I'm happy to accept the mistake about him playing 12, which Jersey was he playing in for the game? Because when I read the Kings lineup it stated he was at 12.

Just watched the replay, the New 15 was very good in attack. He needs to work on defence though but understandable if that was his first game in 15. It was the 10 / 12 combo that caused all the problems, probably aided by the absence of Young who wouldn’t have allowed as much room to run.

Wow!
What a performance.
In a thrilling match against Shore, Aiden Gow made his highly anticipated debut for the First Fifteen Scots rugby team, leaving spectators in awe with his exceptional skills and natural talent. In a display of sheer brilliance, Aiden managed to score not one, but two remarkable tries, showcasing his remarkable speed, strength, and agility. With only three touches of the ball, he left the opposition struggling to keep up with his lightning-fast pace. Aiden's performance on the field undoubtedly solidified his reputation as a promising rugby player with a bright future ahead. His quickness, strength, and incredible instincts make him a force to be reckoned with, leaving fans and teammates eager to witness more of his extraordinary talent in the games to come.

Mate, I can't help but think you're blowing this out of proportion. A simple query/comment was made and you are ranting. Looking through your posting history, there is some 'poking and proding' behaviours that are simply out of place in a discussion about rugby. Seriously

He is a true talent, and will be back for 2024 aswell. His defense is a bit of a liability though something that can easily be worked on. Newington utilised their 12 to a great degree (something that has been lacking for years). Funnily enough, the inside center usually plays 2nd XV but got moved up to the 1sts due to injuries. Will be hard to replace him in upcoming games.

Ontini Large from Scots who is playing 1stXV needs to fit into the team somewhere maybe 15 or 12.

Has Ata played much Hooker? I know he throws the line outs but I have only seen him at Prop. After seeing View v Kings I'd be picking Ata at 2 if I was a GPS selector due to his throwing.

He wore 2 and played a large portion of the game there last Saturday Vs Joeys, only switching to prop late in the game.

Can throw and has played most of his time at #2.

People seem to be looking past the intentional knockdown by the Kings 10 in the 53rd minute that should have been a yellow card. A shocking call by the ref could have had a massive effect on the game especially because it is one of King's key players and without him, I believe the King's attack is much much worse.
Does anyone else agree?

Good morning....
Round 4 tips are open.
Last week taught us that this competition is very close and any team on their day can upset another.
This week is really no different with the away teams all with a chance.
Is there a gimme?
Good luck with your predictions.

I'll decide with the heart again, motivated by a desire for upsets, strangely I will go against principal and tip Scots for the first time ever.
Scots + 10
Joeys + 5
Shore +3
Good round of GPS Rugby. Who will lead at the break ? Kings are looking good but can be beaten and will have to play a desperate Scots and possibly a winless Joeys last round.
Tips :
Scots by 5 ( upset of the round. Scots forwards can match Kings for size but can their backs put a score on Kings ? )
View by 7 ( the River boys will be keen to bouce back and keep Joeys winless )
New by 24( at home and after a great win away, possibly with Farr-Jones/Rodwell back, may blow out )

Anyone got an updated ladder for 1s and 2s?

Go to the AAGPS website, click on Rugby, click on Ladder, click on 2023 1sts or 2nds
Three word that should not be said too often however :
I'm off Joeys ( this year !)
They lack size, playing too side to side ( as mentioned in previous posts, need to tweak their attack ) and have had crucial injuries ( Jorgo/Young ) at bad times. Must win every game to have a chance, but can't see it happening. The other schools are smelling victory and it will continue this week against the View boys.
Kings are favs still yet still 7 games to go. Playing well, getting a good lead but may struggle towards the end of season. They have good depth which may see them last.
Shore as always will fight hard and have some talent but .............
Scots hopefully will be the "fly in the ointment" as they have the talent and if things click can beat any school ( ie comeback against Joeys ) but I think it's between the ears for them.
New , if they win their next two against Shore and Scots will go into the break with confidence but will need to beat one or both View and Kings away after the break. Big ask but they've been in both games.
View are still a big chance. Tough loss against Kings but hopefully they'll learn some lessons. Huge game against Joeys this week and a must win as they'll face them at HH after the break. Have the team, heads up boys.

Joeys will be very different after the break. There is a possibility that Doyle and Jorgo both return, a number of other players will filter back in as well. So if they can pull a few wins out of the bag over the next few weeks..... it could well be game on. It's not impossible, to have played 3 for no wins and have a differential of -2 tells you how tight the comp is.
