The article appears very Victoria-based, and not representative of Rovering across Australia.
In May it was proposed that Mafeking Rover Park, Rover Motorsport and Mudbash be merged to Scouting in Victoria. There is a suggestion on Talk:Scouting in Victoria that would be better merged here. I have therefore moved the merge tags to suggest the merge to here, but I suggest that the debate continues at Talk:Scouting in Victoria#Merge of three Rover articles - Mafeking Rover Park, Rover Motorsport and Mudbash. -- Bduke 00:34, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
The council itself is not notable. It should be moved to the Rovers section article because the content is the same for every branch. :: maelgwn :: talk 13:44, 4 June 2007 (UTC) Support

I have completed the merge. The article now needs some examples of BRC activities in States other than Victoria and a tidy up when the other merge proposals are completed. -- Bduke 23:44, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
It is proposed that this article be merged here. Although the article is not a stub, the material needs to be shortened into a tighter form and the article does have cleanup tags on it. The Rovers (Australia) article is not that long and has quite a bit of material on rather specific things. It would balance it out to have a section on the major award of the section. My only doubt is that I believe that the Baden-Powell Award is, or was, an award in Rovers in countries other than Australia (e.g. if memory serves me right, in UK when Rovers was a section), but the article does not mention this. In any event, if this award is used elsewhere it would have different criteria and could be mentioned elsewhere. -- Bduke 23:08, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Support merge.
Oppose merge.
Now the copyvio has been removed the article says what Rovers (Australia) says. I'm closing this discussion and making it a redirect. -- Bduke 07:28, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
Hi. It is awarded in several countries where Rovers still exist. Perhaps having it link just to Australia is a problem, so could this section not be moved to the page on Rover Scouts in general rather than the page just on the Australian section? DiverScout ( talk) 14:34, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
What do the initials "MARB" stand for? This article is supposed to be understandable to folks outside the organisation. I have spelt out RRC and BRC for clarity, but I have no idea what MARB means. -- Bduke ( talk) 22:07, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
The section below was, quite correctly, removed from the general article on Rovers. It should be on this article, but it needs referencing and it needs rewriting:
Removing POV and the obvious, it might read:
