Does anybody know much about the new National Rugby Union Competition? I believe the competition starts in August and the Central Coast are fielding a team called "Central Coast Rays" out of Bluetongue stadium. Your all probably thinking what i am. August start, National rugby comp, bluetongue stadium, a-league 3 starts in august, mariners home ground, FIELD CONDITION? Does anybody know much about it??

My source tells me that K. Beale has signed for the team!
Anyway, the Central Coast is not a rugby union area. Not enough private schools up here.

Did a quick search and came up with this: Comp goes from August to October, for 8 weeks. I would assume 4 games to be held at Bluetongue.
As for the affect on the ground condition I wouldn't be too worried. I would think they could play a Mariners game, a Union game and a Thugby League every week and the ground would still hold up ...

With only 4 games it's not a huge problem.
The rays won't be too crap, but nothing great.

I agree NS, but this is a step to stop being so big a joke. Then again Australian Rugby is a joke atm.

Both Rugby codes are a joke. There's only one football for me.
