Didn't attack my family? You told me to stop following rugby and stop letting my kids play it. I don't mind them getting injured. Its all part of a contact sport. If they want to play, I'll let them play. If they want to stop, I won't force them to continue. I'm more concerned with mental...

Mate, you're off your tracks. We had laid that to rest some time ago. You choose to dig up the past and create a big huff over something long forgotten. No one cares. Who are you to dictate my life and hobbies? And what cowardly nerves you have to attack my family. If my worry for player...

I was at Breen and appreciated the professionalism of the ref from what I saw (had to leave just before half-time). I'm still stumped by the advantage he gave to Gregs for offside (I think) that went from the 50 to the 22. Can someone clarify?

I am a Pats boy, through and through. Blue, black, and gold runs in my blood. I honestly hated playing Stannies, not because they were great - honestly glad Auggies are being beat - at rugby, but because they were arrogant. Home town refs and dubious calls that only seem to ever happen at...

Just going to put out there that there is dubious refereeing at Stannies. During my time playing, three memories are prominent in my mind: The first is when Stannies set up a rolling maul five metres out from our line. The maul collapses and the ball, as the ref called correctly, was held up...

I, too, find it perplexing that Pius has far more players than Pats (3 players) and Oakhill (4 plyers) across the board for the ISA I, II, and III teams. This comes from considering that their 1st XV are competing in the 2nd XV competition, which, if these 6 players are selected on their...

It is true that relegation/promotion will be an obstacle that needs to be overcome if ever there is to be a combined schools rugby comp. Having thought about it, I can think of one possible solution. Because the Opens Grade is a combination of Years 11 and 12, the previous season's Opens...

I can't help but feel that how Greg's plays its teams and players is unbalanced and detrimental to the ISA. I was at Campbelltown last Saturday watching Gregs 15As vs Pats 15Bs. If that doesn't seem fair, hold your breath. Two of the players in the Gregs side wore jerseys saying "U16 League" on...

Why don't they do a combined CAS/ISA comp? If the GPS doesn't want a part of it, then its their loss. Numbers wise, the comp would still be big with 22 schools involved. The situation at Gregs and Pius is a joke. On Pius first. If Pius are unable to competitively field their 1st XV in Division...

Funnily enough, I had been talking with mates about it last week. We thought, if all 28 schools elected to compete, there could be five divisions. Divs 1 and 2 would have 5 schools, and Divs 3, 4, and 5 would have 6 schools. We didn't exactly come to an agreement on whether schools should play...

Some interesting news came my way yesterday. Earlier this week there was a big meeting between the ISA, GPS, and the CAS. They met to discuss a proposal to have a combined schools rugby competition to replace the regular ISA, GPS, and CAS competitions (that's 28 schools if you include ISA...
