CAS Rugby 2025

Sadly not accurate for Knox lower years. The 13s and 14s struggled badly for numbers and poor results followed. Great spirit in the teams but a worry for future years. This year’s opens and 16s will be strong though.

As someone else said maybe the new DOR can revitalise the program.
Who is new DOR at Knox

Both; came from UK two years ago with lengthy rugby experience and has been involved in u14s & teaching at Knox since.

Shout out to John Rownes; an amazing innings heading up Rugby at Knox. Couldn’t meet a nicer bloke who treated every player (and wider stakeholders) with kindness and care regardless of team and age. Enjoy the Long Service Leave JR
 
Ill be 23 years out of school next year and my last CAS game I watched was in 2013 Knox v Barker due to relocating to London....Appreciate how early we are but does anyone have any predictions for next year? Will it be the same 3 battling it out for 1st or will there be a smokey coming through? Have a great christmas all.

It’s been a battle of 2 over the last 8 years; Barker & Waverley with cycles of recruitment seemingly being the difference….. with the completion starting earlier and then the ISA/CAS rounds last it could be different
 
Fair enough and let's hope for a competitive season... We lost to Waverley for the first time and our only CAS loss since 15A to Knox in 99... Bit of a shame to see that my alumni is bringing in players to fill the spots of kids who had earnt them throughout. My only understanding is that the kids aren't from Rugby playing families anymore.. Looking forward to reading more in the new year.

I understand that Barker is has a pretty strong recruitment drive at the moment. I know of two new boys that have decided to go there after considering other offers. They will be in the u15s for 2025 and look very promising. Not sure if this is also occurring in other age groups as well.

LOL.

It's some recruiting from Western Sydney. I have no doubt that the two boys will end up in League however they will be a benefit to the Barker Rugby Program for sure

Some earlier predictions here: wonder if the OPs (like me!) have any changed thoughts?

Well well well...

After a lengthy off-season, the Pork has left the Den and returned to the G&G forums! I'd be wrong if I said that I'm not excited about this upcoming season and the new combined competition I've been hearing about!

Without bias, I truly think that the best watch this year will be the Waverley vs Cranbrook clash (Their rivalry is always a cracka!). But I'm sure the Brooky boys will get up!!! #OCA #Tonga

Anyways, All the best to the rest of the CAS in what will be a very successful year ahead.

From 215, yours truly. TPPG22

Big fan. Well done all for doing something and not just taking shots at the GPS for going 2 rounds which overall has been a success for that comp and I don't see it changing.

This is a boost for all Schools Rugby in NSW. Shouldn't say all because I want to see CHS get back to a degree of competitiveness but this a good step.
