BGS v BSHS - State High will win this game with their eyes closed. All season Grammar's defence has been putrid, conceding 49.6 per game. State High's physical forwards and electric outside backs will only make that number worse as they begin their 'finals' push in earnest. State High to win...

Any news on when Paddy Ryan, Folau Fainga'a and Tom Robertson will appear for Country? Add in Tolu Latu and that will be a very strong front row unit at this level

I think NSW Country will deal Brisbane City a pretty heavy loss here. A young and inexperienced 9-10-12-15 combination for City and a weaker-than-usual forward pack up against a very strong looking Country team. Bookies have Country at $8.50 to win the comp, but that'll drop very quickly...

That could well be the single-worst dad joke of all time. It's up there in "pull the finger" and "Hi Hungry, I'm dad" territory. Let's not forget Chris Sautia played an incredible hand in Souths' finals push in 2015. If not for him, Souths don't win and he certainly didn't accomplish that by...

I haven't watched a game of Rugby League in quite a while, but there seems to be some pretty passionate hatred of this bloke...

Some of the comments on GPS Rugby News highlights: "He looked alright in his school days.. has gone downhill very quickly though" "Never thought I'd see a video called LM highlights!" "This is the single greatest day in Rugby League" "Broncos are now favourites to win the Premiership"...

Sometimes when it's right in front of your nose you just don't see it. There's three right there - Blackhurst and Cornelsen from TSS, Greene from ACGS, in 2010 and 2011. In Greene's case I think it's prudent to note that he left Churchie after years of cruel and systematic bullying, so he...

Lachlan Maranta has officially committed to the Queensland Reds, as of three minutes ago. Chris Garry broke the news on Twitter

You did too. Sorry, didn't notice that. Regardless, aren't we agreeing with each other? I was making the point that while it has happened, it's very rare. Certainly not common. Re: Ben Meehan, that's very interesting. If anyone else can add in more please do!

Au contraire, Quick Hands. There are just two schools in the GPS at the moment who aren't competitive. Both have imports, just possibly not in the right positions to swing their fortunes. At the top end of the competition, there are four teams tied for first place on the ladder and last week...

Player movement between the schools is not exactly common, nor is it restricted to any one school Ben Tarr went from BBC First XV 2011 to TSS First XV 2012 Matt Forsyth went from BGS First XV 2013 to GT First XV 2014. Benroy Sala went from BSHS U15s in 2011 to two years in the BBC First XV...

Wanna trade? I think Reg was pretty close to what Cheika is going to name. I reckon this will be the team we roll out in Wellington 1. Slipper will undoubtedly come in for Sio. 2. While TPN would probably add some sting in attack and defence, the lineouts were the bigger cause for concern...

I've also got an extended interview with State High coach Sione Fukofuka that we won't be able to use fully in the story. What's the mood in the changing rooms like at the moment? Ecstatic. The boys know how important that win was. Especially after last week, where Ippy really took it to...

First XV match reports are on the front page. Game of the Round: BSHS 13 d BBC 12 IGS 32 d TGS 31 http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/qld-gps-r6-the-first-of-five-to-fall/

I wasn't far off, was I :O

Just got confirmation that Queensland Schoolboys winger Willie Malala will return from a hamstring this week for Nudgee College. Going to be an exciting match against Southport!

On a positive note, it was great watching ex-Nudgee Australian Sevens rep Damon Murphy referee a thrilling IGS v TGS clash on the weekend. Damon showed great judgement for when to hold off blowing the whistle, which is a great skill in refereeing IMO. Just one or two head-scratchers, which is...

Debate all you like about the First XV, but I'm disinclined to believe OTT praise of Borger. His mates have been pumping him up very hard all through this thread. If he's reading this, I'd tell them to chill out - let other supporters figure out what you're about. I've just been handed the...

You're the God of GPS Rugby, Sage :P I did call TGS to win by 3, and most of the posters here disagreed with me. If Oates kicks the pretty routine penalty, they win by 2. I'll come back strong next week, I promise. God I hope Nudgee and GT decides the Premiership. That would top BGS v NC in...
