Is there a reason both games are played in NZ, pretty unfair for for the aussies to play both games in Wellington. I understand the 2nd game as it allows for the game to be the curtain raiser for the crusaders and hurricanes but surely they could have travelled to AUS for the first game?

Is this forum only looking at try's from Australian rugby teams? Because there were some pretty extraordinary try's from the Chiefs that might have been overlooked due to how good they're playing. IMO, Marky Marks try assisted by Walton and Jorgensen is my top 1 for the year, (might be a little...

Yep, only player that i can really think of that 'got away' was tolu koula, he was pretty superb on the wing. Quite a few players from that team such as Nick Chan no 12. and a few others are still playing shute shield in NSW

Sua'ali'i played for Australian Schools u18 in 2019.

Well done to Ronan Leahy, Hattrick after being a late call-up. He needs to work on his defense although it is warranted as it's his first time playing wing. Henry O'Donnell looked very comfortable in the 13 jersey, definitely one to look out for in the future.

BRING ON DOWLING. An Out an Out full-back.

He is a true talent, and will be back for 2024 aswell. His defense is a bit of a liability though something that can easily be worked on. Newington utilised their 12 to a great degree (something that has been lacking for years). Funnily enough, the inside center usually plays 2nd XV but got...

I'm happy to accept the mistake about him playing 12, which Jersey was he playing in for the game? Because when I read the Kings lineup it stated he was at 12.

yeah but that's precisely the point i'm trying to make, Boston played inside center this week??? You can't compare two players in different positions just because one can play both.

Hahahahahahah, in the first comment you said they are the two best 10s in the GPS comp. Now you're saying they are the best two 10s at the moment. Make up your mind because the difference in those two statements are significant. Also, the Newington fly-half was the best 10 in all three games...

On what basis?

2016 i believe

Thought i'd give a go of the GPS 1st and GPS 2nd XV backlines after round 3 1st XV 9. Hwi Sharples 10. Joe Dillon 11. Hadley Tonga 12. Boston Fakafunu or Oscar Jorgensen (both are very easily interchangeable) 13. Liam Grover 14. Casey McLean 15. Tom Klem 2nd XV 9. Lachlan Smith 10. Sam...

New 14 definitely deserves a mention. Excellent on attack and defense. Really happy to see Humphries gain confidence and spark up multiple attacks. Talis McEwen first game in the 15 jersey and playing at Joeys is an extremely difficult task, but he handled the pressure very well. Newington have...

Devastating.

How fkn good

Cmon Moana

Rebels playing excellent, though force are making countless mistakes

Don't think so, but i'm pretty certain baxter warner is injured who was likely another player that could easily replace most positions in the backline. Stanley Martin was an athletic runner for the athletics last year competing in multiple events. He should be alright.

I'm fine with both the centers, Martin at 11 is a little bit daunting but i think Casey McLean plays his best footy on the wing (he scored 4 tries in 3 games on the wing last year).
