    RS, think you better re-watch Sidesteppa's video of the Joeys V View game. I don't agree with your comments on the View pack being more agile than Joeys. I also don't think the Joeys pack are exceptionally big and they certainly do not lack speed! near-full game footage >>

    sweetchilli philli I admire your fiery passion for all things ISA. We can blame the ARU and BP for a lot of things that are wrong with Rugby but not the schoolboy Rugby schedule! Take that one up with the various associations....... Strength of Rugby schools in the majority is cyclical but...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championships 2017

    TD, in theory you are correct but the boys on that list have previously been selected at this level and therefore anyone hoping to "knock them off" needs to be not only as good but demonstrably better. A tough ask at the pointy end. Love it or hate it, on past form, an incumbent may be able...

    Come on guys lets have your CAS 2s as well as your 1s. You have some talent going around and some nice selection headaches. Both teams will be showcased for NSW and CS selection, so would be good to see who others rate. I believe Donaldson would be in front of Woodcock at this point on...

    2017 AAGPS/CAS Combined "Comp"

    One has to seriously wonder how the future of the executive and ARU Board is tenable. How much worse does it have to get before they fall on their sword?:mad: I doubt that on any measure (other then their owno_O) their performance would have been deemed acceptable. Interesting to see a...

    NSW AAGPS 2017

    I think there were 3 maybe 4 year 10 boys on the field at the end. My personal opinion is that Joeys have treated all the trials as genuine trials and have given as many boys as they feel are capable an opportunity to impress. There were mutterings around early form against Marist Canberra...

    Sidelineview The 2 half back will likely be battling it out for the GPS 1st half back spot. I think Dowling would be incumbent but Grant took risks and played very well. On the other players. Here is additional detail: View #6 Charles Rorke 2016 Australian Barbarians and member of Waratahs...

    Rollaway11, I would be very surprised to see no Newington players in GPS 1 team. Admittedly I haven't seen them play. Your selections by school S (5), J (4), I (3), K (2), E (1), N (0), T (0), G (0), H (0)

    Um RS, I cant confirm re Northcot and Kitchener but your match report from Barker 1s V Joeys 2nds references Reimer as playing. Are you sure you don't mean the Barker 1s V Joeys 3rds game that Reimer was missing from?

    CAS U16s 2017

    That is a very big call! Due to the volume of players eligible who play in the opens, your benchmark for that comment will have to remain how many make your association rep teams. Based on previous form, I guess we will find out when U16 CAS, ISA and GPS Presidents teams are announced and...

    On Saturday Joeys V Knox in the 13s Age Group, there were 2 abandoned matched due to serious injury, both I believe requiring Ambulance on the field. Does anyone have an update on the condition of the Knox boys injured in the 13B game (Winger) and the 13A team (Hooker) The thoughts of the...

    The 13 A match was abandoned due to an injury to the Knox Hooker 10 minutes into second half. From memory Joeys were leading 4 tries to 1 or thereabouts.

    Mike Wazowski, here is an update on my previous post with the assistance of updates from Gary Owen III and Honey Badger. Also taking into consideration form from trials as posted in the forum or in pre-season trial reviews. As I haven't seen all the teams play, in the interest of fairness, I...

    Couldn't agree more LG. Also agree with you on Yates as MOTM or at least best forward from both teams. Yates has been outstanding in the trials I have seen. A big contrast in game styles between Frost and Yates. For a big unit Yates is very mobile, a strong runner with ball in hand and great...

    1ST & 2ND XV – GPS Trial – I v J, N v K, S v E 3RD XV – GPS Competition – Round 2 – H v I, J v K, G v E, S v TAS I think Newington V Kings would be very interesting and a close match. But the traditional rivalry between Riverview and Joeys could make for a very big crowd and an entertaining...

    Waratahstowin, I have to disagree with you re Frost on Saturday. I have watched a number of his games over the past 2 years and by his high standards, I actually thought he was disappointing/quiet. He is generally an asset (weapon) on lineout ball but he was quiet. He also didn't take one...
