Is there a table somewhere showing points and for/against?

Excellent. I think Minogue is a quality player and should be named in the Pres A team tomorrow.

I reckon Aloys may have felt they had a point to prove after only one A player selected in CAS u16s.

Knox 16As over Cranbrook circa 29-6. Does that now leave K and W level at the top of the 'table' with one loss each?

Joeys over View circa 35 to 19

I'm flattered you credit me with that much influence W88:-). I heard Flaherty was badly concussed in 1sts match for Barker last Fri. Hope he recovers well.

Good Qs HJ. With no horse in the 18s race I have no idea, but like the idea there is some sort of pathway for the lads at this age who are not playing Colts/grade. Your observations though suggest disappointingly that this pathway may not be limited to that group.

Syd team lists are up for u14s, u17s and u18s: http://www.nswjuniors.com.au . Congrats to all boys selected. Enjoy the experience and hopefully you'll pick up a few useful tips from your coaches along the way.

CCC will be strong, containing half of the starting team who just won the u16s JSC with Parramatta: see post #52 here: http://www.greenandgoldrugby.com/community/threads/nsw-ccc-rugby-2015-2016.15258/page-3#post-843732

As manager for a strong A Div team last year I saw 3 rep level kids who know how to tackle have their season ended by serious injury when playing against very large opposition. It's not a skill issue, its simple physics - the kid who weighs 90 - 110+ kg and runs the 100 in 11.4 crashing into...

Yep. Chat 26 June Btw, I'm not related in any way. Just a long time observer.

Major upset here at u16s with Central Coast over ACT 17-7 to make the GF. In other semi Parra over Gordon 18-12. CC v Parra at 2pm

fair enough- got prompted by having spent the day at the U16s JSC where the incredulity at his omission was universal

I heard he was given 15 mins by the Nth H coach, who was from Barker and had a match to plan for v Waves the next day. Typically selectors would go to several games over the 5 rounds and pencil in selctions. The official trials would normally be used to confirm initial views on selection and...

@ABC, Agree with everything in your post except the 'not culture' point - I'd suggest that the 'put team before self' bit which has contributed so much to J and K success is at the very centre of their respective rugby cultures.

Think you might want to read my post again, especially the part where I say no issue with a number of dual code lads being talented rugby players.

Thx SDW. Updated above Just for interest sake, Reimer - Gordon Reps since u10s / Syd u14s and JGC Nths and NSW 2014 / Syd and NSW u15s 2015. Not good enough for CAS u16s 2016?!

Our opening volley predictably a bit rusty vs them coming off 6N win. 4 tries to 3 no disaster given penalty count and goal kicking. Think we'll regroup pretty well before next week.

Never thought I'd live to see eddy jones and Mark Ella jubilant over poms beating the wobs

A couple of good wins by Gordon in the u16s today over Sth Districts and Hunter. ACT and Parra also looking strong. The semis and final on Monday should be well worth the M2 toll for anyone heading out to Blacktown.
