Sydney Subbies 2022

I know nothing of the man and wish him all the best (should he exist) but Jesus Christ could be the next coach and would still struggle to rein in what's going on at Lyons Road; because I've heard it all.

It's not often a juggernaut is brought to its knees like this.
Do we have an old fashioned player revolt? Where are these players going? Mid season transfers could bolster a few of those clubs that love a good stack job to take silverware away from legitimate contenders

I must be careful given the watchful eyes on this thread. My man on the ground provided scant details on the specifics you're after but if not mid-season, certainly before next I expect an exodus from Taplin that would rival the Israelites.

Players partners getting involved makes things tricky - otherwise matters could be settled with the old, "bring your mouthguard to training"...

Can we get a report from the Bartenders sisters best friend at the Oxford Hotel who saw something in the after match function? I am very intrigued about this. Player Partners getting involved will never end well.
For us at the Bayview we just have a few beers and listen to Oz Icons play every week. Its a good spot

Back to the rugby... Eastcoast that will be quite a day at Boronia. Thankfully the weather looks good - how's the surface? CluchTV might get a good workout in if the game is close as expected.

I will stick with my BM tip in 4 grade but Mosman are no pushovers especially at home. If BM jag a result you can most definitely shut that comp down for the year.

I don't wish to elaborate at this time lest I be accused of muckracking. Should more information come to light I will update as appropriate; for now their position on the ladder says enough.

The Bayview is indeed good, definitely in the top 3 rugby-adjacent watering holes around the traps (of which the Oxford Hotel is not). Do they have Stan Sport?

Don't see much point doing a div 2 selections this week, HV by 50, Beecroft 30, Hills 40, UNSW 30, Linfield 20. Can Blacktown pull off an upset?

What’s going on this weekend! Council closing grounds is recking havoc:
- Mosman and Blue Mountains postponed;
- Blacktown and Beecroft postponed;
- Canterbury forfeiting;
- Raptors forfeiting at home…
Edit: Blueys/Whales back on at Lapstone. Well done to all involved.

Hearing very strong rumours that one club, that features prominently here, are not being perturbed by the recent spate of penalties against players and clubs for dual registrations/personalities. They previous changed the spelling of a players name to allow him to play, knowing he was registered elsewhere. And could have more players in the same/similar boats.
I bet this one doesn't make it to the Thursday list.

My goodness why do some teams feel the need to do that?
