"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
The Busselton 10s fizzled even further with 2 afternoon games being cancelled. 3 Collie players were red carded after a brawl in their game against Dunsborough, appearing to leave them unable to field a team in their next game.

Are you a board member?
If you are you are a disgrace!
Just because you had airtime in Alan jones doesn’t give you any privilege to making comment on a blog site as an entitled entity.
I would have thought a board member that resides over the fall of the WF would have more grace and avoid commentary like this?
When the WF was in trouble a few years ago. Did you blog and engage with the masses about how u selected Michael foley as coach and then renewed his contract
I remember reading posts a couple years again where u were hated on TWF and and community rugby/ WF rugby despised you.
You and the board let the WF die over a number of years
What’s your thoughts now?
Thats a troll post if ive ever seen one
Tom Price is a bit further than sevenmile!
Are the moderators giving away identities/locations again?
Oooh Peter Rabbit, take a bex mate.
Clearly you want to have a go at me personally and insult me as much as you can.
Lets' share some details - yes I am an elected board member, yes, I am an elected President of RugbyWA - what are you? What is your role?
I am a disgrace - happy to wear that moniker - I think it's more preferable than being a COWARD - Peter COWARD Rabbit - has a nice ring to it.
I guess you must be illiterate as well and cannot read. I posted the following question on Twitter: [B]I have no doubt @AlanJones would be asking serious questions of @RugbyAU. How do they explain disastrous crowd numbers in Melbourne and Sydney for the start of a new rugby super Rugby competition.
[B]O.k. Mr. Coward - Where does that fall into the definition of OPINION?
Where have I posted in that question that I am an entitled entity??? mate - what are you on?? I must have some. Please show me on that Twitter post that I have said I represent a body, board or WF? I must have missed something - C'mon Coward where in that post do I say I am representing RugbyWA?
I guess the fact that my time on Alan Jones now makes me persona non grata in your miniscule mind? Thankfully I actually received more plaudits on behalf of RugbyWA than the one and only negative assertion you have printed. What have you done for Rugby in WA?
Sorry Mate. Michael Foley was contracted waaaay before my time on the board. Actually he was dumped during my first stint on the board!!!
I don't believe giving my time free of charge for the good of rugby in WA is a fashion or popularity contest. I have dozens of enemies and people far less Cowardly than you who wouldn't piss on me if I was on fire.
I am extremely pleased with a number of things I have been involved with on the board. However, as I have said numerous times - Mr. Feral Animal - March 28th is the AGM - I am up for re-election - if you have the numbers - DUMP Me and you'll never have to worry about me ever again.
As I have said to previous Cowards - PM me your details, and if you truly want to learn then I shall shout you a pint or two and cover your issues.
Hansie has given us his credentials over the time! He has even offered you the opportunity to meet him at a neddies game and discuss your questions and disgruntled comments about how things are run! Why not take him up on this offer prove you are more than just a bitter mouth piece! I don’t know Hansie personally but I have seen him he has the courage to let people know who he is and has offered others to express their opinions direct to him whether they agree with his line of thinking or not. I think that’s fair and reasonable.
Looks like the Swan River 10s is organised better than RugbyWA's own Busselton tournament: http://nedlandsrugby.com.au/swanriver10s/
Was a winner ever announced for that by the way?
This will be our first look at the new Coastal Cavaliers team tomorrow. Also I don't know if it's an ominous sign of the strength of the Wanneroo women's team that they can field a team despite having 8 players in the Western Force squad (who I understand are barred from competing in these tournaments).
At least the draw for Jetty was available waaaaaay earlier than that for Swan River.
See youse all down there!
In defence of RugbyWA, they have about 4 staff and they have all been co-opted to work on the Western Force project in addition to their normal jobs. They are working their socks off, believe me, but they are not miracle workers.
