I wonder what has changed because I swear he's been offered NRC roles before but turned them down. Apparently was happy with his job and just coaching UQ. Who knows

pretty rough on that terrace side. To say 'the rest were ordinary' in a team that beat your sons side would imply something about the BSHS side itself, which is a strong outfit. Please refrain from taking those sort of shots.

It is a fact that they have the best facilities. That is just plain fact. Yes they have 3 or 4 kiwi boys who came from a school which isn't even well known so I'd put that down to recruiting. Wests have plucked players from left, right and center to put together this squad and for you to say...

What are everyone's thoughts on Hewera?

Geez this is a great round of rugby. Baring the TSS v BSHS game, I have a feeling they will be close. This season is shaping up like almost a 6 horse race. Let the games begin.

Yep agreed. If Simmons could capture that performance from the reds game and do that every week, god he would be so great to have. As it stands he can't and I still don't see Carter having that impact that we need/Cheika wants. Arnold and Coleman for me

I agree. You pick the best side available, we don't have the luxury of 'bloody players'. It is a national side. The best side should be selected

Could well be. They have struggled majorily and have always hat a connection with bshs. Must be a 4 way race for Moses with Wests, Sunnybank, UQ and Souths all in the running. What wouldn't suprise me if Wests attract a high amount of talent this year. Their great recruitment of last year has...

I know they played a couple of trial games at the club and the whole front row were extremely impressive. Maybe someone saw that potential?

What draws you to Moses Alo-Emile to Wests? Is there history there

You do realise that that is actually the opposite of paying players. You invest in your club and players come because of it's quality. Wests is now one of the most sustainable rugby clubs around AUSTRALIA and most definitely Brisbane. Every club has contacted them in a search to try replicate...

Anyone have a predicted/speculated 23?

I think his point is that our development system is flawed as a whole due to the player market in Australia. In NZ, they can afford to send these guys back to club rugby to develop them and actually select the very best players for the year.

One of the worst performances by a Queensland schoolboy side I have ever seen. Very individual in the way the played and a few passengers within the 23. Multiple occasions were wasted when the last pass needed to be thrown and it was not, changing what should've been a 40/50-0 scoreline to 17-3...

You don't have to be 200cm's tall to be a good super rugby lock...

Who the heck is the fullback from combined states? That kid is going somewhere

Josh Nasser is also not on this list and he played 20's last year. I'm hopeful that Jordan Petatia is the only one straight out of school. Wallis should be picked but I think Fenner is off to the Brumbies

point taken

No I've been looking everywhere too it seems thast the QRU haven't published a single thing about this side. Very disappointed

I've heard they're bringing in u18's and u20's. If you're first year out of school you will be u18's and those two years out and three years out are u20's. The idea behind it is the jump from u19's to mens rugby is one many young bodies a having trouble with.
