    Tumut Rugby League have run a Pub 9's Competition in recent years as discussed in the following article. It appears to be run as a pre-season competition though is done differently from regular 9's comps as it runs over a series of weeks and involves local pubs rather than registered Rugby...

    2013 Bundy Cup

    Chase Mason has also been reported to have signed with the Bathurst Panthers and Wyong Roos for next season so will be interesting to see where he ends up. Ricky Whitton, a former Cowra Magpies premiership winning half and Western Division representative, has been training with Guildford.

    2013 NSW Cup

    Wests Tigers have proposed a unified NSW Cup team though this still has to be approved by Wests Magpies members. A group at the Magpies are pushing for Wests Ashfield to again fund a NSW Cup team though it seems a combined Tigers outfit is likely. Melbourne have indicated their support for a...

Congratulations must also go to the NSWRL for the success of yesterdays event with approximately 5000 fans in attendance. Hopefully continued promotion of the...

    2012 Bundy Cup

    Wenty took the double at St Marys Leagues Stadium defeating Cabramatta in the Sydney Shield and The Entrance Tigers in the Bundy Cup decider. The lead changed hands several times in the last 10 minutes in an exciting game after The Entrance had lead for the majority of the game. A trip to the...

    2012 NSW ICCC - Sydney

    Thanks footy59. Seems to be a convincing win to Hurstville in the top grade, impressive considering they started the year in 2nd division! I wonder if any current ICCC clubs are considering following the lead of Auburn and Burwood-Ryde in entering the Bundy Cup. Considering Kingsgrove's poor...

    FTA coverage of NSW Cup

    The Shute Shield continues to be shown on ABC at 3pm and it seems the current broadcasting deal restricts the NSW Cup to Foxtel. Hopefully we'll see the NSW Cup being broadcast live on Saturdays from 3pm at least. The new rights deal stipulates that 3 games from Toyota Cup, Schoolboys and NSW...

    2012 Bundy Cup

    Congratulations to Guildford for seemingly qualifying for the 2012 Sydney Shield finals with their win on the weekend. Assuming 4 teams qualify Mounties look to miss out on points differential, which is interesting as their NSW Cup and Bundy squads also look like just missing the cut to make the...

    Structure of NSWRL and CRL Comps going forward

    Regarding Sydney metropolitan senior rugby league I think a restructure is definitely worth consideration. The ICCC has shown the benefits of a divisional structure and provided competitive fixtures across the 3 divisions. Currently the ICCC competition involves the St George, Balmain...

    2012 Bundy Cup

    In regards to St Johns there website mentions a 'Bundy Cup Business Club' and I assume this is where they gain the required funds. Sydney Bulls operated successfully for years with a similar model. As already mentioned though they also benefit from a strong junior club with many past players...

    PNG Team in QLD Cup 2013

    I like the 'PNG United' suggestion. The bid has been linked to improving the education and health of the people of PNG by using the club to promote important health campaigns and improved education. To achieve this the club needs to be accessible to all Papua New Guinean's, and what better way...
