    Time To Get Serious - Where Are We Sitting?

    According to our own site: 18-Sep-06 Where to Sit At Telstra Stadium on Saturday, September 23rd All Jets supporters would be aware that Newtown plays the Dragons in the VB Premier League Preliminary Final at Telstra Stadium at 3.30pm, Saturday, September 23rd. The Jets play the Sydney Bulls...

    Auckland side to join Premier League

    They had the best solution in 2000 when the Jets were their Premier League feeder. After the Tainui went kablooey, the NZRL put the kybosh on it. Only taken them five years to figure out that their young 'uns need a tougher prep than Bartercard can provide. If they hook up with a Sydney...

    Time To Get Serious - Where Are We Sitting?

    O.K. - the hard bit's already been done. The Jets have gutsed their way into both the JBC Grand Final and the Premier League Preliminary Final - to be held at Telstra this Saturday arvo. So, I'm flying in at 6.15am on the Saturday. I'm coming 5000 miles to see the 'Bags take out the first of...

    Women in league and touch footy

    You need to play/see it played at a high level. I watched the NZ Touch Academy and "Fusion" (i.e. bits of their national and junior sides) team go at it in Singapore at the end of the Asian Club Championships a few moths back. Definitely a case of go hard or go home. Despite the prohibition...

    Jets through to JBC Final

    Which will be played when? Please not bloody Friday night, I hope. I'll still be on a plane from Zhong guo-ville then. What a dopey idea to have the finals Friday/Sat and not to have a final on Sunday. This "RL is not a sport to be played in daylight hours" thing is a cancer on our...

    Tickets/seating arrangements for Jets finals matches

    I think I've figured this out. Logically, if they wait till after this weekend to decide which day/where the Jets are playing, by then they'll know two things. 1. Whether our JBC team will be in the JBC GF (i.e. if we get past Cabra this weekend). 2. Who we're playing in our semi. Either...

    What do you reckon to introducing contested scums & line-outs to League?

    Bring back contested scrums, yes. Lineouts - never. The contested scrums are really not a problem. That's why they brought in the differential penalty in the early 80s. Then Arko & Quayle came along and were allowed to dilute the integrity of the game by leaving the scrums in but ignoring...

    Tickets/seating arrangements for Jets finals matches

    Ta Bluebag43. I knew that, but when will we know whichone we're playing? One of those finals is at Aussie, the other is at Telstra.

    Grand Final coverage in Asia

    Add to that Shanghai here. I'll be back in Oz hopefully watching the Jets win the PL (and JBC too, for that matter) GF. Anyone who ends up stuck here on match day could do worse than get to the Koala Bar on Huai Hai Lu (near Fanyu Lu). The owner, Nick, is a leaguie from Sydney and a few...

    Tickets/seating arrangements for Jets finals matches

    I wasn't expecting the club to buy them for us - I have some slight idea of the club's economic limitations - but NRL clubs do get an allocation for their season ticket holders - i.e. they get first crack at the tickets via Ticketek. Therefore no requirement for the club concerned to buy the...

    Tickets/seating arrangements for Jets finals matches

    Hi folks, Just a couple of quick questions here: I'll be back in Oz from early on the 23rd of September and would dearly love to see the Bluebags' finals matches (in both PL and JBC) if at all possible. So - is the club getting any allocation of tickets for these matches? Also, is there...

    Flash Score From the Semi, Anyone????

    OK I'll answer my own question. 2GB have said it's St. Mary's 10 - Newtown 0.

    Flash Score From the Semi, Anyone????

    As I am in Shanghai, China, I'm finding it a little hard to come by any info on tonights semi at Henson. If anyone hears anything by phone or whatever, could they put it up on this thread please???? Many thanks - TDT-1

    ABC Interest in PL

    I was the first to tackle Ian Knight on this (from about 1998 and again every year thereafter - back then it was to get Metro on TV) and I applaud Bluebag for keeping up the fight. It's worth noting that Ch 9 waived the "NRL players not to appear in any other televised comp" clause in their...

    JBC: Newtown v Windsor - 7pm Friday Night

    But it does appear to have had an effect on our web-site - I can't seem to be able to open it from here. You guys haven't posted something nasty about the PRC government, have you? Nah. Can't even raise the homepage with a web proxy. Curious.

    A Film Featuring the Jets?

    I stand corrected. Nevertheless, as per the quote from the paper: "The plot revolves around Johns's relationship with one of his players, Mick "Grub" Henderson, who is being rubbed out of the game." It sure sounded ominous to me in isolation. I was worried it might be some sort of...

    Jets Vs Canterbury/Bankstown Saturday 22/7

    Just heard on the radio (via the net) that the Eels went down to Balmain RE - where does that put us on the table? If I'm up to date with things, we'd be equal but behind on for/against. If the trend continues, we could be leading the comp! Go the 'Bags!!!

    Jets Vs Sharks Saturday 15/7

    Watch my organs? I haven't touched a keyboard in decades (by public demand). Only committing mayhem on bass and guitar nowadays. Re returning for the GF, as luck would have it, my brother-in-law's getting married around the same time, so I WILL be back in town that week. I wouldn't miss it...
