    Great news Nick. What were the grants for, specifically? How will they help the club?

    $5k was "Player registration and equipment subsidy" - i.e. helping pay for the registration costs. Usually a grade would cost about $4K to cover registration, RA fee, insurance. This year everything is gone except the insurance which has been pro-rated from $2150 down to $1900 🙄 generous AON, you crunts.

    As we plan to field 2 Grades this year, and Subbies have pretty much waived everything from their side, it'll be closer to $4K total. So we're covered! We've dropped rego from $150 to $100 as a result of the shortened season - $50 of our rego is kit costs so that is pretty much fixed.

    $2k was "Coaching and Admin" - we have a policy of paying for any of our members to attend coaching, refereeing, or other courses that directly assist the club, plus printing and other costs in running the club like marketing, consumables, etc.

    New kit has arrived as well - our jerseys are going back to a design style we started with in 2007.

      I've done them a mischief there: its $1680 per grade. So that helps

            NSW Subbies will start 18th July for Divs 2-5 and 25th July Division 1.

            Hopefully everything keeps on a downward trajectory for the COVID thing and we can just get on with it.

                      @Bovidae i hate those sort of articles

                      The whole thing reads like "it's Cheika's fault. And the players. But not mine, i knew what the issues were" so that his next job interview is easier

                        There is enough blame to go around but even if some of what O'Connor says is true it did sound like a dysfunctional squad.

                                I don't mind the article - it's a nice counterpoint to Cheika's recent comments.

                                Cheika has come out recently and basically tried to spin it by placing the blame of his failings at the administration, Super Rugby quality in Aus and bringing in Scott Johnson.

                                It's refreshing to see someone call out Cheika's approach.

                                      I'd forgotten about Godwin. Handy player from memory. Lance is a journeyman but the kind of squaddie anyone would find useful.

                                        It’s amazing what they can do to colourise old historic black and white photos these days.

                                          @Bovidae i hate those sort of articles

                                          The whole thing reads like "it's Cheika's fault. And the players. But not mine, i knew what the issues were" so that his next job interview is easier

                                          Yes.

                                          But how much of it do you believe?

                                          I'm picking 90-odd%
