This year the Scots 16a's are shaping up nicely, with a very strong side (without any imports, take notes joeys, kings and shore) and with proper coaches. The team are all coming together and creating a very good culture of playing fearlessly and absolutely killing riverview. It seems as though...

Expect to see the team lists for the u18 Waratahs vs Reds to come out very, very soon.

I am very sure they're coming out closer to the start of March

Applies exactly to Scots, younger grade coaching absolutely shocking, ever since Marcus Blackburn left. And then, I won't say 'rely' but more hope some NRL team gifts some boys to the school and help them get some premierships in the upper grades. And this hasn't even worked in recent years...

Have a whinge that Scots imported some players, but we won 5 years in a row and you can't blame it on the fact we had 1 or 2 imports. Every bloody GPS school has imports but because we won then you throw the toys out of the cot. 1993 I'll admit was bad but apart from that it's fine. As you...

just get out mate

Changing the subject, here's a discussion that happens each season. The best GPS RUGBY Rivalries: - Joeys vs Riverview: very well-known, massive history, religious, close to each other, etc - Scots vs Joeys: big history of scots determined to knock joeys off the top, and were the rare school to...

What is the opinion on NRL clubs paying for players to go and board at GPS schools? For example a boy from QLD who roosters have poached, but how will he train when he lives in QLD? Well he can attend Scots so he can train and play with Roosters, so Roosters pay for him to go there. This isn't...

Here's a sobering fact about Joeys Rugby. There are only 16 year groups in Joeys history (since AAGPS rugby began) that never witnessed a 1XV premiership while attending the school. These are the year groups of 1897'-1903', 1913'-1917 & 2013'-2017'. All boys who graduated in those years never...

Around the same time the British arrived in Australia

Noooooo, but the 15as result I understand though

@Joker GPS 1st +20 GPS 2nd +25 GPS 3rd +8 Country +5

Scots 15as beat Kings 15as, what an incredible achievement by the young lads. In a Glengarry year, Scots' 15as are always beaten 50-0, but not this year. After drawing to Riverview and then beating Kings, these lads are looking bright for the years ahead. Why did Kings even bother with their...

I was very surprised to see the shore crowd last Saturday. I was expecting a massive crowd, as that's what's been talked about on this forum by more than bias Shore students. But, the Scots crowd was probably the same size as the Shore crowd. I'm not trying to talk up Scots, I'm just saying that...
