Hello Tony I trust that is the final score If so that puts Newington 16As at 3Wins 1Draw 1 loss. How does that measure up with other schools and the their results coming in. Hello RugbyBeers Does this mean they are predominately a year 11 side ,if so can we expect TKS to a very experienced...

Hello Rob hart No need to cut your wrists yet and I know where your coming from. Newington was expected to perform better than we have. But other schools have simply been better. So be positive and give credit, where credit is due. Kings and View have performed above expectations. Shore have...

Hello Tony weave Very much so, I do believe if the current 16A teams can maintain and improve their form and playing standard, the GPS competition of 2024 will be an exciting one with potentially 6 strong competitive teams.

There is potential, that abusive comments to a boy, groups of boys, or even to the school they attend, could result in child abuse charges. DET and child services, have little tolerance towards such abusive behaviour.

Many thanks, you are doing a great job

Hello Joker Just wondering if you got the Newington Versus Kings results in the 13s A&Bs and 14As&Bs. As both these age groups have shown promise and Improvement, particularly the 14As. Its nice to know where they stand in their age Divisions. Many Thanks if you can

They also attended to buy the former College at Hurstville, but the then state government blocked the development so it was abandoned.If it gone forward we now would have a campus of 900 to 1200 hundred boys, located in the Souther Districts, with the prospect that Rugby would have a stronger...

Well said DaSchmooze, as a former teacher who taught in both Public and Independent systems, you don't have to scratch deep, to discover the hostilely you mentioned.Former Sydney High Principal, Bob Outsider, fought long and hard to keep High's GPS traditions alive. But the DET as you pointed...

Hello Old High Boy As mentioned, the problem lies with State Government Policy, about selective High Schools. High has been designated in the academic stream. Hence, only boys of academic inclination are chosen for entry. Many are from non Anglo-Saxon backgrounds and Rugby is not in their...

Hello cyclopath As a new supporter, a great many, ten years ago were just racist bigots. Other just hated Newington, for a variety of reasons.I taught as a teacher ,like Joker, this gives an insight into a disturbed mind. Hence, with our backgrounds we have an ability to identify such trolls. I...

The reason is simple, the abundance of trolls, who are neither interested or willing to contribute to the GPS Rugby, as emotionally intelligent commentators. Many just wish use this site, to push some personal BS about GPS Schools. A more proactive policy that identifies trolls is the way to go...

Both teams are hitting their straps in terms of improvement. I think New might be ahead, in terms of form, Shore a couple of weeks behind New. I would expect teams to be stepping up from last week. Could be anybodies game.

Hopefully its only temporary

Hello Taralga And with the a outdoor campus planned to start in 2024 for Newington. We can expect the same issues to emerge within Newington Rugby. I think Michael Parker, is a great Headmaster, but I don't think the outdoor campus a is a great decision. It's impact on sport at Stanmore, will...

Hello Dusk Most happy that you disagree, as a New supporter, I don't like to talk up our achievements. As it sounds arrogant and belittling to another school. Another school does the arrogant theme very well This time I may have be wrong and in hindsight, you were right. The other error I...

Yes, we produce some outstanding age group teams, like our current 16As. Some critics say its puberty, others coaching. Nevertheless, todays win puts new in a good position to finish well, far better than critics expected.

Hello Albi Yes, I always felt they had potential this year, but still "a work in progress".

well done Shore

New 34-tks 22, Newington were by a slight margin the more nimble, more creative side, but not by much.Kings score a runway try, though not the length of the field showed they also had creative runners when given the ball in hand. For me, Newington's ability when in the possession, to maintain...
