@nta My nephew is scoring bucket loads of tries for Uni at the moment so with what you have just said there will probably be a few more on the way this afternoon. Queue my confidence in that for him to suddenly stop scoring!!! We don't seem to be getting Shute Shield coverage on TV over here this year which is a bit of a shame, hopefully it might resume a bit later in the season........................

Did not reverse jinx the nephew as he rolled in for at least one try (about six or seven for the season so far). The second half must have seen interested spectators invited to have half a game given the paucity of scoring after the break!
MATCH REPORT | Resilent Students keep Emus scoreless to remain top - Sydney Uni Football Club

Midweek tests.
The Wallabies and France will meet in three tests in the space of just 11 days in July, with the teams playing two midweek tests. The first test is in Sydney on Wednesday, July 7 at the SCG followed by a Tuesday night Melbourne match at AAMI Park on July 13 and a final test on Saturday, July 17 at Brisbane's Suncorp Stadium. The condensed series is due to French club commitments and hotel quarantine for the visitors. -
Nephew 4 plays 4th Grade in Sydney and has a 9.00 AM start at St Pauls College Oval tomorrow. Not sure what to make of that but over here they would be playing on adjacent fields to the Under 6 Ripper grade at that hour of the day! At least his clubmates playing in the Senior 3rd grade have the luxury of a lie in in the morning as they have a 10.25am start.

Crazy scheduling. The Premier Rugby schedule at the moment is supposed to have 3 Grades + 2 Colts sides.
Several clubs have pulled back to less than this - a couple of the struggling clubs are back to 1-2 Grades and 0-1 Colts - and Premier Rugby thinks it is sustainable.

@nta Well it looks like they mustered enough guys to play considering the ungodly kick off time and snuck home 22 - 17. Just as well Sydney does not have the winters places like Waipukurau do over here as the frost will still be in full bloom on the ground at that kick off time!!!!!! Didn't stop the kids having to play in bare feet during my days all those years back though although I must concede that things have changed slightly and you are allowed to wear boots now where my grandchildren play.
