Absolutely @Joker. And they play with incredible commitment and courage. They should be applauded.

3rd XV Round 3 Preview This is the final round before the mid-season break, and we have three undefeated teams looking to stay that way. Grammar, Scots and Shore are all playing well, and have signalled that they are all premiership contenders this year. They don’t play each other until after...

Grammar did not win the 3rd XV competition last year nor the year before (and only twice in the last decade). A bit premature to be suggesting promotion. Plus they usually have only two teams per grade in most age groups and that's an issue because it's not just about your 1st XV - its about who...

3rd XV Round 2 Report We have had only two competition rounds, but already the favourites are making themselves known. Three teams are undefeated - Scots, Shore and Grammar. Two teams have had one win - Riverview and Kings. Three teams have had two losses - Joeys, TAS and High. There are still...

Hi @Jim Belshaw King 17 d TAS 12 Cheers INP

I am sure that the AAGPS have considered a 9 team 3rd XV competition and I agree with you @Here for the advice that it would be a great idea. Having Newington in the competition would allow ALL GPS schools to compete together. I understand that scheduling and byes have been the main issues...

3rd XV Round 2 Preview After a very exciting Round 1 and time off for the long weekend, Round 2 is being played this week on Saturday 15 June. While it’s still early in the competition, there are some crucial games that will impact the premiership chances of a number of teams, and I will be...

Love your work @RushingRob and its great to see some enthusiasm for the 3rd XV competition in the forum. I will be producing the Round 2 Preview tomorrow (Thursday) but in the meantime a few comments on your very astute predictions. Scots are definitely the front runners and no doubt about it...

Your assessment is accurate @TheMaulester. I also think Grammar are right in it following their first round win over Kings. Round 2 Preview comes out tomorrow as usual. Cheers INP

Also worth noting that in March this year Billy Blair ran a World Leading Time of 13.54 for the U18 110m hurdles. I suspect his future is in Athletics rather than Rugby but you never know.

The 3rd XV is not being ignored for this Thursday - it's a scheduling issue. There are 10 rounds in the 1sts and 2nds and they need to use the long weekend week to fit them all in. You will note that the 3rd XV competition runs in parallel and ends on the same weekend as the 1sts and 2nds. There...

The 3rd XV comp is a very hard competition to win if you lose a match as there are only seven games and no return matches. (Although Kings and Riverview were joint premiers two years ago with one loss each, so it's not impossible.) Having said that, Scots were undefeated premiers last year and...

3rd XV Round 1 Report It was one of the wettest days ever for Round 1 of the 3rd XV competition but four teams made the most of it to post good wins. Scots 3rd XV 17 d Joeys 3rd XV 12 Match of the round was a very close affair at Bellevue Hill and congratulations to Scots on a good first up...

A great memory, Lindommer. As a former Joeys boarder, I can confirm that was absolutely the case. We all loved playing and we all trained hard. Pretty much everyone wanted to be in the team above and trained and played accordingly. Joeys is not the only school that embodies these principles but...

Yes. I just posted the 3rd XV preview as I usually do. You wont see soccer discussion on this forum (usually).
