Just speaking in generalities here because this sort of stuff gets said a lot, and not just here. Having coached schoolboy rugby in NZ, and being on that side of the fence. Selecting a schoolboy team isn’t easy because you’re picking from a fixed pool of players. it’s very common to play kids...

I had heard he was only at 10 because the other options didn’t show much promise and that he’s slated to play 12 next year. Anyone confirm this? Does Siolo move from 15 to 10? Moses at BSHS will be much better for this season, and I think next years team will be much stronger than this year...

There's quite a few first XVs this season littered with 16 year olds because you have the split year issue when Prep started coming to an end in the next few years. So it won't suddenly change for any school next year, not at all, except that TSS won't have an unusually higher number of 18 year...

GT last week and now IGS have taken the gloss off TSS ... They’re not unbeatable, and in fact, based on what I saw on the live streams these past two weeks, littered with weak spots. I really thought after conceding 45 points TSS would really focus this week, but that didn’t happen. NC really...

Apparently GTs seconds played Dowlands and went down 30-24, a bunch of them are family friends and are headed out to the BBC v NC match.

TSS v IGS - TSS by 40 after GT put 45 points on them last week they would have copped it from the coaching staff and will want to improve to NC coming up. BBC v NC - NC by 14 Sorry, BBC might lead this game early, but they'll get pumped in the final 20 TGS v ACGS - TGS by 7 Game of the round for...

This kind of stuff is uncalled for ... The last two pages of this forum is you ragging on double take, And Terrace. I spoke to the Cameraman on Saturday at the BSHS game, he pretty much said they do what they can but can’t broadcast from some grounds for various reasons and are subject to what...

TSS v GT - My Terrace friends tell me the captain and Aussie schoolboy #7 was not named in the team this weekend, among a whole bunch of changes to the forward pack. GT to go down by 50. BBC v TGS - I’m going to take a punt. TGS by 5. Nudgee v BGS - I really want to say BGS will do this, but NC...

When the GT seconds played my sons team last week they had two very big props who had a few good runs and made a few good tackles, but we’re penalised repeatedly at the scrum. But the GT firsts props did twice the work and dominated the scrum. No brainer. From what I saw the best props for GT...

I don’t have access to the courier mail https://www.couriermail.com.au/sport/rugby/gps-rugby/gps-rugby-2018-match-reports-from-round-3/news-story/4282ef53f44da33a474eb01593ba0b21 What’s the dodgy yellow card video rederred to here?

The GT boys have been going on since NC about the forward pass for the first of Nudgee’s quick second half tries, plus a supposed no arms tackle on the 9. So I’d you’re going to start clutching at straws and inventing what ifs, then you have to clutch all of them.

Every GPS school has a good coach, and if we’re talking NC v TSS then yeah it’s going to come down to tactics, strategy, man management. But for everyone else, the schools just don’t have the cattle to compete. God could have been coaching BSHS, it would not have helped so far this season.

Let’s not invent new laws now ... If you stamp it’s a red, has been that way for a decade or more

This is terrible news, another boy with an injured neck. What a Terrible season it’s been in that regard.

Blow out scores all round ... GPS is a two tier comp

GT just went up 30-7 with the try of the season so far, at least from what I’ve seen. BSHS haven’t been able to get in the game at all, much like last week. ... and it’s 39-7 just like that. Gee Nudgee and BBC must have been class to beat this team. This GT performance is much better than TSS...

It’s stamping under the law, and it’s a red. Includes an automatic week off too. But with no red given, may not be a week off. Up to the school I think.

BSHS 27 - GT 22 in the seconds. Really tough game and well fought both sides. Not sure there should of been a winner. GT up 25-7 in the firsts, GT hooker with a Hattrick. A bit dodgy his third try, but the touchie gave it the thumbs up. BSHS could get walloped here.

Awful to hear there’s another one. Hope he’s ok. I see the Terrace boy is in good spirits but facing some serious challenges. Always hard to hear such young guys facing such serious life changing situations. Impressed by that BGS score, hope they can keep that up. BBC would not be happy with...

TSS 35 - BSHS 5 ... Picked the margin
