Herbert played QLD 2 in 2017 when they lost the final of the national schoolboys championship to ACT. Just have a look at some of the QPR, super rugby and national talent in those QLD schoolboy teams.

Stewart was very good today.

At 10-12, Bond just needed to make it to halftime but couldn’t find touch and Brothers did a “Crusaders” scoring either side of HT. Neither of the minor premiers in first and second grade made the GF.

Could be some Colts players come into the squad if they lose to Souths and reggies win over Brothers.

Some pretty soft defence in this game. Must have softened each other up last week. So much lateral movement in the first 25 mins.

Someone should shut Werchon up. He’s an off the bench halfback who just bombed a try and the way he goes on…

I am tipping Bond and Easts. Bond because running 5th last year will drive them for another 2 games and Easts because of playing in front of a big tigers crowd.

Is this Harry ‘Willo’ Wilson or his brother?

They’ve just changed his name to Max Dell.

No

There’s plenty of talent they are approaching and the season is not even finished.

When they won the Colts premiership a few years back, it proved to be a false dawn for Souths. The following year they fielded a very young side in first grade and were out of their depth most weeks. Then covid… They look to have built a much broader and deeper base of talent this year. So...

Flook looked pretty badly concussed and didn’t want to leave the field. Not sure how they convinced him to come off! He’s a tough hombre. He will have to sit out this week.

Easts v Brothers sudden death playoff on a nice newly laid surface. Bond v Wests major semi for spot in the GF on a neutral (but looks sandy, uneven and mediocre surface). Showpiece game but surely they could have picked a better venue? If not up to scratch, move to Ballymore and Brothers club...

You can bet on QPR???!

They could play Women’s and Men’s GF this year. Bond@Ballymore

To be clear, I was putting Easts in the category of a cohesive team and well coached. Not a cash splash recruiter. ☺️ Their second grade side is second too. But face Brothers who have lost 1 game. If Easts lose, they probably finish 3rd.

Agreed

Few harsh comments on Bond. Every club wants to win and every club will recruit players to win. Just because they have recruited well and have a bit of cash to splash. But nobody is giving credit to the coach who has to pull them together to be a cohesive unit. Something other clubs could not...
