Joey not Jonty

Yes, that counts. Prodigal son theme gets a bonus point.

Is this the first sunny day for rugby this season?

Joeys a lot, Riverview not many.

Why don’t we get through this season first. As a Joeys supporter I’d be happy if View go with that backline.

The players picked had the opportunity to play 1s during comp.

They only look at 2s players that have played a lot in comp. As for point 2, yes I agree but not more than a good 2s player at a school with depth. Head to head the best players should get picked and I would wager there are good players in Joeys and Scots 2s that would give a lot of 1s players...

When you look at the GPS Blue and White teams and consider some Grammar players are selected they really should give consideration to the 2s teams from the stronger schools. I’d dare say Joeys and Scots 2s would have better candidates in many positions than those selected, more so when you...

GPS 1 + 30 GPS 2 + 30 SJRU + 15 Country + 10

Thanks Mum.

If Issac isn’t participating due to injury why are you having a crack at selectors ?

Who?

Yes agree, out gunned they copped a hiding against Joeys in a trial a few weeks back but you couldn’t question their commitment. One of the centres pulled off a cracking heavy tackle with about 5 mins to go sending the Joeys boy into next week. It would have been easier and safer to let Joeys...

I don’t care who is in it. I am saying it does not serve us well, it is a waste of scarce resources. The recent results speak for themselves and continuing to make the same mistakes is stooopid.

French system is built on T14 plus D2. Underage teams (including U20) compete in a national comp, hence why they play so much. We can’t replicate that but we shouldn’t cloister U20s players away either.

Unlikely, he’d be behind a lot of second row options. I don’t think they’ll be all that worried about the question. All the likely candidates can jump well enough.

I’m talking French system but yes, our bigger issue is the gap between school and elite. That’s why I have an issue with the PONI nonsense. The lads get identified then don’t play, resulting in a) others not getting the chance to demonstrate how they perform against the up until now “best”...

Unlikely, year 11 and has lost too many games. Greer will be captain.

Ummm yes, that’s what I was saying, probably expressed poorly. This idea that some have that PONI players don’t need to play is ridiculous. PONI is ridiculous for other reasons. Either way, 25 games is about 10 short of an equivalent player in the northern hemisphere.

Why do you say “no”?
