They all play in the halves. Could maybe move Joe to fullback but can't accomodate all 4 in the starting line up
It's to my understanding that the four of these players were in the U16s Waratahs XV side in 2022 with all four players in the starting side and if I correctly recall the side defeated every single team dominantly through expansive and quick play crushing their QLD rivals in the final.

After a few hiccups earlier in the season, I've heard Riverview are looking good after putting up some good performances the last 3 weeks.
Joeys clearly the favourites at this point, but wonder if a few injuries would undo them

I don't know why Joeys are clear favourites...some indifferent trial form, albeit a couple of losses against 1st XV teams
I would expect a very close competition, similar to 1sts

3rd XV Trial 2 Report
Only four matches played on the weekend due to the adverse weather so still hard to predict the form leading up to the 3rd XV competition starting on 1 June.

St Augustines 2nd XV 10 d Joeys 3rd XV 7
I have always believed that playing teams of a higher grade in trials is excellent preparation for competition, and this match was the perfect example. A close contest in the wet with only three points the difference. While Joeys would be disappointed to lose this one they will front up well for future matches as they prepare for the season proper.

Scots 5th XV 27 d St Stanislaus 3rd XV 0
A good win to Scots 5ths while their 3rds played Scots All Saints. I think Scots will be starting the competition with some confidence in defending the premiership they won in 2023.

Shore 3th XV 12 d Knox 3rd XV 8
A good start to the season for Shore demonstrating that talk of improved depth at Shore is not just a rumour. Perhaps this is the year for Shore to make their presence felt in the 3rd XV competition.

Shore 4th XV 29 d High 1st XV 0
This result does not augur well for High in the upcoming competition. It has been recognised that their program has improved and strengthened in recent years and let's hope that's the case - they will be playing tougher teams than Shore's 4ths during this season.

A number of cracking trials next week as View host Shore, Scots host Kings, New host Joeys, Grammar host Pius and Oakhill host High.

INP
Keep in mind the Shore 4th XV game was called off with 15 minutes to go.

I have been thoroughly surprised by View's number 5 this season. He is a strong tackler and has a great running ability. it feels as though no one has looked at Riverview's forwards this season, so with that, i think he could definitely be playing GPS 1s or 2s if he works hard enough and has a good season, even with the immense competition in the forwards in the GPS.

Has anyone else seen this?

Cheers,

AG

Don't the lower opens (7ths to the highest) at Joeys, King's, View, whomever play for the Spaghetti Cup these days? Great competition when it ran.

Thoughts on the Kings 1st drawing with Newington on the weekend, especially after they beat Scots the favourites.

Few things to clear up...

Firstly, @Joker please count me in for the tipping comp, my tips are Scots +5, Shore +20, Newington +3. Cheers.


Secondly, Scots 3rd XV was not playing Stannies 3rd XV, it was Scots 5XV, Scots 3rds played Scots All Saints

Lastly, Scots seconds & firsts were not real teams. Players like Toby Brial, Leo Jaques, Charlie Ulcoq, etc (the senior players pretty much guaranteed a spot in firsts), were rested, giving players in the thirds, seconds and firsts a chance to show themselves. They also mixed around combinations to test things out. For example, Cody Clark (1XV prop) played first half in the seconds & second half in the firsts, Tom Sinclair (2XV flyhalf) played a half in the seconds and the firsts. Still, probably should've won by more, but I'm sure the players weren't really treating it as a real game.

Cheers,
Ollie Sinclair is the fly half for the twos his younger brother is tom

Anyone else think high should be relegated to the 4s comp. Shore dominated them on the weekend 29-0, the game also got cancelled 10 mins early. Hate to see schools like Joeys 3s when they verse them. High foward pack had 200 kilos on shore's and still seem to be dominated. The backs lacked fluency with skills poor. Watch this space
