NSW AAGPS 2021

Joeys played 40 games yesterday (only the 16Cs couldn't get a game) against 11 different schools. Of these 40 games, 21 were against Scots who won 4 of them - 2nds 12-10, 4ths 19-12, 16Ds 26-14 (v Joeys Es) and 14Ds 14-10 (v Joeys Es).

A Grade games were all won by Joeys: 1sts 31-14. 16As 33-7, 15As 47-0, 14As 45-12 and 13As 60-0.




These results against Scots don't surprise me. Their are massive questions being asked by both parents and concerned old boys around the lack of success in the Scots rugby program over the last 4 /5 years, poor training, lack of technical development and other issues. Already this season the Scots results aren't great.

V Riverview 42% win ratio. (Combination A+B teams only 10% win ratio for Scots)
V Joeys 26% wins ratio (Combination A+B teams only 10% win ratio)
V Shore 60% wins ratio and 50% A+B win ratio

There is a massive ground swell happening at BH with some serious questions being asked of the rugby program and the people that head the program.

I think Will Rohrsheim from Shore will get the nod instead of Nelson at 9. Jackson Stiel from Shore will be in the mix for the 1 spot, along with Barrett from Joeys who was one of their best against Riverview. I think Hemsworth from Kings will be the 11, pipping O’Jorg. M’Jorg a lock at 15.

Hey Scrumcap, TBC here.

Bold call throwing in two shore names there. I haven't seen much of Rohrsheim, nor heard much about him. How does he compare to nelson? The 9/10 combination of Nelson/Bowen seems rather appetising from a cohesion point of view.

OK. No more posts on why certain posters got banned, or why they should be back. Most bans are for accumulated infractions and in most cases those who get them know full well what is on, and more importantly, off limits.
All we can do is (repeatedly) tell people to familiarise themselves with the rules.
If people in question want to have a discussion about their ban / warning they can do it privately.

Rohrsheim has been round the traps in junior rugby, regularly a Sydney and Waratahs rep. Outstanding pass, good defender, will have a snipe but rarely gets caught with it. Has a solid kicking game. But most of all just great service. I think Nelson is good, but can overplay his hand, and not as consistent in all the above.

Btw, I think if O’Donnell doesn’t play the Riverview v Shore game could be a lot tighter than people think.

I have no allegiance to View being a Newington Old Boy, however, I have no question riveriview even in the case of no o'donnel will role shore over. No mckenzie for shore, as well as 10 returning and a strong foward pack put view lighyears ahead of shore.

And you know what we say to that lads

Anyone know if Max Jorgo is fit for this Saturday


Max Jorgo is back and firing on all cylinders. Also Joeys first-choice 9 Ben Dalton is back from his broken hand from earlier this season, which has prevented him playing any of the trial games.

You know that when you reply, you don't need to announce who you are, as we can see. Just a thought.

I believe shore have flown quite under the radar and may have a strong team. But riverview has some incredible depth, with odonnell going off against joeys. They decided to put the twos wing on and boy did he deliver. Also i believe the view 10 from 2020 (not bowen) who was in year 10 at the time has been in out of the firsts, he has put a strong case to make a GPS side even though playing seconds for a few games. He's a very versatile player with the ability to play anywhere in the backline.
Riverview's depth is very crucial if they want to win the prem as injuries will undoubtedly prevail and they need people able to fill those key roles, which is what they done.

It should be a good showdown between Jorgensen and Taukamo at Stanmore this weekend. Whoever comes up with the goods will cement their name for GPS #15 jumper.

HB, Gordon Bray as a Touchie, that's gold! Bob Egerton as a coach at Kings is interesting too. Bob taught science and Ag at Riverview in the late 80's and was playing well for Sydney U, before being called up to the Wallabies. I hear he has been teaching/coaching at New for a while now.
 
A rare year with no SJC players.

Gordon Bray is such a legend.

Didn't Shore lose to Oakhill earlier in the season?

Correct. Oakhill beat Shore by 2 points. Scrumcap also has a point in that View looked completely different once O'Donnell was rested. For a kid who apparently was 1st game back from a serious injury he was outstanding.

Not to worry Joker. I am just so out of touch. I know nothing about TAS this year nor indeed the thirds in general. I have been covided! I can tell you that TAS and Canberra Grammar attended a rugby camp at Kinross (photo), that the TAS under 12 carnival continued but limited this time to regional teams because of covid and that TAS's first female head is both a rugby international and a qualified first grade ref. Perhaps there is some hope there?
