QLD GPS 2024

Was flicking through the GT vs Anglican Church game, and just want to make this comment. My gawd, Oliver Nasser is a truck seed, 2 tries and multiple line breaks. Quick question for you.

Would you rather have Oliver Nasser 8 run at you, or Howarth crash ball you?
Let me know.

Cmon TGS fire up!
There still seems to be a whole lot of passion there for TGS after a round 1 loss.

Sorry to break it to you mate your Toowoomba side are pretenders 0-2 now and not looking good
I wouldn’t say pretenders, yet the perm is most likely out of site. Have you heard the expression “You can lead the horse to the river but you can’t make it drink”. I can g the boys up as much as I want, but at the end of the day they just have to execute. REBUILD FOR NEXT YEAR.

Losing to a BSHS side who are very good this year but a average IGS side is not looking good

King of the hill round this weekend who's pumped and what are predictions
Grammar do not possess much size or aggression within their pack, however with the loss of Oliver Nasser for GT players like Nate Wines and Archie Illot will have to step up big time in the back row. I would suggest that Nate will move to number 8 this weekend. He is a very capable replacement having played all over the back row in his time at Terrace. He is a dominant ball runner and aggressive defender who really stunted ACGS's go forward last Saturday. The indigenous schoolboy was the real difference in Terrace's surprise victory as he displayed great intent all across the pitch for the full 70 minutes.

Northgate is a tough place to play and the GT boys will have to be on their 'A-game' if they want to head into the bye round (Round 4) with a 2-1 record through the first three competition games. If they are able to do so, they can rest up some key players with niggles and have a strong 2 week preparation period ahead of the battle of the colours on August the 10th.

I see a close-ish battle until the final 15 minutes where GT will score some runaway tries through their star studded outside backs (Saia Poese, Sam Russell, George Joseph).
Give me GT 34 - BGS 17

MOTM: Nate Wines

Brisbane Grammar aren’t that soft grammar team anymore. Their coming for a win. But ultimately GT will take it home.

Didn't see an appearance from Lucas Clifford (pitbull) on the weekend when I attended the BBC 1XV.
Clearly all that log-carrying I see on Instagram isn't paying off.
Yes I have to say I was quite disappointed to see that BBC did not use him this weekend I really feel as though he could have been the X-factor for the college but ultimately State High too strong for the college

Hey all, Here are my Tips for this round. Please let me know your thoughts

GT vs BGS - Brisbane Grammar side consisting of shifty backs such as 'reader' will ask plenty of questions however the BGS forwards aren't looking strong. After an impressive performance from the GT forwards, with much improved lineouts and scrum work, as well as shifty backs moves I cal lGt taking this one.

IGS vs BBC - Bit of an underdog pick here, but I'm calling IGS to win a close one. With increased confidence from last weeks result against the heavily favourited TGS, and a polished team chemistry, IGS will sneak over BBC after a loss against Favourites BSHS. BBC must improve their scrum in the late game if they want a chance, perhaps using substitute Lucas Clifford AKA THE PITBULL will assist.

TGS vs TSS - After a tough loss at ross, a still strong TSS side will look to bounce back with a strong home side. With the loss for TGS against IGS and a long drive ahead of them, I can't see TGS pulling through on this one.

ACGS vs NC - A pretty obvious one after the absolute statement made by NC last round. With the absolute statement made by NC last round against top 5 competitors TSS, as well as the scrappy loss against a strong GT last round I cannot see Churchie competing in this one, especially without star fullback Treyvon
