    QLD Colts - 2016

    Well guys great reading when away and watching the tipsters play out over the last few weeks and who knows their stuff about Colts in 2016. Just to throw a couple more names into Colt of the Year scenario the Sunnybank 10 and 15 and also 8. McNamara was away with the Aust U20's and played every...

    QLD Colts - 2016

    My mate told me this morning that the Bank v Brothers game was a cracker. Brothers were ahead and the Bank came back to draw and then the fullback number 22 kicked the winning kick from the sideline. He said 22 also scored a good try in the 1st half. Is 15 Coward injured or got injured? Tough...

    QLD Colts - 2016

    Yes Sunnybank on fire. A look at player statistics and you will see 2 of the players from the Bank are the top 5 points scorers. Interesting that 1 of those players Coward is on Top with only 6 games under his belt and way ahead from 2nd place for Premier colts. Also I think he is in the top 2...

    2016 Under-20 Rugby World Championships - Manchester UK

    I travelled down and watched the game last night and yes all your comments are pretty much on the ball. My question is if there are better players on the bench why didn't they start (namely Sione)? If the 9's are the best running around in U20's we are big trouble. I know Tuttle is with the Reds...

    Rebels 2016

    Yes played well and have to agree with Tex was a standout. Did he make the final cut of U20 Aust squad?

    Which Clubs are the Class of 2015 going to?

    Heard from a good source that we in Qld have grabbed a Rebel and it is Josh Coward. He is playing at Sunnybank. Good addition to the Qld U20's program and will fit well into the Sunnybank 7's program. Will be interesting to see if he stays in Qld or goes back to Rebels at the end of the Qld...

    2016 Under-20 Rugby World Championships - Manchester UK

    I agree with what Silverado has commented above. The Rebels did shut them down from where I was watching. The Tah's 15 was moved to 10 in the 2nd Half to change the way they were playing and it sort of helped, or was it because Coward was showing him up at 15? The Tah's scrum changed when...

    2016 Under-20 Rugby World Championships - Manchester UK

    Seymour Blitz and Linespeed travelled down to watch the Reds play and lucky to see the U20's. Was a good game. Tongan Thor met his match being put on his backside not once but 3 times. He also sustained an ankle injury in the beginning of the match. The defense of the Rebels was good putting the...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2015

    Well it has been a while been traveling and looking forward to getting down to watch the games tomorrow. Looks as though all the G&G experts have the team picked and it is all NSW and Qld. There was no other states where a player or 2 is not good enough? Maybe time to take the Reds and Tah...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2015

    Looking from a far from north of the border, the Vic team looks as though they have made their selections and some players seen before in JGC. I have heard from a few and reading Facebook (Melbourne Rebels site) that a certain Josh Coward has missed out. How a current Aust. U18 7's squad member...

    QLD GPS Rugby 2015

    Yep your right can't be turning or 19 in that particular year. I also agree on 16 yr old vs 18yr old, have coached for over 15 years at all levels and the state rep sides with 16yr olds with 18yr olds teams really struggle and the U16's not up to it. The only exception would they have to be...

    2015 ARU 7s Age Championships and Commonwealth Youth Games

    As far as I know all are still in the squad and will depend on the next couple of camps I believe. Not close enough I just hear along the rugby grape vine.

    2015 ARU 7s Age Championships and Commonwealth Youth Games

    Yes I also heard phone calls were made and a couple are not going to camp 2 I believe. The next camp is where they may make more changes. I heard all the boys did well and there was some good talent and skill level in the girls as well. Good luck to the head and assistant coaches a hard job to...

    2015 ARU 7s Age Championships and Commonwealth Youth Games

    By the way lets cast the mind back to the national 7's 6 weeks ago and who played in the finals and who didn't. It is not all about Qld as there were a lot of good players in the other states who played better than the Qld players and also NSW players over the 2 days. Hence why the selections...

    2015 ARU 7s Age Championships and Commonwealth Youth Games

    Have no idea about who is going or not this weekend. But heard more about testing and then games to see who is up to the game of 7's.
