Well, almost. I understand that Stannies decided not to make the trip to Sydney so the St Augs v Stannies games at Narrabeen aren't going ahead. I heard though that St Augs have arranged for their 1sts, 2nds and A and B teams to play against Joeys and the rest of their teams are playing against a variety of other schools.

Great effort by the St Augs sports staff to pull all that together in a couple of days.

And they pulled the pin on St Greg's going up there last week. Stannies 1st XV playing a trial against a Dubbo colts side in Dubbo tonight. Not sure what the rest of the teams are up too...
Rest of this weekends trials are;
St Greg's vs St Piux
St Pat's vs Oakhill

I believe that all schools in the Central West have been told not to head over the hill until further notice. Kinross, Stannies, Scots All Saints. Can anyone confirm?

 

[Cuz]

No Kinross in the Div 1 draw at all

 

[Central Best]

Kinross decided back in April they would not take part in this years ISA competition because of covid and the issues and costs with social distancing on buses.
Stannies have been training and preparing to play as normal unfortunately with the latest covid outbreak firstly in Campbelltown and now other parts of Sydney and under advisement from NSW health meant there was no way Gregs could travel to Bathurst and Stannies to Sydney.
Stannies now playing in the local CW under 18 Colts competition not for points just to get a few games.
I believe most of Kinross side is playing with Orange Emus in the same competition.

Does that mean no Stannies at all this year, or not just during the trials?

 

[Central Best]

Unfortunately Stannies will not be playing in the ISA competition this year, this second outbreak of covid could not have come at a worse time for Stannies rugby.

Score in yesterday's fixtures?

1st XV PIUS beat Greg’s 43-22
16A’s Pius won by 1 point, not sure the score.

 

[DaSchmooze]

I believe Oakhill got up over St. Pats - scores were close

For all of the ISA school rugby followers, Clutch TV have posted up the St.Pius vs Oakhill 1st XV College game from yesterday on youtube:

Auggies 46 to St Greg's 0

I watched the Greg's game online vs Pius the week before & thought it was ordinary. Last week wasn't any better. Lucky to have 15 players on the field at fulltime with some poor choices by a few players. I think we can give Auggies the trophy now & everyone else is playing for 2nd spot...

Cuz - where/ how did you see that game online? Clutch TV? thanks in advance...

St Pius game was on clutch TV. For Saturday just gone, I was there. Not sure if Greg's are streaming games online though... They were allowing 1 parent per player & they had to stay on the far side of the field to the students.

Jeez that Pius Oakhill game is a pretty ugly standard of footy. Is that what 1st XV rugby is like now.. no wonder Australian rugby is in the toilet.

 

[Cuz]

Any results from the weekend? I know Oakhill beat Greg's 20-7, & I think Greg's were pumped in just about every other game.

Augustines 45 to St Pat's 22 for 1st XV

Any Stannies followers here going to the Barker game tomorrow at Bathurst?
