    The only team that might get close to the TSS 2nds are the TSS 3rds. TSS and Nudgee and daylight third for the 1st's, and my intel is shakey at best.

    The good players from the BSHS 14 A's don't get off the train at Vulture St station anymore, they now get the bus to Gregory Terrace. However you are right I may have pushed them too far down.

    I am going to have a go at 16 A's and 15 A's this season. Just so I have it in writing, if I am correct at the end of the season, for potential gloating purposes only. BBC Nudgee TSS GT TGS Ipswich BSHS Grammar Churchie And 15 A's GT BBC TGS Ipswich Nudgee TSS BSHS Churchie Grammar

    How generous and compassionate of GT to take these poor, discontented young lads into their arms. Very Christian, and what a stroke of good luck that they all happened to land on GT's front door together, each overlooking any other potential rugby school. Quite fortunate for all parties concerned.

    OK well in that case the season is their's to lose. Congrats GT, might have to do a couple sessions in confession for breaking the rules, but all will be forgiven. Nothing surer, if anyone knows the loop holes of how to sin and get away with it, it's the Catholics, and of course then...

    I heard this week that a number (4) of players from this years BSHS under 15's have recently moved across to GT on scholarship. I am somewhat suspect of the integrity of the information, however like all rumours there is always a mustard seed of truth. GT were on the rise last year and I think...

    Agree, as far as forwards were concerned the 6 was outstanding. Enormous work rate. A very enjoyable game.. It was a breath of fresh air in an environment where broader news is happy to talk about the slow disintegration of Australian rugby. I came away from the game feeling enthused about...

    Do you know if this can be lived streamed?

    Forgive me if I am asking a question with an obvious answer. How is the GPS rugby draw calculated each year? The last round of the previous season becomes the first round of the new season? Thanks in advance.

    Agree 100%, self interest and self preservation will prevail. No question. Anyone who doesn't believe that is guileless and dewy - eyed.

    Very interesting, so I see the only way out is that Toowoomba Grammar plays the imports, irrespective of them being good or bad. Who ever selected those boys will be motivated by self preservation to make sure they are in the side. Am I incorrect on that view?

    Massive Talent!! I would check the Cowboys signing, different to what I have heard.

    Realist as the resident expert up there on the hill, how do the TGS squad look this year?

    Your first point I have no argument, we are a nation where league and union will always compete for the same type of athlete, league tends to be more aggressive in nature in procurement . We can only hope the ARU does a better job of holding onto the players that are nurtured in the GPS system...

    GPS schools are hardwired to exceed and excel in all areas of their curriculum , this is why people send children to them. Excellence in the arts, the academic world and on the sporting field is of upmost importance. This is why they offer scholarships into those areas, they want the best, it...

    Human nature would suggest the one you pay more for is your preference in any case. Like comparing Foie Gra to Pate, most people like them just the same, but one is expensive so you pretend you like it more. Those scholarship boys will make the squads, no question. This is life.

    Very sad and heartbreaking for those boys, I am surprised it is happening at TGS, to this extent. BBC maybe. This is life however, and if not rugby then the workplace.

    I have heard about the BGS 10, however my information is that he is an Australian Under 16 touch player and in fact in or has just been in NZ with the under 16 team. I don't think he is cowboys signed. BGS from my understanding have recognised his outstanding ability but are somewhat concerned...

    Has anyone got any insight into the upcoming 1st XV squads for TGS and IGS for this season?
