Who in particular do you believe from the Scots seconds should be in the firsts?There are also kids in the seconds that should be in the 1StXV poor team selections as well ….

It does appear that the Scots 2XV are playing great footy and by the looks of it enjoying it but I do doubt that boys have turned down playing for the firsts. Interested as to where you are hearing this.Already Boys have openly said to the TSC 1stXV coaches they don't want to go up! it's pretty bad at TSC......mind you every season seems to be the same.... nothing changes
Kings HM doesn't, but the 2IC did for a long time, he used to coach the 2nds but doesn't this year. I'm not sure if he has picked up a team in a lower age group. I'd say all Kings teachers are given a coaching responsibility of some sort, but that covers the other sports obviously. I don't think Phippsy coaches a team but that would be because he has too much else to do, not because he doesn't want to. There are 'gappies' and other outsiders e.g. Charlie Cale helped out with the 15As a few years ago. The Hilgendorfs certainly run the show at the top end though.
Give Weir and Sinclair a go. They are both year 11 boys and will give them good experience for 2025.Who in particular do you believe from the Scots seconds should be in the firsts?
I agree they have been great, Weir especially and it will be great to watch him in a couple of weeks playing for one of the u16s GPS teams. Sinclair has been great but I do think that Will Johnson is the best option for playing 10 and have Large at fullback. What about Bartlett he's been good in the 2nds.Give Weir and Sinclair a go. They are both year 11 boys and will give them good experience for 2025.
100 not true. Back to class.Any truth in the rumours that the Scots coaches don't actually pick the 1sts lineup....it's someone higher up that does?
This person is not hearing this, they are making it up. I would suggest a disgruntled parent who is trying their best to derail the program.It does appear that the Scots 2XV are playing great footy and by the looks of it enjoying it but I do doubt that boys have turned down playing for the firsts.

Maybe few more year 11 as well Just good experience for them for 2025I agree they have been great, Weir especially and it will be great to watch him in a couple of weeks playing for one of the u16s GPS teams.

I believe intentionally collapsing it. They couldn’t do anything to stop it movingAny idea what for? Did not see the maul collapse
There is a fine line though between playing to give kids that deserve to be there and good enough to be there a go and just giving in for the year. Hopefully they don't give up and admit defeat as they still have a lot to play for.Maybe few more year 11 as well Just good experience for them for 2025
Grover bullied new halfback when they played. Levels to this game.He's good, but Grover has the best pass off the deck. Binnie would be close too.

We all now know that each round is hard.
Big match at Hunters Hill as the cattle dogs await the wookie hordes.

You play your best team to win each match - TSC fell in to the 'let's give experience to Y11s' trap last year - the best team is not always the best individuals either.There is a fine line though between playing to give kids that deserve to be there and good enough to be there a go and just giving in for the year.

Their form at the moment is great in my opinion. I would love to hear from you who you believe has a better pack then them if you think it is so "de lu lu".The idea that Riverview has the best forward pack is genuinely de lu lu. Do you need help?
