BBC have a very good team, and looking at the boys running water and on Walkie talkies today, a bit of depth when everyone is fit. Their discipline however is dreadful. Most if not all of the penalties and the yellow were warranted. That’s 2 weeks in a row now they have taken their foot off the...

Same thing the same bloke did to BBC a few years ago. Similar words being bandied around - Played favourites, toxic culture ....

YepPablo - at least for the 12 mths that you have been in the forum ! Why so cranky ? I may be mistaken, but I think the Aust’n schoolboy selectors made the same mistake as you infer the reds have made after watching him play at the recent trials ?? C’mon mate - say something positive about...

No - not that close mate - obviously not as close as you and Gungenia - and good on you by the way for getting to all the games. Don’t stop just because you think they’re playing badly. Stop making sense Oracle - I think we are saying the same thing - particularly now that you’re focusing on...

Way off the mark Oracle, and I think your post is a little skewed and to be honest, out of place. Firstly, credit to BGS - very well prepared by their coach - BBC had no answer to the BGS game plan, and , ominously, couldn’t adapt to the rushing defence ( albeit offside most of the day , as was...

Back to therapy for Les !!

BANG !! Wise Sage - you got me !! I bow to your infinite wisdom and rapier-like wit !! Lets assume that you meant "lose", and wasn't talking about the "loose" 2....or 6, or 7 for that matter..... So endorsing your wise counsel, should we go and advise all teams who have lost more than 2...

Sounds like an excuse to me !!!

Sage - I think you've lost focus already and can't listen ! The season is not over until the end of Round 9 genius. Schoolboy sport is about participation, and injury and illness impacts this. Would be great to see all boys , even the ones you don't care about from firsts down to 12ds, able to...

Just heard that the BBC winger is going to be ok - awesome news. Unfortunately Les Patterson is still in therapy !!

Can't agree more Realist !! There is no doubt the quality of the 1st XV schoolboy rugby is good - but at what cost ? What is schoolboy rugby really about ? Schoolboy Rugby is about the 400 or 500 boys in the programme, not just the 1stXV and A teams. 1st XV and A teams is certainly the...

Not sure who is coaching them this year but was told by someone at the school that they lost their way a bit last year with the coaches they had - supervised rather than coached, and this year, boys out of position making way for new boys coming in.

Agree - GPS has to look at taking rugby back to term 2. It is nonsense having disruptions in the season like last weekend, not to mention schoolboy selection trials before anyone has played a game. Would also pick up some of the kids rugby is losing to basketball. By the way, BBC 15As had a few...

Gee - they must be confident down at Toowong ! BBC were the only school to have no age group trials last weekend and the only school not to have a rugby camp in the last week of term - followed by a Bye in the first round this weekend ! At least the boys will be well rested ... if not overly...

Barker ripped the guts out of BBC Rugby - recruited a lot of talented athletes ( rugby league ) , but could not mould a united, talented rugby team. A strong united core is the key, and from what transpired on the field at Toowong over the last 3 years, that didnt happen. Hopefully GT are...

If this isn't a wake up call for the administrators of the GPS sport to get rugby back into term 2, I don't know what is!

Might very well be the approach being discussed BaG, but this will only be relevant from the current year 6 cohort down, as they are the first year coming through where the July 1 class date was in place. If they take this approach with the current year 7s up, it will add another different age...

Confirmed today by director of sport at one of the schools that no deal has been done - far from it. It has been discussed, like it has every year for the last couple. In any event, it needs to be agreed by all of the Headmasters, and it hasn't even made the agenda there. The cohort currently...
