I would put it down to a variety of reasons which combined could explain it: 1. As I understand it both teams only played 2 trial games. Scots may have "clicked" better than Kings at this stage of the season. 2. Kings may have suffered some mental scars from the 71-19 drubbing they received...

That would do it

With the moniker you have, what did Scots do to make you such a bitter person?

I'm from the GPS side of the fence. From my reading of various posts, I'd be pissed off if I was the Barker guy that only made the reserves. As an Australian Schoolboy, Jones only had to lace up a boot and run on to make CAS 1's. You may not agree with it, but that's how it is. At least CAS...

Agreed. I'm sure he's been employed to improve the entire programme at Knox. in his first year he can only work with the cattle he's been given. The true appraisal will come in 2-3 years time when the systems he's implemented start flowing through the whole college. Why are Joeys so successful...

Despite the score, it was quite a scrappy game, which is understandable given the limited game time both teams have had. Kings never looked like winning it and Scots dropped a lot of ball. The score could've ended up like the game at Kings last year. in most games Scots followed the old...

Interesting that in those days the Shore 2nds had the reserve numbers 16-30

Correct. updated schedule on ASRU website. http://austschools.rugbynet.com.au/

Yes, but he played 1st grade last season in his first year out

True. Melrose played for Parramatta in their 1977 premiership and went on to captain the 1977/78 Schoolboys. The Ella brothers from that team went on to play first grade for Randwick in 1978

Will Miller. He's also in the Aussie 7's team

Other schools

Agree on the rowing, but recruiting for basketball, tennis, athletics, soccer and cricket is just a matter of going to rep canivals/tournaments similar to the rugby recruitment. I know for a fact that Newington put out feelers to district rep /NSW Cricket Academy players. GPS players can only...

Historically, the majority of the Newington Lindfield Prep Yr6 don't end up going on to Stanmore

I have no idea how many of the boys on that list are on scholarship/bursary/fee assistance/call it what you will, but it is common knowledge in GPS circles that Newington were looking to bolster teams in ALL sports for the sesquicentenary this year, with inducements being offered as far back as...

If he plays every Test in 2013, he'll finish with 12 caps, 1 ahead of Chris F-S and Hugh Roach. I'm including Irish U18 as a Test as the ASRFU has highlighted it on their website and in previous UK Tours it has had Test status even when Irish Schools have also been played. Any other returning...

No idea as to the identity of the Shore boy, but I have heard stories for years about a former Wallaby (didn't attend a GPS school, but a school in another private school association) who was on 'the juice' in his early post school years.
