I read an interesting thread on the Norths Junior Rugby facebook site today https://www.facebook.com/NorthsJuniorRugby that everyones favourite player at Norths, Vuki (yes he did win the Premier Grade Rugby top scorer award by 11 tries), is to start training with the Reds extended playing squad...

Interesting game at Ross Oval today with NC running away with the game in the latter part of the second half. First half was a very scrappy, stop start affair with lots of penalties and basic mistakes (esp from NC). No 7 for GT was an absolute pest at the breakdown causing numerous turnovers...

Vuki from Norths has scored 25 tries compared to 14 to the nearest highest try scorer, that is a serious achievment considering that his side is second last. Surely the Australian 7's set up are looking at him. Scored 5 today. And by the way equal top try scorer last year.

Nudgee 55 v BSH 0, this is a seriously one sided score, does anyone have a report considering people were tipping BSH to win. Are Nudgee back or was it just a poor BSH side. I suspect Nudgee have found some form beating TSS on their home ground and flogging BSH at Carina. Exciting times at...

He had a shoulder reconstruction and has played no rugby at all this year. He is currently involved in coaching at his old school Nudgee. Reports were that he would be ready late season to play colts for his club Brothers, however most likely will sit out the season.

Very entertaining game at Ross Oval today. Possibly not played at the highest level, as it was scrappy at times, however the commitment from both sides could not be questioned. Nudgee forward pack was very good, scrum was solid and had BBC scrum under pressure numerous times. No8 for Nudgee...

No 13 for Norths Rhett Webster is an obvious candidate, big, strong, fst however his fitness levels are not u to scratch for u19 selection. A real smokey could be the 7 Christian Fillipane (?? not quiet sure of spelling) who has been outstanding the last few weeks, however I am guessing there is...

In terms of U19 selection at the end of the day the 5/8 will be determined by what structure the coach and selectors want the team to play. If you go with Greene, you will have an excellent kicking game and game plan around a traditional rugby pattern (Greene reminds me of a traditional type 5/8...

I agree, Vuki is up to 10 tries now for the season and he has bombed at least another 4 or 5. As I said some time ago, he has some serious wheels.

Anyone have any scores, I wasn't able to get to any games although I heard brothers thumped sunny coast. Also heard Paddy James from colts had a run in prems for brothers, good young player that one.

Tough day at the office for the Nudgee boys. It shows they have heaps of work to do before the GPS season starts although this would b as tough as it gets for opposition. Interesting how they back up tomorrow.

Went to Norths v GPS game today. A couple of observations - gps r a very young side with a heap of potential, however were very lucky to get away with a lucky win. There kicking at the back was atrocious to say the least. They lacked some ability to change their game plan when no 13 from Norths...

Nudgee won their quarter final 55-17 after leading 40-5 at half time. They play St Kents from NZ on Saturday afternoon.

I have just googled this school and they appear to the premier rugby school in NZ, at least in Auckland. If anyone is interested go to the blog http://blog.skysport.co.nz/collegerugby/the-2012-season-in-review/#more-18532 which has a thorough overview of the Nz school rugby last year. The...

Nudgee College have won their third pool game by 48-3. By the look of the other pools it appears they may play a Japanese school in the quarters and if they win, will most likely play the Kiwi school, Saint Kentigern College, in the semis. Has anyone heard of the pedigree of this Kiwi school?

There are YouTube highlights of Nudgee's first game. The link for the first half is There is also another video of the second half.

Just a few thoughts on the Brothers v Norths game on the weekend. Great atmosphere at Norths, fantastic place on the hill to watch rugby. Firstly full marks for Brothers the way they are playing the game at the moment, very strong backline, pace across the board, pity it is an ex Norths player...
