Full time Oakhill 22 - Joeys 39 Joeys still rusty, Oakhill very determined. Two late Joeys tries settled it. Seemed to be a lot of injuries for Joeys. This time the 5 subs were all second half injuries …

Half time 1st XV Oakhill 5 - Joeys 17

Joeys 2nd’s 21 - Auggies 1sts 29 Joeys 3rds 42 - Oakhill 2nds 5

First half Knox had all the territory and possession, but Joeys burnt them on turnovers. Pat Broe at fullback was sensational and scored a first half hat trick. Second half saw a frenetic arm wrestle and Knox hung in as Joeys threatened to run away with it, and the turning point came when Pat...

Full time Knox 34- Joeys 33 Knox scored 3 tries in the last 10mins to come back from 15-33. Terrific game. Well done Knox.

Half time in 1sts Joeys 26 - Knox 15 Joeys making do with only 25% possession. Knox with all the size and territory. Joeys backs the difference.

A bit of bad news for Joeys coming out of their camp. Big No. 8 Eamon Doyle has had knee surgery and is out for 3 months, meaning he will only play the last 4 games in term 3 (And no, this is not propaganda sadly). Terrible news for the poor kid, missing the GPS season is every Year 12’s worst...

Terrific news . Kid can really play.

Joeys had an excellent hit out against a willing Marist Canberra team. First 25 mins was all Joeys who showed terrific ball control and disciplined defence for a team having their first hit out to skip out to a 24-0 lead. After Eamon Doyle went off with what seemed to be a very bad knee injury...

Tight head would be James Winter. Central West boy that Pat McCutcheon has encouraged closely along the journey. I agree, quiet achiever and good all-round skills. No.8 would be Eamon Doyle from Illawarra. Yep, big fella who unfortunately got injured last year. A real talent if he stays...

Kings definitely will have the best depth across all the schools when you look at the caliber of returning players from last years 1sts to 3rds as well as a very good 16A’s. That helps hugely in a two round comp. Scots have the best cohort of Yr 11 talent in the GPS and could do good things...

The boys said the coach had a harsh word in front of the rest of the team a week or so after this and in all the following matches he was enthusiastically shaking the hands of anyone he could find before kick off! Good player though. Joeys will be happy he is back this year.

Very quick to correct and fact check everyone else on here and then you come out with this whopper. 12,000? Everyone there reported on the CAS thread a terrific crowd of around 4,000. Some jealous exaggeration from you there. It is what it is. You have come over to this forum to boast about...

Based on the 2022 Joeys teams, and those still in year 11, if Joeys had to name a 2023 1st XV today - the following is where it would be using just 1sts, 2nds and a few 16A’s: ??? Bill Smith (16A) James Winter (2nds) Joe Mangelsdorf (2nds) Arthur Greer/Harry Seigmeier (16A/2nds) Will Bensley...

Patrick Young, Hwi Sharples, Oscar Jorgenson, Patrick Broe. Add to that some others who played 3 or more games in 1's across the season (Eamon Doyle, Ben Whyte, Ben Playford from memory) and there's a fair core coming back in addition to some pretty good players in the 2nds back next year.

Kings will be strong across 1sts-3rds next year, no doubt. Scots will have a great backline and will be interesting to see if they can get a good forward platform. New will have a lot of points in them and need to show some more defensive grit. Joeys issue next year won’t be the 1st XV. They...

Nothing like going off early ….. just like everyone said this time last year said it was Shore’s year, then it was Newington’s best chance in ages, then Scots beat Barker and it was theirs to lose… you can all write Joeys off next year at your peril. Still 13 players from year 11 in 1sts and...

There is a big difference physically and in game maturity between 16A's and 2nds. Some boys who bounce between 16A's and 2nds usually tell you their 2nds would well and truly dominate their 16A's. Some 16A players are exceptional, but on a good day the very best 16A's might beat a very weak 2nds...

30-14, 4 tries to 2, but I get your drift. And Scots beat Barker 22-10. What reality is that?

If you think Joeys have a long list of excuses about the Barker 'trial/friendly/pre-season fixture', just ask Barker supporters (which seems to include other GPS schools in this debate) about the fact they lost convincingly to Scots ......
