Well when these boys i have mentioned starting putting some joeys boys on their arses and winning games, i guess my point can be taken.

GPS 1st XV (no bias) 1. Doug Streeter (Shore) - Strong last year, proved himself undoubtedly against his bigger opponents and is very mobile. 2. Jono Burke (Kings) - Solid Unit, hits hard and should represent kings well both in this team and the Kings team. 3. Matt Sandell (Joeys) (C) -...

on another note, I know has its first trial fixture against Oak hill, who are the other GPS schools versing?

as i will say now, where theres money, there's opportunity. And where there's oppurtunity, there's making the Wallabies. Gentlemen, Rugby Union is a rich man's sport. No matter what will happen, we are the Human being's of the food Chain as to compare the GPS competitions of Australia. The...

they may not be providing scholarships, but putting boys up the enrolment list because they may be excelling at rugby in year 6 is a surely safer way.

God dammit, it seems St. Augustines is the new tonga!

I finished in 07'. very short memory.

Finally this has been done. I remember my days at newington rugby training were running up johnson bank countless amounts of times still we were drained of enthusiasm for the sport. Then when in year 12 (made the 3rd XV) I learnt for the first time how to scrum properly (new had purchased its...

nor did i see the batman either.

Well 1 GPS premiership in rugby, a 3rd place in the the 4th IV race at the HOTR (augies boy was rowing in it) and a video technician coming by the name of Sam Evans on his Youtube channel, done the school proud with his rowing/rugby/swimming film videos, I'm sure his videos attract a lot more...

its not scots, its Newington that have em. and for greater good! 1. Joey Lussick 2. Ellis Abrahams 3. David Morris 4. Simon Kennewell 5. Sam Evans (the man who filmed it all)

Hugh Jarse, how did this tournament of teams get chosen or picked? how come there is not more GPS and/or CAS schools participating, I'm sure many schools would've liked a show of players there, would be a good warm up for the lads but i can see why injury could be prone.

very early in the season, but have view already got there 1sts and 2nds team listed? i know Newington is just coming off summer season and has started skills and scrum training as a squad. This just shows the eventual split between GPS and CAS ability.

well if we want to beat the all-blacks in the next world up, I guess we might start somewhere?

unfortunately some of them have......but it should give them guidance or confidence in some instances to know that they are worth attention at least from the majority of the old boys on the forum. they have put in hard work over the off-season and it seems fine to me that we can be critical or...

I hear the likes of Conor Menzies, Henry hutchinson and the fiery tongan 'hosea' will be hoping to make amends this year together in the opens for view, would be great to see how they go.

he will not have any chance of making the 1st XV, he barely got game in the 16A's, played in and out due to various gym related injuries and now may make a possibility of making the 3rd XV.

Newfit is basically an all round fitness program that was formerly named after the hit fitness craze called 'crossfit'. It runs throughout winter and summer, but had recently become a popular alternative for boys who are wanting to make a 1sts team in the winter or summer and need the fitness in...

i do agree with your thoughts, if such sports as winter tennis, golf, 'newfit' (basically a school based fitness program for boys who are scared to take a tackle), volleyball, basketball and water polo. Such sports at new that have recently not been as good or have relied on scholarships such as...

now that the HOTR is over, all can be said is the amount of 1st XV representation within the 1st VIII's from each respective school. I know for a fact that this year, Newington's 1st VIII only had 1 boy (ZR) who could've potentially been in the 1st XV this year and played 2nds last year. Would...
