Glebe result was 40-8 (10 tries to 2 - no goal-kicking). Bar TV didn’t record two of them for some reason so reported 32-8 but was 40. It was basically Shield and Massey trials back-to-back/combined.

Is there still a points based system in RMC?
There is a point system in every open age grade of rugby league played in NSW except NSW Cup. There are also restrictions of the level of movement of players between clubs in age grade comps in Junior Leagues.

The 5 players who played both RMC and NRL during last season – Kit Laulilli & Tim Johannsen (Ryde Eastwood), Lorenzo Mulitalo & Jake Tago (Wenty) and Lipoi Hopoi (Canterbury) – represents the most in a season since 2008, when Shellharbour Marlins were a direct feeder to the St George-Illawarra NRL team.

St George had decided not to enter the NSW Cup comp that year but the original intention was to allocate all those not selected for NRL to the Illawarra clubs, which had quite a strong competition in those days. Initially only 2 journeymen were sent to Shellharbour – Jon Green, who played the full season bar 1 game for St George, having played 6 games for the Bulldogs in the previous 2 seasons, but was more a regular at the Sharks in the following 5 seasons, and Joe Falemaka, who never played NRL.

After losses to Belrose and Mounties, the Marlins received Ben Ellis, who was dropped from NRL after round 4, as well as Frank Samia, another who never played NRL. In Round 10, Wendell Sailor’s drug suspension expired and he signed autographs for an hour in Windsor Leagues Club after his first game. He stayed for 3 games and when he went into the NRL, Matt Prior came in for 3 games. For 9 consecutive games they had 4 top 30 players in the team and the last of those games the beat the leaders, Sydney Bulls 26-18 and the Marlins were then only 1 point behind new leaders, Mounties.

But as players returned to the NRL they started to lose games but they flogged Erina, with a side that included mid season transfer, Ben Rogers, who is the only player to date to play for 2 NRL clubs and a 3rd tier club in the same season.

The top 5 were well clear of the remainder, with 5th placed Shellharbour finishing 6 points in front of Erina, and Wenty, who had players diverted to NSW Cup in their first season in that comp could do no better than 7th of 12.

By the semis Shellharbour were back the original 2 St George players but beat Cabra, who took Branighan into the game when he was on 1 leg and paid the price. The following week an excellent first half saw the Marlins in front at the break but Mounties finished too strong.

5 players played NRL that season, with 4 of those in the quarter final team and at least 7 top 30 players played in the team with different combinations of 4 playing in half the games. In the Marlins first season they won only 2 games, but 4 or 5 of those players were with the club in NSW Cup the following season as they developed well playing with full time players.

New member sign up for Glebe Dirty Reds.

Brisbane based and no personal link to Glebe ... just wanted to support one of the original clubs of Australia.

As far as I can tell Glebe has a relationship/ affiliation with Sydney Roosters.

Others connections I believe are;

* Penrith Brothers - Panthers

* Blacktown Workers - Bunnies

* Cabramatta - Eels

* Ryde Eastwood - Wests Tigers (via Western Suburbs Magpies ?)

* St. Mary's - Panthers

* Wentworthville / Wentworthville United - Eels

* Moorebank. - Bulldogs

The Canterbury and Manly teams links to the NRL clubs is assumed.

Not sure about the links for Mounties and Hills District.

Happy to be corrected on any of the above.

On a side issue, it would be great to see a traditional game between Glebe and Fortitude Valley in Brisbane. Original clubs of Sydney and Brisbane respectively.
