    Hunter Rugby

    I hope so. Singleton I think have the best chance. But I really haven't heard anything. There was speculation floating around that Nelson Bay and Medowie were going to work on possibly one of the clubs fielding a 1st and 2nd grade, and the other fielding the third grade side in premier. As...

    Hunter Rugby

    The last few seasons Maitland and Merewether are the two big clubs. Merewether beat Maitland 41-26 in the 1st Grade Final last season. Maitland beat Merewether 32-26 in the 1st Grade Final in 2023. Wanderers won 2nd Grade last season. Southern Beaches won 3rd Grade last season. Merewether won...

    Broadcast options for Australian Rugby

    So new five-year 215 million AUD broadcast deal. 43 million AUD each year (up from 30 million). Also possibilities for up to 30 million extra over the five years if certain success criteria are met. Interesting to see no more FTA Super Rugby, which is disappointing. I feel that Nine probably...

    Hunter Rugby

    Yeah it would be interesting. Aussie Rules has a combined 15 team Central Coast and Newcastle competition. If Hunter Rugby and Central Coast Rugby merged the premier competition it would turn into a 14 team competition if we take all the teams playing this year (all the teams listed below...

    Hunter Rugby

    Central Coast competition this year is eight teams with 3 grades. I played juniors on the Central Coast and to be honest that is where they are struggling the most. There younger ages have a team for most clubs, but when you get to u15s Terrigal and Avoca have two teams each and only two other...

    2022 there was 9 clubs in Premier. Lake Macquarie were taken out of Premier mid season due to player safety concerns, players playing multiple grades, uncompetitive score lines etc. and they fielded two teams in the 2022 Suburban competition but left after a few games. Lake Macquarie have...

    Shute Shield Colts 2025

    Most come through the junior clubs. Wildfires are pushing for more Central Coast players as well, another option instead of having to move/commute to Sydney.

    Waratahs v Brumbies Sat 22nd March 7:30 PM Allianz

    Looking at the ticket sales now. Lower GA is sold out in both ends. They have opened an upper tier for more GA tickets (outlined in the red square)> The bays on the left have probably 15 tickets left for grabs between all of them (not including accessible seating). Maybe 50 tickets left on...

    Looking at the ticket sales currently. Looks like one of the lower GA sections is sold out? First time I have seen that this season. They have opened up an upper tier behind the in goal for more GA tickets.

    Waratahs v Brumbies Sat 22nd March 7:30 PM Allianz

    I agree but who knows. First two home games we had just over 16k. The game against the Force looked significantly less, and they didn't announce a figure. I would love to see us break the 20k mark this season like the Reds did last week, but I don't think the Tahs are there yet.

    Waratahs v Brumbies Sat 22nd March 7:30 PM Allianz

    Hopefully more than the last home game. I would say ~15k

    He said the Wildfires have identified the womens as their focus for expansion, especially with the Hunter Rugby Womens compeition being the biggest in the state. Another interesting comment was about a 3rd mens side. Stating that they would love a 3rd grade, but the problem is travel. With...
