I wonder because it is a 6.30pm game so that means the Stingrays would have to kick off around 4.30pm. Would be good for the community.

Easts beat Souths by 8 points. Easts had a good lead so they rested some of thier key backs which allowed Souths back into the game. Easts forwards set a good platform for their backs to utilise set play, ball stuck in hands and they played well, particularly in the first half. 36-28 I think the...

There has been some close games and some interesting outcomes. Going to enjoy the tussle over who gets through! Those Aus lads will have learnt a lot from that game last night.

Both teams had to play on that pitch - so yeah - no excuse. Rugby was, and hopefully still is, all about playing no matter what the conditions are: rain, hail, sleet or sunshine. Argentina used their bench very well. Good replacements at the right time, they didn't take a backward step...

Went past a League field the other day and their field was destroyed because of savage rain and any number of games - but the kids had fun. Its a piss poor excuse - any number of our coaches out there who know what to do in that type of weather - these guys are supposed to be our best so listen...

ABC reported on Thursday night that Quade was playing for Souths today - can't see it myself but you never know.

How many times did UJ kick beautifully into the corner for a given penalty and we lost it in the line out? Can't afford that at any time. Didn't the Argies have some speed. Wet weather didn't slow them down.

They were his clones!!!!!:D

Totally agree. No power in the 2nd row. They even went high on pushes.

Aus needs to learn to play wet weather rugby. Any old rugby player:rolleyes: knows how to play in that weather. Are we getting to prissy. Train in the rain helps you play in the rain! They are learning how to chat back to the Ref and Touchie early in their careers - not good

I see coaching provincal different from national duties. Coaching at the super rugby is a resume for the chance of coaching nationally, if thats what you want, or for a priemership. Nationally is a cultural thing and Deans isn't Aussie. How many more years, and excuses, is it going to take...

Exactly. It's not just about ability. Its about pride and passion for the colours on your jumper - or supposed to be.

I have posed the question before. Would the All Blacks and New Zealand supporters accept an Australian as their coach? Would an Australian coaches heart lie with the AB's if they were to coah them.

Bermo out for a week or two longer - maybe; Butler broken finger - couple of weeks; Sean Cox out for the season; Joel - still rehabing shoulder; Toua - thought he would be back, the rest I am not sure how long. Quirk did well - needed the run to get game fitness going.

Agreed. He is also too slow into the air in the line-outs.

Thank you Churchillds cigar for your input. What you have said about the defence has certainly made the light bulbs switch on. Most certainly agree with you on Balance being vital.

Both Sams have only come back from injury and not played much rugby. Last year they wanted to go with boys who were 20, this year it's diff. I have never been big on focusing which club they come from but it's all a bit off. My fear is that Aus rugby is always addressing our game plan for how NZ...

T They are not the only 2 either. Same for others in the team. Both Uni players coming back from injury, only played colts.

Thanks for the report On Franky Bourke. Where did you find it please?

Shit day- sorry. What I am trying to say is, Are we doing young players any favours 'blooding' them to soon? Have played enough rugby before playing at an elite level. They learn all the skills and drills there but they learn how to deal wth certain situations on the field. Yeah they learn some...
