Tradition is not the Worship of Ashes, but the Preservation of the Fire.

Fizza’s Facts and Stats

Did you now… That the club had between 40 and 50 players out injured last weekend and poor Scott Cameron (4th grade coach) had ten new players in his team that weren’t there the week before.
Randwick beat us 7-28 and being held to single points was last done at home on the 19.4.2010. That day was 7-37 and almost exactly 14 years ago.
In my 27th year with the club, I couldn’t find the last time we lost all 4 senior grades to the ‘Wicks. Then I found an old Annual Report which said Roud 17 1991 was the last time, 33 years ago.
Its amazing how many times we have beaten them in ALL four grades.
Our Colts WON all three matches, and have also done that often in the past 20 odd years.
Next weekend brings a huge occasion for Henry Clunies-Ross as he runs on at Chatswood Oval for his 100th 1st grade game and he 124th Club game.
Henry has scored 50 1st grade tries and total of 88 Club tries. He now sits on 415 career points since leaving Trinity Grammar School.
At the moment Jack Matthews has scored 27 points in his 3 First XV games, almost ten a game. This made up of 1 try, 8 goals and 2 pen goals. Should reach his 100 by round 11 at this rate.

That Sam Talakai played his 100th Super Rugby game for Melbourne last week, a real good stat this one. Good stuff Sammy, and you know you have unfinished business at No.2 Oval being on 91 club games and 72 of them at 3 o’clock.
Our club won 7 out 8 games with 5 out of 8 scoring bonus points, we our sixth in the Club Championship. Our 4th grade won its second game of the season and our 3rd grade won their third game. Its been a tough start for these two grades and maybe more wins around the corner.
Our 1st grade lost another close game, and that was our sixth game we have lost by less than 5 points. The games lost are 2 to Manly, 4 to Gordon, 3 to Warringah, 5 to Souths, 2 to Easts and 3 to Eastwood. Could have been amongst top 4 or 5 Clubs on the table. That is a average of 3.2 points a game or that dreaded penalty goal missed.
Our women won again and have 7 victories out of 7 games sitting on 34 points with Manly 2nd on 27 points. Jack Matthews hit the 80’s in the 1st grade game with two 5 pointers at T.G.Millner Field to take him to 81 1st grade points.
Theo Strang scored 2nd grades 50th try this season .
Sam Allsopp scored his 5th try this season in the main game, while Sam Bignold scored 2nds last try of the game on his 50th club game.
Villie Cocker will play his 50th Club game against Western Sydney this weekend at home, well done mate.
Our Colts three teams at the half way mark of the season have 141 tries and Grade have scored 143 tries. I know, I know, grade have an extra grade, but the lower grades have two games each they haven’t played.
Colts leading point scorer is L.Beaumont on 83 points and S.Sharman (no relation to the Sharmanator) reached his 50 season points in 3rds Colts

Did you know,
The Waratahs had there award night last week and Uni performed well on the night.
Mens player of the year was Jake Gordon, Womens player of the year was Piper Duck.
Jake also won the “Back of the year award” and Lachlan Swinton won the “Forward of the year award” and The (Matt Burke trophy) .
Well some things never change and the weather is one of them. We were washed out on the weekend at home with only our 1st XV playing and the other 7 teams postponed.
The 1st grade team had a real battle against the Two Blues on SUFG. They have been a pain in the backside for us since 2020.
We have lost 4 in a row to the old Parramatta club, with three of those losts being at home. Once again another less then 5 points lost, now our eighth. Seven of our games this season we have scored 25 points or more, and received another two bonus points to give us 14 bonus points in 11 games. Those two points actually put us in front of the Eastwood on the table. So a bit of good news for the 3 o’clock team lose and go up the table.
We had our 14th player make his debut in 1st grade this season, and it is always good to see an old boy of my school Newington College reach this achievement.
Hugh Bell (hooker) not only made his debut but scored two of four tries. Hugh already has 4 tries in 2nd grade this season, well done Hugh, they make them good at Stanmore.
Because of 7 teams not playing on Saturday, I have included some stats of player games and total point scorers including their Colts points added.

An example of the tough year the club has experience is our 2^nd grade Premiers from last year, of the 23 players involved in that win 12 aren’t playing this season. A break down of names and what their doing this season, is Angus Allen, Brad Amituanai, Sam Bignold, Sione Harriss, Ciaran Loh, all playing 1st XV this year. Left the club, J.Elliott, C.Mar-Lavulo, Hamish Mac-Smith, Tassie Smith, Jack Johnson-Holmes, K.Kino Shito, playing 2^nd XV Sepesi Logi- Tarogi, Sam Cantwell, Michael Baldock. Players injured Conor O’Shea, Sione Taufui, Jacob Ratcliffe, Adian Wearne, Max Von Appen, Will Clements, E.Leota just back 3rds C.Murray 3rds and two players still playing Colts, J.Tuipuloto , E.Moala.

