I heard Pell has been ruled out this year.

If you're good enough you're old enough. Kellaway was the same age so was Ian Cameron in the late 90s. I'm pretty sure Beale was young as well.

Correct, some of the scenes were shot at half time during the Scots v New game. The "action" shots were actually shot at Newington during the following week. Hint I was in one of those scenes. There was also another movie shot at Scots in the 80s about a student having relations with a female...

Ok, back to rugby....... Here is my prediction for the 1st xv 1) Scots 2) Riverview & Kings 3) Joey's 4) Shore 5) Newington

So I heard next year will be two rounds again. Can anyone confirm or deny?

There is no way a school 1st xv trains harder that a U20 league or union rep side. Southside is correct on this. Another point of like to discuss further is this idea that GPS titles help enrollment s. I'd love to see some evidence

Hey Joker, once again you've twisted what I said. I personally think the indigenous scholarships are great. I just enjoy how Joey's got Beale, who was a clear talent well before he set foot at hunters hill, and descised what was a clear sports scholarship under the indigenous program.

Not all rugby followers buddy, just some who cannot argue proplerly. No doubt you'll go running off to complain.

You mean the Kurtly Beale scholarship..... Funny how that is never mentioned

Nope, once again you became a keyboard warrior before engaging brain. I was referring to the US college system champ

Whilst I have suggested GPS and CAS should have a scholarship system I would much more like to see a national or semi national program, where GPS and CAS could still have their comps but structure it in a way where other schools could be involved in domestic comps (not just Waratah shiled) and...

Well then, every GPS school has broken the rules somewhere a long the way. Everyone should be ashamed

It's called being condescending, maybe you'd understand I was being sarcastic if you weren't still living in the 1950s buddy.

Yeah so college kids are as young as 17 when they start at uni on average, the same age as kids in yr 12 playing rugby. Nice try, not adults. If you refer to one of my earlier posts I said it could easily be regulated, ie grades, attendance etc.

I am very much aware of sports high schools that don't have the same facilities as GPS schools and don't focus on Union as much as GPS schools do, champ.

And how does that differ from a university, where people get degrees and can be on sporting scholarships. The rules of the GPS and CAS are outdated to say the least. Not to mention they have been broken by all of the schools over the years. Time to take a fresh approach. And for that matter a...

So again how does that differ from other scholarshis the schools give?

What I find funny about this is that some of the amateur hockey players on the 1980 US team from college on scholarships

Mate, I'm not sure what you're watching but the professional game in Oz is in a coma. Once again as I stated how is a sports scholarship different from an academic scholarship or music scholarship? The violinist will practice for many hours after school as well. Also why should a gifted kid not...
