Couple of names there, but not enough to make be too competitive I don’t think. A lot more league in the high schools.

What happened to Shore no. 8? Seen rumours of injury

Don’t think that is correct. Not sure where you have ‘seen’ these rumours.

Ps I don’t think Clout can actually get injured, he just gets back up.

[The Observer]

We have seen consistently seen the opinions on the GPS 1st XV, be interested to see the opinions on the 2nd & 3rd XV‘S for the schools tournament, this will show the true the true followers of the competition, not just the punters who know the big names and the reputational selections!

TIPPING UPDATE.
ALL is welcome for this round

The tipping team have put their collective heads together and decided they will only be taking tips made on the AAGPS 1st XV
Normally in the past we covered four teams but with at least nine games this was going to be a mess.
So we have decided ONE team with THREE GAMES only.

Ace has made up a nice additional table for this round with everyone welcome.
Tips are of course important for the competition players but those who want to have a lash, here is your opportunity.

NOTE: TWO games play on Thursday at Stirling Bridge (TIMES below)
Friday game is at Forshaw Park and is at night. (rug up)

[The Chairman]

@Jim Belshaw do you know of any TAS boys that could challenge for high representation. I remember big Fred Kearney making the Seconds, anyone this year given they look pretty good.

 

[twister29]

Just out, Lemoto (S) and Makasini (N) are both on the final team lists for the u19 State of Origin. However, Lemoto sits in the bench at no16, Makasini is listed as 18th man.

Hopefully they get a run, will be thrilling to watch.

 

[The Chairman]

You’ve got the wrong Lemoto. That's Hakofanu Lemoto who is playing. Makasini is the 18th man yes.

Congratulations to old boy Rodwell (N) who gets the nod for NSW in the 6 slot.

I'd have to agree. I think CCC and SJRU has a better line up.

 

[The Cleaner]

CCC Players to watch - Lisitoa Paea, Darcy Emmett, Jerome Pongi, Charlie Taner, Creighton Meafou

 

[The Cleaner]

Saw this and thought its worth sharing. Someone might give up rugby because they've found a new calling and become the next Jacob Elordi. Little fun fact - Jacob Elordi played rugby here in Australia well before he joined Tinseltown.

I would add in Cooper Morrison! A very good player who has been involved in the Waratahs gen blue program

 

[twister29]

You’ve got the wrong Lemoto. That's Hakofanu Lemoto who is playing. Makasini is the 18th man yes.

See that’s bloody confusing, and in hindsight quite silly from me - considering I am aware of Lemoto’s future plans

@Joker this is the moment you have been waiting for…

 

[twister29]

Finn Hannon from SJC. My hot take is he could even play GPS 1XV if he wasn’t a year 10.

 

[The Chairman]

Hopefully all the league lads opt in to the representative sides. It would be incredible to see the combined squad at full strength.

 

[Here for the advice]

Agreed but if they cannot best of luck - if someone has a pathway to paid sport well done to them. The ARU has not kept pace with professionalism. Let’s hope they work if out soon. Also if the year 10 kid is up to it make it happen!

Did you watch the Scots Newington game? Sinclair didn't play?
