    Penrith Emus

    here's hoping they reach those lofty heights you mention. I think you are incorrect that Ben Tuipulotu played for Tonga. His brother did. But Ben was too busy playing whilst suspended! Players returning 'home'............interesting analogy.

    the sooner the clubs stop paying players, the better it will be for the financial health of those clubs.

    John I Dent Cup - Canberra Competition -

    isn't it a rule of the ACTRU that clubs are not to pay players match fees and sign ons etc. They can provide jobs and accommodation but that's it?

    Shute Shield 2012 ins and outs

    Saw Murray play last year. He's not bad. The Emu's brought in 3 guys from Waikato last year. part of the arrangement was that Penrith would provide accommodation. .......they put mattresses on the floor of the clubhouse and said, 'macca's is up the road boys, showers downstairs'. Welcome to...

    Dan Parks to Perth?

    Technically there was, the rule at the time was that if you want to play Super Rugby you MUST declare you were willing to only be eligible for Australia. You also had to be playing in australia to play for australia. This last rule is still the case. Parks made the decision (and it was the...

    John I Dent Cup - Canberra Competition -

    He is leaving Parramatta yes. He has told Easts in Sydney he will join them and they are expecting him. However, he has told Whites the same thing too apparently.

    ARU politics

    I agree that board has a fair share of accountability here too. However continuing to raise the issue of the financial losses incurred when Flowers was CEO is somewhat unfair in my opinion. Yes, the ARU posted an 8 million dollar loss in his first year in the job, but how much of that was...

    ARU politics

    Whether or not the man city thing is true is irrelevant in my opinion. What is though is that JON somewhere in his twisted version of reality may just be considering leaving before the end of his current term. And in my humble opinion, that can ONLY be a good thing for Australian Rugby. Don't...

    Penrith Emus

    Now that most clubs have been back training for a month after the silly season, can anyone provide feedback on how the numbers are going at the Emu's. I assume the official line from the club will be that they have 4 grade and 3 Colts sides training and then they'll pull 2 colts side out of the...

    NSW Suburban Rugby 2012

    Forgive my ignorance. I just looked up Northmead on google maps...............and the first question that popped in my mind was, if Beecroft are advertising in lower Hills for players to play 1st Division......then isn't Parramatta the 1st Division club in the area? Appreciate this is a...
