Will need to watch the replay but referee came across a tad over zealous with his whistle.

yes he was however I prefer not to comment on the referee’s performance.

Let’s talk the Dark Empire. Preseason favorites with many. What is causing this talent packed armada to stutter and splutter as they have. Scots supporters, what gives? Please do not single out players by name. Example. The 10 will need to look to adding a better kicking game to his direction.

View attachment 19231

Unfortunately the Scots rugby program is a complete car crash which is in life support being driven by an L player. Unfortunately Joker in the past 2 seasons it got a lot worse. I think you just need to have a massive clean out of management start from scratch. Bring a DOR in who has been successful in running a grade or colts program. So many fundamental not being addressed

A Somewhat prescient post though don’t you think. Unbackable favourites done before the halfway mark.

 

[The Front Rower]

I’m so disappointed for the boys. Individually a fantastically talented age group of whom we are family friends of several.
This really brings into question the overall program, the Opens coaches, and the selections.
Still six games to go so I hope they turn it around.

Spot on selections. Lack of coaching overall across TSC rugby program. Poor leadership. Also the 1sts missed Leo Jacques he adds so much spark

Is it valid to say that if players like Large (S) or Cleverly (N) came back to AAGPS footy mid-season, that some of these players above could loose their spots?

There is no denying Cleverly’s class, but I cant see him getting in there. The back row is so competitive. Logan, Dempsey and Fonua are arguably the 3 form players in the comp right now (Rodwell would be in the mix too). We will see when he returns but its tight.

it sucks if they turned 2 of those unlucky close losses into wins they'd definitely be in contention

IMO Shore JUST beat TKS, its not like they thrashed TKS. Both scored 4 Tries but they converted all their tries and scored a penalty. That's their only win thus far and I think that will be their only win this season.

Clock was paused at view with 30 seconds left for 10 minutes while shore lead and the game ends as soon as view score?

I need to add “the clock was paused” to my flowchart , thank you thesolicitor

Shore in 24 is the best 1st XV ever where all their best players peaked 2 - 3 years earlier. Shame that.

I back them to win 3 more

 

[lineout.lunch]

Fowler will be 10, form full back is Palmi and Osbourne won’t be 3. Also, 0 chance Conick is picked at 12.

Who will play 3 over Osborne?

Graham (I)? Taggart (J)? Gough (J)?

I am glad you have some New boys there, and no disrespect but have you done the proper schoolboy rugby analysis?

Graham is class but Brial and is the only reason Scots are somewhat competitive and Greer is pure class. Gough was close, but Conicks play and Goal kicking has been unmatched. Taggart is a tough out, hes probably next in.

Every other 3 in 1’s and half the 3’s in 2’s.

I’m with you solicitor. Weird how this poor Joeys bloke can be part of such a successful rugby school and still be so insecure about it all.

GPS won’t be worried about goal kicking… and he is no where near the best 12

Please tell me you’re taking the piss. How can you say that after Shore narrowly lost to the top of the table 17-14. As well as this Joeys had the home field advantage, with what I might say was one of the biggest, if not the biggest home crowds of the year.

Shore’s issue is securing and keeping a narrow lead until the final whistle, but I guarantee they will win a multitude of games to come this season.
