Mosman played Chatswood in U15s GF 2 years ago I think!

Don't think I've seen a Chatswood U16 team in the last 4 years. Often seem to win U15s and then disappear! Something to do with school pressure!

Here's a novel thought! Lets overhaul the whole lot! I know it won't happen, because the traditionalists will never let it! It's so much better to kill a sport by stealth & scholarships, but don't touch our association. So will AAGPS be happy when they only have 5 in Div 1, with Shore falling as...

If the schools system was completely overhauled, a lot of this "scholarship" garbage would become irrelevant. Cut out the AAGPS, the CAS and the ISA and divide all independent schools into divisions by size of rugby playing populations. You'd need a little manipulation as no one is as big as...

Hooper

If he'd been playing for Coogee Seahorses he probably would have been!

What a great story! The development of team, over the individual can never be underestimated, nor can the impact that 1st grade contact with colts players! A truly magnificient effort by the 2 blues!

You're kidding, aren't you?

Results of Div 2, specifically Chev v Redfield game?

He did play a year in colts - at Easts, where he played junior club as well! The lure of 1st grade clearly was stronger than his old club ties!

And both these boys organic (as in not scholarshipped) Scots Kids!

Go to the ISA webpage, results (http://www.isa.nsw.edu.au/ISA-results.html). You'll find Div 1 & 2 Rugby there, plus all their other sports.

It's particularly tragic when you consider they have a great U17s group, that you would hope filter through to colts next year!

Do you also want to lose the Brumbies players from the competition?

Isn't it reasonable to expect those who are paid to work in the ARU, or NSWRU to carry out such a project?

2-3 years ago they approached the people who run these ovals and were turned down. They either are already booked by schools, or clubs. With soccer, AFL and league on them. don't know the situation these days.

More importantly where can they play! No grounds available in that very small geographic area!

It happens in some clubs, but very much depends on the people coaching each age group! Some coaches do a great job, others appear to think they are there to win a Super Rugby tournament! Its the boys in teams with these sorts of coaches that give it in about 14/15. If the coaching has been all...

How many of them started high school in the AAGPS? I think we know they are not all produced in the "system" just telescoped there when identified around 15 or 16.
