    I'm actually starting to feel sorry for the bloke. So much top coaching (NSW Aus Schoolboys to U20s, Tahs camp for 2 years) and and so many opportunities have been presented to him. Fantastic to see Jack Debrezceni doing so well at Melbourne. A true talent and what the NRC is about. A...

    Great first NRC semi. Tala Grey and Will Miller standouts in the forwards and Sam Windsor and Ed Stubbs in the backs. Somebody has to pick Miller up from his performances this NRC. Up by 10 at the break, game was lost for Country when the backs were changed with 20 to go. Poor options.

    Would that be the English supporters who are the dominant force in junior wold rugby , oh and not 1 but 2 U20 RWCs under the belt. R U In makes a good point that many at your club and outside of it think as well. The proof is in the pudding fellas. Get your head out of your backside and watch...

    Re Horewitz and 'other factors'. How about he's been on the books of a PR company since he was at Scots, who are pushing the line of 'the first Jewish Super Rugby Player'. Talk about not mixing religion and politics with sport , fair dink um it's been in every media release he's been involved...

    I don't disagree Kellaway is a class player and Deegan is developing. Horewitz has been good in one game all season and is generally regarded as a shirker who doesnt get involved particularly in defence. can't understand all the hype about him and have to put his waratah contract down to other...

    So Kelly's last hurrah was to rest his 'injured' GPS babe's Horwitz, Deegan and Kellaway. Though they were not injured. Because he knew Randwick had no chance he didn't want to risk an injury to them. I know how the other players felt about this -livid ! What does this tell you about this...

    Bravo for Kelly for putting on a GPS schools reunion. He'll be earning lots of brownies in the school halls long after his Randwick coaching days are over.

    Agree thoughts of Pete king and Pete Sullivan. Kelly's favouritism and nepostism, particularly with his Scots boys has not gone unnoticed. I think Boileau is a great player but there is little to differentiate him from Tim D or Nugget. He played badly last week and cost the side. Many have been...

    2014 IRB Junior World Championship – New Zealand

    From NSW, FABIAN NATOLI at Manly for one . Played 1XV and 2XV for last two seasons consistently well yet dropped for Pulver who plays 2XV colts ! Re Clark, he has developed well but like most of these shoe ins it is about the visibility and Opportunities they get that other boys do not. Many...

    Horwitz came on for 10 minutes and threw two cut 2 balls that would have got a NFL crowd on its feet !

    2014 IRB Junior World Championship – New Zealand

    I think we need to look at what a successful tournament for us is and gauge the outcome on that. After following this level of rugby for a number of years success for Australia is having boys from the right schools representing us, so we can stand in the old school bars and tell each other how...

    2014 IRB Junior World Championship – New Zealand

    Gone are the days when England hoped for rain at any level. Watching the games the other day, they have far more speed and skill out wide than us so it should probably be us that hope for the rain ! The Argies tried nothing out wide. If it does rain, we're going to need improvement in the maul.

    Norton played very well. His speed of transition and how he attacks the line are great attributes that Ford didn't bring. Although he had a mixed day with his goal kicking Liam, fills the positional kicking gap. 're nugget, I think he's in the prove himself phase as a returnee from UK with...

    I think we'll do OK in the lower grades due to depth in the club but cant see 1's winning this one. We beat Easts in round 1 because they were poor and lacked fitness (not ability) at season start. This is a game we must win as the hard run home starts next week ! Incidentally, would love...

    The captain has to be a person whose spot is pretty certain, to provide continuity. Players should not be picked based on the captaincy. I don't see this certainty in the back or second row, so for me the obvious choice is from the front row. Impacts both pos and neg of shifting captain should...

    Few positives to take out of yesterday other than a W. Lacked structure and cohesion in forwards and backs. Pos - scrums, Maafu. Negs- control of field position, ball transition across back line, composure in contact. If no Nicholson next week, I would swap Ethan and Liam. Munro does not...
