Souths definitely have the forward pack to finish on top. Thought they lacked fitness when I saw them play in the first half of the season, were very good for the first 20 mins , but faded quite dramatically as the game went on. Get them firing for the full 70 minutes and they will be very hard...

Don't know the story behind Ikitau and Noah , but Pasitoa was offered a Reds contract . Have heard it was basically the same terms that he accepted with the Brumbies. Got to remember he showed up here as a 16 year old from WA, not exactly a diehard Qlder and must like what he sees down in Canberra.

Basically the GPS headmasters backed the Academy pathway. The Schools and Academy pathways up here in Qld are not aligned . Quite a pity really, would have been good to see something similar to what has happened in NSW.

^ Haven’t the Reds already signed him ?

Cracking team put forward by TSS , will NC show their hand before Rd 1 ?

Yes please......next we will having him play 10. Give him some development time without the pressure of being seen as a playmaker. Just let the lad run !!!

Yep agree, also Peteia , but hopefully he is moving more towards RWC!

When is the NRC U19 played? Still time for players coming back from injury to impress? Tom Van Der Schief back this week from ankle surgery would be at least in the discussion if gets back to the level he was at last year. Torah Moe has been in prems for UQ , would like to see him against...

Yep , next three weeks could possibly set up the minor premiership for Souths. SB , Brothers and then UQ will be a tough ask , but win them and top spot is theirs . That is basically the top 4 right there, just a matter of order. GPS probably the biggest surprise for me , hopefully can find...

Carozza rode shotgun for him during the Qld Country NRC days , McGahan was fresh up from losing the HC position at the Rebels to Wessels.

Tony McGahan and Paul Carozza

^ Previously used the 3 x 3 trials at the one venue to justify who should get picked in the GPS Rep teams which no longer exists. Wouldn't read too much into the form. NC lost to both GT & Churchie last year's second 3 x 3 trial , which lead one poster to claim it the weakest NC First XV he...

Happens in Super Rugby as well , reserves often being the first to congratulate the try scorer. Probably limited space at most venues for the reserves to warm up anywhere else but the in goal . Think as long as they are wearing a bib of some description to identify them as not actively playing...

Could include Josh Nasser and Kye Oats back from Aussie U20s for UQ, Eadie definitely gone for the season with an ACL.

Throw in Aussie U20 players and that list gets bigger.

Walker written up in the Courier today as well, the Roosters reckon he will play NRL as an 18 year old. Is he playing 10 at IGS?

Any updates on how Kerevi's arm pulled up ? Heard initial concern of it being an injury to the bicep he had repaired, might become and well timed "rest".

Agree Happyman, pity he didn't get a run on Sat night, would have liked to see how he went . Thought they might have given him a crack when CFS came off in a straight swap of positions , but went for DP to 12 and Samu out one where he was not as influential IMO. Kerevi really has developed...

It will come across as sour grapes I know, holy fuck the Tahs got the rub of the green tonight. Was there and in real time it looked at times that throwing the ball forward was the norm, why do we even have touchies ? (Sorry assistant refs). Must have been killing Angus not to blow his whistle...

They have been missing for a couple of weeks now haven’t they ? When did they last play?
