This post is totally off topic. This is from Armidale Friday night, part of the New England/Central North Secondary Comp! It's brought the other Armidale schools back into rugby or into rugby for the first time. TAS boys are not participating although the girls are. It is apparently secondary...

They will be chuffed and especially because Joey's lost! That 2 point buffer over Joey's is pretty important.

Very interesting, CB. One side effect of the pre-season is that I am now following ISA. A few days ago i found myself trying to explain the ISA comp to someone who knew nothing about them! Who would have thought?

Am I right in thinking (remembering?) that this means Gregs have done a little better than your expected?

Newington 3rds play other thirds and sometimes higher pre-season. Not quite sure who they play during the formal comp.

Just for the record, these are the results of the other TAS Scots games: Tas Seconds v Scots fifths. Scots won 32-10 TAS 16As v Scots 16Bs. Scots won 36-0 TAS 15Bs v Scots 15Bs, TAS 15As were not playing. Scots won 29-24 TAS 14As v Scots 14Bs Scots won 45-7 TAS 14Bs v Scots 14Ds. TAS won 41-32...

It sure does. Well done Grammar! I will comment on the TAS match in a second, but first does anybody have any other thirds results including High v Kings? Thanks for the ScotsvTAS program CJ. Will be interested to see if your reactions to the match are the same as mine. As the 34-0 nil score...

Now that's a flash of unexpected local expertise, Joker! Moxon's is indeed famous for their pies. I think the St Kilda now has the cheapest pub meals. As to pub crawls? Now would I do/have done that?! :) I'm not sure what TAS has at the grounds, now. The last time I was there was an OB weekend...

Thank you. They will need it. I was the one sidetracked. I laughed to myself applying this to Joey's rugby. "You probably know turmeric as the main spice in curry. It has a warm, bitter taste and is frequently used to flavor or color curry powders, mustards, butters, and cheeses." And Joker's...

And I thought the discussion was about Joey's rugby :(

For the benefit of TAS supporters, this is the game list for tomorrow. It's a smaller number of teams than usual ind the level mix is different. Presumably this reflects Scot's other games. I hope that the smaller number of TAS teams is not a sign for the future. I am going to try to make this...

I posted this earlier today to the GPS thread. Because of the broader pre-season trials which means so many of the teams played ISA, I thought that it might be of interest. GPS Thirds Preview Saturday sees the opening of the GPS Thirds competition, won last year by Joey’s thus opening a lead...

As CJ knows, I have now posted my preview on the GPS site. However, thought that I would post here as well given CJ's post. One of my difficulties this year with the broader pre-season trials is lack of CAS knowledge especially below the firsts, making it difficult to judge some results. GPS...

Big :)

Thanks, UtG. :) I hope Shore does ok. That's interesting re View. That may make the team stronger, but perhaps not depending on how they mesh with the others.

GPS Thirds Preview Saturday sees the opening of the GPS Thirds competition, won last year by Joey’s thus opening a lead over TAS in the premiership total. It’s shaping as an interesting contest with a number of unknowns. The leading contender Like last year, St Joseph’s has to be classified...

Indeed! :) My thanks. High looks good this year, but not that good.

Thank you

Hi DaSchmooze. I will write a proper reply because it is a very interesting (and important) question. The short answer is that it' been a considerable success. Mist importantly, it's given boys from smaller rugby schools (smaller in terms of numbers. not commitment or contribution) the chance to...
