@stargazer Can we put the Blues in the OZ conference..?

Got smashed in both grades on the weekend. Now everyone is talking about contracting to one Grade.
Thing is, last two weeks were the toughest in the comp - away against the biggest sides who will probably contest the Grand Final short of a serious upset. Both heavy Islander influence (the backline were speaking almost exclusively Samoan yesterday) and some freaking awesome talent on display. Those guys could help Parramatta or Penrith at Premier level!
For the next five games its mostly smaller teams, mostly based out of the eastern suburbs, and we stand a chance of beating them in both grades with enough numbers. But if we don't snag 2 full Grades + 5 spare, then the Committee are calling Second Grade off, fuck the part-timers, and rebuild the club with just the one grade.
I'm still on the fence about that plan. Its not going to help the club grow, but then you could easily destroy a club through injuries.

Oh God AIG have released an extremely cringy "diversity" video with the All Blacks, probably in response to the Folau nonsense.
-
@no-quarter It was always going to be released at some point. Folau or no Folau.

@stargazer said in Aussie Rugby in general:
@no-quarter It was always going to be released at some point. Folau or no Folau.
Yeah, no doubt. It is cringy as hell though!
-
@no-quarter Yep!
-
@no-quarter You reckon the next jersey will have that rainbow In the armpit?
-
@Sapetyvi they've already butchered the jersey with the AIG logo, may as well add some rainbow colours as well...
-
@no-quarter I would say this has been in the pipelines since the stripper incident and some of the other off-field issues rugby players have been involved with in the past couple of years.
