Then share it around, each week a different captain… remember “everyone is a leader”Except the game management protocols from Rugby Australia require each team to nominate a captain.
Newington 28 Scots 27, first major win4 to go Scots take the lead
What a game. I told this forum that View should not be taken lightly and they’ve proved that. View were easily the better team and Kings are lucky not to have another 2 pies put on them.Riverview 26 Kings 17
Newington 28 Scots 27, first major win
Personally thought the game was a lot closer then what you thought. Kings had a lot of scrappy play and didn’t play to their potential but still kept it close through the match. Someone on this forum must explain to me how the 2nds 12 is not the starting 12 for the 1st’s.What a game. I told this forum that View should not be taken lightly and they’ve proved that. View were easily the better team and Kings are lucky not to have another 2 pies put on them.
Wow. It really seems like they have found their form in perfect time. I did have them tipped this week but only to win just. Good on them!What a game.

Such a great day to be a Newington supporter. Completely agree with your comments on the game, but personally Newington were the much better team, and there wasn't a whole lot Newington could do against Scot's rolling maul.Newington, despite some poor handling, particularly in the line outs, where I counted the loss of 3 their line outs, did look the better side.When Newington ran the ball they were penetrating and gave Scots, the imagine they were somewhat pedestrian. Scots for their part were absolutely lethal in their rolling maul, scoring at least two tries, where they overpowered the defending Newington players.
What is now evident, is that Newington could have put on a bigger score against Scots, but let themselves down. Better team combinations need to be worked on. Together, with maintaining the momentum in favour of Newington, rather letting a team like Scots back in the game, lost line outs were the most obvious for me.Once Newington were in the Scots half, there was a sense that something was on for the Newington attack. But this lost of momentum, really did lead to lost opportunities. Nevertheless, Newington displayed a capacity to attack, but were less forceful in defence. But the real standouts were the Newington backs and their willingness to attack with pace and precision. The forwards unlike against Kings, got the platform this week, and I thought did a good job of recycling the ball.
There is a lot of improvement still needed in this Newington side, but a ton of potential, so critics of this team. Beware that Newington has taken a giant step forward. How much can Newington improve, is a question that rival teams will discover for themselves.

I must admit I am somewhat disconnected from the College these days dusk. So filling in the names of the New players, as you have done, really helps with the detail of the my match review.
Just my usual request, Dusk, any chance of getting A team results.Particularly, the 16As, As Newington and Scots have dominated this age group since the 13s.
