    Australian Rugby / RA

    RA and the selected RWC squad. I look at the scores from Rennie's last tour and the huge injury list he had (close losses to France and Ireland) - I would have kept him on board and made the call after the 2023 RWC. For Eddie to reference 2027 now as he has done - man, pick the best for 2023 "4...

    Shute Shield 2023

    Try NSWrugbyTV - i think that will give you the scores, and if you pay live stream of all games.

    Shute Shield 2023

    He played 15, it was like having 16 players on the field with his backline management. Back again this week - 2015 GF rematch down at Manly Oval this weekend - both teams very strong.

    Shute Shield 2023

    huge standouts those 3 - and very well-balanced 1 - 23 plus the players stepping up. I would have also included Oscar Guilding in that group as well -just wish he didn't get injured

    Shute Shield 2023

    Back in top 4:). I remember season thoughts 5 weeks back:). Nowhere is safe on the table given Souths have beaten the top 2, hope they don't make it top 3 on the weekend:)

    Shute Shield is blessed with some great photographers, provides a great advert for our game, and creates memories. Telling a 1000 words care of PBS Sportspics - David MacLean

    Shute Shield 2023

    ah yes, felt that through the covid years of 2020 and 2021. With the comp as tight as it is 2 back to back wins can create a new season

    Shute Shield 2023

    4 from 4 and TG is a very rare feat. Scorelines to date (albeit it early) suggest a very tight year.

    Yep. Manly have their 4th player with Manly Savers

    Tour finished - none of the teams we played based on their performance would concern me for next year's RWC. We stayed in each of those games for the full 80 and one more scoring chance in each of those games could have resulted in a Grand Slam. I rate Rennie as a coach, really looking forward...

    Wallabies v Ireland, Sun 20th Nov 7am AEDT

    Nope. How good was Marky Mark (Nawaqanitawase) this morning? Read somewhere he almost defected to Fiji - that's an example on how tuff our current pathway is - the confidence and structure it gives the players.

    Wallabies v Ireland, Sun 20th Nov 7am AEDT

    Porecki on the kneck role, as soon as he got up there he let go - one of those calls, On Rennie - I'm a fan, look at the bigger picture; Players out. How close v Ireland and France. Bring back the mud tracker games so touring players get to play in gold and gel as a team, and test matches get...

    Australia v England Test 1 Sat. July 2 @1955

    Agree - I was more referencing players doing hard work and developing, and pointing out that sometimes development is better offshore - playing rugby with adults than being picked out of school. I like the current coaches - Rennie > Thorne, > DC > McKellar - the system is working well. Offshore...

    Australia v England Test 1 Sat. July 2 @1955

    Just suggestion some of the schoolboy talents needs to spend time playing rugby with adults and developing. Sometimes they are picked on reputation and don't succeed. But it is hard given money in league, money offshore, and money talks. Porecki, I don't think he'll think he'd been overlooked it...

    Australia v England Test 1 Sat. July 2 @1955

    E&E both spent time in the SS and also abroad to learn their craft - learning craft - is more the point I was trying to make rather than sign schoolboy superstars. D that's the other point do players improve by playing offshore in a global game - a number of players have returned from the NH...

    Australia v England Test 1 Sat. July 2 @1955

    It May have been pointed out in these threads, Kellaway was a schoolboy star signed too early based on reputation - went away and learned to play with adults, doing great things now. Porecki after serving a good apprenticeship in the Shute Shield further developed his game with men - a great...

    Shute Shield 2022

    Manly v Uni - How good is getting the win at Uni. I reckon both teams will take away a lot from that game with regards to areas of improvement. Alot of spilled pill given the intensity, and probably the top-of-table clash pressure. The highlight for me was the continued effort by Uni to score a...
