CAS Rugby 2024

[Hercules Von Grimmelshaus]

My Second XV predictions
1st. Cranbrook
2nd. Knox
3rd. Wavereley
4th. Barker
5th. Aloys
6th. Trinity

Barker have a strong 2nd XV this year looking at their trial results and will push into the top 2 I’d say

 

[Cranbrook's Locked Doors]

I'll give it a red hot crack,

16A's
Knox
Cranbrook
Waverley
Barker
Aloys
Trinity

15A's
Same as 16's, with Cranbrook dropping to 4th, and Trinity squeaking into the top 3, Aloys bumping Barker to 6th.

14A's and 13A's remain a slight mystery with little in the way of information but would safely go with Waverley, Trinity and Cranbrook leading the ladder, and Knox dropping due to whispers of little depth. The rest is up in the air.

Cheers,
JM67

16s Waverley will win CAS. Very strong side this year. They beat Kings 53 - 5.

Waverley 9 is Hugo Scheider.
Knox's 3 is Harper Stretchen.

Knox 3 is William Lloyd. Strachan is 1. I believe Hill (Barker) is also playing 1.

Does the CAS team have any chance in beating the strong GPS team.

I believe this cohort defeated GPS in 16’s in 2022. Short memory? Too young to be playing then?

Does the CAS team have any chance in beating the strong GPS team.

Definitely a chance. As a strong supporter of a GPS team, there seems to be a lack of depth in the GPS 1st XV relative to CAS 1st XV's. I hope it's closer than last year.

Keen on hearing about a competitive competition between the two representative groups.

Here we are clashing heads again scrum, this time I will be firing first. The depth in the GPS XV is far greater than the CAS XV, CAS may have the better team on paper with big names from LEAGUE, but maybe just wait till we are a bit further into the season and there may be a few injuries for these young men.

[Walshy81]

Score wasn't a reflection of the game aloys wiped the floor with view.

Well!..., I stand corrected!! Some comparisons can be made with matches against Kinross and Pius over the next 2 rounds.

 

[Walshy81]

Power rankings for the 2024 season. Thoughts?

I like your work!
And probably accurate too.

I somewhat agree with this but i think that inigo McVinnish from cranbrook school should be the starting hooker. He is coming of a well played game against St Pats last week and he played the best out of everyone in the CAS competition.

Cheers,
Jarryd

I believe you may be mistaken. I have reffed Inigo when he was in the younger years however he went to Kings. Has he moved schools?

Dear Mr Sent Her,

You are correct. Inigo did attend kings in his younger year, however, he wanted to pursue his rugby career at a real rugby school like Cranbrook. They offered him a scholarship at TKS but decided to come to Cranbrook as it has a phenomenal rugby program I heard.

Thanks,
Jarryd

16s Waverley will win CAS. Very strong side this year. They beat Kings 53 - 5.

what other teams have they played in trials

 

[OutsideSentHer13]

Heard from a friend that's a Cranbrook Coach, kid called Willoughby Pearson-Cheek is on the rise and a good one to watch out for in the 16C's. Great local bloke known around Bondi. Side note, his brother in law played for the Warratahs for 3 seasons.

Righto mate, you're in Cranbrook year 10- good on ya. Now stop clogging up the forum and go back to your classroom.

Regards,
Arthur
