[Red Runner]

there's a match thread for this

 

[Major Tom]

Is there?
Not really an issue being here, lineups pop up everywhere.

 

[Red Runner]

yeah, but what I have seen is that then it gets into match results and people get pissed off about spoilers.

Spoilers? My sincerest apologies to everyone if this somehow triggers spoilers to an U19 game down the track.

there's a match thread for this

Seemed to of worked ok last year splitting it from the thread covering the professional teams series….

This thread also included ALL scores in every round for both the age groups.

[Adam84]

Interested to see Wallace Charlie from the Force, a real attacking talent from his days in Queensland Schoolboys

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

I reckon the NSW backrow could give the Force some grief. Their young but all seem like genuine pros in the making. As the game breaks down late Le Maitre will be a problem.

Tahs will need to kick it out when they choose to kick. Don't be giving Charlie open ground to return.

Excited to see how Charlie goes, assume he's likely to be the U20 fullback next season?

Could have been Le Maitre v de Crespigny. Extraordinaire!

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

We'll see how it pans out and if any guys from Super Rugby can filter back who may not be playing in this comp. You also might see a couple of guys from the 18s push for spots like Brial did last season.

He should definitely see some time with the 7s but I bet he can pick up heaps from Beale around the Force pre season.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Can anyone throw out some names of guys to keep an eye on from their respective supported sides?

NSW:
Langi - BIG lump of human. Still perfecting his scrummaging as he got put at Lock quite a bit whilst a School Boy
Brial - Athletic and robust backrower. Probably taller than his brother Joe but similar style of big motor and going through you.
Le Maitre - Fast and attacking 7. Might not be the biggest guy but it's made up for in what he brings. People had same size critiques on Hooper intially.
Farr-Jones - Fast, genuine try scorer

Very Sydney GPS heavy preview there I know but it's what iv'e see a lot of. Someone throw some others out please.

The QLD Reds media unit has you covered:

New Faces...Five to Watch as the Reds Launch Super Rugby AUS

www.rugby.com.au

Hard to argue with anyone they've got there, but also worth keeping an eye on Brosnan and Muller. With the Reds needing some depth options at lock next year I reckon they'll be very keen to make the most of their opportunity here.

Edit: Sorry, thought this was the Super Aus thread, not the U19s

 

[Red Runner]

Qld has a bit of a mish mash team. Some key players playing QLD and some playing Aust 18s. Probably the same of other states.

Tom Howard at fullback as played a few premier grade games and has been very exciting in colts.

Solafa a very skillfull and mobile hooker

Avery Thomson a decently sized busy lock

Kelly a former centre now moved to No 8 is fairly physical.

Bird was very good in the centres this year, but now 10? Apparently has played there previously.

Cloete had a very good colts season in the centres.

Talakai very good.

I like Keats from the bench.

I've heard Nick Hill can play both sides of the scrum. Be keen to see how he goes.

 

[Wilson]

Brial - Athletic and robust backrower. Probably taller than his brother Joe but similar style of big motor and going through you.

Tall enough to cover lock in the future? I'm sure he'd love to reunite with his brother...
