    Latest news re Toowoomba's return to top grade...

    Is this a sign the Toowoomba/Mustangs return to Q cup next year. The Western Mustangs now have an affiliation agreement with the GC Titans. It would seem strange for an NRL club to set up a pathway with an entity that doesn't play at Qcup level. The Aquis Gold Coast Titans are pleased to...

    New Funding Program for Affiliated States / Territories

    Well. .guess it's a start. .its also matching funding as well i think so that helps spread it further. Nothing to say its the only funding to the state's, just promoting a particular program. Nice if it's just the start of some real concrete long term commitment.

    AFLBC

    Lovely fluff piece today on the AFL asian championships in vietnam. Refer to it as the Australian founded game. Meanwhile rl world Cup qualifiers and domestic comps springing up around the world remains in obscurity except to the die hards.

    West Coast Pirates Bid News

    I saw that. ..but it's quite a jump from that article to say that were getting a national reserve grade and that q and nsw cups will be third tier. It could just mean that perth joins nsw cup and act as a feeder for an existing nrl team like sunshine coast does for melbourne in qcup.

    West Coast Pirates Bid News

    where did you get this info, or are you reading between the lines. Only thing I recall seeing was Richos platinum league, and i get the feeling that that is just sitting on a shelf somewhere. I haven't seen anything firm on 2nd tier comps for a long time. If there is anything, could you...

    Revised QRL Pathways

    If it isn't an ARLC directive the QRL really are going backwards... really struggling to understand the rationale. High level juniors ie 15/16 need more incentive to stick with the game, not just be stuck playing against boys that are so far below them in skill and commitment that they become...

    Revised QRL Pathways

    Wow what an ill thought out shit concept. Qld kids will get left behind in development from a young age and will either miss opportunities or slip away due to leak of opportunities. Qrl really struggling in development If you go back in head to head results with nsw counterparts. ..seems like...

    Format for possible future State u/20's comp ?

    maybe some Queenslanders that probably didn't get due recognition because of the era they played in... Norm Carr, Des Morris, Gerry Fitzpatrick shield.

    Format for possible future State u/20's comp ?

    So true..its not like it's totally unknown as teams and regions are obviously starting their preparations for next year's comps whatever they are.

    Things you want to see on a dedicated nrl channel.

    Not sure where to put this, but here's some RL content to add. Found a replay of the 2016 South Aust ISC Rugby League GF to enjoy in the off season. http://www.spacequake.com.au/news/nrlsagrandfinal

    Format for possible future State u/20's comp ?

    Just browsing on the Vic RL website and I noticed that they are holding trials for Victoria reps in u16, u18, and u20s for the 2017 season. Wondering what comps they will be playing in... I was under the impression that in Qld the Cyril Connel Cup comp had been cut, which is where their 16s had...

    Qld Cup vs NSW Cup

    Junior rep results really highlight the gulf... Townsville teams appear a step above the majority of the Qld junior reps and have won the QLD CC and MM cups for the last two seasons, but have been well beaten in the National finals in those seasons.. its a big gap. Has Qld ever won an u20s...

    Qld Cup vs NSW Cup

    Hopefully just an anomaly but I'm not sure. I fear that our origin success has masked a floor in our development pathways. We lost every head to head this year apart from origin. ..national junior reps..u16 18 and 20 interstates. ..schoolboys. gio cup. . residents..womens..and now today...

    Central Coast Bears NRL Bid.

    I just wrote in the '2nd Brisbane team' forum that there needs to be something different for it to work well... maybe the Brisbane bears could be a viable option somehow?? I think there is some sentimental support for the old bears up in Brisbane, would be great to see the red and black back in...

    Second Brisbane Club

    I think thats just being pretty simplistic and not that helpful, especially if you don't know Brisbane. I don't really think geography makes a difference in this case... broncos have grown over 30 years in the NRL/ARL, so the bronco supporters and haters in Brisbane are pretty evenly dispersed...

    Rumoured Signings

    Yes, those two Queensland based academy's very unlikely to have potential future Qld rep players in them

    2016 Crowd Watch

    Maybe you should take it up with the raiders management to approach the nrl to reconsider the policy. Surely they need to be the ones to do this if it's an issue for the club and it's members.
