So using that logic the CAS 1sts XV should be either all Waverly or all Barker
Baxter
Peter Burge (5)
No, since volleyball seems a lot less competitive.
WTF?

Agreed Axe. CAS 2 v CCC was OK, but the current game is shite. Yes it was only $4 to view today but it should be better than this.

Seems to be sorted now......i paid for the season long membership. $80 or something.............pretty good value for all the footy we get to watch.
PS WTF......................did you see who is playing number 5 for Sydney?

34-12 (something like that). Slack-Smith 2 tries
ZHC

Interesting, that no one has commented on the NSW squads.

I have two initial comments:
- Halaholo being select at 6 is his future position moving forward. A tad short of an international lock IMHO. He will kill it as a blindside breakaway.
- Knox's over representation. As Fitzy says, incoming ;-)

Over representation.........................there's 6 Knox boys been picked out of 84 spots available. I think thats probably fair enough, and each boy selected did well on Friday.
As for the young fella being picked at 6, IMHO he's done very well to make Gen Blue 1. His big mate Fritz has had much better running games than him, and his work over the ball is sub par. Your already suggesting he's a future international. So if you want to bag another school for getting too many selections ZHC....................theres one for Waverley right there.

Axe and ZHC, Here's are some thoughts.
Since the beginning of time some team selections have been and will remain political going forward.
Everyone will probably have a view on some positions. Clearly it has nothing to do with the boys, it's the selectors who make these calls. Clearly they got the CAS front row wrong v GPS, so what did they do for the next game, dropped the hooker, joke.
That's just 1 example there are many others covering many schools.
My biggest issue is with the timing of these rep events. I noticed on Thursday some notable injuries that will/may stop those boys playing out the rest of the school rugby comp. A comp that I would think is the priority for the vast majority of boys, with rep selections being nice but not as important as winning the school comp given all the preseason training and development through all the age groups.
Not that long ago these rep games were played after the school season, thereby not affecting the MOST important comp, that way everyone enjoyed the best of both worlds, no longer. That process also allowed every boy the chance to show his ability against his school opposites. No longer. This logic should also apply for other states, so they are all in step.
I guess all that should be ignored, because it's logical.
What a real shame.
