It didn't watch the 14's as closely as the 16's Found it hard to get that interested in it and even guys I have seen play much better were off the boil But the 16's game was pretty entertaining The Country backline was pretty good to watch - I thought best overall were gold 20 and Blue 15

And more Prop love in the 16's if you just can't get enough....Gold 3 was best of all Props on the day In the 16's.

Just taking the high road Small Man

Yeah agree. The kid who really impressed me in the 16's was Country 16 . I thought he was the best of the Country Props and for a big lad he had good mobility around the field . Although a lot of the time mobility = attitude/ desire

Not sure I agree with you It only would have embarrassed Country all the more

I don't disagree with you , however , the radar would have had narrower range until recently

You did pretty well and I had to rep your post just based on the General Burkhalter shout out You will achieve legendary status if you can get a Major Horschtedder quip into the mix

Respectfully , Union 4 Life , the issue is bigger than "Gold Coast Rugby"

I mean look at the U13 game / team 15 x GPS Kids 6 x AIC Kids 2 x Private College / State School Kids Bet anyone anything that at least 4 of those AIC boys will end up at GPS Schools before the end of their School Years are over . Same with the State School kids And it's a vicious cycle...

@ Old Red I first raised the likelihoods you raised a couple of pages back on this thread. I even gave reasons. To re-iterate and summarise : 1. Talent is undoubtedly there however is too thinly spread 2. What talent is there will / is migrating earlier as U12 / U13 recruitment picks...

In terms of the U13 Pink forwards ....that Saturday afternoon game against Blue was probably a Grand Final of sorts in likely how both teams saw it ( in seeing themselves as the two best teams in the age level ) It was an absolute belt fest and both forward packs just gave it to each other -...

And yeah the kid I was talking about initially ( in terms of backline selections and from Green making it if he was lucky ) was Green 15 . And he did what he needed to do on the weekend - as he did last year in Met West selection trials and BJRU but miraculously was overlooked in both , and so...

Thanks BAG First of all , what a bloody fantastic weekend - weather , organisation of the event , players participation , 99% of parental behaviour :) hats off all round Second of all , a qualifier , I did not have a lad playing in the Carnival so I come in peace and without prejudice ...

Apparently the playing apparel is super sized Must have been designed by this guy Hope its not too windy for the weekend

When you talk of schools who bring in a new nucleus every year who do you refer to BnG ? Specific examples would be appreciated as well

You can't get a little bit pregnant BnG

;) Good ole Tom Barker

Why the attitude dude ? I have made no comment on anyone carrying anybody . I simply said in response to the flame up between you and Peter Parker ( who I don't know ) that his response was commensurate to the outrageousness of your initial comments . And I did think your initial comments were...

I totally agree with your opening comments Prince , however , people often see different things . For example , a poster commented a page or two back about another poster's QRU projections about how the loose forwards were strong defensively and strong over the ball. I saw something completely...

All excellent points Tashara and I was trying to condense what was already becoming a long post . And whilst I didn't see the whole game , yeah , it seemed evident that a few more boys in your forward pack , that to be fair , had been a bit up and down in their consistency ( notwithstanding...
