Apologies to Rockingham and Hohepa. Rockingham were represented. Associates was the other club that didn't attend.
Why didn't someone in the know correct me earlier?
Apparently local rugby identity ,the refrigerator from Rocky stirred things right up
Oh, I see wholetruth did....
Another trophy for the Nedlands cabinet. Ho hum....
C'mon you other clubs, this is getting boring winning every trophy going around.
Why doesn't rugby wa organise a Neddies vs Soaks grand final in april and give us all a year off?
Neddies dominance is getting embarrassing and by the looks of the masses of new players at pre season the juggernaut is going to keep rolling on
Don't quit your day job. You're making a right hash of the comedy.

A 30min TV feature on the Margaret River 7s tournament will be broadcast on Foxtel channel 183 Monday 4th March from 7pm (WST) for anyone who's interested.
This great concept was supported and made possible by the great Community Rugby team at RWA.
The feature has been filmed and produced by Local Media SC.
We hope that more new and innovation concepts will be developed over the year to further promote and enhance the community game with several ideas already in the mix.
We expect further details on Monday's broadcast (media release ect) will be forwarded by RWA this week.

A couple of years does not apply in Joondalup's case, this is from their website, Rugby WA would have asked them to remove it if it weren't so. My strategically placed sources have confirmed 2014 is all systems go Brothers.
We seem to have strayed off the original thread here but.

RugbyWA HAS has told them to remove it.
They have also got to find 50 new players according to RugbyWA chairman David Redpath.
Let's get real here shall we.
I know a few 'brothers's & they have all pretty much said the same thing - they'll be in the prems for 2014. As for them having to get 50 new players, it would be fairly easy for them to get 50 additional players on the books. However what they won't be able to do is get 50 players that are good enough to field competitive teams in grades 1, 2 & 3. I don't have a problem with the JB joining the top division next year, but their promotion needs to be done in an intelligent manner that is good for local rugby. Nobody wants to see 80 point shellackings. The smart thing is for RWA to allow JB to field teams in grades 1 & 3 or 1 & 2 as opposed to all 3 grades at least for the first 2/3 years. Dictating that they magically produce 50 players of suitable calibre is whack. .
For those who have a hard-on or a softy for Joondalup......Some starting points already in existence

Those posts have nothing to do with Eatin' or Drinkin'
C'mon the
Sorry if you feel it was off topic, they're obviously being naughty little brothers then aren't they.
Good to see a Wanneroo member supporting the Brothers. Bit of a lone voice there I would imagine.
However, where are Joondalup going to get 50 players from or even a team of Premier Grade and Reserve Grade calibre. Don't say locally because they have been told not to include any players they MIGHT be able to get from Perth clubs. Current Premier clubs find it difficult to attract more than a handful of players each season even with the money some of them have available. If Joondalup think they have the dosh to bring a team in then perhaps they should look at their own history and the history of other clubs. When they started Joondalup brought in a heap of Kiwis for money and guess what. They lasted about one season. Took the Money and ran. From memory ARKS brought in about 30 when they went back into Premier Grade some years back and look what happened there. Rocky did the same when they took Wanneroo's place and bought an entire (almost) NZ First Grade, Spent a lot of money, had a very good year but it almost sent the club down the gurgler I heard and and then they all buggered off.
Need I say more.
Oh. And wouldn't it be good if JB's could actually win their own competition. ZED, you would know better than most how long it took Wanneroo to finally get back after being a one man show in the old Districts comp year after year.
PS.
Should we start an new thread with this

Any truth to the rumour that there was a huge brawl in one of the games?
If so, wonder if it will be featured on the Foxtel footage.
Any details anyone who was there?
