8 tries to 1 against UNSW 4th. Tables were turned for LCOI 1st against UNSW...

Correct. Didn't see much of the game but believe it was 2 tries to 1.

Don't leave us in suspenders (you win this time predictive text), who, what, where and when?

When Menai where around the trip south through Saturday morning traffic to Bardon Ridge was never meet with enthusiasm. And the ground itself, had the potential to be the coldest place in Sydney when the wind was doing its thing.

Lyne Park was good for parking your seaplane though.

Yes it was. Agree it was and still is good for viewing and will continue to be used as a back up if Tantallon Oval is closed. Player facilities were at best average and Ryde Council were happy to charge an arm and a leg too. However the move away from Ryde Oval has likely been the catalyst for...

Division 3 and 4 first grade draws are out. https://rugbyresults.fusesport.com/drawresult.asp?id=1716780&seasonid=1301 https://rugbyresults.fusesport.com/competitions.asp?compID=1716786&id=1301

Bloody hell. Played there many moons ago a week or so after it had been flooded. Reckon it took a solid week to remove the black soil from various orifices.

Yep just got the word (not about the bird) that Lane Cove Council has closed Tantallon after gazing into a crystal ball in regards to tomorrow's weather therefore the scheduled three way trial between Old Barker, Knox Old Boys and Lane Cove Old Ignatians is cancelled.

Malcolm Turnbull was right. 'Son you can borrow my dictionary but just be aware there may be some backlash'.
