Bugger - thanks - but I meant Shore v Joeys. Sorry. .

Makes you wonder why they're not dominant in the firsts as they used to be. Actually, the Twos were not dominant, but they were probably the most impressive Joeys team the way they gutsed out wins in a few games against teams that looked to have a good as chance of winning as they did. By...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ If folks want to know about the NSW U20s selection procedure for 2016—first up there will be dozens of players in the first intake. It won't include many players still U/20 eligible in 2016 who they have already looked at for the 2015 U/20s. There will be few, if any...

As per programme only: 1. J. Behringer, 2. A. Crotti, 3. D. Fusimalohi, 4. I. Warfield (c), 5. J. Spooner, 6. M. Johnston, 7. L. Gibbs, 8. J. Lyons, 9. L. Collins, 10. T. O'Connor, 11. J. Patmore, 12. S. Sia, 13. J. Ashurst, 14, L. Ford, 15. A. Tse. Luke Osborne was terrific - though a...

The Mercy Rule kicked in at 40 points differential and they had to drop another for every additional 10 points. Joeys had 12 men at the end of the game and scored more than one try with that number. Watch out for winger Jake Patmore in the Ones next year. He was plagued by injuries and...

A very good player and mature beyond his years as a flyhalf. Unusually for a Aussie Schools flyhalf he is an adroit game manager, but there is a bit of size about him and he is not afraid to take the ball to the tackle line either. .

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ An outstanding analysis gowaratahs - I will bookmark this page to use the information in your post so I can sound like I know what I am talking about. Please update this from time to time. .

This hoo-haa about the Rays team is well-founded. I wrote in a blog early last year that there would be a host of matters that would be imperfect with the NRC competition, but give it five years. The Rays' situation is just one of them. For NSW teams the selection of squads and match day...

We eventually got a writer for the Kings v Riverview game - and he gave a short report. The final preview of Round 8 is here: http://goo.gl/caztkp Give it a click. .

Was anybody at the Kings v View game? Our rostered writer didn't respond and his backup was ready to write but couldn't make it to the match at the last minute. Could somebody please drop some information about the game or better still write a match report. Betterer stiller if two or three...

Oops bad mouse.

Never fear New fans; I'd warrant that you will have a good 1st XV in the years to come. .

We voted the try against Shore last year at Hunters Hill - at the 40 sec mark of the video - as the 2014 GPS try of the year .

I'm just back from a schools game but the FoxSports site had a couple of "This video no longer available" blanks. Anybody having luck in this regard at this time of the day - 7:30 pm? I thought you could access these games for a while afterwards, not just live. .

Can confirm he signed with Manly. He had an ACL operation on Tuesday and wouldn't have been playing for Oz Schools or the Youth 7s anyway. .

This is confirmed. .

I wrote last year in a pre-season blog that the NRC would be heaps better in five year's time than it would be in 2014. We can already see that players have been discarded from some 2014 teams and some coaches also. Whilst those things don't automatically indicate improvement it does signal...

There's a few that would come into consideration. I can speak only about the NSW lads who I have seen a lot of in the last couple of years. There are two outstanding scrumhalves in Harrison Goddard (Oakhill) and Theo Strang (Scots); I can't remember a year when NSW had two better schoolboy...

The injury to Clements was likely in one of the two tackles he was involved in, which I photographed. They are in the blog here. http://goo.gl/QPkqYM .
