FT: Joeys 43 Knox 17. 31 nil to Joeys in 2nd Half.

 

[Quick Hands]

According to Piglet on the CAS site, Newington running red hot over Trinity. 8 Tries to 1, As stated in an earlier post this Newington side is a far better team than results indicate.

Great timing with the GPS competition starting the week after next week's long weekend.

Was the wind a factor or fitness, or both or did the Joeys coach give a great half time address?

Waverly 42-10 over Shore (although Waverly scored a try right on the bell) out at Death Valley. Improved performance from Shore and refereeing was also a bit suspect.

Pies...the energy provided by the rabbit was key plus and threat of cold dinner if they lost kicked them along.

Nice surprises like this are the best surprises.

Two 16As were promoted to the 1sts for this game. Sounds like it's making a difference.

Their 10 was outstanding today, His first game back from injury , 12,13,14 just way to fast,

As the 34-0 nil score line suggests, Scots 3 were clearly the better team, but it wasn't quite one sided as the score would suggest.

The two teams were pretty equal in the forwards. It was the big and fast Scots backs throwing the ball round who did the damage. The TAS boys tackled well and never gave up, but when a tackle was missed Scots quickly gained an overlap. They also used the kick well on two occasions. On the few occasions when TAS could molest properly, weaknesses showed up.

TAS lacked penetration. ...

To my mind, and i don't pretend expertise now, the TAS backs weren't playing well today. There were too many handling errors, long passes, too much running back into traffic. There weren't the multiple passes and penetration that has made the TAS backs dangerous in recent years. On the positive side, they tackled and tackled, with Scots denying them the opportunity to settle and play a more open game.

Yeah, I agree with much of that assessment, Jim.
The forward clashes pretty much cancelled each other out.
The respective D’s, despite the lopsided scoreline, was quite solid on both sides of the field.
The conditions certainly affected all that were out there - frigid-as (espesh on delicate receiving fingers late in a half!), the wind turning the ball into a floating balloon on occasion, from throwing in hookers to both sets of halves!
But maybe because of that, the Scots lads trended to keep the Gilbert a little bit tighter as the match progressed.
I thought the real difference today was the directness of the Scots’ runners. They really pointed up way better than the lads from the Tablelands, forcing the TAS lads into having to work in overdrive in defense.

Can only think that the Scots’ 3’s will be chuffed-as to have chalked up that one straight away in the 3’s Comp proper.

As no doubt will those Grammarians, both current and old!, getting one over the Cerise and Blue. As someone else said, maybe it was QH?, ALL wins over the JoeBoys, are pretty special! Well done the Black & Yellow!

^^^you never beat joeys, occassionally you score more points

 

[Crackerjack]

You’ll might like this one then, IS.
Maybe there really are 5 Comp points up for grabs for anyone who bests Joeys on any given day in the 3’s?!!

^^^1 1/2 wins clear after 1 round!

And now for ‘the rest’ of the day’s results.

Congrats to ‘View getting up over Barker. Seriously, that is no mean feat this Season!

No duck eggs left to keep for any in the GPS or CAS in Season 2018.

Just in case Father Jim missed out on a printed version!
His TAS lads should feel pretty comfy in this Northern Tablelands (Arctic!) weather.
Wouldn’t surprise to see a fur seal blown in over the southern boundary fence!
Scots 3’s doing the job though. At oranges, Scots lead 15-0.

Yeah wow. There are at least 5 guys in Scots 3s who would make a decent account of themselves if thrown a 1sts jumper. Great depth.
