    Waratah Shield 2011

    Yes- I think you're right. But it appears now that NSW Schools Rugby has come in to jointly handle the administration of the competition.

    That's what the calender shows! I think there is a discrepancy in max ages for English Schools vs Aust Schoolws- someone else might be able to clarify?

    Will let you know after this coming Saturday. Central West are visiting Penrith to play both their first grade & also a Colts team. Central West Colts look a handy side and have beaten both Canberra Royals & Tuggeranong Vikings over past 2 weeks.

    Rob Horne

    I'm sure Lee Grant would remember the Australian Schools game vs NZ at Joeys in 2007? That day Rob Horne absolutely decimated the Kiwi Captain, who had to come off injured- if memory serves me correct he was then on the spot to score winning try.

    CAS Rugby 2011

    There is no doubt that depth is absolutely necessary, especially with the 10 Round CAS format. As an aside one source has indicated to me that Knox are to enter the Waratah Shield this year- not sure if this is a 1st for them or not. Will endeavour to confirm this in next couple of weeks.

    Sydney Colts 2011

    I was under the impression that Tim Duschense was only in Year 11(2010) and so would still be @ School next year??

    The best XV of players from any school

    I note Bruce Ross mentioned John Langford earlier but no-one has attempted a team from their 1st Xvs. By way of background, in conjunction with the 2003 World Cup the Knox Rugby Community held a Black-Tie Dinner in Sydney, where over 600 people honoured Knox's Former Wallabies/Australian...

    NSW GPS expansion

    As a father of a Knox Old Boy my understanding is that whereas Knox would have liked to see a promotion/relegation joint GPS/CAS Rugby competition they had no wish to be part of the actual GPS system. e.g. rowing would be a problem & logistically a major cost in both finance & time. `The more...

    Quade Cooper and Summer Digressions

    I would suggest a joint session with Nathan Grey & Stirling Mortlock(I think Sonny-Bill Williams) would give Stirling a good reference!

    Bledisloe IV 2010 Hong Kong

    A few reflections of the night: 1. What a lousy crowd - will this game go back to Konkers again or will they try Japan next time? 2. Lineout was great- stealing/disrupting All Blacks Ball several times 3. Ongoing problems in scrum- Ref to blame/loose surface?? 4. Cooper may dazzle in...
