Brumbies allocates lockers and WA boy owns one of them

[pieter blackie]

Nick Jooste gets his locker at the Brumbies one more WA junior lost to another franchise Who is to blame for this .............. so sick and tired of this I have been witness of this bullshit for 10 years now and it aint getting better in WA

Maybe no-one is to blame.
Maybe a decision was made (wrongly in my opinion, but I don't mind tutelage under Larkham - short term) by him and his parents (or just manager) in a short term push at top grade.
Maybe impatience is to blame.

But pointing fingers and making emotive accusations is way more fun. Continue.

Not just you Pieter, but each time something like this comes up the question seems to be asked like the quiz master knows the answer before asking the question. Why not just help us not so close to the pulse know the answer??

Q. Who is to blame

A. (well almost the answer) I know what I'm talking about.

We don't, so help us to understand

I think its a plus that our jnr's can get gigs over in the eastern states, shows that the talent is there and that their is a pathway to a professional career in rugby.

Jooste can study a bit under larkham and come back a polished diamond. No one ever stays in the ACT. Even the garbologists live in Queanbeyan

Isn't it great that we are getting WA youngsters into the top flight? The involvement of the force has improved the skills and visibility of West Australian rugby players.

Was the mandate of the force to get:

More west Australians playing professional rugby?

OR

More west Australians playing professional rugby in WA?

two questions, which to be honest, they are answering both of. C'mon! Learning under bernie!? can't ever pass that up!

I'd take learning from under one of the best 10's Australia has ever produced over learning under Michael Foley.

Spot on! WA seeing the production line of young talent coming through, being snapped up everywhere in Australia.
Figured about 2-3 years ago that within a decade that WA will be filling the market with highly talented, highly professional rugby players. Not only in Australia but on a world market - due to the diversity of the rugby community that we have here.
Although always disappointing not to incorporate every talented rugby player within the WA system, such is the way of every profession as players, juniors and coaches, this is showing that the systems are working.

I had to delete some of my post but this is a summary of it

The organisation
RUGBYWA board President
the clubs presidents

Too many hidden agendas has clouded there judgement...............

I have been told RugbyWA has no money and in saying that I mean no money, less than what we started off before 2006
with various long term rugby employees have had enough and are looking to get out Most of the current younger staff are classified as lazy.....
