ISA 2023

Pats 40 - Gregs 26

Gregs were down 21 - 14 at the break and showed good physicality throughout the match. Gregs 12 went down injured in the second half but thought he and the 8 led the team with tough defence and good ball playing. Pats showed pure quality in the backline and sheer ticker up front. Conti and Woods both contributed to tries and Pats centres were especially tough in defence. This game for Pats definitely shows they are contenders for the ISA as on their day this team can gel to play a very skilful brand of rugby

Yes most definitely, with trial match scores being very impressive like a reasonably close game with CAS powerhouses like knox and waves I think they will be the front runners alongside Oakhill. I'd say Oak v Augs would be the match up of the ISA season.

KWS v Gregs is close behind for game of the season

The results and scores I have from Pats v Gregs are:
13A and 15A Gregs Win - don't know score
14A Pats W - don't know score
16A Pats W 15 - 12
Second XV Pats W 19 -7
First XV Pats W 40 - 26
Looks like all of those scores from the Pats and Auggies first round home games have already been put on the ISA website.
Correction from above Pats Second XV score is recorded as 21 - 7.

From what I’ve seen on the isa website, Auggies clean swept pius across all age groups. Wow.

Wasn't expecting that type of margin for Oakhill vs Stannies, 50 points difference is a massacre.

Expected Auggies to comfortably account for Pius, a few Pius tries in there although might show some promise.

Pats and Gregs is somewhat what I expected. I wasn't expecting Pats to beat them by such a margin, seemed like a high-scoring game but Pats experience got them ahead of the strong Gregs team, who were unfortunate to lose key players in a crucial part of them game. Hats off to Pats for keeping patience and scoring well-executed tries.

Apparently Kinross vs Joeys 5ths, does anyone know the scoreline of that? You'd hope Kinross get up.

I believe Kinross got up by about 10 or so.

You have to wonder about Gregs hey. I hope they're not deferring to type. The trials saw all ISA teams scoring good wins and I hope they are able to do the same in the comp proper. I just wonder how much of that loss for them was a subconscious predetermined outcome.

I thought auggies played spectacular over pius with a big win. Big performance from Austin Hulley as an impact player coming off the bench for Sam Blank, seems as though Sam has been getting a few cramps in games... looks like he needs some pickle juice!

Oakhill vs Stannies Report:
Bathurst turned on the weather for the afternoon of rugby. Sun out and about 18 degrees. Oakhill started the game with a dominant opening 10 minutes. Both forwards and backs playing well together. Oakhill scrum was starting to dominate with the referee ensuring safety for the boys. Oakhill opened with a nice try to the backs and a good side line conversion. Stannies the had a period of time when they gained some good possession which ended with a good try to the backs out wide and a sideline conversion. 7 all after about 15 minutes. Oakhill then proceeded to score another 4 unanswered tries before half time. Some good work controlling possession with the backs scoring some good tries from deep. The forwards then started to control the ball and saw them also finish with a couple of tries before halftime. Half time score 29 - 7. The second half started and the Stannies crowd tried to get their team back in the game. Oakhill scores a quick try after half time and quietens the crowd. For the next 10 minutes the referee then gives Stannies, 10 consecutive penalties. He was being very pedantic to Oakhill about offsides at the breakdown. Oakes were too enthusiastic during this period in defence and probably deserved a few penalties against them. However, Oakhill defence stood solid during this period across the park and denied the Stannies attack. Momentum then shifted back with Oakhill gaining possession and scoring another 3 tries to finish the game.
