To be fair .... Easts dominated around 70% of possession and field position against Riverside in their 1st round match up yet it was a 4 tries to 2 result to Riverside at halftime. Easts forwards dominated. The difference was Riverside got 5 touches to their winger for 3 tries and Easts outside...

Yah. All good points. The majority of my tips re : Easts were in the forwards . Reality ? I would probably cull two of the Easts boys, however , I originally had 75% to 80% true merit and 20% to 25% rep picks - kids who will probably get selected on name On this score , I would cull 2 of Easts...

I also note that for Harry Small's sensitivities that Rugby Spirit and myself who don't know each other from a bar of soap have 17 of the same players in the 23 That's close to a 75% correlation Some transparent bias huh ?

Reserves 16 Souths 7 ( as reserve hooker ) 17. GPS 1 ( Red headgear ) 18. Riverside 3 19, Riverside 8/4/6 29. Riverside 7 21. Logan 12/13 22. Ipswich 14 23 Wests 15

1. Souths 8 2. Easts 2 3. Easts 3 4. Easts 8 /4 5. GPS 5 6. Easts 12/13/8 7. Easts 7 8. Ipswich 8 Backline and reserves later This is what I'd go with but Riverside 7 , 13/8 and 2 and 3 would be in the mix and challenge strongly for places

Nah - Numbers only . Those that know will know

Basso's right This kid would have made a massive difference to Ipswich in the first half of the season This guy plays on the Rangers in the first half of the season and they are mid table or better and not heading South to Div 2 They smoked Kenmore , leaders of Div 2 , by 40 something...

Predict what they will do or what I reckon ? They'll likely go for size ahead of skill / ability in the forwards When I have time later I'll have a stab

I I guess PP felt strongly in his view that was undoubtedly commensurate with the outrageous nature of the original comment Anyone that is truly impartial and has a clue about the age group could probably think of several others that have better impact than 2 of the 3 that you were talking...

@ Harry Small I'm not sure how "different" the teammates are when Pink is Easts with a few Souths throw ins and Blue is Riverside with the best of Souths , where , some of the boys have high familiarity with each other anyway from School Rugby I made mention earlier in the thread that...

Also good point raised by Prince Henry re : fade of GPS ( Schools ) players on GPS ( Schools ) centric Club Teams It happened last year in 12's and 13's as well The BJRU have trialled the half season option at U15 level this year Maybe they lower the offering to U13 and U14 Teams next...

Good for you But the cynic in me would say that 2/3rds of the City spots are already taken

You hit the nail on the head on a few of these points . The issue with Green is that there have been a couple of injuries and pull outs and then there've is no guarantee that their best foward pack they could play will play ...or at least in the right positions Riverside is reliant on one...

green and pink have the best foward personnel and blue and pink the best backs Lots of big names / reputation players in the forwards from blue , but , I would only look at a one of their forwards at prop and a second rower ( both play in a multitude of different positions at club ) . From...

Except Souths best players mysteriously ended up in the East

You have to wonder about a process where you have kids from different regions and hence playing for different Clubs and yet are all still at the same school ending up on a loaded team . Nope nothing suss about that. And in terms of kids happiness ? Let's ask the Sunnybank and Logan kids how...

Indeed So what do the June / July holidays hold for all the different schools in terms of Camps etc
