Thanks for the reminder Joker. We can't call the players grubs I assume ? Banter !!

Hi Dusk you seem to know a bit about New. What was your recolection of the Scots/New game last year ? Miracle or not ? Agree, New backs have speed with Rodwell,TFJ,Mclean Junior and Avati. Cleverley is solid and Humphries plays a good 10. Needs to give his outside backs clean and early ball...

Hi Dusk Wasn't there but according to reports, it was the last play of the day. Try to New with kick to win. Miracle as it was at Scots and New underdogs. Bullocks

If Bartlett and Steep are out, Joeys are a good chance. Team lists would be helpful. New pulled off a miracle win last year at BH and Joeys would like nothing else to revenge their loss 30years ago to Scots on Scots reunion day. As we all know, Joeys trial form is trial form. Comp is when it counts.

Newington vs Riverview ( preview ) Riverview must throw the ball around and use their clever backs and speed to run the New boys for the whole game. New look fitter than in previous years but do have a big pack who have matched Knox,Wav and Barker. Riverview are coming off ok trial games and...

New +7 Kings +14 Joeys +3

Will be a good game New vs Barker tomorrow. New are looking fitter than in previous years and have had some good wins aganist Knox and Wav even though the usual talk of who's out "slants" the result. Think if New can match Barker's forwards and they have done this and more against arguably...

It's the attention to detail, naming the schools correctly, that's important. Right idea, poorly executed. Uppercut NSW Rugby.

I'm in

Newington have put a lot of emphasis on fitness/conditioning this year ( Wand sand dunes etc ). Can't come soon enough. 10 round comp will be survival of the fitest. Joeys are always fit. Not sure about Scots/Kings. They seem to favour strength. View and Shore do their best. McLean junior from...

My very early ladder prediction : Kings New Joeys Scots View Shore Scots could surprise. They came very close in a few games last year ( New,Joeys ) but not sure ? Joeys will be strong and have depth but have lost some good players and will be fairly young although their 15's last year were...

I have heard the same thing about View. Their 16's are strong and a few could play up this year however the coaches are keeping them together. This may not last due to the 10 round comp ( injuries ). Also, even though I like the idea of the team growing together and forming combinations, having...

There are 2 ways you can look at it : Obviously, Joker's subtle ( and sometimes not so sublte ) way of sterotyping certain schools/groups as a "joke " therefore the chants by schoolboys may be received as a joke ( as long as they don't cross the thin line of being racist ) or The school the...

Hi schoolboyfooty That's a big blow for New having Owen out for the season. Thought he had a good season last year. I guess the good news is that whoever the halfback is, they'll get some time/trials to form a combo with Humphries. New's outside backs are again lethal like last year. Depth will...

Max Jorgenson played well with the limited oppotunities he was given. Finished off one of the few backline moves the Tahs did all game for a good winger's try. Tackled fairly well and contributed where he could. Solid without being outstanding. Agree that he fits in the NSW team well but to...

Big step up for Max Jorgenson. Hope he handles it well and gets good support from his fullback and centres. Corey Toole is a very good and experienced Aust sevens player. Max will be tested defensively. We all know he is a very skilful ball runner however playing fullback is different to...

Interesting to Mr. Jones expressing his desire to have a few rugby league boys back playing union. ie Joseph and Cameron. Though both contracted for the next few years and Cameron being a Captain, could make a few other union boys think twice before making the jump to the dark side. As mentioned...

Hi All Long time reader, first time poster. As an old timer, I enjoyed the "winner takes all" "each game is a grand final" type of games that the single round comp had. It created a different atmosphere as it was do or die and everyone knew it. I am interested to see how the home/away comp...
