    QLD COLTS 2018

    Right you are William Wallace!, Injuries to key players opens it all up for grabs. I heard a key player for Souths has returned from a long shoulder op recovery. Might just be the spark they need to reignite. Only time will tell. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Reds 2018

    Reds are improving but seem to lack something. We have young backs and no one to direct them? Why couldn't we have kept someone for guidance!? These young men are good players but experience prevails. Who in the Reds backline can provide that? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    QLD GPS Rugby 2017

    NC V BBC. It's home advantage for NC, obviously a good start but if BBC can control it up front it could be a tight game. 10 man rugby for BBC and keep it close to your firepower. Van Nek shows aggression both attack & defence. Soli & Bennett will cause havoc out wide so Ngamanu in the centres...

    BBC no.8, Ngamanu has been forced to play outta position due to back shortage. Very disappointing for him I'm sure, as he was just hitting his straps coming off the schoolboys tournament. He will most likely struggle to gain Australian spot now thanks to BBC coaching staff! The things you...

    Hey Les, they sell tissues up on that tennis court of yours? There were 2 linesmen in line with the ten metres and of course, the ref had a visual. Hosea made a hard body wrap tackle, it looked bad because of the height factor but it certainly didn't warrant any card but he wore a yellow and he...

    BBC deserve the win, having 2 players with yellow cards. 20 minutes with 14 players shows character! I hope Josh Russell recovers well, very sad to see an injury like that. All the best Josh. BBC also had injured players watching so they still managed a win. Hope the injuries are gone by next...

    He's certainly got skill so it shouldn't be a problem! I just threw that Hosea one in for a laugh Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Well said WW Bench!!, just heard BBC no.8 has been moved out to centre. Gee they must be drying up on backs! I hope their half back doesn't get hurt, I'd hate to see Hosea feeding the scrum? Never the less, it's all about the team! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Reds 2018

    TSR, good comment regarding bad kicking. QC (Quade Cooper) was terrible across the board!, his tactical kicks were not effective but the funny thing was he never changed it?? I honestly thought Stylsie was gona replace him early in the second half. I really felt for our forwards fighting hard to win our own...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2017

    The way Australia is going with selections is the reason why NZ are so far ahead! The tournament for a start does not suit certain states.Qld have 1 week to prepare 2 sides.. Others are not far behind. That tells me the team has already been picked, or a majority have been. Qld are clearly...

    BBC 10 was very calm. I thought he controlled the game well. Things looked like IGS were coming back in the start of the 2nd half but 10 sent them back to the safety zone every time it looked dangerous and took defensive pressure off his pack. He is a future talent if he can gain a bit more meat...

    I can't disrespect player names mate, that's not my style. IMO, Jayden Ngamanu never even got a run! The coaches must really hate the style he offers the game but they took him anyway?? The young man IMO is a solid player, I certainly hope he stays positive. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Upthereds#!, mate I know talent when I see it! He beats his first man and he's got speed with it! I've only seen that style in NZ. I spose you wouldn't know that so I won't bother you mate. But that's only my opinion like I said! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    QLD GPS Rugby 2017

    IMO Qld 1 are quite a lot sfronger up front ahead of QLD 2. My concern being NSW are both strong from what I've heard. If QLD 1 lose then we are in big trouble. QLD have 1 week to prepare. Is that enough time to get the structure, the combination, the team bonding in place? We are already...
