Ron Massey Cup/Sydney Shield 2016

[Tigers1986]

Inno Inosesio is back with Western Suburbs, and Dayne Craig has left the Newcastle Thunder and is back in Oz, you'd imagine straight back to Wests as well. Jake Mullaney left Bradford as well, might be a good pickup for them at 5/8 with Gallant at the back.

According to LU's twitter feed the draw should be out for NSWRL competitions mid-December which will be fantastic to see. Hopefully the RMC/SS draws have some protection to factor in the inevitable postponements due to weather.

East Campbelltown will attempt to establish themselves as serious contenders for the Sydney Shield in 2016 after finishing 7th of 13 teams in 2015 by the return of past players Wayde Dunley and Sama Savao (Wests), Michael Stevens (Wenty) and Sam Hoare who had a year out of the game in 2015.

Draw allegedly coming out on Monday for NSW Cup, RM Cup and Syd Shield

 

[Tigers1986]

Monday? Wow, that'll be something considering the NSWRL's attitude to RMC/Shield draws in the past. Shouldn't be too many surprises.

Hopefully the NSW Cup repeats its country round from last year, I thoroughly enjoyed the Wests/Illawarra clash in Goulburn.

Wayne Lambkin has joined Cabra as coaching co-ordinator while Eddie Flahey has returned to replace Jason Williams as RMC coach. Flahey has had stints with his junor club Mounties in recent years and was a member of Mounties last senior title prior to 2015 when he played in the 1987 A Grade premiership.

Paul Fletcher to coach Guildford RMC this season

That could be very positive for Guildford if he calls on some the guys he has coached at Balmain.

Apparently former Windsor Coach Brad Prior is now at Hills District Bulls

 

[Tigers1986]

Fletch coaching Guildford will make the encounters with Western Suburbs very tantalising.

Adrian Davis is with Asquith, after starring for Windsor in Rmc last season. A good pick up for them after losing a few of last seasons grand final side.
