    Also FWIW one of these Lauries lads playing for Riverside ended up being the leading point scorer in the U14 Div 1 competition , and no , it wasn't who you think it would be . Good player . Under rated player The other factor as well is that there supposedly are a number of these High lads...

    True . High pretty much own the Sunnybank /Logan catchment although Terrace have had a good crack over the last couple of years off the back of Tom Barker's strong relationships in the Polynesian Community Insofar as this year's Lauries 14A's are concerned I wouldn't be that worried ...there...

    The one guy that springs to mind is the young Connors lad from St Pats He had a ways to go last campaign but if he puts the work in and he wants it enough - he could surprise a lot of people

    Well to be fair , No Deal's gripe about skulduggery in who was poaching who could be interpreted in a number of ways with fingers pointed in multiple directions It can be lonely at the bottom too Old School - and that is likely where you will find the origin point of No Deal's gripes - deep...

    Can you bring in 80% of your team in Grade 8 and 9 for the specific primary purpose of being more competitive on the paddock and call yourself pure ? Just wonderin.... Not saying that this was the case with this year's GT Firsts Team, Getwithme , however , watch that space for the Red and...

    Schools get the money King Look at NCAA type College Sports where the "student athlete'" amateur status is strictly enforced Meanwhile the Colleges /Associations kill it on Broadcast and Merchandise

    Harry Wilson as an 8 is not out of place . His ability to offload the ball in contact is really something Maybe the best ball handling skills for a forward I have seen over the last 5 years

    Rumour has it that, next season , TSS are considering outsourcing the promotion and service function of their canteen to the GC meter maids who , as they parade around the ground , will be draped with a sash that reads : Try our burgers
