Does anyone have insights on the CAS teams? Best players and positions to look for when the two teams play against each other on Friday night? They always seem to have a few eye-catching leagueyes.

@rod skellet would know. He pops in here often. He is even the tipping here.

I will correct later today. Spending the day resting after a big funeral yesterday of a dear friend who’s son I taught. Lovely as well was to see some of his classmates from 23 years ago there. The best thing I got from Scots was the friendship I have with these great blokes. Mind you 200k comes close.

Sounds like it has been a big year for you Joker, cheers for keeping the forum lively with your witty banter on top of everything that has been going on in your life. All the members and community are behind you mate. It seems we have journeyed through what I'm dubbing the 'G&G R Civil War' and moving forward into a calmer period.

Are the GPS opens teams playing today?

And if so were?

As far as I believe they will be playing tomorrow, both the 1s and 2s against CAS. Wishing them the best of luck.

Where is the newington 10?????? Thought he was the form 10 in the comp. Must have affiliations to rugby league

 

[Brad Pitt-stop]

Why are the numbers on the front of the jersey?

I don't think that's how GPS rugby works bucko

Last year S.Martin (N) was in one of the GPS teams even though he played 2XV for most of the year. Any players like that this year?

-Footyhead

 

[CutOutBallFanatic]

Folkes is playing 2s GPS now as Makasini is injured, and Jay Mckenzie is playing 1's.

 

[scrumhead99]

I believe he has chosen to play for CIS league, instead of compete in the GPS games.

 

[The_Lock]

Really impressive for Folkes considering he didn't make either of the u16s teams last year. Well done.

Schedule for GPS

Such a shame- Rugby Au would have been smart to have kept a watchful eye on him.

 

[Caesar]

Folkes is an exceptional talent with his ball playing skills and speed, and whilst i wish to play the ball and not the player i truely believe that if he is able to put on some size he could truely become one of the best, let alone the best winger in the GPS next year.

Interesting colour jersey on Lavercombe

 

[Will Ryen]

Something I found quite interesting was Clatworthy's selection in the 1XV. He only plays half a game for Newington each week, barely noticable and yet he has been picked. I am not trying to have a dig at him personally but rather at GPS selection as a whole considering the Nwwington coaches are in charge. I fear that the politics within GPS rugby is quite strong and needs to be fixed. I would have personally put Osborne(I) in there.

Yours in Speculation
The Lock

Now listen the term 'Politics' should not be used on the forum but I do agree with some of the selection errors. Though now it is up to the players to prove the selectors are right. I suggest that the players missing out on selection in the top teams will now be motivated to replace those above them.
