ISA ROUND THE GROUNDS

BEST...SchoolImage
HOME GROUNDOakhill
Located on site with plenty of grass to sit on. Great viewing from almost any point as well as all fields in close proximity to each other, and most importantly, in close proximity to the BBQ.

BBQ (MOST IMPORTANT)Oakhill
Great variety, never light on the bacon and the BBQ Dads never mind a cheeky chin wag. Always a good time when you get to visit Oakhill.

1ST XV JERSEYSt Patrick's
A clean all black jersey, matched with the black shorts and socks. Silky look might I say....

AWAY TRIPSt Stanislaus':
Who doesn't love the away trip to Hogwarts? Boys on the bus at 4am, immaculate vibes and always a great day when visiting. Nothing beats the Maccas trip on the way home.

SUPPORTERSTIED (OAKHILL AND STANNIES)
Both schools always show up in numbers for home games. Stannies definitely get the edge for away games as they always travel as a group, although it's difficult to go past that Oakhill crowd on Gala Day.

RIVALRYOakhill vs St Augustines
Hard to go past this one. Almost every year these two have been competitng for that Rugby premiership. The rivalry extends through all grades, as well as through different sports. Certainly will be the game of this year at Rat Park in a couple months time.

Never had a bad day down at Oxford Falls, pitch (main) is always in top condition whether it's wet or dry.

Wow you appear to be claiming rock star status again for your team, before they defeat all comers.
I might add, this years talent generally isn't anywhere near as good as previous years, IMO.
But you can only beat what is in front of you, so best of luck to the boys from Auggies, and all schools.

Perhaps Waverley and Knox would be interested in moving to ISA? ;)
If Barker invested in their juniors throw them a boat as well

Guys, call the new comp what you will CAS/ISA, how about CIS, now that's a marketing idea(funny that) but who cares as long as the comp is balanced and every/nearly every game is balanced.

Hi All, as a proud rugby enthusiast like all of you are. I come from the gps forum asking a question or 2. That being you guys have 7 schools competing for the isa shield correct? That creates 3 games! What happens to the other school do they get a bye in between? Hope someone can help.

I'll go out on a limb and argue that the best ISA rivalries lie outside of the ISA!

Oakhill/Barker - Hills rivalry not all that old but always tense - especially seeing that there has always been chat around one school pilfering the other of talent

Pats/Trinity - a rivalry that dates back decades. Both schools could lose every other game in the year. but if they beat the other, it was a great season.

Kinross/TAS - The two distant country cousins ripping each other to shreds

Pius/Aloys - who owns the blue and gold? The Ross Fagan Shield up for grabs

Auggies/Waverley - I'd argue a fairly recent phenomenon but a battle of the beaches is always a good game

Stannies and Gregs? I'm sure they have an opponent they love to beat too
