Todays Paper Rugby Pull Out

[sandgroperrugby]

The West Australian has a form guide to this years Super 14 today and is worth a read to see where the rest of the teams are situated. There are three articles by Dave Hughes and one by John Welborn.

Dont think so! Most of what is said in the first article i have read on this site already maybe David Hughes is a Member!

Very Positive - Dave Hughes did an interview with Sharpie - the main focus this year is on consistency. Sharpie reckons that this is the first year that there is real competition for spots on the team which is a good thing.

John Welborn took the management angle - i.e. a lot of the bad stuff we have seen from the about Coaches and players will be minimised with the new dedicated Rugby Manager position i.e. Mitch Hardy - he gave Sharpie captaincy ability a big rap as well - which is well justified IMHO.

Good info on how the other teams are shaping up - a lot of new Coaches out there.

That'd be a weekend wrap of sports. 95% gayFL, 2% Rugby, 3 lines of WAFL, tennis, horse racing and...that'd be it.

Last year (and the year before) they had the "Super Rugby" liftout and the Footy liftout ("The Game" I think) and the "Super Soccer" liftout untill Super 14 and A-League and possibly the EPL finished. That was all in the Monday West Australian

Nah, they used to have a Rugby pullout on Mondays the same size as Thursdays. Mainly ads and East Coast reports already quoted on TWF but it was an effort.

Dave Hughes is a B grade rugby writer, he consistently gets players positions wrong

[fulvio sammut]

I don't encourage propaganda rags by spending money on them, but I am curious, was there anything in the liftout about club rugby?
