http://austschools.rugbynet.com.au/verve/_resources/1224_resource%7B106396%7D.pdf “LOYALTY” AGREEMENTS As part of the provision of the total costs of tours, and as part of the educators of our players into the professional era, Australian Schoolboy Players now sign a ‘loyalty’ agreement...

I have been reliably informed that the New v Hills game will not go ahead. As many members here pointed out; the official response was track and field precludes them from playing. Oh well - nice try.

Off topic - but of interest to the wider audience. On Friday Hills defeated Matraville Sports High School 34-24 in the final of the NSW division of the ARL Schoolboys Cup rugby league competition (the antecedent of the Arrive Alive Cup). The match will be replayed on Channel Nine next Sunday...

You have to wonder why this is not happening now. The same thing happened against Samoa at St Marys.

Aussie selectors are starting with the same team tomorrow that started against Samoa. I wasn't impressed with Fiji when I saw them play CCC. Their ball handling was ordinary. Under pressure tomorrow against the might of the Aussies I'm predicting a 40+ win to the boys in green and gold...

Yes, great team and loved Sir Nicholas Shehadie's quote! Looking at the team I would think Warwick Waugh would be very happy to have made it and flanker John Maxwell must have gone close. Also John Cole and Phil Smith didn't make it. Must have been difficult decisions.

What a waste of a good lunch!!

I have to agree with this post Sarge. Was it after the tenth schooner this was said to you?

We are well of for 9's and 10's. I was impressed by all. Really like the look of Wylie - great passing and kicking game. Fed his backline well. I also thought Hingano played a great game. Gee the boy is strong. He would have made a difference to Auggies last Monday for sure. Luani was...

Crook played well. Indeed if he had been fed the ball on two occasions I recall, he may have scored trys. He may have a bit of the X factor if they played him at fullback. I wonder why they wont give him a shot there? Perhaps they have pidgeon-holed him because of his sub-11 sec 100m time?

Fiji 27 CCC 10. 5 trys to 2. Aussies were leading Samoa around 50-6 when I left with 10 minutes to go

That's a shame. I believe he has a bright future in rugby. I thought he may have been given a shot at the sevens.

Love your passion! Yeah.....bring it on!

Any suggestion that Hills do not have speed and flair is a nonsense. Some of the trys they have scored this year and in the final were absolutely spectacular free flowing football. They ran Auggies off their feet behind an awesome pack of forwards that laid a great foundation. The...

Many of the boys that played in the Waratah Shield final are playing in the semi final of the ARL Schoolboy Cup (the antecedent of the Arrive Alive Cup) at CUA Stadium on Saturday against Matraville Sports HS. If they win that they will play the national final against Keebra Park QLD...

Newington College vs The Hills Sports High School is on the agenda. I have been told both schools are talking and are keen to get the game on within the next two weeks. What a great promotion for schoolboy rugby it would be. As Spiro Zavos said in his column this morning we need to...

Wed - 8 September Samoa Schools v Australian Schools St Marys Stadium - St Marys 7:00pm Wed - 8 September Fiji Schools v NSW Combined Catholic Colleges St Marys Stadium - St Marys 5:30pm

That is a strong team. I am tipping a 30+ result to the Aussies. Wylie will feed that potent backline

A very interesting article by Spiro in the SMH this morning has reflected what many members here suggest and that is a reorganisation of the schools rugby competitions. Wouldn't it be great to see a Hills v Newington battle or Auggies battling with the mighty Barker first XV...

Sorry Lindommer.....how dare I forget the Pirates! Indeed they, along with the Hills and JGS coaches, have done a great job with Steve. And before someone writes in and says, "his family", yes his family as well. He is an intelligent, nice natured boy that will go a long way in the game.
