    My son has now left, but for what it's worth my experience was different to Scots parent 1 I sent my son for the all round experience - academics, sport and Glengarry 2 I would say 50/50 overall but depends on the sport 3 Not my experience although in opens the lower grades have always been...

    2. 2. Scots however are a big recruiter – their 16A’s team this year was heckled by Scots own supporters – I have been told that many Scots full fee paying parents are disgusted by what has happened – some have told me 8 new boys this year, others have said 10!! All because historically that...

    Both Kamp and Nick Kellaway also played for Combined States. I think Cannell was the official NSW I captain but he missed all but the first game due to injury.

    NSW AAGPS Rugby 2013

    Scots won 28-26 well after the bell after being behind 26-14 with less than 2mins to go. Joeys had a chance to secure victory winning turnover ball (with entire team in the ruck) only for the half to throw the ball out instead of kicking it out, incurring a penalty (the half was obviously...

    Lloydies actually beat Scots in the final. I don't know how the other schools qualified but Scots and Lloydies made it by making the final of the Scots 7s. Given virtually the entire Scots 7s team from Easter is in the 1st XV, it will be interesting to see who backs up after Joeys on Saturday

    it's one thing to suggest enrolment procedures are not 100% above board, but to infer suspicious supplement use, especially in the current climate, is beyond the pale even for someone as vindictive as you THL. FYI, the Blackwatch doesn't sell any type of smoothie and doesn't even own a...

    Player 1 - NFI Player 2 - NFI Player 3 - Indigenous (the same rack the two catholic schools hang their hat on, which nobody seems to have a problem with) Player 4 - NFI Player 5 - Scots Prep By my count that's 3 out of 15 players with enrolment information that doesn't seem to meet the...

    Just a few thoughts - maybe he's mates with boys in one or both of the teams; maybe he was conducting a survey on which school's bbq has the best sausage sangers; maybe he thought, 'I'll go to View on Saturday and see if it gets the conspiracy theorists all worked up on G&GR' or 'I go to a...

    Greg Scott from Knox has been the NSW CIS primary rugby coach since at least 2006. There is no senior NSW CIS team. I don't see him pushing boys to Scots.

    Scots aren't angels but get your facts right. The majority >10 players started at Scots in year 7 or prep and AREN'T on scholarships. The same applies to the 2012 1st XV. as for the central database you refer to: Starkey - Started Year 7, 2nd generation, no scholarship Kellaway - Started...

    Disagree. From a Scots perspective, the 3rds will have played 7 from 9 games at the same venue as 1sts by the end of the season. I don't have a problem with that and I'm sure other schools would be similar. Travelling to TAS probably poses a few issues, but that's the price you have to pay and...

    I believe I have commented long ago on Messrs Skelly & Kelly and following LG's warning, this is not the place to dredge it up again. There is no et al. As I commented on the GPS Cricket thread, Scots lost one game, beat the eventual premiers by an innings and lots and were not premiers due to...

    No, they are the first 1st XV to have been at Scots since Blackburn started (ie they were in Year 7 when he started). FYI since year 7 IIRC they have finished no worse than top 3 (probably missed out in U15's)

    Scots should have a capital "S" and 15 should be "XV", but I don't want to be too pedantic.

    I did say Joeys were the benchmark and it clearly wasn't a great day for Scots. I'd like to know what percentage other schools achieve(d) against Joeys. Any win against Joeys is to be treasured. I know I never got one in 6 years and didn't even come close. To me a win against Joeys is akin to a...
