Pius filling void spots with talent from 2nds and 16As such as Harrison Schuster known as the best sealer in the ISA and a proud member of the advanced sarto centre program, allowing him to be known as the King Of Mobility.

With the strikeforce more likely to be lead by Charlie Woolf who has become quite the veteran of the SPX 1st XV, and the razzle dazzle from Kobi Mendel with his ball running skills like no other centre in the ISA, those two will certainly be role models that the Class of 25/26 will look up to creating a force that could potentially see them beating the recent "heavy-hitters" of Augs and Oakhill, to have a potential look at grabbing their first ISA title for a while. Pius will be no joke next year, with the squad getting gradually better with their program that has been improving heaps over the past year and the results have shown. Serious contenders to contest the top 3 for a spot up the top.

with SPX coming 4th in 1st XV this year which is impressive but if you have a look at the 16s and seconds results SPX just dont have the depth to compete with big hitters OAK and AUGS

some of the Auggies trial games have been released, including a fixture against Riverview, Shore, Trinity and possibly two other teams including Scots. Any further information on this?

would hope you actually knew something about the pius team before posting this, The 2 year 11s both made ISA teams (16s and ISA 1s) and the year 10 also making isa 16s. 16A hooker this year was also ISA 16 1s. Think with this calibre of player they are pretty dominant

Hence why I asked what makes them dominant. Thanks for providing some context in the form of their current teams instead of just their year groups.
With some schools (not talking any specific ISA/CAS/GPS as it would change each year) I would disagree with this statement as their 16s teams are not all that strong when they’re best players play up already. It can be quite a hard age group to gauge the success of a future opens team.
It certainly helps them though prepare for what’s to come when these kids are given opportunities to play at a higher level such as NSW Schools and Tahs

I've noticed not all of the 1st and 2nd games are available on YouTube for some schools such as SPX, Stannies, and Kinross, does anyone know where some of these games would be available to watch?

Yes, they were also named the number 1 team in Australia, beating out the likes of GPS champions Shore by 1 position. What a team.

interesting how theres 6 south African teams ahead of them. I get the quality of schoolboy rugby in south Africa is the best in the world but you wouldn't think its that much better then the rest

Agreed, the top 3 all being South African schools shows there may be a slight bias to SA in the list, you would have to think Auggies, Shore or any of the top NZ teams would give those top 6 SA schools good run for their money.

Selected players will assemble for a camp in Canberra later this month, where they will compete in trials against an Australian Schools squad.

A 26-man squad will then travel to NZ in October to face the New Zealand Barbarians and New Zealand Schools.
