    @Kiwiwomble there should be BUT the camera stream seems to be missing for that period.

    Thing is I don't know if I connected or whether anything is visible from that angle, so I could be in just as much trouble 🙂

    full respect for still committing to the ball despite the almost crippling fear 😉 ....he says safely from the sideline

    i imagine you'll get a glowing endorsement form the board though!

    we have a card early in the year get reduced from 6-3 weeks at least partially because i got on to explain all the stuff said player does around the club other than playing....didn't know that was a thing but i jumped on it when they asked

    I not sure if this discussion should be on this thread, but what the hell is this schmozzle happening with Easts in Shute Shield. Exceeded the allowable points of players in a couple of games, and being treated as 'whoops we made a mistake' sorry about that, and no penalty?
    From reading from afar looks to be pretty iffy, almost like a favoured club scenario.

    @Dan54 allowable points of players? like too many players on the bench or something

    Must've been some effort to move the posts...

    @mariner4life its still a line going through it, didn;t say THE goal line, hell...the dead ball line would have made more sense to me as far as a full on mistake

    I'm surprised WR hasn't adopted the solution of permitting goal posts to be moved. Only last week while warming up with some touch footy, one of our players munted himself colliding with a post. Then new grounds and improvements could slowly get them out of the way. As it is you can't score against the base of them anymore and there'd be the benefit of not having as many penalties attempted from over halfway.

    This is purely a Premier Rugby thing here in Sydney as far as I can tell.

    Players are given a points value depending on things like whether they're a test or pro player etc. You get discounts if you're a local junior and such.

    The idea is like a salary cap - even playing field. Sample sheet:

    Of course when you've got Julian Heaven, who has recent years playing pro Rugby, including recently at the Tahs, I'm not sure how any discount gets him to 1 point

    @NTA It's also in Hospital Cup in Qld to I think. Mate from there was the one who explained it to me. Seems reasonable system and not sure how Easts can claim they made mistakes etc.
    Just a thing of mine with some clubs seem to be able to bend/break rules and get away with it.
    Something my club in Brisabne had to fight all the time not being a prem club, but not a Subbies, we actually played in Senior first down (to prevent us becoming a prem club) because of some dodgy rules up theer a few years back and were always copping shit like this.

    @Dan54 SRU aka the Shute Shield Clubs are a law unto themselves. And within that there is a clique - a handful of those clubs like Easts who tell the others to suck their dick, and the silly fluffybunnies bring their own lip balm. I don't get it.

    I see that he has settled in Melbourne and bought a Jim's Mowing franchise.

    I'd love to be tackling him. Great story to tell your mates... if you survive.

    Even if he goes over you like Lomu did to Mike Catt, still something to remember!
