3rds will not be on Cluch until the competition rounds start next week.

3rd XV Trial 4 Preview The final trial for the 3rd XV competition is being played this Saturday. It is also the competiiton round match (out of order) between TAS and High in Armidale. TAS 1st XV v High 1st XV (Competition Round 7 played early) TAS and High get an early start to the 3rd XV...

It can be a bit academic as trials are often played "out of grade". In 2019, the Joeys 1st XV lost the trial to Knox. The 2nd XV did not lose a single game in trials or comp. The 3rd XV lost a trial against St Aloysius 1st XV, who then went on to play quite well in the CAS 1st XV comp that year...

Thanks very much RnB. If it's not on Cluch then I will not see it live - I expect to be at Northbridge for Shore v Joeys. Greatly appreciate any report that you have on the Newington v Kings match. Reporting will be much easier when the 3rds comp starts with all Sydney based games hopefully on...

Thanks very much Rudderless. I thought they might be splitting that way. I will include in my match preview. Regards INP

Thanks RnB I try to follow the AAGPS fixtures but occasionally these vary. I still don't know how Stannies 3rds managed to play both High AND Grammar last week :-) Grammar are scheduled to play St Pats as well this Saturday so perhaps one team is playing against their 1sts and the other team...

3rd XV Trial 3 Results High 1st XV 45 d St Stanislaus 3rd XV 10 It has been reported that High 1st XV have made it two wins in a row with victory over Stannies 3rds by a decent margin. They have now scored 70 points in the last two matches (compared to 0 points in the comp last year). What a...

I saw Riverview defeat Waverley (from outside the fence of course) and they performed well. Their defence on their line for an extended period was excellent, particularly since Waverley hammered them up the centre with big forwards. Then when View got the ball their backs were very slick. I...

3rd XV Trial 3 Even though the 1st and 2nd two round competition starts this week, the 3rd XV competition over one round of seven matches does not commence until Saturday 27 May. Kings 3rd XV v Shore 3rd XV Kings scored a close win over Scots last week and now tackle Shore 3rd XV at North...

Great history Joker! The current shield for the 3rd XV competition - The Col Windon Shield - was donated by the SGS Fathers Association in 2018. It has all of the 3rd XV premiers from 1918 to 1961 on a single plaque, then individual shields for every year from 2012 onwards. Worth playing for!!!

The reason that Newington is not in the 3rd XV competition dates back to the time of the reinstated 3rd XV competition in 2012 when it was determined that Grammar 1st XV and High 1st XV would leave the 1st and 2nd competition and compete against the 3rd XV from other schools. TAS 1st XV joined...

It didnt explicitly say "No INP Entry" but it is disappointing that Riverview appear to be maintaining their NO VISITORS policy. "Grounds and facilities are closed to members of the public." Go to Tambourine Bay or Burns Bay Reserve you plebs! Fair enough on school days but on weekends with...

3rd XV Trial 2 Results High 1st XV 25 d Newington 3rd XV 24 What a great win for High and the first victory for a number of years. Considering that last season they did not score a single point in 7 comp games, this is a great result and a sign that they will be in the mix in the 3rd XV...

3rd XV Trial 2 Kings 3rd XV v Scots 3rd XV What a great trial this will be and match of the round for mine, with the defending co-premiers opening their trial season against a strong Scots outfit. Should be a close contest at North Parramatta. Kinross 1st XV v Grammar 1st XV Following their...

3rd XV Report - Trial 1 Joeys The match at Hunters Hill against Gregs 1st XV was excellent preparation for the season. Even though Joeys lost 10-15, it was two tries each and only a conversion and penalty separated the teams. Gregs have two huge locks and plenty of speed out wide that really...

Thanks very much Rudderless. Aloysius and Grammar very close as expected but what a win to Kinross. Cheers INP

3rd XV Trials - 29 April Oakhill 3rd XV v Shore 3rd XV Should be a good match but I suspect Shore's depth will test Oakhill in this one. High 1st XV v Riverview 3rd XV The joint GPS premiers from last year take on a much improved High 1st XV but View should still be too strong. Grammar 1st XV...

Well that would be good.

From my point of view the broadcasting of the GPS Rugby on Cluch in recent years has been was a great success - giving access for GPS supporters to view the games without over exposure of the players. It not like they are showing it on Channel 9 or Fox Main Event! I do acknowledge and agree...