Only six of the above played 2^nd grade verses Souths last Saturday.

Our 1^st grade team broke a 16 year record against Souths. Winning 56-0 was a biggest score to nil, since 2008 which was 40-0 at Forshaw Field. The last six home games for 1sts against Souths we have won 5 and the lost we had was 31-32 in 2020. Congratulations to Todd and his team.

Its always good to hit up 50 points in a game, and Todd Loudon knows about that. You see Todd has a record for most 50 point winning games (5) in a season. Back in 2011 his 1^st grade side beat Penrith 62-7, Norths 57-20, Souths 52-20, Gordon 81-12 and Randwick 65-17. So that can be beaten with 5 games remaining and two 50 pointers in the bank West Harbour 52-33 and Souths 56-0.

Our back row in 1^st grade Sam Allsopp, Jack McCalman an Angus Allen have played all 13 games this year, (except  Jack missed the Round 3 Randwick match), still 38 out of 39 isn’t bad. And in our backs three players have similar stats, Eddie Poolman all13 games and Henry Clunies-Ross (11) and Jack Matthews (12).

Our goal kickers had a pretty accurate day on the weekend with 1^st grade 8 from 8, 2^nd grade 3 from 5, 3^rd grade 7 from 8, Colts 1sts 5 from 7, Colts 2nds 5 from 6 and Colts 3rds 2 from 2, that’s 30 from 36.

 Trivial stat, and finally a couple of stats on our yellow cards this season. Grade has had 26 and Colts 25.

Our Fourth grade after round 6, had one win and were fighting to stay away from bottom of the Competition. Well from last weekend they now are 5^th and could easily be a Semi Finalist at the end of the next two rounds. On Saturday they had six players who had played less then 5 games this season in 4ths, and also two Colts helping them out after the night before. It should be noted that it was Round 16 last game and our 4ths have only played 10 matches.

Yet another player made his 1^st Grade debut (the 19^th) in Liam Grover from Colts 1^st Grade side . Liam has scored 15 tries this season and has some speed in those legs.

Jack McCalman shall play his 100^th 1^st Grade game verses Eastwood at home and his 165^th Club game. Last weekend Jack scored his 80^th career try to bring up his 400^th career points since Colts. He will become Number 36 in our centurion 1st grade games at SUFC.

Jack Matthews should get his 100 1^st grade points this weekend as he sits on 99 at the moment. When James Kane turned up a couple on months ago, Jack was on 83 and we were playing Warringah at Rat Park. I am glad Jack has patience.

A few years back I started a new stat call “Tri Tries”. Players for Uni who have score 3 or more tries in a 1^st Grade game or for a Rep side. It started back in 1882 and two weeks back Sam Allsopp scored 3 tries vs West Harbour at home. He became the 195^th player to make this list. He joins Clem Halaholo who scored 3 against Warringah in round 5.

Yet again another player made his 1^st grade debut vs Easts,  Harry Ascheri who is in his second season with us. And three other players played their first game with the club in round 17, they are Danial Troup, Oakar Crooks and Bibal Aldel Wahab, welcome to Uni footy. While Sione Harriss played his 22^nd game in round 17.

Since the 2000 season, we have played Easts 50 times in home and away, and have lost only on 12 occasions.

And finally congratulations to Easts Rugby Club on winning the Club Champonship last won in 1971 shared with Gordon, 53 years ago. Easts were also Minor Premiers in six out of 7 grades (all of the above done with a week to go). The grade that stopped 7 out 7 was Syd Uni Colts 2^nd grade, who were Minor Premiers.

Uni already have three Colts team and 2^nd grade  in the Semis with a chance of 3^rd and 4^th grade joining them this Saturday.

That at the end of Round 5, the 4^th May from First grade to 4^th grade we had won just 5 games from 20 starts and not looking very good. Well last Saturday we won all Senior grade, Colts and Women matches verses the “Woods”. Of those games we scored bonus points in each grade. We have Semi Finalist in 2^nd and 4^th grade, Colts 1, Colts 2 and Colts 3 as well as our two undefeated Womens teams. The good part was I found a new record verses Eastwood by winning all Colts and Grade games back in 2010 Round 18 at T.G.Millner Field 14 seasons ago. But that year we scored 6 bonus points in our seven games, not the whole seven matches.

Our 2^nd, 3^rd and Colts 1^st had the highest bonus points in their respective Comps.

First grade finished 7^th ,Second Grade were 3^rd, third grade were equal sixth and fourth grade were equal fifth and all Colts teams finish second.

We were only 58 points out of being 4^th in the Club Championship, not bad after my first paragraph start we had. And our Colts ended up second in their Club Championship on 820 only 2 points behind Easts on 822.

Out 1^st grade Colts had 7 games where they scored 50 or more points and a further two where they scored over 100 points.

Liam Grover was 2^nd in most tries in any Competiton on 18 tries.
