    Union or League? The pros and cons for school leavers

    I think a few things are lost in this, simple facts unless you wear 10-15 on your back and are an elite player at 16s then you don't have any of the choices during or post school that you have mentioned. Outside of these positions/quality you are probably playing subbies or A grade in a few...

    Union or League? The pros and cons for school leavers

    These amounts are becoming more common and have been happening for a few years. Will Hopoate was paid $100k at 18 based on his potential although with the 20s comp many more players are earning over $50k before they play grade. In regards to the above quote this will count towards the salary...

    National U/16 Championships 2011

    Fairly dour game that never really reached any great heights especially when compared to some of the play throughout the week. Scoreless for much of the first half before NSW started to get the upper hand. 10 mins into the second half and NSW had moved out to a 20-0 lead mostly through their...

    National U/16 Championships 2011

    Know for certain after conversations with the broncos football people that 10 Paai'aua and 15 Placid are broncos boys. As CTPE said 9 Joey and 13 Tepai are with Parramatta. And was told (not sure 100% sure of it's accuracy) that the storm were after 14. Bill and the Vic outside centre also...

    Union or League? The pros and cons for school leavers

    NOTE: THE FIRST POSTS IN THIS THREAD HAVE BEEN MOVED FROM THE NATIONAL U/16 THREAD; SO THERE MAY BE SOME DISCONTINUITY IN BOTH THREADS Not sure if I'd say it is disappointing or just a reflection of what is a more common situation but of the players listed in Lee's team from 9 to 15, five...

    National U/16 Championships 2011

    So apart from the obvious of who is going to win, interested to hear from those with intimate knowledge of the different sides who are the "danger" players, the ones who could decide the outcome for their respective teams.

    I can confirm you are correct about moving the athletics season next year.

    NSW AAGPS Rugby 2011

    Think you'll probably find this is a one off for tepai and he will drop back to 2nds or even 16s for rest of year.

    NSW U16 Trial Games and Selections 2011

    Newbie Not too sure that many of these will make that decision at this age. For those at GPS/CAS/ISA schools obviously they will continue to be involved in rugby for at least the next few years. Also many of these boys are contracted to their respective clubs. Hence they will be in league until...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championship 2010

    Interesting one. Im all for kids being kids and not having to commit themselves solely to anything. If he was contracted to one or the other than that is a diffferent situation. I know there are many kids who competed who also play league. That being said they are getting to an age when these...

    Australian Schoolboys & National Championship 2010

    Whisper interested to hear your thoughts on Keary, today and over the tournament. Obviously had a decent first game but a leaguie who played in the halves for Manly this year.

    NSW Schools -Trial Games and Selections 2010

    James may be a good player but not as good as killingworth. Very suprised by that decision. Interestingly both boys would have represented the same school had Boyd not got a scholarship from Kings as he also attended Mater Maria with James.
