Kings were outclassed by a crew of 16 year olds from St Pauls. In fact their 5-man had only just turned 15. Will be interesting to see how St Pauls (the perennial favourites) go against the yanks from Woodrow Wilson (an underprivileged public school who had to raise their own funds to get to...

Kings have done well to get to the last 8 (out of 32 schools from UK, USA, Ireland and Aust)

we can put away our partisan rugby-glasses and cheer for the Aussie boys - I wonder how many of those Kings boys would have been in the rugby 1s and 2s?

not rugby, but some may be interested in how Kings rowers are going at Henley

I doubt that - Joeys scrums are properly coached and never call uncontested.

I believe that there is no longer "Australian Schools" - it has been amalgamated with U18 and called "Australian Schools and U18". The pathway system is confusing, more like a garden path. The Riverview tournament has been devalued by precluding those boys still at school, but selected in Gen...

it's not rocket surgery ...

long story - the role goes to a natural leader who is strong on ethics, teamwork and communication, and whom the boys respect. What crew he's in is irrelevant. In the Marist spirit, there are no prefects at Joeys.

Joeys Captain of Boats was in the 3rd Four

still playing for the mighty Narrabri Blue Boars

wouldn't bet on the same result if there was a rematch, Simon. Barker beat Joeys, Scots beat Barker, Joeys beat Scots

is that a quiz question Joker? Or perhaps you could ask which of these boys became a high profile dentist who pioneered the "All-on4" procedure and who recently sold his Mosman home for $22m?

Darcy Fogarty will probably play out the season in the 4 jumper for Joeys, with Archie Campbell coming back into 6 and Pat Young at 7 (or vice versa).

No they weren't H4L... Joeys scored 5 tries v View: 1. set up by strong run by MJ, flicked to OJ who scored in the corner 2. good pass from No6 put Caleb Murphy a clear run to the corner - no MJ involvement at all 3. single handed barging run from OJ to score near the posts like a prop - no MJ...

the Joeys backline is still a work in progress. Pat Young is actually a flanker and played there in the early trials before being moved into the 12 slot for the 4th (Knox) and 5th (Scots) trials, before moving back to No6. Oscar Jorgensen played 12 in the early trials then moved back to his...

if you had any clue you would know that Hugh Bokenham is in the Waratahs squad, along with Will Harris. The Scots No6 is a useful player but not in the same league.

we just beat them in London in the final of the Sevens to win that tournament (with disgracefully little coverage in the media) - sign that aussie rugby is on the move :p

I can agree with that - there was raucous support (as you would expect) but no sledging or personal abuse.

see my post from Saturday, Dan (below) Bit of sportsmanship in the Joeys 3rds v Knox 2nds game. Very even tussle played in good spirit, with Knox leading 14-12 when Joeys were awarded a penalty 45m out and in front with time up on the clock. Joeys bizarrely opted for the kick at goal (not the...

no - you were right originally. Joeys 12th were due to play "a Scots team" (grade undefined) but it seems that the game did not proceed and an internal 7s game was played. Joeys 11ths played Knox 7ths (and lost 5-10).
