Going to get minced up front but I am pleased to see Wilson Bowen get a start as backfoot as it might be. Reilly also deserved a call up to start.

(prior to the establishment of the Southern Rugby Football Union in 1874) All credit for the historical research must go to @Red Son. There is plenty more to come. I will fill in the gaps when I get ...

Who was the “Premier Club of the Colony of New South Wales” ? If you are interested in Sydney club rugby you would think that it would be quite easy to find out who were the premiers from the time of ...

Have to respectfully disagree with the proposal, though I appreciate the time and thought put into it. I agree there aren't enough professional opportunities in Rugby in Australia, and that combined ...

I'm preparing myself for a barrage of @Dismal Pillock images tonight. Not feeling optimistic about this game and the start hasn't been encouraging.
