DETAILS RE BARKER COLLEGE VS NUDGEE COLLEGE Game to be played 10 September 2022 at Nudgee College. Game to be streamed with full coverage on Stan Sport (massive news). I assume the game will be an afternoon game but they haven't announced a time yet.

Mate I'll fill you in, it is confusing though. There are 3 main comps, GPS which is the premier comp and fields the most talent, CAS who have 3 very talented schools and then 3 not so talented schools who every once in a while field decent teams, and then the ISA, who is weaker than the other 2...

That's very interesting regarding the AFL season. I did not know the GPS and CAS were combined. If they can do it for one sport, they can certainly do it for rugby.

Yes. And I'm clarifying. Joeys weren't invited.

My friend, Joeys didn't pull out. The ARU didn't ask Joeys. They invited Barker after originally planning to invite Joeys, but changed their mind. And yes. The GPS going back to home and away is bad for rugby. And the GPS' unwillingness to negotiate and work with the CAS and ISA in the name of...

100%. Bring back the Waratah Shield. Rugby can only benefit from it.

I unfortunately am not 100% sure about either. I believe the game is on the 10th. Also heard that it was going to be streamed on Stan, but couldn't find anything online about it. Will report if I hear more.

Agreed. Proud of a lot of the CAS schools trying to better rugby in their own different ways. Even if we as critics think they could do it differently/better. Would be easier if all schools could agree. That is the biggest obstacle.

Hi all, Barker College is heading to Brisbane in the next few weeks in what will be a clash of two of the greatest 1stXV programs in Australia (arguably the two best of the last 5 years, with a few worthy competitors). What is the Nudgee team like this year?

Assuming you are insinuating that a Joey's game would have been more difficult for Nudgee, the 20-point Barker win at Joeys says otherwise. As does the 5 Barker wins vs Joeys in the last 6 years.

Hi all, Barker is heading to Nudgee College in Brisbane in the next 2 weeks, fully funded by the ARU. It should be a great game. Interestingly enough the ARU had initially contacted Joeys but changed their mind last second and invited Barker instead. RedOrDead
