No, was the Wairarapa.
red star?
When a thread like this re-appears and I read some of the comments I wonder where some people have been for the last decade or so. Regular readers of this site will know that for years I have said
10 clubs in premier grade was too many. It should eight.
That they should never have allowed another northern suburbs club to enter as it would damage Wanneroo and P-B and was unlikely to be successful unless a wealthy benefactor could be found.
That Rockingham needed help to cement rugby in the south instead of willy nilly expansion with Mandurah and the like.
That the number of western suburb sides should be reduced (that was helped in some way by Wests move - the best thing they ever did.
And what do I read now - people advocating all of the above. Everyone of course except the decision makers!
I could go on but for now I rest my case.
Yesterday at Tompkins Park when Wests 1st grade were running out onto the field one of the Paly supporters delibrately lifted the spectator rope up and purposely tripped up a Wests player who sustained a serious knee injury.
This is all second hand so can we get a report from a Paly person who witnessed this extreme display of sportsmanship,cmo'n Fulvio what's the good oil and no fairy stories.
Speaking of fairy stories I hope the Paly tooth fairy has good comprehensive medical cover because the cheap shot merchant muppet who knocked out Wests stalwart Joji's teeth will be getting the dental bill.
I have no idea of what you're talking about.
Plenty of Paly lads are on this site,somebody must have seen something and you can't all be using Fulvio's version of Sergeant Schultzes[Hogans Heroes] I not see nothing defence. Anyway Donny was made aware of it and was bloody embarassed about it as a good solid rugby man would be.
Another example of how the actions of one or two people can bring the reputation of the whole club into disrepute,actually I can relate to that last sentence a bit more than most.
That's as may be.
I repeat I did not see any incident, and I left for home immediately after the last game to watch the election results on TV.
I'm sorry if Joji got hurt. I know him reasonably well. He was ok after the last men's game when I last saw him.
I'm also sorry that one of your players was hurt.
Beyond that you'll have to ask an eye witness.
Apparently the national state schoolboys is on this week and I can't find any links for results.Anyone heard how WA are going,someone at HQ needs to sort their shit out,an update with a match report on the games posted on the RWA website would be nice.
Westie, as to point 1. after asking around and getting the same response from several people, it may have been a game day official that was in control of the rope that has cause the injury at that point of time, a sad outcome for that player and the club.
Point 2, the injury to Joji, in the players words, it was not deliberate, it was part of what he was doing as part of the game, and it was a back,
Westie little tip bit for you, what do you know about a club that has had 30 plus players on one team sheet and entered in to system in one game, to register and qualify, sorry not just one game 3 games in a row that i have heard of? oh and and colts team sheet as well.
Point 1- only repeating what I was told,Wests people seem to think it was delibrate so next time I see the reserve grade ref I will ask her and if I'm wrong I will apologise.
Point 2 - We'll see what happens at the judiciary but talked to Joji on Sunday and he had another version and so did the video footage.
It's not my intention to bag out Paly because I think they are an awesome club loaded up with bloody good guy's with probably the best atmosphere out of any club in Perth.
Don't know about that colts team sheet but if they have 30 odd players available to them they are either very lucky or up to a bit of no good although and I could be wrong but isn't colts unlimited substitutions.

Time to run the ruler through finals contenders
Wests-will win minor premiership with easy run home
Wests cream puff front row and perennial achilles heel will yet again rear it's head and will again choke on the big stage.Biggest headache will be whether Pugs uses his finals bonus to buy yet another house or get a much needed hair transplant.Fully expect them to get up to a bit of no good yet again.Heard Wykesy is back.Will be hoping that half the team doesn't get rubbed out due to excessive over load wood splinter on bum syndrome.
Neddies- Have struck top form at the business end and are hot favourites to win the flag.Have struggled recently due to 380 players out with injury and will be sweating on the availability of Davis Tavita who hasn't played the required 6 comp matches but hey it's all about showcasing the best talent available and we can let minor things like comp rules slide right.Also expecting Bally to finally find the spell check button on his keyboard.
Paly-Will get done by Neddies come semi final time and won't be allowed to have any spectators holding down the ropes at the Foreshore.Fulvio in his excitement will put a large amount of money on the bar for an early mad Monday due to him being a recent addition to one of the Forbes World's top ten rich list.Expect Steve Mafi to fly back in for the weekend when he hears about MAD MONDAY festivities.
Cott-Will pick up 10 comp points in the last two weeks to round out the four.Will play Wests at the Boar's Nest come semi's time and will get rolled.Will attempt to try and get 2 front rowers dispensation who have just arrived in town.With Force annointed coaching staff RWA won't want to be seen as showing favourtism so will be unsucessful.Can play their halfback as loosehead prop as an option.Supporters will be hoping that Wests can get their shit together this time and have more than 2 bar staff on this year although most Cott supporters just bring their own bottles of Chardonnay along anyway.It's actually no fun any more stirring Cott up without Chook not being there.
I miss Chook.
See you at the Wests - Pally grand final Rangi.
Have you spoken to Tyler yet?
Word is she'll be refereeing the GF.
I don't have a lot of money, but. Forbes stuffed it up. Maybe it's because I voted Labor.
Anyway, can you lend me one of your gorillas from yesterday's winnings ?
If so I'll put that on the bar.
