    I hope so, Cash. I have only seen TAS play New so far, so I'm going to get to that game. But where is my bloody camera?!

    I'm inclined to go for TAS over Grammar just based on the fors and against, not my natural bias!

    ^^^^^ Thank you for this really great report. The Paul Barratt photo from the game that i posted earlier indicated the size difference. I'm glad that you enjoyed your trip to Armidale.!

    One of the things that we are all interested in is depth. We need depth if rugby is to succeed. One of the interesting things about Joker's results (my thanks, Joker) lies in the comparison between the TAS A and Joeys B teams. Last year and the year before there were some real blow-outs in...

    Joeys have it. They have three games which they should win. Grammar has two games. Even if they win against TAS, they can't do it. The fight now is for second place.

    Wonderful photo from Paul Barratt of the TAS v SJ game.

    Well done Joeys and thank you Joker for posting this. :) Obviously I'm sad that TAS lost, but it seems to have been a game in the GPS tradition.

    TAS backfield early this morning waiting for the start of the SJ matches. Nervous.

    I think the SJ v Armidale match will determine the thirds. Both TAS and SJ will lift if nerves don't get to them It's Old Boys Weekend, so there will be a big crowd. The match is a day highlight. There are local SJ supporters, but the local crowd will be pro TAS. However, SJ has sent eleven...

    Without wishing to prolong the discussion on Kings v TAS and the thirds comp, I wanted to make a few comments since I was concerned at initial reports. First, I checked the program and Kings seems to have sent ten teams. That's 150+ boys. I do not regard that as a no show on Kings part. It...

    Agreed. While I am a one-eyed TAS supporter, the TAS team has one task now. They MUST beat SJ in Armidale. Otherwise its all over red rover. That's not going to be easy.

    I wasn't being critical. By thirds, assume you mean the team that was meant to play against TAS thirds. Noticed that TAS thirds didn't have a game in the program. I guess that I can, more or less, understand about the Bledisloe. Sorry, I retract that. There is too much history here dating back...

    I can't comment on the accuracy of this. I wasn't there. The official program shows ten King's teams. Were there some no-shows? The games were clearly very compressed, with all games fitted into just over three hours, with the Thirds/Firsts playing at 10:15. The open King's boys started...

    Same score Kings TAS. But SJ now has some points scored against them!

    Any other thirds results out there?

    NSW AAGPS Rugby 2015

    That's certainly my feeling. Still, Iggies winning would be nice for the rest of us.

    That for and against is the thing that really hands out, QH. TAS is the only other team with a positive for and against. Accepting that boil-overs can happen and keep things interesting, that is why I think that the TAS v SJ game may be the deciding match in the Thirds comp. We will have a...

    On the thirds, if your prediction holds true, will open the comp up.

    As a Northern Tablelands' chap if now living in Sydney, my focus is on the the thirds. That said, that New v View match last week was an absolute blinder. My thanks for the youtube posts. Since I'm in a nostalgic mode, this is a photo of the TAS seconds in my last year at school. I was...

    Thank you for this, RCS. So my fragmentary impression wasn't far out.
