Thanks HJ! That was a cracker that day - The Bye had a real go! I for one will be following The Bye's progress closely as the season unfolds - who knows, they may make it back!! :)

Good luck to all the boys involved in athletics this weekend! :)

Any loss of wood is a concern! I'm sure the Students will deal with it!! ;)

Lee is the Man! I did one report last year at Kings and it bloody near finished me - very intense when you're not just swanning about ( as I was when I reported on Newington vs. The Bye in 2012! ). Seriously - good luck with it! Looking forward to some actual footy ( as everyone can tell from...

That's one of the big drivers CBS ( the sesquicentenary ) - the sense of tradition and you've got to love it! It would be a massive occasion for all the boys involved and the schools, and the GPS comp in a holistic sense! I hope it goes ahead!!! :)

Never mind the above CTPE - I'm worried about you Mate! I think we'll have to start calling you "Sybil" ! From Crouch, touch, pause ,engage to : crouch, touch, set to now: Crouch, BIND, set! No wonder there is an identity crisis! Please advise if you will go with the IRB and change your...

That's the scuttlebutt CTPE but I had heard earlier that one of the teams involved had bailed??? I will consult GPSrow for the inside goss! BTW - I also congrat GPRrow for getting the gig as the reporter from the Newington side of the fence! This comes with a lot of responsibilty and I know...

Ah Berserker! I agree - watch them flick a pass at the baton change and then sidestep into someone else's lane! That would improve the times!!! Ah - what the hell! Put 30 of them out there with one footy and see what happens!!!! :D

Gotta love the "weasel word"! At risk of upsetting the grammar and language critics - this has to be one of the all time greats! Even now I hear the kids referring to "weaseling" around their mothers strict rules, or "weaseling in" to some situation or other! And who could forget Foghorn...

Sounds like me! :(

Thanks for clearing that up! :)

I thought last years CJRU U/15's beat City - they were a gun side! Still selected 2 : 1 to City. I am on firmer ground with the U/16's 2 years ago where City and Country played a gripping draw ( 22 all or something ) and NSW selection went - you guessed it - 2 : 1 to City.

OK - point taken! I was just trying to put into context the selection of only 2 players fom Illawarra in the CJRU U/16's against 11 in the U/17's. Kudos to Central Coast as well! Just wait until City vs. Country though - here's my tip based on past experience : selections will go 2 : 1 in favour...

Hard to pick a lot from Illawarra U/16's as they lost both their pool games and finished 5th overall at Country Championships. Illawarra U/17's won the championship convincingly and had 11 picked as a result. Hard to argue! :)

Fair enough too! Good to see as many boys as possible taking part in the lead up carnivals and then at the AAGPS championships on the 11th!

Intensive internal stuff ( including over the recent holidays ) but no actual trial games! I believe that even this weekends trial against Oakhill has been trumped by athletics with many potential 1st's & 2nd's players unable to play due to athletics committments! The following week is AAGPS...

This is shaping up to be an interesting encounter in Round 1 - View at home to Newington! I understand that New have a trial against Oakhill this weekend then a break ( AAGPS Athletics )until they play Kinross at the end of May. Given View's solid preparation maybe New will be a little...

LMAO BW! Good one - I'm searching for that forum now!!!!:)

Duly noted and Gonski IS! :)

I don't think GPSrow's post really deserved this vitriolic response, nor did BW need the knee jerk reaction back. The idea about posing potential teams is fraught with differing opinions. Other than Vasilis and Mitchell ( who have both been mentioned in dispatches on this thread and would...
