Help - I'm moving to Newcastle in NSW and don't have a clue.

Hey everyone.

Just found this forum after a google searh for international forums and hope someone can give ma a bit of help.  I played National league rugby in Scotland (National 1 level = Div 4) and North West 1 in England and am moving out to NSW next week to live and work in the Newcastle area.  I've had a look at the Newcastle and Hunter valley RU website and there are loads of teams and loads of grades.  Does anyone kjnow how the various levels compare to the UK league structure?  I don't know if I should be aiming at Premier sides or A/B grade  .  Help.

Can't help with the problem, but just wanted to say "welcome to the site" and good luck with the move! I'd love to move to Oz when I'm done in the Middle East.

As above - not a clue about Australian leagues, but you are very welcome to the IRF!
There was an Australian poster a couple of months ago... an active ref and former good player actually... I hope he will pop back up!
