    Queensland Junior Rugby

    2 trial games down, and my boy's teams have had 2 wins. Great start to the season for Brothers u10 Silver and u12 Green. D'Arcy playing No7 this year from Lock (first year with 15 players on the field) and J-Dog at No2. Usual schamozzle at the start of a season but having the new facilities at...

    Reds vs Bulls - Rd6

    "The TMO on the other hand had a shocker and if those two ‘tip’ tackles are the benchmark for yellow cards in 2013 rugby is going soft – ." Damn straight.

    Reds vs Bulls - Rd6

    I was at the game and it was epic. Fuck some people are hard to please. It was a Cliffhanger. Some great attack, stoic Defence, big hits, lead swaps, Agro, nail biting finish after the bell. Fun suckers and wet blankets should seriously just stfu.

    The Climate Change Thread

    There is some pretty well reasoned discussion in the article in that second link. Like this: clivebest on 26 October, 2012 at 10:56 am @ John Let’s look at Vostok again. From the paper I cited, “extension of the Vostok CO2 record shows the present-day levels of CO2 are unprecedented during...

    Horwill will make a big difference up front, even not fully fit. If Genia, Cooper and Digby fire we'll get there.

    Queensland Junior Rugby

    The u11 Chatswood Challenge was played yesterday at Bottomley Park hosted generously by Easts. 31c at midday so the 2x10 minute halves format was a good idea. We had strong lineups from Easts, the Div 1 Premier side from Albany Creek, a Brothers Throwtogether side from White, Silver, Green and...

    The TV Broadcasting of Australian Rugby

    It would have to be at a deep, deep discount and you'd want to leave behind commitments like the NRL contract and go in fresh to renegotiate. Network broadcasters are at the start of a difficult period where new technology is totally disrupting their business model. I don't think any of the...

    Chatswood u11's on Tour

    This from my Club today: "An U11 Chatswood touring team from Sydney has organized a game at Easts next Saturday. Brothers is going to put together a team from all of our U11 teams to play against the Sydney team and Easts. If your child is available for a game next Saturday morning (6/10) can...

    They'll have to protect the NRL rights come hell or high water. They default and lose those and it's all over red rover. And if it was a close run thing, I reckon the NRL would provide some indulgence on timing for payments, stretching it out a bit etc. What's their alternative? They need to...

    Bond bought it off Kerry for 2 billion, with 1.8 in cash and .2 in some sort of redeemable share. He defaulted on his obligations and Kerry basically got it back for the .2, showing a 1.8B profit. Then Jamie sold it for about 1.4B so it's made them 3.2B on a couple sales. If he's smart he'll...

    Surf Life Saving Help

    I like the rowing angle, but the only school on the GC with a rowing program would be TSS wouldn't it? A lot of Brisbane families have their kids in the Alexandra Headland club on the Sunny Coast. Maybe try to target ex-pat Gold Coasters living in Brisbane who now have young kids and create a...
