Lach Swinton is year 12

CAS selections issues are at 9 and 10. Having seen Knox, Barker and Trinity, Siteine (T) has been solid without being a game breaker. Thought Dainton (A) would have been the choice but sounds like his season is over. Elsewhere, Longville (T) was clearly ahead of Bosch(K) for the 15 job last...

Great report Tahmen. Knox has finally got the monkey off their back at the valley. They will be hard to stop now - sounds like a team effort and less reliance on individuals as last year.

Knox have had 5 trips to death valley without a victory - and their season is on the line again tomorrow. They have a good side but were very arrogant at the start last week - first scrum on their own line with their biggest forward at first receiver. Then proceeded to stand their two biggest in...

Whilst Cranbrook were given a rugby lesson on Saturday, Knox will remember the Waverley game as their lost title bout. Correct me if I'm wrong someone, but I think Knox have now had 4 trips to Queens Park in succession without a victory. The Knox coaching staff by next year may finally remind...

Snort, re the '77 Knox side they also had Rob Horton and Andy Brink who both played first grade soon after and I think Horton represented Sydney as well. And your memory is pretty good as Aloys won it in '78. Also re your recent post and the Cranbrook side of '79 - Dave Alexander is still in the...

Knox 53 trinity 7, 9 tries to 1 29 -7 at halftime when trinity lost corris (6) to a stretcher and number 1 to a red card 15 for trinity went well in first half but got swamped a couple of times and was quiet in the second half Best for Knox chapman (8) but not a lot of stand out performances...

Kazoom, don't take the bait from Knox boys, Lemons and Mactruck - obviously bored in class!

U16 for Knox in the 1st is the 4 Basson. The number 15 Bosch has also had game time in both games but at halfback. Pretty sure the number 5 Margin got on in the first round as well. Other one to watch at Knox is the 12 Armstrong. He and Bosch carved up the Waves backs last weekend. Haven't...

As a Knox parent I like rd32's thoughts. I haven't met Matt Williams at Knox but it appears his brief revolves around 1st 15 success - with his efforts appearing to focus on the top team and a few of the standouts from the 16A's. Surely in the long term both for rugby and the school, attention...

Apparently the Knox 13 Watson is out tomorrow with Roosters U18 finals commitments so will test Knox's backline depth.

How bad was Smerdon's (B) injury - is he playing this weekend?

Knox down to Barker 15-13 in 2nds with a try to Barker at the death for a deserved win. Knox only had to play smart rugby in the last 15 to win 13-10 but were not up to it. Knox won 16 A,s but not sure on score. Further to earlier good reports on 1st game Knox forwards dominated and it was...

Knox students on the site tonight obviously - Dim Franze had a good game in the 2nds on Saturday but he is going to have to find a fair bit to start in the 1st's this week - and at least three of the Knox 2's pack are bigger than him so he is not quite that big.

Any result from Cranbrook Stannies game?

Selectors obviously had a problem with 13 - Watson was there for the CHS match and from then on couldn't make the 2nds or reserves. Oh for a kicker like Halfpenny.......

Any detailed reports on the 1's? I gather O'Donnell put his best forward in his challenge to Smerdon - what about the other contentious selection on this forum - Paek v Ellwood-Hall?

Anyone know who are Year 11's in the CAS 1's? Correct that Smerdon and Burkett were U16 last year so maybe Year 11? Pierce and Watson also Year 11.
