My predictions are based on the asumption that IGS will suffer some injuries and depth will rear its ugly head: TSS (if any team gets within 10 points I will be surprised) NC ACGS BGS IGS BBC Gt TGS BSHS Round 1 TSS by plenty NC by 15 BBC by 5 ACGS by 20 Early prediction for 2014.BBC have...

BBC played Harrow school of UK today at Toowong. Match report as follows: 1) Harrow is over 400 years old and has a strong rugby pedigree with several of its past students playing in the World Cup winning England under 20 team this year(also 6 nations under 20 champs).Of course they are also a...

James.You are correct & and a former Australian Schoolboy selector who I spoke to today also agrees with you.

Good point Mr Expert/ Last year BBC were crowing about having 7 boys in rep teams and 2 in Australian schoolboys and they all got injured.2 ( Banks and the Captain(?) did not play a single GPS match and 2 (junior and Quick) played 2 matches and Kalell played 4 matches.Season was gone...

check out our review of day 1 of the qld schoolboy trials! http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/qld-schoolboys-day-1-aic-1-defeated-by-gps-2-gps-1-thrash-css-1/ Dear Monday Expert & others.You will not be suprised to hear that Broncos,Titans & Storm recruiters were all at the trials.Well known...

Not from what I saw against TSS on weekend.still not enough depth at BBC.Maybe 2 years away.16 year olds cannot compete against 18 year olds.Every 4 years you get a British Isles tour & with it loads of repeats.I hear even Wally Lewis,chris Roche etc all repeated to make that 6 week tour ,and...

Could the last half of this match>BBc went in with 6 injuries and Bowen suspended.TSS thrashed them.BBC picked up 3 more serious injuries to Seabrook and Wilkins.Star player for TSS was number 12 and 7 .Too big ,too well drilled.Awesome team is TSS, Overheard 2 BBC coaches saying about...

Well said.very accurate

Hey Mitch: 1)I did not "compare " Wilkins with Chris F/S,>read the post!!i--I said he looked like him (at age 15 with massive thighs); 2) in any event you will find this week that he is named in the chairmans xv to play in Qld trials.Not bad for a 15 year old league centre in 1st year at...

Final score was 7 tries to nil in favour of BBC.My summary is: 1_)BBC played it's number 1 side missing 3 players (Saunder 1st xv hooker last year/ ,Quick GPS rep 13 last year and Karem new 7 from gold coast titans)All were replaced by under 16 players; 2)so it looks like BBC will field a very...

Dear Will.As i predicted-Third at Flyhalf and the GPS1 team dominated by TSS.I could say "I told you so" but I won't, when shall I book you in for that tattoo??

Dear Will. I respect your considered opinion but if : 1) Third is not GPS 1 flyhalf ;and 2) TSS do not have more GPS 1 players than any other school, Then I will go to Valley Ink with Digby and get a tattoo that says"Will was right" As for the GPS premiership - I am content for time to prove me...

You could ask that question of any school 1st xv could you not?but one thing I do know as I have a brother in 16A team that beat GT in a trial today ( only 30 minute half) is : 1) all boys in grade 12 have been there at least 3 years with Bronson,Peterson,Saunders,Russell and a couple of others...

OMG.just back fromGPS trials . In my view barring massive injury crisis TSS are the team to beat. They will dominate GPS1. Have not seen that much depth since BSHS in 2010. They are all fit and hard. Seriously their 2 nd xv this year will be tough to beat against a lot of 1st xv. Their flyhalf...

Specific rugby bodies! Well said ,I overheard one opposition coach saying about TSS reserves who ran on"shit here comes more slabs of granite",.Whoever does their S&C is doing a good job

My understanding is that after the Polla -Monta debacle many years ago(aussie Schoolboy Rugby Captain signed with Bulldogs the day after the British Isles Tour) that the position is: 1)you can play for Qld Schoolboys if you w only have a training contract with an NRL club(like many of the boys...

If it is the same rule as GPS tennis-then it has already been tested this year in the 1st tennis with the following results: 1)does NOT apply to year 11 playing in firsts; 2)does not apply to full fee paying student in year 12 playing in firsts; 3)DOES apply to year 12 playing in firsts-if they...

Some good points here.Fair summary.

Agree-except BSHS to be in tier 2-- and tier 1 is that far above the rest it may be a 2 horse race. TSS play NC in round 4 at TSS.

Is 15 the new BBC fullback from NZ-that other posts have been talking about?If so -what was good about his game? Also did the TSS number 8 from last year play?
