Regretfully I must inform you that this is the end of Big Ron, after being disrespected once again I must terminate my upstanding contract with AIC chat thread and am now being recruited by GPS Chat thread.
I have been snitched
Yours truly Big Ron
In past years the AIC has produced talented players such as Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, Christian Welch, Jack Creighton and most recently Brad Wilken and Junior Fakaosilea. With the 2014 season beconing, will we see this kind of talent in 2014? Who will be the cream of the crop?
Chris Morris recently played in a rep team for Brisbane. After being originally picked as a starter he was benched for Ashgroves Louis Gannon. Gannon is likely to play seconds or either thirds for Marist. Just goes to show the depth of Marist and also that maybe Morris isn't the bees knees like...
Bit of talk regarding the Marist forward pack, totally agree that they will be a force to be reckoned with. With courageous (and likely captain) James Lancashire returning for another year aswell as Patrick Beveridge who plays in the back row, Marist forwards will be hoping to salvage a...
I hate to be a thorn in the side of Paduas hopes but I will remind you that Padua has never beaten Marist in the first 15 rugby competition. I think the Padua team has potential for best of the rest status at a stretch. With the 15 As coming off a premiership I think the best is still yet to...
Wow! What controversy, I've also heard news of this and would be great to see the blokes from cooparoo back in contention after a lacklustre effort in 2013.
My early predictions for premiership was Padua however I think villa are a underrated favourite, they had multiple grade 11s in the firsts this year all coming back including a talented number 10. Perennial powerhouses Marist and Iona are always going to be favourites aswell. Iona trying to...
Just regarding the hype surrounding Padua first 15 for next year. Padua possible first 15 side 2014 played a match against St. Kevin's Melbourne who fielded several Victoria state players. Padua ran rings around their favoured opponents en route to a 76-0 slaughtering. Missing 2013 grade 11...
Ladies and gentlemen you heard it here first
Upset of the year,
The boys of brown and gold will march into Iona this weekend and beat Iona
Dashing the Premiership hopes of Iona faithful
Padua will put their heart and soul on the line this weekend
Remember this
You can't catch courage
he was only on for limited minutes and from what I saw I thought he defended well. As for his kicking, he didn't kick very often at all. He set up a try the minute he came on and put his brother Lindsay in a lovely hole aswell.
Peters vs Iona and peters vs Padua. Interested to see how peters would back up after last years premiership. I also saw a bit of film of Marist pats yourself?
