Qld selectors and coaches got it 99% right.King was closer with his picks before the trial than after the trials !Reality that in QLD 1 everyone had selected the whole forward pack except for 7 (when Xavier T got injured-Small moved to 6). Kibble played his way in -so the forward pack was as...

Very well put. As for the BBC i hear they really had no choice but to row. Only one was in first 8 and the others were swanning around in lower crews. lets face it - props with short arms are not the best shape to row. Changes next year I understand . A lot of pressure to win the Head of River...

You cannnot have a School of Origin from grade 8 (or even grade 10) because we (TSS) and Nudgee will not have enough original boys left over for an A team!!!

I am hearing there are more injuries in GPS 1-with a few boys (forwards) not able to train this Sunday.

Gee they must have improved a lot because in 2015 BBC & BSHS both put over 50 on MCA -and that was in May (with MCA ready to start AIC comp and BBC/BSHS playing their first trial match)

I'd say there are a log jam of middle teams and only 2 real front runners with BBC pushing hard from behind BBC .?Really ?? with that pop-gun backline of midgets? Yes next year -I agree. I hear their star number 8 is wearing a sling -did not play Friday & will not play this weekend.

. That is why I like you King. you never let the heart rule the head

My take

Really tells us what everyone has been predicting. Where and when do NC play TSS in the GPS? Seems that may be the grandfinal.

I find myself agreeing with you- but after watching the Utube of last week I would describe the BBC pack as "big and mobile".Probably 2nd biggest after TSS >they will have the tallest player in the comp. With Xavier T they will have a 6 bigger than most locks.If they keep that pack on the field...

Good to hear from you WW As usual-everything you say makes sense. But I cannot see how TSS is vulnerable- essentially have a about 25 1st xv standard players. Watched the Terrace (aka)Sunnybank 14 A team play on Sunday at Sunnybank. Wow- very good. Imagine if GT had a boarding house.! Do they...

The 16's for TGS will be interesting to watch. They had 7 U16 imports they gave a run to yesterday, another 2 played in the firsts. I think they are close to settling on their forwards but I think the backs are still a big unknown. They tried multiple combinations yesterday and are probably none...

Churchie 13 should have stood out- he played Aussie Schools last year. I was impressed with Churchie forward pack- the 2 new boys from last year had blinders especially the lock from Mackay .

Agree does the 13 have a twin at 15 ( sometimes at 12) ? Both very good

TSS under 15/16 is like a box of chocolates- you never know what you will get/ who you will find -until round1. But it is fair to say we will not have as many new boys as last year(where we had 6 or 7) and the new boys are not as good as last year.So lets talk about the 2nds were TSS should win...

Has anyone seen the 2017 version of trivial pursuit? There is a new question in sport? Q-which revered rugby school that has spent 2 decades ridiculing other schools with a pios pout, about importing players(particularly PI boys) -has just set a new GPS record for new rugby boys arriving at the...

King Re Nudgee team . where is the new Fijian boy ? He is a certainty. Plus 3 RL boys from Wavell-at least 1 (the biggest) will make it.

[ At TSS, I've gotten confirmation that Tautau Kapea has left the school in ugly circumstances - and not entirely his own fault it would seem. He has since moved back to powerhouse Hamilton Boys High in NZ in a major blow for Southort. For an early team prediction, TSS may line up: 9. Jim...

Trajedy - the 77 tour just had its 40 year reunion. Didnt Pulver's son go on last tour .?

Sorry to say -that you are correct.Rather unfortunate circumstances for the poor lad.
