No news on that front.

 

[Perth Red]

Great to see one of perths newest clubs get a couple of players in the u18’s side, well done Ellenbrook.

 

[ATOWN2]

No SA teams for both 17s and Seniors. They probably wouldn't have won a game, but NRL SA is a poor administration that can't even organise teams to enter a CAS comp.

 

[Perth Red]

Apparently games are being streamed, but even nrlwa doesn’t have the link yet lol.

That would be the first time in a long time they haven’t entered a snr mens team.
Reality is given the pittance i know WA gets from nrl, and we are the third strongest RL state in the country, I can only imagine the amount of investment in SA the NRL is making lol I mean they haven’t even got a website!

 

[Perth Red]

And we have it lol

Why is this being played in qlnd not in WA or Vic?
why do they still call it affiliated states when they are not?
why do teams play back to back games on same day?

 

[ALX25]

The field has surprisingly held up well with the deluge.

 

[Perth Red]

Good start for our mens team, comprehensive win over our rivals.

 

[Perth Red]

2 from 2 formWA mens but NT played tough and gave us a good game

Whatever investment the NRL is making in SA is dismal. Instead of growing the game it's regressing and players have left in droves. Greater Adelaide has a population of 1.3 million and NRL SA struggles to field 4 senior teams for a comp with no reserve comps. It's a disgrace.

Back to the CAS, the WA team defeated Victoria and NT today and will take back the CAS championship from Victoria.

Day 2 WA results

u18’s
WA 22 v NT 0
WA 0 v Vic 28

mens
WA 12 v NT 12
WA 6 v Vic 10

been impressed with NT.

 

[ATOWN2]

Yeah NT has punched above its weight this year in both Mens and Juniors. They should have quite a few players make the CAS squad.

 

[Perth Red]

So this years championship has become somewhat farcical with only three teams in it meaning two games a day for three days against same teams. Maybe it’s time to rethink it a bit. Maybe include a png rep team from the digicell cup and a nz rep team from their comp? Playing short games against same opposition for three days is a bit dumb.

 

[Perth Red]

Looks like our lads have runout of steam on day 3

U18’s
WA 0 v Vic 28
WA 12 v NT 16

well done NT, great result for them.
