Knox have one U16 (second rower) in the firsts plus two other boys in the U16's who made NSW U15's last year (centre/winger and fullback). Aloys policy is not to play Year 10 boys in Opens. One was in NSW U15's last year (five-eight) and another who probably would have made it if not injured...

Snort is pretty much on the money as far as Aloys go. They have 145 boys per year and they are needed in as many co-curricula activities as possible. A perfect example is that 7 of the First XI will play in the First XV this year including 5 of the 7 backs this week. Academics is of course the...

Slugga - Chatswood were very content to finish playing club rugby at Under 15's as has been the case throughout their junior rugby careers and still enjoy one last year of rep rugby with Gordon when the pressures of playing 2-3 games each weekend become too much. Previous administrators had the...

This certainly proves no-one remembers who comes second. Looking at the CAS website nearly all results are there except the last round and I know Cranbrook beat Aloys in one of those games. Cranbrook had 8 wins, Aloys 5 wins and 3 no-results, Knox 5 wins and 2 no-results, 4 wins and 3...

No real reason other than I have discounted the effect of the Year 11's as they seem to be have been so equal over the years - and I have not seen them play! Agree Corias and Barkley-Brown are excellent players and I think they could easily finish third or fourth.

Having watched the current year 12's play over the years here are my thoughts on this year's CAS comp. Last year's U16's comp was very close with the exception of Waverley who had their 3 best players in the Firsts so the Year 11's should have a similar and significant impact for each school...

It would appear the rules are changing and players will need to play 4 games prior to the State Champs. This will put undue stress on players from GPS, CAS and ISA who will be required to play a school game on Sat (1sts, 2nds or 16A), a club game on Sunday morning (16A) and a rep trial in the...

I don't think anyone will be surprised that Sydney 15's absolutely punished the Japanese side - and they will do the same to Country who were beaten 49-0 by Gordon in a trial earlier this year. The question still remains why Semi finalists Norths have 9 players selected and 4 time State...

Kids leave a Village club and/or a District club because they are not satisfied where they are for a variety of reasons. Happy kids do not leave. They leave for better coaching, better rugby standard of teammates and better organisation. Basically they leave for a better rugby program. Some...

Of the 9 Norths (6 Hunters Hill) boys picked, only one was was picked by MNZ (selectors were the NSW coach and an ARU employee). The other 8 (including 5 backs) who made it came from the poorly performing Barbarians team at the Zone Championships. Gordon who have won 4 State Championships...

Agree that the ref at the Aloys v Trinity game was baffling at best. He was a 19 year old from Western Australia. Looking back at the game it must be difficult for Trinity to understand how they lost given the go forward their big forwards gave them. I think the problem was the No 10 was too...

Anyone watching Aloys this year would realise that Williams and Goodearl are absolutely essential to have in the team. Williams missed the first game because of a red card from the last game last year. Aloys are -4 for and against when he is on the field for the Trinity and 1st half of...
