Remember the statement about Barker v Joeys originated from saying Barker won fair and square at the time they played, however in my humble opinion I think Joeys have improved the most since that time. Under some of the logic Melbourne Storm are now the best team in the NRL but that’s a...

Agreed. Consistency hasn’t been our strongest point and it’s something that’s built on successive good performances.

I think the referee struggled, as most of them do to genuinely understand the dominance he had over his opposition. He got penalised for having his head on his opposites chest - only got there from dominating the early hit. In my humble opinion I haven’t seen anyone come near him at any...

I’ll blame Barker’s film crew. They must always be on the same side of the field! I saw the best of Barker without Katoa in the GPS v CAS when they were all fit. Two tries to Barrett from no.1 who absolutely tore their front row apart in the scrums and in general play to the point they they...

Phil Gould was there on the weekend and with his new links to Joeys via the Laundys there are whispers he could be lured over to league, that would be a huge loss for the future.

Arghhh yes that’s correct. All attacking structures now in RL have restricted both the half and 5/8 to one side of the field each. In that game they just get called halves now and it has stuffed their ability to play like the 5/8’s in league from the past. Just go and watch the halves from the...

No that’s brilliant. Maybe the only other reflection is for those poor souls that caught the ‘freight train’ after starting out in the 2nds or 3rds have finished up in the 6ths comp but have never trusted the ‘bias’ within the selection process that somehow favoured the wealthier kids.

The best rugby 10 in Australian Schools is Joey Fowler by the length of a straight. Isaiya Katoa is the best league half back but definitely not a Union 10. Fowler is equally strong left or right, watch Katoa or any highlights and 90% of what he does is on the left hand side of the sticks going...

10 for Joeys played none of the game and 10 for Barker played it all. The results would suggest that across the two comps Joeys have far and away improved the most of all the teams as would the domination of the teams that the 4 players mentioned previously. They haven’t lost a game when playing...

Joeys as a team have been the biggest improvers over the season in Sydney schoolboy rugby by a country mile. Barker definitely got the better of them early in the year but I think you’d see a totally different team now. Joeys big 4 of Barrett, Fowler, Leahy & M Jorgensen have been dynamic for...

This was the disallowed try from yesterday. Add the drop ball over the line and the score line could have blown out over 50.

What on earth could possibly get you to think that View are the best team in the competition, that is delusional. The Joeys team are far superior and when they played at their peak totally dominated field position and the scoreboard. It is a shame that some supporters are so one eyed that it...

Incredible to think that a home game for View is being played away from home. View are going to have to try and find ways to get clean ball out to Cailoli & Perkins to be any chance. They’ll have an advantage with Cooper in line outs. Jack Barrett for Joeys to continue his run of tries...
