Our Rugby Guys

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

Can anyone tell me, concerning our two new Rugby recruits, what positions they'll play in for us? all ive heard is that they play 'breakaway' and as a Rugby-impared person, i wouldn't have the slightest clue what that is. Also, does anyone know their stats? as in height, weight, etc?

JARROD SAFFY

Position: Number 8

Height: 190 cm

Weight: 100 kg

Date & Place of Birth: 24 October 1984, South Africa

Club: Sydney University

State: NSW

IRB Sevens Tournaments: 2003 - Dubai

Representative Honours: 2001 NSW and Australian Schoolboys, 2002 NSW Schoolboys, 2003 NSW U19s, 2003 Australian Sevens


don't know about McGann

Saffy placks lock, the same as in a league scrum, though his size in league probably sees him more suited to playing 2nd row or prop.

McGann on the other hand plays flanker and is looking like a replacement for scott sattler at lock. he has ball playing skills and is solid.

Flankers hang on the side of the scrum to steer and drive in union, also waiting to take any breaks on there side , eg breakaway, quck mobile easil7y broken from scrum

it's not a good omen but saffy is very similar in size to patto.

You have it all correct except for position. Saffy was the St Joesphs 5/8th a couple of season back, he will be a back up marshall and renyolds

 

[jy]

if that's the case he is the biggest five eighth ive ever heard of!

no - he is definitely a Number 8. Will play in the second row IMO.

Make your mind up mate :lol: :lol: :lol: what will he play ?????

 

[jy]

second row

 

[eastsrule]

Tim McGann Lock.

 

[Morro]

i think you will find that Todd Sly played 5/8 when Saffy was playing in the forwards at joeys

ahh toddy .. the boy who can't pass left handed ...

ahh toddy .. the boy who can't pass left handed ...

Who`s Todd Sly when he`s not at home???Where is he currently playing???

 

[smoke more pot]

my mail is ol' todd is a syd uni playing grade, might of even played a couple of first grade games this season, pretty overated 5/8 .. had the luxury of some quick outside backs & lighting full back at joeys ..

put it this way, i'd rather we develop someone like mcdonnell (i know he plays fullback) in flegg or caldwell, haldwell?! at balmain ..

 

[tiger_nick]

I'm mates with some guys that went to Waverly and were in Tim's year. They rate him very highly!

 

[zack del la rocha]

cant wait to see what these guys are made of when they put on the tigers jumper. wouldnt they start getting a run in the trials at 12 and 13 ?

 

[Magpie Nick]

Saffy is 190c, and 100kg. I think if he is that big he would play Prop.

 

[Davester]

They heading into premier league or first grade?

 

[Magpie Nick]

They would have to start in Premier League like Rob Simpkins did.

 

[Mad Tiger]

Easts playing at the moment on Channel 2, not sure if Tim is playing but im waiting to see.....

 

[Magpie Nick]

McGann played, didn't do much from what I saw, would be Backrower.
