FT. 53/19. The best side won but no cudos to this ref

 

[Brucewillis]

Not even the import XV could come near the level of Knox!

Is there somewhere to watch the replay ?

Probably all the barker parents were busy today

Yeah I heard they're at Cranbrook teaching the boys the laws of mauling. It's why they won today.

I didn’t know the students went to school on Saturdays?

Imagine having a full team of imports and losing by 34 points

Well done Waverley, an emphatic win today and a deserved unbeaten premiership. I think the order this year was exactly right - Waverley, Knox, Trinity, Barker, Cranbrook, Aloysius (although a few people up near Hornsby may think otherwise).

Waverley's muscle in the forwards made all the difference today. They were 30% bigger than their opponents, and we all know what a good big player does to a good small player. If Trinity had 10% of the possession I'd be surprised. Waverley might have won by more had they let the backs do their thing instead of cluttering up the back line with props, because the finishing in the backs was clinical and they had plenty of speed. I thought Waverley's best were the 8, 15 and the wingers - though the tight five as a whole set things up well by monopolising the ball, and the 9 (although he was given an armchair ride by his forwards) has a very nice pass that gets the ball wide, quickly.

For Trinity the best was 15 Mitchell, whose defence was tremendous and who ran well when given the rare chance. 8 Niulala was good, while 9 Hatton-Ward worked hard but had almost no ball to do anything with.

Tried to find you WLF, but no luck! Spent much of my afternoon next to a Waverley supporter who doesn't know that under current CAS rules a scrum can't "push em back over the dead ball line!!!"

Well done Waves, you've made us old-boys proud.

I wonder if Waverley will get the chance to play against the winner of the Queensland GPS like Barker did last year?

12. McDonald (Barker)
13. Enasio (Knox)
14. Harper (Waverley)
15. Morshead-Fidel (Waverley)

imo would think that if this team was the selected one for CAS they would've come much closer to GPS.

Interesting to see where all the people saying Waverley were going to finish 4th and 3rd have gone.
