Onto more important matters: our club is running a charity day tomorrow as our major preseason fixture. Raising money for Neuroblastoma Australia. It is a right fluffybunny of a cancer, typically taking very young children - the day is named after one of our players' little girls who succumbed at 22 months
Schedule is here:
I'll be playing 20 minutes of Third Grade (vs Mosman) and then have to ref the other 2 x 20 minute periods, followed by reffing the two women's 7s games after that, probably. Hopefully by the time the main event rolls around, I've got a beer in one hand and a smoked brisket roll in t'other.
If you are in Sydney, google maps for "Renegades Rugby" to find out how to get there. Kicking off 11.30AM. It's a charity day so bring your credit card, ya mug
If you can't get there and you're bored of a Saturday, it will be livestreamed via CluchTV which I think has no regional restrictions: https://www.cluch.tv/page/605aac8e1de1c4001bc4ffcb
And you can try the auction to get the best thing in pink jerseys since some of those French club sides had a crack:

Good luck though and hope you raise a shit ton of $!
Got just shy of $12k last year after Covid fucked us. Going for $20k this year...
Awesome.
I have zero interest in winning that atrocity of a jersey that you're flogging, but if there is a way to donate then I'm in for $30 for each scrum penalty or tighthead that you're involved in (won, as a player not a ref!), up to $120. Minimum donation of $50 if you take the field at all.

Hot! I got my 20 minutes at hooker, 40 minutes ref thirds followed by 2 games of women's 7s, and was halfway through AR duties in 2s when a migraine hit.

Stink about the migraine mate.
Did you win any tightheads or scrum penalties? How much do I owe?
Actually, I'll just chip in a hundy, it's an awesome cause and you've given about 2hrs of effort resulting in a fucking migraine.
Good effort mate.

Wow.
NSW Waratahs part ways with Rob Penney
The NSW Waratahs and Head Coach Rob Penney have parted ways, effective immediately, with the coach informed of the decision this morning.
The Board’s decision was taken after consultation with the CEO and the High-Performance Committee following five consecutive defeats with three of them record losses, and after last night’s 46 to 12 loss to the Queensland Reds.
The Waratahs acknowledge that Penney has been coaching an inexperienced roster of players relative to the other states, however following match reviews, the Board was not convinced there was enough significant improvement in the team to have him continue in the role.
NSW Waratahs CEO Paul Doorn thanked Penney for his contribution as head coach over the past two seasons.
“The decision to part ways with Penney was not taken lightly,” he said.
“Being the coach of the NSW Waratahs is one of the most high-profile and high-pressure roles in Australian rugby.
“Rob is extremely professional and has put a great deal of effort into the role. However, the on-field performances this season have not met expectations and we feel that, in the best interests of the Waratahs, now is the time to make a change.”
Doorn thanked Penney for his work in managing a new generation of players, many of whom will become household names for the Waratahs in the future.
“His commitment and concern for the players through a disruptive season and amid trying circumstances is testament to his character and we wish him and his family all the best for the future,” he said.
NSW Waratahs Assistant Coaches Jason Gilmore and Chris Whitaker have been named as interim Head Coaches for the remainder of the 2021 season, allowing for a smooth transition for the players and staff.
Gilmore has a long association with a host of the young talent at the Waratahs after coaching many of them at the Junior Wallabies in the team that made the Under 20s World Cup Final in 2019.
Whitaker, a former Wallaby and a 100 cap Waratah, has been an assistant coach with the team since 2019.
The Waratahs have also announced they will shortly commence the search for a new Head Coach for the 2022 season. -
@stargazer doubling down on administrative incompetence. What is a coach supposed to do when he inherits such a shit squad?

Even so. The results were beyond bad and it will give the new temporary coaches a chance. But its almost unbelievably. Winners a few years back to this
