No9, Once upon a time I would have agreed with you, but when he was selected for the Australian Junior Sevens team the other year I thought he had made his election! Still a loss IMO because rugby should have done more (from a contractual position) to secure him, but I will say no more on the...

Big ooooops for that one "MOTH". I meant to say MOTM as in Man of the Match!

LG in my assessment you are correct! Without Private School recruitment Rugby would defiantly be the worse off, because IMO 9 out of every 10 McIntyre's would generally walk the path path of Clinton Gutherson at the ASSRL this week! Nevertheless I will qualify my above mentioned statement with...

Sorry I left out the word 'nephew'; after having re-read my earlier post I have indeed implied that he was the son. With that said 'Joey O' has been playing for the Roosters and I had always meant ask someone if there was a connection to the famous man! Yesterday I did and one of the player...

And the rest CTPE!! And the rest mate! I have been watching this lad for nearly three years at the rep level in club rugby (not only school). Admittedly I don't go looking for him, but when I see a tenacious back rower at these games i ask myself who is that lad, and each time I look in my...

Being 40 something ain't old; and if you say that ever again I'll beat you with my walking stick! :D

Great pick! Must admit that one escaped me altogether. Obviously the Canberra Raiders were not able to use their former relationship with Nadruku to entice the son over to the dark side! Doesn't surprise me though, rugby has since evolved into a professional sport since the time when Nadruku...

No one is suggesting Orr played poorly and did not deserve a spot! IMO (which i am entitled to just as you are) I believe Robertson was better; both at the NSW trials and this week at the Australian championship!

:D Your being overly presumptuous mate! In today's era it would not be strange for someone to have two dads or even two mums! :D

And his athletics for which he is an Australian champion i believe. This young man has now come to a very important cross-road in his life today.

Peter Kay the ex-Wallaby prop and Parramatta stalwart who played until he was 500 years old would be a very proud dad tonight! :)

Most would have to agree that the NSW II's did play well all week and deserved their selections in the Aus teams. I was most impressed with Harry Jones all week! On a final note i thought Jack 'the lad' McCalman would have got the nod for a slot!

:D:D:D@Whatever for such brutal honesty and possibly destroying that father's dreams if he is indeed a Taig like us!

i will pvt them to you. LG might boot me! And no to your second question; if i were he would not have played so many games over the last several years.

CTPE, I dont know the lad from a bar of soap, and i am no expert on the tight five, but the lad goes hard! Which leaves me to ask the question if Robertson has an attitude problem that only the selectors and coaching staff know about? How does he keep getting ignored? it defies logic IMO. At...

No Tepai Moeroa he is late inclusion in the NSWCIS team! :D

Piggy Robertson in the A's and Orr in the firsts! That I find interesting as well! Can Robertson not play both sides of the scrum?

Very! :eek:

Former captains of the Wallabies in chronological order!

Tongan boys went well today! I got talking to one of the relatives of one of the Tongan boys and was informed that the team was mostly lads from the King' school in Tonga called 'Toloa' and it's arch rival, a school called 'Atele'. Atele would be akin to a NSW Sport High School. They hate each...
