Apologies - I had the game on in the background and wasn't following properly. Edited above.

CAS got it wrong by not picking:
..
Time for a clean out. Kids are losing potential careers from these poor selections. Something must be done.

Not hard to see where your allegiances lie. But at the end of the day selectors can only pick based on the games played.

It's unfortunate that the CAS is only playing one round this year when GPS are playing two (CAS has played two round comps in the past) and that Knox v Waverley is in term three.

But on the games played, Knox had two big wins, with the forwards being dominant, Waverley one tight and one decent win.

I suspect the selectors also talk to the coaches to rank their teams vs an average 1sts player and past players. Seemingly Dowling (from the Rep game correctly) and Aboud (unfortunately dropped out for Ryan) were the ones pushed.

That’s a unique take.

Knox have their 3 hardest CAS games next term. Waverley have already played two of their hardest games.

So only the players coaches push- coaches that aren’t part of the selection process- are the ones considered?

So Cranbrook coaches didn’t push Ah-Colt?
And the only reason Aboud was selected was because the Waverley coaches highlighted him?

 

[moa999]

That and what the selectors view with their own eyes. Selectors can only select based on what they have seen, feedback from others including their own and opposition coaches, and the results.

The 2nd round counts against you for saying that Waverley has played two hard games.
Knox trounced Trinity. Trinity beat Cranbrook.
Waverley only just beat Cranbrook.

Had Waverley put 30 points on Cranbrook I suspect the selections might have been different.

Kaleb Ah-Colt- originally selected as CAS reserve.. makes Gen Blue u18.

Sam Niulala not even in the CAS firsts makes Gen blue u18’s.

Gen blue staff highlighting how poor CAS selections are again.

Gen blue staff highlighting how poor CAS selections are again.

So I presume then that the CAS 1sts #3 and #4 didn't make Gen Blue.

Oh wait.

Congrats to all CAS boys who made the squad.

 

[Erastos Luccassen]

How many CAS lads made the Gen Blue then? I can't find the squad anywhere

Kaleb Ah-Colt, hats off to you. Started in CAS 2s off the bench, worked and played his backside off, and is now being named in the u18 Gen Blue team. Awesome achievement, he deserves it.

Yes, well done. Mind you, well done to Goddard, too.

Anyone have scores from the u16s CAS who played today?

Lost first game to GPS 2s 26-7, trailed CCC 14-12 with 5 to go before 2 late tries to win 24-14

I have to admit that I get lost with all the representative teams these days, but most of the CAS players seem to have ended up in one side or another. I'm vaguely nostalgic for the old days of NSW 1sts and NSW 2nds.

 

[schoolboyfooty]

Very impressive from Ruben Stock who is in the Waratahs u18 squad and also in the Australia u20 team in South Africa right now.
Really is a young man to watch out for in the future
