It will be interesting to see if 2nd Grade gets used as a stepping stone for some of the U20’s . Last year GPS had John Downs playing Colts 1 then 2nd Grade to help progress his scrummaging . Certainly his scrummaging improved over the season. Held his own against a strong Brothers front row...

Harry played juniors at Brothers and went to school at Terrace , you could almost piss down wind to the Brisbane CBD from both places.

Also have a couple like Fred Fewtrell and Zac Crothers ( Easts ) and Tom Kibble ( GPS ) who have already played heaps of Prem grade

Tom Van Der Schyff (UQ) Zane Nonggorr ( Bond ) Spencer Jeans ( Bond ) Dion Samuela ( where ever he ends up playing, most likely Bond ) Josh Fluke ( Brothers ) already played at least a couple of games including the GF last year

Andy Clark still at the Brumbies BJ ? He managed to “spot” a few of the class of 2018 .

I was at Wests last season when they put the cleaners through UQ and he kicked 10 from 10 that day , quite a few from difficult angles . Think at that stage he was 26 from 26 for the season

Thought the same when it happened, was screaming at the tv for an obstruction. No maul was formed and the ball carrier had two blockers bound to him and slightly in front of him . The “flying wedge” then bumped into ASY (Angus Scott-Young) on the way to the try line . The confusing issue was that the catcher in the...

The scrum penalty they earned when both TT and Nasser were in the bin showed just how dominant our scrum was . Smith moved to THP and they brought on Zander , had Jock Campbell packing in at 6 and won a penalty off an attacking Lions scrum on our 22. The scrum and attitude in defence was top...

It’s on rugby.com.au under videos .

He played very well running off Pasitoa who showed he is definitely up for senior footy in only his second game out of school. In fact , the whole Brumbies A backline looked like they had been playing together for years . Pat Mcabe was commentating and gave Positoa at 10 , Henry at 12 and the...

Poor discipline (again!) and poor field position due to poor/limited clearances cost us the game IMO. Pretty hard to win a game when you spend most of it defending in your own half. The odd moment of discipline aside, thought the starting forward pack were great. They were just cooked in the...

Just watched the replay of the Rebels A v Brumbies Runners waiting for the Reds to kick off . Heaps of young talent from both teams who have come through the Qld pathways plus a few guys from QPR , seems like a great opportunity for these fellas. It’s the second time they have played one...

Was planning on it , but the Tahs v Blues is putting me to sleep .

RA has no “ownership “ of the individual school comps . But they could have agreed to be involved similar to the way the Shute Shield and QPR have. Foxtel had interest in showing some GPS content a couple of years ago , but could not get all the GPS principals to sign off on it , suppose a...

TSS will be pissed , turf war imminent, duelling guns at dawn ........

Beale at 12 ? Feel sorry for the new defence coach already!

Emirates Airline Park = Ellis Park

Agree that the second half was frustrating, particularly the 10 minutes straight after half time . In front by 10 points and in a position to mount genuine pressure , but played like we were chasing points. Not sure though that the pushed passes and sloppy turnovers were the direction or fault...

Don’t think you can understate the importance of genuine game time . JP has spent more time in rehab in the last 12 months than he has playing . The recurring hamstring issues are a worry, missed his first crack at a Wallaby debut in late 2018 with a hammy tweak, same last year in the camp...

Having watched Harry play since he was running around at Terrace I can say that a couple of loose offloads a game is what you come to expect. Can be a source of frustration, but then again the ones that stick are brilliant. Guess it’s just a matter of showing a little patience and learning when...
