Any photos of the 2ndV Basketball Team from 2023? Would love to see it!!!
Ok, this fella is old but is the greatest schoolboy athlete in AAGPS history.
I had the honour to pick his memory recently.
Sharp as a tack and recalled even my dad who pushed the Joeys mile runner. Both broke the AAGPS record.

It's great to see that the majority of GPS 1XV and 2XV Teams are consistently ensuring their players refrain from unnecessary chatter on this forum, preventing any unwanted drama for their team and school.

Shore vs Scots @ THE BRIDGE
Battle of the Stars: Shore vs. Scots @ THE BRIDGE
I apologise for not doing post-game reviews I simply just didn't have the time however I will be doing them next week. For now I will be doing my game pre-views again. This is my first of all the 3 games expect the rest later in the week... They will all have a similar format but this one will have a Star Wars theme.
Preseason Jedi Masters
Far, far away a fierce battleground is set: THE BRIDGE. Champions being hailed pre-season, Shore and Scots find themselves lost in the cosmic turmoil of a season gone wrong. The squads, despite all efforts to uphold the destiny of their teams, have succumbed to dreadful defeat.
The Force Awakens: A Glimpse of the Galactic Showdown
As warriors of both teams gather from their waterfront palaces and ingest celebratory concoctions, the Shore boys of Stirling Bridge move towards their battlefield with hopes of redemption burning in their hearts. Meanwhile, the Scots seem disheartened by the dimness of their enthusiasm. But in this cosmic arena, where destiny is unpredictable and hyperspace is just another potato, one can never discount the power of the underdog.
Key Matchups: Clash of the Galactic Titans
Fitler Vs Conick - Battle of the Jedi Knights
In a cosmic shift, Fitler is thrown into the middle of the battleground as inside points to do battle. Master of the Force, his domination could spell doom for the Scots if he gets some early impetus. Conick, however, is ready to unload the echoes of past victories. A mighty clash of lightsabers, or a battle of kicking. If Conick drains all his conversions and penalty's like usual it may lead Shore the the Victory.
Johnson Vs Callaghan - Duel of the Cosmic Warriors
With Callaghan now at new cosmic heights, the tides of fate could finally turn in favour of Shore as he stands firm and is wanting to prove himself to get him that coveted spot in the GPS 1s. But Johnson, one of the Scots' true warriors, will stand firm and write his name in the annals. The cosmic battle that no eye in the galaxy can look away from.
Sopena Vs Bassingthwaite - Galactic Confrontation
Now, Sopena tries to break away from mediocrity, seeking dominance for his school. But Bassingthwaite, a maestro of the cosmic field, dances with the stars, his footwork a spectacle. They engage in a battle of wits and skill, with the outcome affecting field position.
It's Brial vs Baxter - Clash of the Titans
Then, in that cosmic battlefield, the meeting of two giants of the field, each one nothing less than a gargantuan rival, so determined—their clash hears the cosmos echo. The destiny of their schools hangs in the balance.
May the Force be with them all as they embark on this epic journey through the stars of THE BRIDGE.
Prediction: The Cosmic Outcome
In this cosmic clash of titans, the outcome remains shrouded in mystery, like a nebula drifting through the vast expanse of space. Will the Shore rise to claim victory and defy the odds, or will Scots rally and reclaim their stellar glory?
The Shore Mums' Legendary Tuckshop
Amid the cosmic chaos of battle, one thing remains certain: the legendary tuckshop operated by the Shore mums. With a culinary prowess to match that of even the finest chefs in the galaxy, they offer players and spectators an oasis of comfort and nourishment. From Wookiee cookies to Ewok treats, their legendary larder remains an example of the power of maternal love and an ever-present community spirit.
As the stars align and destiny unfolds, only time will tell the cosmic victor. Until then, let the games begin as the Force guides them all to glory.
