Just for Information the Tuggeranong V Gungahlin matches are tonight not Friday as was advertised on the program last week.

I take my 9 year old and my 3 year old to JID games. If you want to act like a goose go to a queanbeyan blues or a roos game. this has no place in this sport. you can have atmosphere and rivalry without obscenity.

I heard second hand that Jr Morgan who was in the U20 Barbarian side got a call up for this match. can't be sure of which side he has been selected for though. may have been called into the Aussie side or may have been selected to play them...he has also made the cut for NRC side squad.

The comment was not about whether the NRC selections were biased towards Tuggeranong nor was it suggesting that the players I mentioned should have been in the side. It was that there are players that are playing JID first grade that are obviously talented player as they were in the Baas baas...

Congratulations to: Connal McInerney Tuggeranong Tyrell Lomax Tuggeranong for making the U20 Aussie side to go to Italy.

If those players were at Tuggeranong or Queanbeyan it's likely they would be playing colts. That may be so, but what does that say about the distribution of talent. There is a reason that talented players are choosing to play for Tuggeranong and my assumption is that it provides the ability...

Just noting that the following players were good enough to make the Australian Barbarians under 20s side but not the Tuggeranong Canberra Vikings training squad. Callum Smith – Tuggeranong Brodie Leber – Western Districts Dean Parragalli – Royals Joel Brown – Easts Jamie Kotz – Gungahlin...

Good squad should do very well. My only comment is there is not a lot of options to cover the back three if there are any injuries there. A player like Pat Toeta could have covered those positions and fly half too. Might have been a handy utility player. Congratulations to all the young men that...

I believe that Qld got home against the Barbarians with a try in the last minute to break a 29 all scoreline. Barbarians beat Fiji as did QLD and both were towelled up by NSW. So my argument, remembering that QLD have been together since last year, Is NSW first, daylight second and a photo for...

I think they just wrote the team lists today in the positions they would start. Toeta had a good game V Tonga at fullback (most of the game) started V QLD at fly half and was not too bad and has some game time on the wing V NSW from memory. He has been the Baa baas best back for mine. Not...

It was Jordan Fulivai that was injured. Toeta was the No. 10

I could not agree more. it seems that, from the people I have spoken too, this has been a taste of professional sport. They each have their rooms, good food, some free time and professional training and massage and focus on getting the best out of all players. Apart from the programmes not...

Good afternoon all, sorry my two cents is coming late but thats is what happens when you spend the days at the rugby other things need to be done. NSW looked good from the outset, for the first 20 minutes they were all over the baas like a cheap suit, but it must be said that 10 mins of that was...

Agree that the baa baas were better in the scrums. Very even contest and could have gone either way. If you missed the first 20 there was an unfortunate collision between the baa baas winger J. Kotz and fullback J. Fulivai who came into the squad late to replace Jonah Placid who played for the...

Jonah Placid did not play yesterday versus Tonga. my guess is that he is still in line for a Gold Jumper.

The Barbarians won with a try after the bell. Length of the field in about 8 phases. Not convincing but they will be better for the run. Some big boys in the Tongan side. Good game to watch but they might need to step it up against NSW and Qld.

I have no doubt that there will alot of talented young blokes that miss out on selection but increasing the number of teams at Nationals would only create more people to be cut at that stage. If you have not impressed enough to make one of the three teams I am guessing you have missed your...

My point was that this is a huge achievement for the guys that have made it this far and don't get an Aussie Jersey, some of these boys have time on their side. They need to take this chance to learn and come back next year bigger and better. For a few they get a chance to do that twice...

He had to play his entire final year of schoolboy Rugby against boys older than he was though. However what you loose on the swings you pick up on the roundabout. I am confident that he will relish all that comes his way in the coming weeks. Congrats to Sione Tuipuloto for making this side at a...

He was 17 as of 1 January 2015, turned 18 since but as he will not turn 20 until 2017 I believe that makes him eligible for 2015,2016,2017. Happy to be corrected. He was eligible for the under 18 rugby 7s nationals on the weekend just gone and is available for selection for the youth...
