Mate please, if you look at the tackle the view 12 is there before Angus with his hands competing fir the ball. Angus comes in after and there is no choking hold at all, unless of course the view kid was trying to choke him by putting his hand in his mouth. Either way biting is considered pretty...

" the lady doth protest too much"

Of course he may have no idea what is actually going on in his own school. Hogan!!!!!, yes colonel??

From the footage available, he had obviously suffered a brain trauma to some extent. When a player clearly can't demonstrate balance and hold their feet, they have suffered a concussion, possibly not a complex concussion, but a concussion none the less. Even if the school and coaches place...

agree

You are only looking at one team. I think its been made pretty clear that scots are not playing off the same hymn sheet as every one else. Very simply you need to discount their results and focus on the competitive nature of other games. Once you get out of the scots community no one else out...

IS, poor Scots. What about the sides that they are playing. Boys in other schools constantly reminded they are playing a team that has considerable resources for preparation well in excess of their own school, and that they are playing a team that is unfairly stacked with scholarship boys which...

I totally agree. Those that are finding reasons why Scots didnt put 100 on Riverview obviously werent at the game, and those that seem to think $cots$ took it easy are quite simply full of it. Lets be clear on this. All points were scored at one end with the wind at the sides bcks. Riverview 21...

The wind made it pretty hard for both teams going into it. Riverview were fantastic in the first half with a great defensive effort and some quality attack. Scots had the better of the referees calls in the second half, yellow carding one of the locks which saw Scots score 4 tries with him off...

Yes, lets get back on track. Even if bloggers are anti Scots, there is still a real comp going on within the other 5 schools, and that comp is experiencing some great results, some upsets and some great rugby.

At nearly all levels of competitive sport, if one side is right up and the other is off ( illness/ injury etc) then you get score blow outs. Happens in loig all the time. I agree that regardless of the opposition you are most disrespectful if you don't play to your best for the full period...

Talking with a View dad who saw the SBH 2nd XV, mentioned that SBH lacked discipline and had a number of boys binned for foul play. The game apparently was not too much fun for anyone involved. I also think you're correct in that the assumption that because they have extensive training regimes...

Interestingly Farr-Jones didn't have a lot to say when his beloved imported New were terrorising lesser sides over the last 2 years .

Any predictions on the expected crowd size at View v Scots? Given a top of the table clash, and the press Scots have received, could be a big one.

I think Joeys are the only school that can genuinely lay claim to having a comprehensive rugby program. It obviously isn't built around weights programs because as they don't have facilities to be putting all those boys through, but it is built around a long tradition of wanting to be successful...

Thanks for the update

If you think that beating every other school by between 60-111 ? is an outcome that is a result of good planning you will be one of the very few. For the so called super stars you have mentioned, there are quite a few that weren't there in yr 7 as well. Do you think other schools don't train...

True but very few actually cared that much for the basketball comp, and many probably knew that there would still a number of scholarships to filter through the system, but the pressure from parents, boys, staff and old boys will be immense on the heads given that rugby is still the premier GPS...

Were there any match reports done on round 4 this week?.

These recent results that Scots are posting look a lot like the thrashings that Scots were dishing up in the basketball right before the GPS heads shut that down. Could their absolute obliteration of other schools in rugby 1st XV, be their undoing again. Their success is not just a result of the...
