GOIII I genuinely believe Rugby at Shore is on the improve especially in younger age groups of 13s and 14s. The results vindicate the improved coaching and resourcing going into Rugby (about time) Just a word of warning on last weeks results. Joeys incorporated fixtures with Barker in some age...

The trip to Orange is a fantastic weekend away for the kids (and parents ;)) The Orange Emus do a wonderful job. Their roast pork rolls with crackling at the ground are worth seeking out! Pubs in town are great and cook your own steaks at the Conobolas would be my strong tip. As for the...

Brother Anthony Boyd is alive and well! I cant comment on whether he MC's the open evenings but I wouldnt be surprised. As an educator and coach he has few peers. Not sure how he would view your comments about "getting on" in age. When Ross Tarlington has previously been on sabbatical, Br...

Not sure who is still out or returning for this week. I know concussion has been a problem, I estimate 4 boys (in the Firsts) have been out for mandatory recovery. I think all schools have had a fairly miserable time with "team rehab". I see no point in rushing boys back for trials. Its a...

Welcome back Sidesteppa Some outstanding games in prospect involving GPS. View v Waverley Kings v Scots Joeys v Knox Newington v Shore Toss the coin between Kings v Scots and Joeys v Knox as matches of the round. I may be bias but I would head up to Hunters Hill. For no other reason...

Thanks HB have edited post and included

I had a look at who played Australian Schoolboys and Australian Barbarians in 2016 and remain eligible for Australian Schoolboys selection in 2017. It made for interesting reading. Assuming their incumbency as a good start then a draft Australian schoolboys team could look something like this...

Thanks GO and Honeybadger, I have added those selections in. Wasn't Collard a reserve for the GPS White in 2016? Think hooker will be a very competitive position this year.

I tend to agree TD that it is early days, but given they select the 4 GPS teams in less than 4 weeks I am sure "real selectors" have been busy. I am prepared to give it a go. Given there are 4 teams, I have selected 4 in each positions (they really aren't in any particular order). More so as...

C'mon B & W, we need a match report from you on this cracking match (in prospect)! What else are you going to do on a Saturday afternoon? Careful or Mrs B & W will dig out that "to do" list

Ross Tarlington the retiring Principal at Joeys coaches the 13Gs. And has for a number of years. The School 2nds ran the water for the 13Gs and cheered these boys on during their game last weekend. The 13Gs beat Waverley 13Fs 17-10. I am sure the boys had a ball. Now that is school spirit...

Agree they are organised a lot earlier this year which is terrific and gives the boys a good experience of coaching and development. This team is made up of boys who are ineligible for State Champs as NSWJSC finish at U17. A Sydney U17 team will be selected from the State Champs in U17 Age...

From what I have seen I cant see Barker competing against Knox or Waverley for the top 2. Barker 1sts lost against Joeys 2nds last weekend and have a chance to "redeem" themselves against Joeys 3rds this weekend. FYI Joeys 3rds defeated Trinity 1sts a few weeks back.

That makes a lot of sense. Joeys Thirds beat Trinity Firsts in a competitive game 2 weeks ago

What struck me yesterday was that I kept hearing how ill disciplined Waverley were but didnt see any evidence. Maybe they were on their best behaviour! Sure they were very physical abut they are an impressive side. Knox V Waverley will be a fantastic game in prospect. Having now seen both...

Does anyone have team lists for tomorrow? Its always interesting to see who has been selected in a particular grade Would be great if you could post a copy of the team lists on this forum from a game day programme. Please :)

This has got disaster written all over it..... Waves most competitive teams will be Firsts and 16A. Based on form from Joeys V Scots across all age groups I think Waves will struggle in all other A teams. Picking Joeys to win 1sts, 2nds, 3rds, 16A toss the coin, Joeys the rest

Easy everybody, apologies, my comment should have read as "the clash of the centre pairings will be the best of the GPS and CAS in the offing". No doubt that will draw some ire as well :confused: Selectors from both associations I imagine will watch with keen interest.
