NSW AAGPS 2025

[Joker]

why was afl scrapped

Combination of lack of interest and struggling to find other schools to play.
Quick one, which AAGPS schools offer Australian Rules?

 

[KentwellCup>ShuteShield]

Riverview, Shore, Newington. That it

 

[Elfster]

Riverview, Shore, Newington. That it

One could argue than even three is too many.

 

[twister29]

There

Rugby, Football, Winter tennis, golf and cross country
AFL was scrapped a few years back.

Don't forget rifle shooting - one of the longest standing GPS winter sports

 

[The Ruckman]

Any predictions for 2nds ladder this season?

Don't forget rifle shooting - one of the longest standing GPS winter sports

One of my good mates was Captain of the 1st Rifle team. He shoots competitively today in small bore rifle.
His secret was to grow up on a station near Moree and go pig shooting every week.

Now if feral pig shooting was a AAGPS sport TAS would dominate

 

[The Observer]

Any predictions for 2nds ladder this season?

Scots are always strong in 2nd’s because the Roosters demand that their players play 1’s so a lot of good rugby players are in the 2’s……..

Still going on? They have been strong in recent times. 4 titles since 2016. Nine in all.
Shore still has the second most with 24, daylight and Joeys on 62.

Is Onitoni Large and Ohara still injured? Anyone have return dates? Little birdie Max Laverty has also decided not to play this year due to injury history, few senior players missing for Scots at the moment.

 

[The foghorn]

Any 16a's lineups coming through?

 

[The Chairman]

Shore 4th XV to take on SBHS 1st XV.

That will be a good early test of depth.

 

[Gregs general]

Any team lists for this week

 

[The GroundsKeeper]

Shore 4th XV to take on SBHS 1st XV.

That will be a good early test of depth.

It will be interesting to see whether or not Shore will have the same amount of depth across there opens teams as they did last year.

Shore 4th XV to take on SBHS 1st XV.

That will be a good early test of depth.

Well here's the line-up. Some strong players here. They should realistically be putting 30 plus on them.

2. Elliot Perkins
3. Alfie Sheridan
4. Ollie Gaden
5. Zac Roberts
6. Ben Thomas
7. Tahli Fulton
8. Alex Belli (C)
9. Ben Jones

11. Josh Salis
12. Sam Harris
13. Oscar Finlay
14. Ari Ganassin
15. Jake Wagstaff

Most of those lads were playing 3rds over the last few weeks and last season. They gave Waverley a good pumping in the 3rds so think they will be a handful in the 4ths comp this year, no doubt.
Ollie "Hoggy' Gaden is a deadset psychopath like the legendary Billy Gaden that is his father.

Well that is very talented. Gareth Inches still coaching them as far as I am aware?

Fulton, Kierse, Sheridan, Perkins and Gaden all in the Fourths - Should have a good spine to build off.

 

[Crashy]

solid captain as well. His old man will be pleased.

 

[The Chairman]

Well there is only one way to really test your depth...

Ok everyone.
The AAGPS tipping comp is up again.

I am once more happy to do this job. I have time on my hands as I am now medically retired.
In the past this has been a lot of fun and each year we see winners come from many backgrounds.
Last year it was a schoolboy who won (won't reveal the school)

Question?

Would like to participate this season.
Entries close on WEDNESDAY before round 1.
Just reply with an indication of wanting to join.

There are limited places again this.
In 2025 I am though deleting tippers who miss three rounds in a row.
When this happens I will invite those who missed out to join and they will start with the points of the deleted tipper.

A reminder on how this works...

TIPPING COMPETITION. How does this work?

For those new here I hope this explains this.

With only three games each week I devised a system where players can score more
This is achieved by using margins.
Various margins are worth points.

Points break down.

Lose- 0

Win- 3 points if your margin is BELOW +5 of the final score

Win- 5 points if your margin is ABOVE and WITHIN the +5

Win- 10 points you pick the margin exactly

DRAW- 20 points If you select a draw

Here is this in action.

Game is Scots College v Sydney Boys High

Final result

Scots 10 High 32

Winning margin +22

The following members chose the following. Here is how they scored

Headbutt- chose Scots +25 (0 points)

Guppy- chose High +10 (3 points, a win but below the margin)

Muppet- chose High +26 (5 points, win within +5 of the margin)

Fluke- chose High +22 (10 points, win with the exact margin)

Maximum you can score in one week is 30 points. These margins come in handy as you can run down leaders or make a break. Plus is you fail to get your tips in you are given by default the away teams with no margin.

Tips are taken by PUBLISHING them here with a post. I will endeavor to have them added by 3:15pm on Saturday.

NO TIPS are accepted after this time.

You may wish to message me as well.

TIPPING comp entries will close this WEDNESDAY 14 May @5pm .
