CAS Rugby 2023

In my expertise opinion, I am predicting this team doesn't have the grit to beat Knox or Aloys as those two have been partaking in both mental and physical pre-season.

Ahhh, the schoolboys have hit the forum...

Barker to play St Joseph's nudgee in a rematch at barker on 20th of may

No news about the Barker/Knox trial today. Even if it was probably just a energetic training run

No news about the Barker/Knox trial today. Even if it was probably just a energetic training run

Trial was competive and Barker just had the edge but it’s a trial so who knows. Couple of Year 10’s in the Barker team at 10 and 8 who both showed some good touch’s and didn’t look out of place. Knox has a couple of new boys by the look of it at fullback and reserve prop

Knox looked like they were either resting or had a few injured boys on the sideline

Very much a Knox thing to have injured players before the season even starts…

For me Barker looked to have the edge in the backs but Knox forwards looked a bit stronger. But pretty scrappy and lots of situational resets so who knows. The Barker 12 and 15 looked v strong and the Knox back row seemed to be enjoying themselves.

Does anyone know if there were any differences in the teams that played yesterday to the predicted lineups?

Barker are not last years team. Oakhill are a unknown. any insight on this game.

Given Oakhill's performance across the board against Barker at roughly this time last year, I think you could easily say Oakhill will be level pegging - if not warm favourites.

Oakhill won every grade from 2nds to 15C - the only loss was firsts by 9 points.

Barker showed lots of strong signs in the last 2 weeks against knox and daramalan and with a few players returning this week they should be up to it but oakhill will be very strong. Should be a tight game and could go eitherway

 

[JackJill]

Anyone know anything about Trinity this season? Judging off their rep players last year they look like a good side on paper, may surprise a few people. Any predicted lineups?

 

[Thetynesideknight]

Anyone know an aloys lineup? hopefully a good year for the blue and gold!

 

[schoolboyfooty]

Ones to watch would be Darcy Standfield and Caleb Sincliar who will be leading the 1st around the park.

Interesting to hear about. I too have heard big things about the half pairing of these two.
I also can't wait to see what Ruben Stock has to showcase. After hearing about him being the 2nd best wrestler in South Africa last year would be good to see his jackling abilities.

 

[CAS Fanatic]

Any fixtures for the upcoming weekend?

A little change up would be having Ruben Stock at #8 and then move Noah Tofaeno to 2nd row.
I think having Turinui and Fidel on the wing is a good idea.

I have heard news Waverley is about to bring in a shifty 10 from NZ named Gus Anderson.
He was a gun upcoming junior but unfortunately had a bad leg injury causing him to miss 1 year and a half of footy.
He has had a major resurgence and caught the eyes of many NRL teams such as the Illawarra steelers but has decided to take his talents to the superior sport union.
I am excited about what he could do for that Waverley team and is a smokey for that gen blue spot.
