once upon a time a visit to TWF left one with an over supply of juicy rumours to dine out on for a week or so, or at least to engage in faux outrage and sanctimonious piety over.
This year, nada, nix, rien, nothing. The doors have been closed, the dirty linen hung inside, the Quislings shot, and the disseminators of gossip lamentably missing in action.
However, by means of highly skilled forensic inquiry, and the application of a cauliflowered ear to each available keyhole, I've managed to glean a few titillating snippets to share with you.
Which club has had it's Junior funds inexplicably reduced to the tune of over $70,000 and has preferred to keep the mystery in house and wear the loss rather than (apparently) risk damage to its reputation?
What happened at last week's Cockburn (Southern Lions) Sevens that resulted in a team being disqualified from the preliminary final?
Has a certain club, which spent a considerable sum on recruiting last season, and so pissing off the players who didn't get paid as much, now found itself in a position that it, and not Rockingham, is likely to be giving up it's Premier Grade position to Joondalup?
Has a schism occurred between the President of a highly successful club and some of its senior officials, sponsors and long time supporters?
Has a certain club "stolen" two highly rated New Zealand colts, related to the former president of another club, from right under his very embarrassed nose?
Has Rumour Monger died?
I think everyone is too busy trying to get their own club in order.Trying to get guys to just turn up and commit is getting harder and harder and from what I'm hearing that's across the board,
Wests Scarborough 1st Grade juggernaut has played finals rugby each and every year since its inception and continues this remarkable feat yet again this season and unbelievably it's still rolling on and as an added little circle jerk for the masses Wests actually hold the record for the current longest unbroken finals record.
The one some call Rumour Monger has been seen this week in certain hallowed halls of rugby by at least two contributors to this very forum. He appeared very much alive and in good spirit. His hibernation may soon be over, methinks.
Going to be some news to be announced soon that will see 1st grade comp draw needing to be changed

i had heard a rumour that to appease the travel concerns by various clubs - all games will next year be scheduled to play at Nedlands. It is central and all other teams fee's will go to upgrading the facilities to cater for the influx
Chuck Norris has the greatest Poker-Face of all time. He won the 1983 World Series of Poker, despite holding only a Joker, a Get out of Jail Free Monopoly card, a 2 of clubs, 7 of spades and a green #4 card from the game Uno.
Rumor has it that Rumor Monger is not actually Rumor Monger, but some other peddler of gossip ...
Dear Lord, if you give us back Johnny Cash, we'll give you Justin Bieber.
rumors are pointless without context (names/places/teams), apart from those who already know about them.
They were all ready to join their relative's club, the other club got wind of it, contacted their NZ connections, and everything changed!
Needs confirming but have heard Paly has an ex Saracens player on their books. Wests have recruited Counties ITM prop Sione Matangi. Kala have lost a shitload including their entire back row and key backs Tane Puki ( Joondalup?) Preston Elama & Jordan Pereira, but have picked up some big boys from Wests, a giant Tongan lock and former NZ Warriors junior Beau King.
Soaks have been advertising that they need accomodation for new players from Tonga, Argentina & France.
** please note all are unconfirmed rumours
Yep, Pally swapped him for a Welsh International.
