    So how will the U16’s go this year ? Those that figure to play First XV ? Bob Rug has been keen on some Terrace 16’s - but what of them and others ?

    I really enjoyed watching NC's team last year Sage - especially Smith and Flook in the midfield - exactly what you correctly refer to above in the Nudgee way of things

    Bob Rug Perhaps you can share where and how IGS will dark horse their way in winning the battle upfront through the Tight 5 ?

    My Dear Sage, Reading is fundamental But once more ..... 1. I think TSS have more horsepower in their pack than what Nudgee do ( Nongorr/Blyth/Douglas/Lyndon/Vandy Junior + a new body upfront is > than Vella, Nofoagotoa , Thompson and a support cast who will be earnest and do the job ) I...

    I reckon TSS roll NC at Southport in R1 More punch and power in the forwards - this and being at home give them the advantage Better U16 talent coming through v NC’s U17 and U16 ( in the backs ) boys to round them out and give them further advantage

    Wouldn’t read too much into that . TSS didn’t have a single U16 player in their Firsts last year - BBC were missing their 9,10, 12 ,13 , 15, 2 and 5 from the corresponding game in the previous season. Having said that TSS will have a strong forward pack with Nongorr, Blyth , Douglas and...

    AIC Rugby 2019

    The Paduans look set for a promising season where they shouldn't be taken lightly I think you hit the nail on the head though BS6 .....it's about protecting your own attack ball and if team's can't do that then you don't win That's why MCA have done as well as they have over the last few...

    Interesting. SCGS had a core of players that formed the nucleus of a Sunshine Coast regional team that came 3rd in the State Championships a couple of years ago with a few boys going on to higher Rep honours and maybe 1 or 2 now in the U18 Reds Academy No disrespect but I would have expected...

    The forerunner to AIC , the TAS competition in the 80's ( and in all years prior ) had Home and Away rounds through Term 2 and 3 . I assume GPS was the same way back when.

    Say it ain't so Bob ! No one puts baby in a corner and no one besmirches the Nudge ! I'm with Patriot .......I don't see it . The Nudge appear to have had a couple of key losses and if you look through the projected starting 15 there really wouldn't appear to be too much ( if anything ) that...

    GT : 1/350 ? Probably sounds like what their Rugby For and Against will be this year

    How do you know ? I thought you claimed to be Nudgee aligned ? I mean ....ultimately it does come down to results doesn’t it ? Bottom line is , over the last few years , is that Terrace overrated their teams and their recruitment and then had the double whammy of not getting the best out of...

    12 Terrace boys I'm told as the Red and Black coaching resolution continues Not sure about Grammar ( but I was told there was no support for it a week ago unless something has now changed ) , but elsewhere , only 1 player from inside a GPS First XV squad participating No Nudgee . No IGS . No...

    On the 18 Academy games ....there might be more opportunity for U17 players in the inside backs given I can’t see the Brumbies aligned Pasitoa lining up for Reds - and who knows if Gordon is upstream in U20’s Could be an U18 centric pack and an U17 centric backline Note : There is a proposed...

    Anyway ...it is all a bit too hasty in slagging off QLD Schools as a triple red zone whupping prospect down at Nationals . It might be more of a debate about degrees of whupping , but honestly , they may not be that bad IF they make themselves available ..... Downlands Mac Grealy might be...
