I've just had a chat to a media guy at the Reds who said he hadn't even been briefed about it. Unlikely it'll go up on Reds.com tonight. Considering our friend qldRU suggested 7:30 tonight is the time it's released, before raging about Ponga missing out on AIC selections, I'm not sure how...

Want to hear a bold prediction? I bet Ponga won't even be selected for the bench of AIC 3 #rumormill #kingpicks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Terrace have already been made aware of the selections. Horan starts at 10 for GPS 1 Nikau Te-Rupe at 13 for GPS 2 Moroney on bench for GPS 2 Quilian Malak and Reuben Wall start for GPS 3 Leofa never made it to the second trial, George Cox had concussion issues, Roycroft misses out altogether...

A lot of Grammar Boy's pulled up sore after the GPS trials, particularly after becoming acquainted with PJ Van den burg it seems. Yes, Sly is out for an indefinite period of time after a bizarre injury prior to the trials, where it seems a touchie's flag poked him in the eye down on the Gold...

McReight to start at 12 while only in year 10, pushing Eddie McCorley to the wing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good to see Mondays Expert and GSP are both involved in the forums again this year. Should we be getting the popcorn ready? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

He could probably add a whole heap of BBC boys to that list as well, pretty minor representation for the 2014 favourites Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fantastic post, Linespeed. I know Gilmore grew up on the Gold Coast, but couldn't say if he went to TSS. He was an Easts player for some years, coached the QLD U16s before coaching TGS. After a year or two he got head hunted by Churchie. To replace him TGS brought in a a South African named...

Interesting. Is that based on second trial form? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

David Eagle is at IGS?? He's an absolute legend of Schoolboy Rugby in Queensland, he coached BSHS to a bazillion premierships, oversaw a program that produced Ed Quirk, Chris Sautia, Matt To'omua, Paul Alo Emile, and Curtis Browning as well as several dozen Australian Schoolboy reps. When Eagle...

Yeah I believe so. It looks like the players on the First XV are religious enough, though. Regardless of belief systems I quite like the idea. It'd be pretty hard to hold a grudge after a game after taking a knee and praying together. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just thought I'd leave this here.. BBC and IGS had a group prayer today, it's a nice touch for two schools to embrace each other like this after the game. Even though the game was one sided, there's some great sportsmanship here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Southport got a good write up in the match day program at the Wallabies Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe it's just too early and I'm not thinking straight, but I can't remember why Matt Forsyth would be ineligible to start for GT immediately. I grant that it's highly unlikely he's on some form on scholarship, but what makes his case different from any other stock standard import in to year...

Truer words were never said. Barker and Phillpots would have to be the best coaching duo in schoolboy rugby in Australia, so hopefully they'll be able to bring out some potential. I'm looking forward to getting a good look at him in the regular season. He's certainly being talked about Sent...

I get what you say, and you're probably right in regards to his shortcomings. However, defence, skills, discipline, attitude ("serial grabbing" is an attitude problem) and decision making can all be coached. Beyond weights, what can't be coached is size and speed. If a player has the body to...

While I agree that there are plenty of good centres going around with rugby experience, there hasn't been a back his size in the GPS competition as long as I can remember. On Tyler Campbell, I understand the depth in playmaking positions we have this year, but I thought his play merited at...

To the best of my knowledge, yes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
