If Joeys wins it will be a huge upset as well. Joeys has not been playing well as a unit. Scots came back at them hard towards the back end of the 1st game and that never happens against Joeys. Drew against what's proving to be a pretty weak Shore team and were beaten by New and View. Yes, the...

No worries Rugbynbeers. Noted that Kings have cultivated good depth and are using the boys wisely. My point is that unforced positional changes are not ideal and I may be corrected, but I think Scots has changed their team a fair bit and not because of injury.

Big out if he's not playing Thursday. Looking at Scots team sheet every week, big changes and postional shifts. Injuries aside ( and there are a lot ), not sure changing positions of players from week to week helps continuity. Out of need, I can understand but changing for the sake of losing may...

On the Scots team list, What happened to Leo Jacques ?

Not the worst idea Sorry

The reason for Thursday games could be ; 1) Long weekend no games 2) Give the boys a rest on the Sat 17th June before GPS games etc. No the worst idea.

Ss predicted, all home favs won in round 4. Kings and New by a fair margin and View got over Joeys well in the end. This is the last throw of the dice for the bottom 3 teams who are all hosting the 3 favs this Thursday. I think you'll find that most/all away schools will bus out some supporters...

INP As per, great points. The whole purpose of moving the game last year was to prevent or at least limit the possible/probable old boy disturbances yet with no security ( bag checks etc ), what's the use and why not keep the game at Lane Cove and limit the point of entrances ( gates, security...

Tomorrow's games are very important; If the favourites win ( assuming Kings,View and New are favs ) they will start to put a gap on the pack. If there are upsets, esp Kings v Scots, then it closes up and becomes very interesting. Hoping my View boys win as there could be an upset on White Oval...

Your response is expected Goosestep. Intelligence is your strong point.

What is Rugby Culture ? Is it different from school to school ? Is Rugby Culture a packed compulsory Joeys stand, supporting their teams "better" than a small group of enthusiatic away New boys going off when their team produces an upset ? A school that basically funnels the majority of boys...

Has Mary turned the other way or is there still time ? This weekend will be telling. Lose and it's all over.

Joker Be careful. You've opened up a can of worms with accusing View old boys of racial abuse etc and of course Joeys old boys do nothing of the sort. Play the ball, not the Man. Cyclops is watching.

Hi Joker Late change of tips due to injuries : Kings by 10 all else the same Thanks for your help

David was always a "goody, goody". In all seriousness, David is/was very diligent, hard working and would have been a great leader in the 90 and of course as captain in 91. Those Joeys teams were awesome. The Kings 20 team was very good. The Scots 14 team was good as well. Special mention to the...

Having spoken to David K about his time at Joeys, he regards the 90 team as a more talented individual team but thinks that the 91 team had to work harder and achieved more than the 90 cause they didn't have the superstars. Remember watching both teams and I agree with him.

So from this Joker, no school has gone 10 rounds undefeated. Closest was New and Scots 9/1. Interesting that when there was 10 rounds previously, Joeys has not done too well and has started this season slow as well. Is there something in that ? Would think it would suit them.

Question : Has, and if so when and who, a school gone undefeated in 10 round comp ? If King's achieves this, it's a huge compliment to their Rugby program ( even though some question their methods ).

maybe he needs to get his head into a few more rucks ?

Three word that should not be said too often however : I'm off Joeys ( this year !) They lack size, playing too side to side ( as mentioned in previous posts, need to tweak their attack ) and have had crucial injuries ( Jorgo/Young ) at bad times. Must win every game to have a chance, but can't...
