    I think you might be a little over zealous with your assumption of what these paid players do there Ozzie Bob. I think you'll find that they will generally do everything you or I would do regarding training. In fact I have heard on good authority that some of these superstars train less. In...

    So are you saying existing players are leaving the paying Div 2 club to go to the emerging Div 1 team? or that players are simply leaving the paying Div 2 team?

    Word on the street is that Fraser has brought along a number of the fellas he coached last year for the NSW Country Cockatoos. Peter Nau (Dubbo) and Paulie Tuala (Illawarra & NSW Country Eagles) are two that apparently have signed up, but it wouldn't be a big surprise to see a few more. Anyone...

    can anyone shed light on the rumour I heard yesterday that the Brothers Club will be receiving a one year exemption from the "amateur status" due to already signing a significant number of Gordon higher graders?? Surely this can't be true!

    Word through the old rugby grape vine is that former Tongan International and Shute Shield premiership winner Pierre Hola will be making his way down to Boronia Park for next year. That will be another former international added to the HH ranks. Considering that player payments have been...

    Not to be one to start rumors myself, however I have heard that some sort of meeting will be conducted today to discuss ramifications of last weekend's Drummoyne incident. Now that suspensions have been handed out I'm not really sure what else Subbies could do bar wiping them out of the final...

    I think if you look at the Div 1 ladders you'll find Drummoyne are missing a few competition points. I'm led to believe its related to the number of yellow and red cards the club has been receiving.

    Yeah I'm very sorry, but I'll need some convincing before I believe a former international player leaves one club that commonly accused of paying only to go to another club often accused of the same "crime", for no financial gain. Maybe I'm just a cynic.

    Hahaha I think some of you fellas need to spend a bit of time at some of these clubs. The majority of the "subbies superstars" that are running around have pretty good reasons for choosing subbies over the more prestigious club competitions. Injuries, failing bodies, family situations (wife...

    Western Sydney Rams . NRC Official Team Thread

    I think you'll find this is incorrect. Campbelltown contacted Illawarra at the beginning of the season requesting entrance into the Illawarra Competition. Illawarra agreed with this but Campbelltown withdrew their request at the 11th hour upon the NSW Subbies decision to make Subbies entirely...

    I'm really not sure that Campbelltown will be accepted back into the Illawarra competition as readily as you all seem to think. Campbelltown put in a request at the beginning of this season to compete in the Illawarra comp and were accepted. I'm led to believe it came down to an 11th hour club...

    NSW Country - - - NRC Official Team Thread

    Looking at their website, the NSW Country Cockatoos have signed Shannon Fraser as Head Coach for the 2014 rep season. I did a quick google of search and it looks like he's been the Assistant Coach of the Fijian National Team, Head Coach of NTT Com in the Japanese Top League, as well as holding a...

    Have heard through the West Harbour grapevine that St Pats played a trial match against West’s on Saturday. Unsure about the lower grades but word is that the Pats 1st team got up 8 tries to 3 against West’s 2nd Grade team. Seems like the talent scouts at Pats have again “recruited” well...
