Well looks like the much hyped GPS Boys got the rub of the green again Out of 46 spots - 6 to AIC and 3 to CSS 80% GPS 20% Other I did call 7-8 back in Feb and if LTW and Maritz were included - then there is your 8 Sort of stunned that these 2 aren’t there

On the 13 Spot .........I reckon both Ronan Kapi ( TSS ) and Jordan Carriera ( IGS ) are hella good players and will definitely be in the mix . Carriera was pretty good on the first night - Kapi is all class but I thought that would have come out a bit more over the last couple of nights . Same...

Gordon is being cautious to ensure he is right for start of GPS season Parata is gone . He's in NZ . TSS just took a major drift in the updated Owens Book ( will issue on the way to the Snow over the weekend !) Vaihu will be there . Quality player and has trialled well . Although I will say...

Hey G What are the odds ? Gee wiz if I didn't know any better I reckon you might know my fondness for a punt : ) Jokes aside .......mate , to be honest , I would pick both of them as my starters on QLD 1 . It's not just what they do with ball in hand - it's their defensive ability I...

Bailey Tautau ( NC ) my forward of the night tonight - was everywhere in the 2nd half - even on a big score line and kept the intensity and work rate up . Good stuff Louis Maritz ( SPC ) best of the backs

With Carter Gordon ( BBC ) not doing the Open Rep season and with Campbell Parata ( TSS ) out of the picture , all of a sudden there is a real ? over the 10 spots. Reesjan Pasiota ( NC ) should be the first guy picked - but there are 3 other spots that need to be filled . IGS's Meli Dreu will...

Well Downes , Finnochiarro , Tevega and Fox are well sized - but truthfully , Byrnes and Geraghty are not sized enough for where they are playing and won't and shouldn't IMO be ahead of LOCKS Fred Fewtrell ( ACGS ) Will Chaffey ( TGS ) who I have as the stand out locks over the last 2...

I thought Navy really missed Spencer Jeans out there tonight at 9 Organisation was a bit rickety - especially in 2nd half and some leadership was lacking , in the forced plays and trying to hit home runs off very carry , instead of building It showed a lack of respect for AIC who did lift...

Tennison Woods and Maritz were worth 3 to 4 tries between them - in what they scored ( well at least Connor O'Regan's try that was set by Maritz ) but probably moreso defensively in what they saved in the first half just with better defense beating good offense Take those 2 out of the game and...

Hmmmm I posted this at end of Feb and had completely forgotten about it until I tried to put together “ teams of the day” x 2 based on best player performances from what I could tell last night and tonight Day 1 - I only had 4 from AIC and 3 from CSS Day 2 though I had 8 from AIC and 3...

Dennis Waight from BGS my back of the night Fred Fewtrell from ACGS my forward of the night

A lot more spilled ball in the 2nd game - players seemed to struggle more in the conditions Agree that CSS 25 really attracted notice ( I think he’s a kid from Marsden High - Izzy Folau’s old digs ) and CSS 10 really seemed to have his way whenever he wanted it - moreso in the first half...

All good just want to get my gratuitous bandwagon gag in

You guys picking each other up in the band wagon I assume ?

I believe Connor McKinlay is at Churchie and playing as a 7 Tim Faingaanuka is a THP at TGS From what I saw of both of them in trials they were both unlucky not to be playing in the QLD Schoolboy trials over the next few days 21 x GPS Boys out of the 46 across both squads still out there...

^Fair enough re : 2019 , clearly a response on some stuff that was going around from a few different posters .....but whateves Your list is pretty interesting ( genuine ) I am surprised at how high you have TGS and BSHS I don't think many people would argue with 1 and 2 , but 3 to 8 might...

So Keeps - who you got 1 through 9 this year ?

In this thought around transition to ATAR and its possible impacts over the last few pages it was good to see TSS's squad and broken down into Grade 12 and 11 , but where , it would seem - that those Grade 11 Boys are basically of Opens Age , meaning , TSS is likely to have a minimum of 11 x 18...

If we’re attempting to frame all this in a Mathematical context - I don’t believe it is as one dimensional , or as linear , in the way it has been explained Far from it If anything - you could make an argument , with good support of facts, that the transition has led to a greater...

That's right comrade
