Understand J,

Initially I didn't think that but you changed my mind!
Forget it, NOW about tomorrow, it is certainly has all the hallmarks of a beauty.

1. 1st CAS game.
2. Bright sunny day, so expansive footy you would think.
3. The local derby, and I have always said that Cranbrook seem to step up against the Waves, regardless of the particular team in any year.
4. Cranbrook are confident, so are the Waves!
5. Big crowd expected.

The other 2 games look a bit lop sided, and hopefully this will will be as well, Waves by 20! ;)

The underdog story drives Cranbrook to give it their all in this rivalry. I'm expecting some big performances from Girle (5) and Jackson (8) who's chomping at the bits to get back out on the field after being sidelined with a finger injury for a few weeks. Great day for footy, where else would you want to be on a Saturday arvo.

Brook by 5!!!

Any chance you have a Waves team list WLF? Interested to see how they lineup.

Great to see a few CAS graduates in the junior Wallabies side. Best of luck to Hooper, Slack-Smith, and Morrison.

in fairness, this was when Barker were an average rugby school, before they started importing their 1stXV

They'd just come off winning 3 CAS premierships in the prior 5 years.
A lot of talent finished in 2013/14 and the next round of very good players were about 1-2 years behind.

The depth of players is reducing each year as the demographics of Sydney change. Rugby was compulsory in year 5 and I think year 6 up until about 2015. These days there seems like almost more sport choices than kids at school.

Barker Aloys lower grades:
13s competitive (Aloys best age group performance wise) but both to Barker
14Bs big Barker win, competitive game in the As but W to Barker.
16As massive win to Barker 45-0.
But in the 15s, a battling age group for Aloys, SAC won 46-0, against was said to be Barker Bs (or possible a mixed team, with a few As, lot of Bs and a few Cs). So that match up issue remains tricky.
Aloys 12-0 in the 3rds.
Over to Rod for updates from Willoughby (or Northbridge, if Barker haven't fixed their fixtures sheet).
