No yr 12. Unlucky to not have a chance in 1’s

Back in your day? When you were 1?

Only 5? There are 4 from Joeys alone

Perhaps, although 5 weeks of incumbency v someone who hadn’t played a game higher than 2s. I reckon that is dropped. You say tomato, etc.

Yes, after the Kings game.

The most interesting aspect of this article is that all the NRL players listed attended either Scots, Newington or Kings. Why is so?

No, the Scots boys walk around like they own everything, not know everything.

Surprised the View boys need a full 12 years of Schooling. They walk around like they know everything from about 3 months into yr 7.

I recall the rule was slightly different back then. You could not turn 19 before the first rugby game of the season (or something like that, I think).

I think I actually say that in my post.

They are professionally contracted, meaning have an obligation to, there is no qualifier to that statement. Rugby is actually very active now, there are substantial numbers signed to academies before the end of school. There really ought to be a proper review of the situation. All the school...

The schools associations should pick their best players. Beyond that, there is no logical reason for Gen Blue to select an NRL contracted player, certainly not on the basis that they might come back in the future. The only carrot that will lure that player back in the future is the almighty...

There must be a reason why Brian is so unpopular.

Joeys +5 Shore +5 Kings + 5

You know they pick a XV right? Reserves come from the 2’s etc. Unless they are changing the historical practice.

Would concur. Brial would be in the team; 4,5,6 or 8

Yeah, I’m watching the same game as everyone else. Comping Bassingthwaite to a young KB (Kurtley Beale) is quite a reach, perhaps a young Darren Junee. If tactical kicking is important then Fowler is the man. Connick is good, he is the second or third best 12 in the GPS.

Makes sense, Brian Smith really only had an international rugby and mungo career due to favouritism….. shhsshhhh

I think there is evidence of favouritism in just about any rugby XV on the planet. There is always 1 or 2 players that receive unequal Favouritism from a coach and there is always a player busting his nut stuck behind the favourite. I think teams cope better with that when there is some...

The truth is shore 7 peaked as a 7 about 2 years ago. He would make and awesome 9 in my opinion and would love to see him at 2. I know this will baffle a lot of people but I have watched him since he was 12 and have been saying this since he was 14.
