Although Newington lost to Kings, they did look much better until Sheck went off. They again looked very dangerous against Cranbrook and again didn't play to there fullest capability.

I really think Kings takes the cake. Although Sheck went off early, lets not forget this was a Kings team missing vital players, Fonua, and Smith.

Joeys at 4 is pretty absurd, definitely above Scots in terms of current form. The Scots boys are struggling to get things going for them. As for Kings, they did have key players out Fonua, Smith, Sawyer whilst Newington played a full strength squad though i cannot say the game was the same once Shecky went off, huge shift in momentum. I would love to support your prediction with Newington who is a top 3 contender but going off past results, they struggle to rise to the occasion. Same could be said for scots, but Joeys is either 1,2,3

I think Joeys have the best backline overall (not the best individual backs but the best overall). What should worry the other schools is that whilst the Joeys tight five appear relatively inexperienced and undersized on paper they dominated a much larger and better credentialed Knox pack last Saturday. You’ve been warned.

Without addressing any other pros/cons of the shore side, I want to address the front row.

I counted 4+ penalties given away by Shore off scrums, and I am sure there was more. The size difference compared to the Barker front row was obvious once they stood side by side, and even more obvious in the scrums and malls.

I am going to be harsh - but I think fair… Green must go, the hooker must go (I don’t have a name).
For me, Jarrett proved his worth in this game and has solidified his position. This creates a juggle for the other prop position - between Armati and Hamilton. Both incredible players that both deserve the position, and have that size boost they need - especially with Armati.

Armstrong being out for the year likely not helping the situation either.

Yeah a lot of the team who gave Waverley 3rds a smacking were moved to the 4ths which suggests some good depth - after the reserves were released from the higher teams. 4ths gave Barker a 60+ point pounding as well which suggest some depth in the middle grades.
