    Awesome. That’s a bloody strong team. Most complaints out of the east coast that it is unfair.

    Yes it surely is a strong team and they will say that it is a Super Rugby side, but from my count we have 15 men who have developed their rugby here! Cant wait for the game and so good to see big dog's name on the sheet

    If NSW is struggling with depth maybe they should axe another NSW team... that solves everything right?

    Tough break for Clay, he's been playing like his bum's on fire

    I can understand Chance and James being picked in front of him, but tough break nonetheless.

    Dont joke....

    SYDNEY TEAMS ON NRC CHOPPING BLOCK
    The struggles of the NSW teams in the NRC has prompted NSW Rugby to begin seriously contemplating ramping up involvement and cutting back to two teams for 2018, we understand.

    Owned and run by clubs, NSW started with four teams in NRC’s first year but the Sydney Stars were dropped after a single season. There are now three teams — the Rays, the Greater Sydney Rams and the NSW Country Eagles — but the connections and alliances to grade clubs have chopped and changed with each season, for owners and particularly for players.

    The Reds squad is divided up and around 50% of both squads are uncontracted club players.

    NSW are contemplating the same split: NSW Country and a Sydney team. But with keeping a presence in western Sydney important — physically and symbolically — what look the Sydney team takes could be politically tricky.

    Watch this space.

    Absolute madness

    On one hand the above and on the other hand you hear argumments from NSWelshman that rugby should be like AFL (Based from the VFL) does nobody from Shute partake or like the Tahs do they just highly over rate themselves
