With the Brisbane comp running on Sundays and GC on Saturdays... does anyone know if it's possible to be playing in both? I guess it would only work if training days don't clash, but are there any rules stating that a boy can only play in one or the other?

Still keen. Will pm you.

Yes.. I was a bit emotional last night - I wont give up them either haha :)

Do we even have a forward pack?? I forget how many times I was screaming out; "forwards... forwards... forwards...??" and there were none. This has surely got to do with structure and the game plan to keep forwards out wide for phase play. No point focusing on the next phase if you can't win the...

Yeah, that's not good!!

Good idea! If your team is interested in playing some pre season games next year, could you let me know the best person to talk (if not you) about organising this. Feel free to send me a message - even if it's just to touch base and we'll sort something out. BBQ sounds great as well.

That would be a great idea! Yeah, to be honest; we don't necessarily like winning all our games, especially so easily. It's not good for the boys and it sets unrealistic expectations about rugby and themselves as players. And I don't mean any disrespect to the other GC teams. There are many...

Oh great.. thanks for the info. Sounds like a fantastic event. I'll look it up. Cheers :)

Yeah, I heard there was a really good atmosphere down there. Seems like all the boys really enjoyed themselves. Ahh yes, those u11 boys will take great experience from it and will set them well for next year! Was your boy in the Met East team? We're looking forward to next year and hope it's...

Well done to your boy for making his region's team. I'm sure there were a number of 11yo's playing. Some of which will be turning 12 this year and are u12's and some who will turn 12 next year and are currently u11's. Regardless, I was suggesting how well Oryaan played as an u11's player and...

End of the season for me means individual highlights time. As mentioned before; we have more than our fair share of talented players, two in particular I would like to share their highlights reel for the season. No.8 - Jack Kelly (who played no.12 during the first half of the season) & No.10 -...

Sorry to break the flow of the discussion. Our Half Back / Five Eighth (Oryaan) started the year at no.9 and was later moved to 10. Oryaan is an outstanding player who was good enough as an u11's player to make the u12's South Coast Region Team at Half Back. The team went on to play in this...

Next highlights reel: The No.8 I think every good team needs a good No.8, something I feel the Wallabies are currently lacking. The need of a good No.8 (or dominate forward) was evident this year with our u11's. Although they were winning all their games, the coach wasn't happy with our...

I had been up to Brissy a couple of times this year to watch my nephew play in that team and I totally agree with what you are saying. That's what divisions are for after all. My nephew loves his rugby but was clearly playing out of his depth in size and ability. I think rugby can and should be...

Sadly the season is over for us on the GC but not over for me as the requests for individuals highlight reels start to come in :) I try to keep it quiet as I would have no life if all 20 boys wanted one. However; I thought I would share some of them as I go along - so thanks for letting me...

Here's a start: These are the U6 to U12's rules. http://www.rugby.com.au/tryrugby/KidsRugby/KidsPathway.aspx You should be able find more links from there. We had an interesting experience this year when we were scheduled to play a touring u11s team. In NZ, u11's play a full 15 man team...

Didn't the U13's Brothers team move from Div 1 to Div 2 during the season? I could be wrong.
