NSW AAGPS 2025 (banter and commentary)

Shores Galligan, who i believe was playing a very impressive brand of footy, is set to be sidelined for a while. Joeys Taumoepeau had the joeys boys sweating, as he went down against Newington, fortunately he was able to finish the match. Also heard Talen Risati from Kings is out. This is all I am aware of, but from what I have heard that there are many more.
It seems the more strength training the players do, they more fearsome the injuries.
 

123 squeeze!!!

Why Scots?? They came from behind to beat Shore with a penalty goal in the last seconds of the game. Shore was still missing key players and played winning but not perfect game in my eyes. Considering the game styles I have seen witnessed from New and SJC I cannot see Scots getting up over either team, let alone twice.

In terms of my predictions, I think it is too tight of a season to make any predictions yet, with round 1 and 2 having little value in determining consistency.

Twister.
After a look at the teams depth and further into players and history, I completely agree with this opinion on Scots. Although I do still back newington to have a chance.
thanks for the insight twister

Any Newington team lists and is the new lock back from suspension.
No suspensions for any New players.

The school doesn't release team lists like they did last year so can't confirm who will be selected unfortunately

Only injury concern is the captain and No.8 Dylan Simmons. Popped his rib cartilage in 2nd half vs joeys. I expect he will play

Have heard that starting props Scheck and Viliamu may be due back this week too.

fair enough twister I can see your points here. I also agree it is a bit early for predictions.
 

Here for the advice

Definitely Shore with the Galtitude out for what could be 8 weeks.
Tough for the lad on the back of what I understand was rowing injuries that impacted the HOTR preparations- and now an ankle not great for him. BUT has to focus on getting healthy vs rushing l back as it’s important to walk and run post school!! Yes we all love GPS rugby but sports careers can continue. Shore lost its captain if I am right a few years back and I hear he is playing colts / club rugby now so there are similar hard luck stories.

Very True, Lachie Thorpe (E) SHORE rugby captain '22 was injured in round 1. Didn't play again that season, but back playing now.

Galligan definitely does not want to rush back after this injury and reaggravate it.

The return of the prince. After a lengthy ban, I would like to my announcement back to the forum.

Anyone have a Grammar form guide going into this season, and a potential team list this weekend.

I'm kicking my feet in the air!!!!!!!
Well, what I do know is their going up against a strong Shore 3s team who are in form at the moment. The game is at Weigall, though, so they have the home ground advantage, keen to see what plays out over there in Rushcutters Bay....
