I don't understand the sudden Scots glaze. They have had big names in the team all year but have'nt clicked together as a team. Shore played the best game they have played all year last week and are undefeated since the break.
Joeys can't keep playing Aug's and Oakhill on the same weekend, the B's teams get smashed every time. Those two schools are too strong to be played on the same week.
Not true the shore c’s played Cranbrook b’s because joeys c’S were at tas so shore and joeys teams could play each other in the same grade
Coming into this year Scots were favourites for many with a nearly all year 12 Backline full of stars and a solid forward pack. In term 2 it is no question that they underperformed and couldn't play as a team however their loses where all of small margins. This term they have made a huge improvement, starting Joey's loosing streak and even their loss to View they showed alot more promise. With the added return of some notable injured players (Jacques, McKenzie) I don't think it is a bad prediction saying that Scots will not give Shore a easy game by any means this weekend.
Ok, noted and will comply.
Shore also won 21 of the 28 games against Kings. And in the 16s scored 149 points against Kings 0, so it’s interesting, but not as interesting as you think.
Augustine's A's definitely too good for the 15Bs. Now sure the same could have been said of Oakhill. They were not very strong.
Joeys vs Kings :
Shore's 13's - 16's age groups are getting better each yeah. Its good to see their depth improving, especially their strong 14A's team who went undefeated last year if I'm not mistaken and they were undefeated this season until their unfortunate loss in a thrilling match against a phenomenally well drilled Joeys side. Some great young talent in both teams and many names to watch out for in the upcoming years.
By thrilling do you mean thrashed?
This was only the case for the 16 and 13s. In the 14s and 15s it was:
Joeys 14As 33 - 5 Shore
Knock, Knock,
Yep, big differences between Joeys, Shore and Kings in that age group.
Personally, I don't believe the score reflected the match. Joeys ran away with it at the end of the match, but for the majority of the match it was a good battle between the two teams, as last year they were 1 and 2 on the ladder, so going into the match there was a good rivalry. Good to see the Joe boys get up and hopefully go undefeated for the season with a win against view this week.
Knock, Knock,
No, Shore is now officially the most dominant rugby school in Australia
Joeys 2’s beat Shore 25 - 10 and spent a big chunk of the match with only 13 on the field. Shore are a one team wonder and if they don’t close out the prem this week it will be another 30 years in the desert. Sorry to burst your bubble.
And the 3rds are also going for the prem this weekend, most ungracious take on Shore’s win (and revamped program) yet and the boys busting a gut week in and out. You should take some lessons from the Joeys boys who played on the weekend, who were gracious in defeat and showed some character.
For the many people that predicted Joeys to win on the weekend, are you going to tip Shore this weekend?
