    Considering this is the 2024 forum, and that prior to the power-ranking being posted, discussion was about how the trial matches went for all the GPS schools and what those results may indicate for each schools performance in the GPS season, I wouldn't think it's necessary to mention this is the...

    @Joker I wanted to give you a personal update on the wonderful Meat Pie that the Northbridge Mum's offer each week. They were in full force last weekend at the Shore Game, with myself personally snagging 2 pies over a 4 hour window emphasising the wholesome goodness these pies contain. I have...

    There’s couple under rated players in the Shore side I haven’t heard much talk about. Lewis Kingdom in my opinion has been one of Shore unsung heroes. His ability to chop tackle attackers much larger than him is quite impressive. Yet, he is mostly overlooked when looking at the Shore team’s...

    It’s criminal to be putting Riverview’s viewing over Shore’s. Yes, the grandstand may be far away although, like you said you can stand basically on the sideline of the game if you just go to the far side seating/standing area. I think that gives Shore a little boost above Riverview, spectator...

    While I recognise that this is a satirical 'dig' that is passive aggressive at schools besides Joeys, let me give you some insight that will hope to bring some clarity not just for you UpnUnder but the GPS rugby community. I agree that the Shore stand does not face the field the best way...

    In recent years it would be the 2022 side, narrowly beating Riverview, Scots and Newington, close games in which all three went down to the wire, however just losing to Kings at the dying moments and losing to the strong Joeys side of 2022. Prior to Shore's rough patch in the 2nd half of the...

    I can confirm the wrist injury. He was on the sidelines of the game yesterday with large casting around (I believe his right) arm/wrist. TheMaulester

    Agreed, they are looking unreal. Hopefully Lewis Kingdom at 13 can live up to Henry Conick’s aura that he left in that position last year for the Shore School and doesn’t disappoint. So far the kids showing potential. Should be a great comp this year. TheMaulester

    Is this actually the case? I doubt it considering they've been in the CAS since it first began in 1929. One of the very few non-AAGPS schools that could likely pull their weight in the GPS comp across multiple sports. https://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/threads/nsw-gps-expansion.6634/...

    That day is the 4th May, which is Shore's 135 birthday. Norths vs Randwick is at 3:05 pm, then Shore vs Oakhill is at 5pm, under lights, which will be very unique as Shore rarely, if ever, plays at night under lights (Northbridge doesn't have floodlights and it's rare to even have an away...

    Can't argue with that. You might've just changed some of my opinions on the teams performances this year. I do think, the top 4 are very interchangeable this year, but the bottom two are spot on. TheMaulester

    I believe Shore turn around in the past couple years is due to the new head of rugby - David Mason Jones. He has done a great job and it appears, for the first time in the schools history, Shore is now a rugby not rowing school. TheMaulester

    Hey Bud, Looks like you didn't read my statement saying playing when they were 13 doesn't count Otherwise I can count all of these Shore Boys being in Gen Blue pathways Marshall Le matire James Warner Henry Conick Felix Harvison Rex Bassingthwaite Jai Callaghan Charlie Galligan Ed Baxter Alex...

    Hey Mr K, I want to know where the 10 gen blue players are because I can only see 2. Now I'm not sure what we are considering playing gen blue because if your counting them playing when there 13, that doesn't count. If we look at the past year's gen blue teams and pathways and add them all up...

    Completely agree. As a Shore supporter, I'm not too sure about how well Shore will go in the next two to three years. Majority of the Shore 1st team this year will be 2024 graduates. This leaves a lot of space for the 2025 team, although Shore doesn't have many great year 11 or 10 players...

    I've had many ideas on a similar concept to this. Due to the GPS competition's long history, I don't think that it should be altered drastically or altered at all for that matter. However, what if there was a combined competition before the GPS comp starts or after it finishes, where all of the...

    Thanks Scrum and Coke for this comment. If you had been on the forum longer then the past 3 week you’d know that I am a Shore old boy therefore making me bias. I’d also like to add since your having a crack at me, that it’s a bit suspicious that your accusing me of being a student when you’ve...

    Phew! About time, as an old boy from the school it’s quite embarrassing some of the things coming out of this children’s mouths about other players/school. Standards have dropped big time. TheMaulester
