Sad for Wood if that's true. I think he's in for a very big year. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Naawi was the fastest ever U16 100m runner to pass through Nudgee's halls. If he's pipping James O'Connor, Shipperley, Joe Tomane and Willie Malala at that age then I'd be surprised there's no spot...

SOLE, I should have clarified - Hosea is on a Rebels contract but the remainder are signed with either the Cowboys (Asi, Gilbert); Titans (Dowd, Gerrard) and Broncos (Bullemor, Stevens, Tautau) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's a bit rough for anyone with tickets to the Reds :(

Way to get the ball rolling! One thing to consider is how many of these boys have Rugby League contracts that prohibit / exclude them from selection. Trevor Hosea, Ethan Bullemor, Hoani Ford-Stevens, Reno Gerrard, Tom Gilbert and Max Dowd are all professional athletes, as are Bailey Tautau...

Sadly I was out of the country last weekend so didn't get to watch any games at TSS. Once I get to see a few more trials I should be able to have a better crack (not just select on rep) Speaking of which, I'm planning on heading down to Wests for BBC v BSHS this Friday. Here are the details...

Looking forward to hearing some reports from this weekend. I'm away and not sure if I'll be able to find tape to watch.

I've just spotted the Queensland Rugby League U15s A and B sides for this year. 10/40 of these boys are already at GPS schools, but I wonder just how many more will be come Seasons 2018/2019. 2017 15 Years Queensland Maroons Team Rixson Andrew, Coombabah State High School/SOUTH COAST Joshua...

Must be that time of the year... Welcome to the 2017 class of GAGR trolls. SOLE, if memory serves me correctly then Soli was a distributing centre, playing outside the crash and bash of Tom Gilbert in the QLD U15s of a few years back. I would have presumed #10 to be a natural fit for his...

Unfortunately I haven't had the chance to watch Nudgee yet. I'm sure you're right and there will be plenty of new faces in the First XV come the trials. I should have a clearer picture closer to the season. Grammar's a little tough.. I have it on good authority there is a new scrumhalf...

I'll have a crack at a Nudgee team. New imports would throw a spanner in the works, but this could be similar to how they line up. 1. Tom Forde 2. ? 3. Phransis Sula-Siaosi 4. Mitch Wood 5. Harrison Cannon 6. Ethan Bullemor 7. Alex Colvin 8. Bailey Tautau 9. Phoenix Hunt 10. Xavier Soli 11...

Edited in surnames for clarity, but I haven't heard of these other guys SOLE334. Who are they?

At Nudgee, coaches are officially considering moving 2016 No.8 Joe Small to #12 but no final decision has been made. At TSS, I've gotten confirmation that Tautau Kapea has left the school in ugly circumstances - and not entirely his own fault it would seem. He has since moved back to powerhouse...

Sadly for the comp Tautau Kapea has headed home to New Zealand's Hamilton Boys High this year. He was the $1.50 MVP favourite in my opinion. Hopefully we'll see him again playing for the NZ Schoolboys later this year! I have conflicting information. Will find out what's actually going on In...

Just spotted an interesting team sheet from back in 2015. The South Coast U15’s won the Queensland Secondary Schools Rugby League Grand Final 30 – 4 in 2015. These were some of the names in the squad. Phransis Siaosi (Nudgee) Ronan Kapi (Southport) Daejarn Asi (Brisbane Grammar) Dennis Waight...

http://www.betootaadvocate.com/sports/local-dad-whimpy-son-says-polynesian-kids-play-older-age-groups/ Overprotective local dad, Angus Harvey-Ross, believes the fact that his son is not good at contact sports should be resolved by legislating against the inclusion of stockier Samoan and Tongan...

Ended up going down 10-0 in what was a pretty miserable game of rugby. Reserve #10 Matt Lo Grande looked pretty handy and centre Lachlan Barazza was the only real backline threat in the second half. Terrace's second half scrum was absolutely brutalised, but it looked like they sured up when...

The Kiwis, Fielding Boys High, were on the fourth and final game of their tour, playing against TSS, TGS and one more in addition to GT. Terrace ran two teams, one for the first half and one for the second. Only two run through sessions beforehand and the big stars (Wilson, Ford-Stevens...

BGS kids from North Queensland tell me they were stunned he wasn't already aligned with the Cowboys. Apparently it just didn't make sense that they had other boys in their program and not Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow. A good year in the First XV may change that - NRL U20s programs keep close eyes on...

Tomorrow as in 5:00pm Thursday? Excellent. I'll need a bit of First XV action to wash out the sour taste of watching soccer played on No.1 Ovals this term. I was a front rower Warrenwobble, fractions hurt my brain. I'd punt on BSHS going back to back at $21 odds though, while BBC are never...

When 19-year-old Izaia Perese was in line for his Reds debut a few weeks ago, a Rugby.com.au journo asked him who were his big influences growing up. Perese went red, looked down at his feet and admitted under his breath that he'd actually not watched any rugby union at all before starting at...
