Sydney Subbies 2022
- Thread starter Pfitzy
- Start date
I would have thought it is hard for UNSW to stack, with both their 1s and 2s in seemingly good positions with two games to go.

What a cracker of a night out at Boronia last night. Huge credit to both clubs for the turnout on a Cold wet night. Not sure too many other clubs would have 3 grades and colts as well as supporters during the week.
A good contest across all the grades as well. 1's was a class game with alot of energy for guys who had work during the day and would be backing up on the worksite this morning as well. The greasy conditions caused a bit of dropped ball but also due to some solid contact from both sides. Definitely a finals match come early.
Who said we couldnt beat Mosman again?

Round 14 for Div 4 this weekend - there are some games that mean a lot, and some that mean not much.
Merrylands v Epping - could decide some placings, and also maybe Epping can jump to 2nd spot on the ladder if other results go their way.
Mac Uni v Chatswood - nothing but pride riding on this one. Mac Uni are into finals, Chatswood are out. Both sides will be stacking up 2nd Grade to try and get that 6th spot in Grose Cup
Redfield v HAC - steady as she goes for Redfield, as they look toward finals.
Canterbury v Harbour - can't see anything but a big Harbour win. Good to see Berries back last week and hopefully they can finish the season well.
Raptors v Saints - a few of Saints 2s have already hung up the boots for the year, so it'll be lean numbers for both clubs in the west.
Renegades v Savers - fuck it: gotta back the boys. After last week's Disaster At Sommerville, time to restore some pride on Old Boys Day. How the fuck we can have 21 last week and 41 this week I'll never understand.
Grose Cup - got the top 5 sorted, while there are still 4 clubs with the potential to take 6th spot:
Chatswood 25pts (4 wins, -120fa)
HAC 25pts (4 wins, -133fa)
Mac Uni 24pts (5 wins, -85fa)
Renegades 23pts (3 wins, -123fa)
Chatswood beat Mac Uni with a bonus point and they're in
Mac Uni beat Chatswood with a bonus point AND Redfield beat HAC, or HAC win without a BP, they're in
HAC beat Redfield with a bonus point and have Mac Uni beat Chatswood without a bonus point (or draw), they're in
Renegades beat Savers with a bonus point, and HAC lose to Redfield, AND Chatswood and Mac Uni play out a low scoring draw, we're in
Remembering it is competition points, then most wins, then fewest losses, then for/against, then most "for" ...

running a women's tournament all of Sunday, I certainly am
The Women's tournament was a massive success I might add - great weather and if you can get 2 fields and your canteen running, it is quite lucrative. Just ran snags on the BBQ, and snacks + drinks and turned a tidy little profit for the club.

Any news out of Knox regarding the forfeits of 2's, 3's and 4's this week?
Are they destined for Div 5 next year if they can only field One grade? Subbies needs to step in and take some action here.
Also noted Barker looking for a 2nd grade game? Maybe they should ask UNSW if they want to have their game back from a few weeks ago. Is it just bad timing or convenience they were down to play a team below them on the ladder instead of 2nd place UNSW?

Div 2 Round 13
Some big clashes and some shit clashes this week in the run into finals. Lets get into it.
Sydney Harlequins vs Briars - Game only means something to the Quins as they’ll be hoping to keep a faint hope of making the top 6 alive with a win here. Barring an all time bedshit from Old Barker, their season is done. Last chance for Briars to snag a win this year, they have a lot of heart and will get up in a close one. Briars by 1
Beecroft vs Old Ignatians - Both teams playing for pride at this point of the year with Beecroft in the better form as of late. Crofties to avenge their round 2 choke against the Redmen. Beecroft by 30
Lindfield vs Newport - Bigggggg day inbound. It’ll be rocking down at Soldiers with big clashes across the grades especially in colts. Newport will be too good on enemy territory for the main event but who gives a fuck. I want to see that huge boat race.
Old Barker vs Blacktown - With the greatest respect, not a lot going on here. Old Barker squash the Quins hopes convincingly.
UNSW vs Hills - Expect to see a lot of crashing and bashing throughout all grades here. UNSW to remind Hills their a tier below the top dogs this year. UNSW by 14

Jeez that would be a good day to attend. Hope the weather gods are kind and the NSWRugby.tv coverage is good.

Regarding Barker I am honestly not sure. Looking at our team sheets we are missing a lot of players from the start of the year. I would say with Europe being full of Aussies right now and Ski Fields pumping i am sure rugby isnt a priority right now. Don't really blame them after the last 2 years. Ladies day this week might have helped get a few more numbers back

Back to the important Division
Kentwell
Forest - Knox. Do Knox have 15 first graders playing - or just 15 across the club. A few boys have been suspended until 2023. So likely that Forest do a number on them here - 30+?
HH - St Pats - What a cracker of a game. The boys have to back up on 4 days for this and St Pats will be up for this one with their end of season revival. They seem to only have a rolling maul. Feel sorry for their backline who touch the ball 2-3 times per game only. St Pats to lose this one late - HH by 2
Petersham - Colleagues. This will be a Non contest - Petersham wont stick with Colleagues. 15+
Blue Mountains - Drummoyne - Hard one to read. Blueys beat them mid year. Will Drummoyne get up to Lapstone for this. Is there a Bus trip. Are the WAGS invited? Too many questions, Blueys by 5
Mosman - Waverley - Mosman were good mid week, but 3 games in 8 days will take its toll. Waverley will be too big and too strong. 10+

Apologies if it’s already been mentioned but couldn’t find it. How many teams qualify for div 1 finals this year? Also are any venues confirmed for these fixtures or waiting on NSW Rugby. I know Woollahra oval seems to be a favourite of theirs understandably so.

I understand it is a Top 6. Finals are normally held where there 2 grounds and a fence to enable a gate.

Hearing rumours that Hornsby are struggling with the travel in the Central Coast comp and training numbers are a mess.
