Hopefully the injection of Wendt will put a stop to this theme of not being able to close out games.

Agreed, as well as callaghan returning the week after and bassingthwaighte a few more after that. Once Shores at full strength there backs will rise to the level the shore forwards are playing at and they (if no more injuries occur) will be lethal...

Agreed, I think Shore's lineout maul this week will be critical against Scots, if they can complete.

They are always strong in and around lineouts. Hopefully this week will be no different.

Not to sure, Although this usally is the case when individual choose league over union at school. If hes good enough though, which it seems he is, he will make his way to the 1's in no time...
Thoughts on the rain?
Newington large land mammals may tire in the wet. The sprightly lambs shall prance though across the SJC bowling green with ease.
Only issue will be handling. The Barker game taught them plenty. Even wet a Joeys field is impeccable.
Scots College outdoor aquatic center is filling nicely at this time I am told. Student spies who still communicate with me have noted the puddles on main growing at a radid rate. Once more there will be concerns of players drowning on the worst surface in the AAGPS. Even McKay Oval drained (but local kids stole your hubcaps) . Shore lads must remember to pack their floaties for this game.
Here is 2024.

Anticipating to see where Wendt will play after both Callaghan and Bassingthwaighte return. Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply,
I get what you are saying. But seriously Doble is one of a kind, the front row for the 3rdXV is incredibly good. Just cause him and Tom Hill are natural Leaugies dosent mean they aren't good at Union. GET A GRIP SCOTS COLLEGE!!!!
Cheers boys,

You could get either Callaghan or Bassingthwaighte in the 10 position and one at 15. Wendt could play really anywhere in the backline but most likley at 12

SIRC and the Swamp - no two better places to be on a saturday than TSC and SIC
For clarity, Riverview are playing at TKS on the weekend

Shore boys have been spending plenty of time in the mud as Northbridge filled up throughout the week.
Interesting though, this round (or maybe the next) last season, it was a wet weather splash about... As long as they can keep the ball off the ground and the forwards out of the back line, the standard should stand.

Great start, but don't forget these boys (I understand some of them are injured and due back soon):

10. Bede Fogarty (J)
13. Jarryd King (N)
14. Tom O'Hara (S)

Seriously Agree 'Marto' Scots are losing games because they dont have these boys in the front row, somethings gotta change or Scot's season will go down hill before it even starts!

Well when Callaghan comes back soon, Wendt could move to either inside centre and replace Tully Robertson, or move to the wing and replace Oscar Dalmeida. Will be a tough call and you’d assume that both those boys are fighting for their spot over the next few weeks. Personally, I reckon Robertson is playing excellently and has been a real unsung hero, Tully has always been a quality defender but it was also his attacking threat that was evident vs Joeys where he was involved with multiple line-breaks. Conversely, Oscar offers a much bigger frame and is excellent under the higher ball. Will be interesting to see how the coaches play it.
Bassingthwaighte’s return in a few weeks will likely be at the expense of Dan Ritchie in the 10 jersey. However, moving Rex to 12 is an interesting option that I think may be discussed.

Good chance that Wendt slots into the centres, Bassingthwaighte at 10 and Callaghan at 15

I'm almost surprised we haven't seen Francis slot into the 15 jersey as he was Callaghan's replacement last season when he missed a game or two at the start however, I'm excited to see Wendt at 15 as he 100% deserves the spot.
