Hello Cyclopath Unfortunately, Cyclopath, the Nature of some Anglican Schools is now directly connected to Rugby and impacts upon our game at a schoolboy level. As elements within the Anglican Church, would prefer to select a good Anglican who attends Church, as opposed to a well qualified and...

We should here in Sydney, make consideration, that Aussie Rules becomes a summer sport. That way, it doesn't compete with Rugby for numbers. Lets face it, the game looks more like basketball, than the winter sports of both rugbys. Even soccer is widely different from Aussie Rules. From a...

Hello Chip Kick The fact that Italy and Japan have more U13s playing the game is warning for Rugby Australia, that they are failing and failing badly as sport administrators. We should put Raylene Castle on bonus system. The stronger the game gets, the more she gets paid. Our game suffers...

Well done, Harv, my own personal belief that trying to rebuild CHS Rugby at present might well be a lost cause. An alternative to the elite schoolboy competitions would be a major investment directly into club juniors. The more effort a club puts into their juniors, the stronger they will...

If I remember correctly, the next three test matches were all decided by a margin of one point, be it a win or a loss. How times have changed we are now so far behind NZ, Australia would struggle to beat their 2nd XV or 3rd XV.

I remember watching Cranbrook that year play TAS up at Armidale. They won 18-3 against a strong TAS side, I believe they also beat Kings that year as well, I think the score was 20-13 to Cranbrook. Yes, I remember seeing the score while watching TV during the Test Match. I also remember...

Hello QH The Phillips Zone that contained Sydney Boys High, North Sydney Boys High, Randwick Boys High, Matraville High, Fort Street Boys High, Cleveland Street Boys High, Vaucluse Boys High and other schools was a particularly strong zone. These days very few of these schools play Rugby at...

Hello Joker If memory serves me correctly Cranbrook beat Joeys in 1988 15-10. Cranbrook kicked 5 penalties to 2 Joeys tries. Joeys might have being fielding a 2nd XV. Not sure about that Regards B&W

Hello Joker Great stuff Joker, Robb College found Old Boys tough opponents when playing them. Sounds like we might have attended some games together, but from opposing sides.

Hello ItsNotPink Its good for GPS Rugby and the U/15 Competition that the competition is starting to become more competitive. Its also so good for Shore and their boys that they are enjoying success.

. Hello Up the Guts Shore now pose the Greatest threat to New's record. New has great respect for Shore's 15 As since they were the 13As. By the way do you know the result of 15AS Shore's game against Joeys.

Hello Formerflanker Currently, your 15As are recognised as a force in their competition, also the 16As I believe are a useful force as well. I feel Shore supporters just need to patience for a few more years.

I was their also Joker in 1985, by any chance did you reside in St.Alberts College. I attended Robb College. If so small bloody world.

Last week it was a 14-14 all Draw. New had a try disallowed in the last minute of the game. But the Margins of New wins are getting smaller. New 15As beat Kings 15-5 today, but last year the score was 64-0

Hello everyone just back from Kings And another excellent game of Schoolboy Rugby between two well coached and very talented Sides.The score of 36-17 does not serve as a true indication of the Game. Yes, the score was 17-14 at half -time and New 'piled on three more tries in the Second Half...

Hello Bolivia Do you remember the score. From my memory of 1985 only TAS winning 3-0 with a Field Goal kicked by Richard Tombs and Kings winning 9-4 with a runaway try against the run of play beat Joeys . Joeys shared the premiership with Shore whom they beat 20-0 in the Preseason and 11-0...

The last time I think Cranbrook beat Joeys was in 1988 and the score was 15-10. Cranbrook won by kicking 5 Penalties to Joeys 2 tries. As for 1985, I believe only TAS and Kings beat Joeys that year. But Cranbrook I believe Joeys in 1986 ( According to the Late Martin Pitt )

Hello JoeysRule First as a Newington supporter, what I saw was an excellent game of Rugby between two excellent teams. Rugby in this day and age has less to do with physical brutality and intimidation. Rather, skills are a required premium for success. In this regard Joeys have such skills in...

If Joeys were to put their seconds and thirds in the 1st XV competition, I have no doubt they would be exceptionally competitive against the 1st XVs of other schools.

As confirmed in the program, at least.
