I know it's the master,@ItsNotPink 's job, and we all look forward to and absolutely love his weekly previews and reviews, so I'll keep it brief.Are there any early favourites for the 3's comp? Know it's only early but would be interested to hear what everyone thinks.

Edited. I don't know how I missed that one Joker.. Apologies
Shore when they lost to view had a very diffirent team to what they have now. As boys call it now the "thirsties at shore are stacked"I know it's the master,@ItsNotPink 's job, and we all look forward to and absolutely love his weekly previews and reviews, so I'll keep it brief.
I think Scots, View & Shore are looking good. Scots, who beat Kings in trials & Joeys in Round 1, have the capability to defend the title if they keep it up. Close behind looks like Shore and View. Shore comfortably defeated both Kings (trial) and TAS (rd 1), but did lose to View (in a trial game though). View just beat High 68-0, beat Newo 26-7, and as said before, just edged out a victory over Shore 10-8. Grammar, who are often forgotten, are also shaping up well, so they can also be a contender. We'll see.
I don't keep up with the 3s (apart from Scots) as much as hoped, but my predicted finishing ladder is:
1. Scots (BACK TO BACK)
2. Shore
3. View (shore and view can swap)
4. Joeys
5. Grammar (joeys and grammar can swap)
5. TAS
6. Kings
7. Newo
8. High
Should be a great game. Heard from the Newington camp that they have a few stars coming back from injury. Does anyone have team lists for the respective sides?TKS 8th's to Vs the Newington SilverBacks...
Reposting @JokerJoeys +10
Scots +5
Kings +10
I will be going to the Shore game, however will be streaming the Joeys game also.@wisemaan What game are you watching this weekend? As you are a sane observer and so do i see myself as that i will be pleased to watch a game with you and eat a pie! All good if not, I'm used to disappointment in life.
Yours truly Jock( once said before and will say to iIm in palliative care- I am a jockey)..
Going to be an interesting change to see the Joeys prop Quinn kicking for goal and on the wing… Sure you’ve got the right team list there Wiseman?Kicking Game: Grover vs. Quinn.
Flash vs. Flashier: Jeremy Newton vs. Quinn
Winger vs. Winger.
Go ahead and give it a laugh, clearly was a joke and went over your head mate. Changed it now, because people don't get this kind of humour and have a chuckle now a days..Going to be an interesting change to see the Joeys prop Quinn kicking for goal and on the wing… Sure you’ve got the right team list there Wiseman?
Come on wiseman, u have made a mistake own it be a man which you are. "Respect is given, now take it or leave it fool"Go ahead and give it a laugh, clearly was a joke and went over your head mate. Changed it now, because people don't get this kind of humour and have a chuckle now a days..
Ok, then I suppose Schools and GPS have to take into consideration his form playing 1st XV for Newington then.Schools and GPS rarely take into consideration club or state champ form - sadly. Some great cross school integration of talent on display and can compare CIS to GPS and CAS
No digs from this side, just a bit of banter and nothing to be taken personally mate, love the match previews just found the slip up to be funny, no need to get defensive.Go ahead and give it a laugh, clearly was a joke and went over your head mate.

"Shore Scots. Battle of the two heavyweights in the pre-season."@Joker
Joeys +5
Scots +3
Kings +7
I presume you will be out at The Garden of Eden this weekend?
Interesting round this
Joeys View may swing either way but I back the strength and tenacity of the Joeys forwards to provide momentum in service to their backs. Don't underestimate View although, with wins against Shore and New and the class of the shifty 9 and 13 they could ask some difficult questions of the Joeys defence
Shore Scots. Battle of the two heavyweights in the pre-season. Some would say their starts have been underwhelming, it's a must-win for both but I believe Scots edge them out with a larger forward pack and elusive backs. Side note is Jacques out for the season???
Kings New, both have gained momentum in the past two weeks with wins where they had their backs against the wall. Again, Kings seem to me the stronger rugby team but don't count out Newington and their 10's capability to create something out of nothing, as he has done so in the past weeks.
Happy tipping to all, honestly some of these tips this year may have been better decided by the flip of a coin.
They keep the same team in the trials did they? My mistake. But yes they are also 3-1 so less need. Think if your 1-3 might be worth considering changes….Joeys have pretty much kept the same team week in week out...no real movement
