All good Joker. I'll get View to get more security.. From the footage, I don't think the NSW riot squad could have held them back but great you pointed out that Joeys had 12 security and View had only 3.

100% agree AroundTheAnkle. Didn't bring it up, but more than happy to put my two cents worth in although don't think it matters because some still don't accept that every school has and will have their old boy problems. Can't "blame" players. That's a cop out. Move on

Congats to the Kings 1XV 2023. Too good and outlasted the View team. Huge defence in the 1st half and slowly but surely gained ground in the second half. View tried hard as they would at home but champion teams pull through. Should go 9-0 this weekend which sets up a possible 10-0 season ending...

Rudderless I'm no New old boy but isn't the pavilion you mention called the Glasson Pavilion ? Anyway, hopefullu Co-ed is a long way off. Won't help New's rugby program and it needs all the help it can get by the looks of the junior results.

The old volleyball game at lunchtime injury. Hopefully he is ok but boys will be boys.

I don't think it's only Scots. New have a lot of talent but ............

Game_Day_Ritual When you say "it takes time to build connections and timing ", that's my point about bringing boys up to opens too soon. I know that the young Scots backline are very talented and they will be great next year however if they had played together in lower age group one more year...

Let's stick to Rugby talk, please As mentioned in previous posts, Scots will have much the same backline next year as they've had this year and a few boys even coming back for 3 years. Talented but is it attitude/coaching that is the problem ? What will change next year ? I feel there are...

Eastman 100% CORRECT.

TriesAfterPies As mentioned previously in my posts, Views coaches have held back a lot of the 16's players in order to form good combinations and confidance for next year. This year is a big, big bonus and the boys have played very well and with a huge chance to win a premiership. However...

So by the sounds of things, Scots need to have a good pack ( like most backlines need ) and they'll be right. I think it might not be that easy to fix. A good 9/10 combination is vital ( as per View/Kings this year ). The forwards will not always give you front foot and a premiership team needs...

To the Scots supporters Why are your expectations of next year's Scots backline so high ? It will basically be the same as this year and apart from experience ( which is a big thing in Opens footy ), the incumbent players have been a little disappointing this year. They'll need to play alot...

Rugbynbeers I agree that to be 7-0 Kings must have performed well as a team, but there are some very talented individuals in the Kings XV that can turn a game if the team is below par. Not many schools this year have had that luxury which makes View's team performances imo better for the...

RedorDead The Cranbrook boys probably could have attempted to make the tackle however, It doesn't matter whether the Cranbrook boys know the laws or not, they appealed and the Ref blew the whistle as did the Barker boys appealed and the try was awarded. The only person that NEEDS to know the...

As a neutral and having watched the play, imo : The Ref ( who is in charge of the game and should know the rules ) blows the penalty and lifts his arm to Cranbrook as the Barker player breaks from the lineout/maul before the Barker player crosses the try line or dives over and grounds the...

I agree with you Dribble. View has played as a team and deserve thei place on the table. I just worry that Kings have a few more class individuals but if View can shut them down, they can certainly last the whole game and win. Joeys does have a great atmosphere and playing surface. There is...

View have produced very good no.10's lately ( Bowen, Dillon etc ) and I'm happy for you mr footy head that you think you were in that class. Let's hope he has a cracker this weekend. View's forwards need to give their backs good, clean ball for the 10 to weave his magic. Big matches are won up...

If there is one game Kings supporters need to get to it's this weekends game against View. View at home will have huge support knowing that an upset may give them a shot at a joint premiership. One more win to Kings and the shield goes to Parramatta. Surely the kings faithful will travel to...

Great game by View against Scots. As expected, the forwards did their job and the 9 and 10 controlled the game very well. View's backline outplayed the highly fancied Scots backline and used their smarts to finish well clear. Yes, the Scots backline is mostly yr11 but for all the hype, even the...

Backintheoldday As I've previously said a few times, View have had an eye on next year and have kept a bulk of yr11 in 16's. Not to say they have not done well this year and may still fight for a premership yet, however I think they are building a good base for 2024. Forwards will be strong and...
