Nope - theyre in ArmidaleAre the Grammar boys playing at Weigal? If so what time are the rated 16a's playing, might catch the game on the way to Bellevue Hill.
48-5 to Kings. You could say that about most teams this year. Kings were the better team, but did play most of the 1st half v 14 and most of the second half v 13. Probably should've won by moreBased on the last 25 minutes of the game, whoever beats Kings this season will win the premiership.
With the greatest respect, it is certainly not a frequent event that an 18yo boy has the lights turned out so soon after graduating from school, and under violent circumstances. In light of this, I would echo the sentiments of Mr Jarse above and say that it certainly wouldn't be out of place considering that many current students quite possibly knew the young lad themselves. It's about relevance, and a recent cohort passing away in tragic circumstances, and in such a public manner, is certainly relevant for mine.
Back to Rugby, I enjoy reading the opinions of the people on here as everyone seems to know what they are talking about. Shore line-up looks good for this weekend. I've been told in passing (probably unreliably, the bloke I speak to is generally full of B.S but sometimes he gets it right) that their LHP's injury is not as bad as previously reported on here (double dislocation) and that the lad could be back by the first round. Sorry, I don't know his name???????
Other than the Kings Oz Schools boys being rested this weekend does anyone know if other schools are following suit? You'd think it would be wise to rest players after a heavy roster of Rugby over the break.
Hopefully we will see a competitive GPS season with all the lads fighting fit.

I agree some allowance has to be made for the fact of sendoffs/binnings, remembering that Kings played with 14 for 10. The Scots scrum was dominant even with the reduced numbers - I thought the piggies were their weakness from what I had read on here.
The impressive thing to me was that the Scots backs have a lot of rep talent and yet man on man the kings blokes beat them every time. Thought the Kings 12 looked good.
Does anybody know the Newington v Riverview result it was so very cold at Stanmore that me and several friends we home early much to our regret. It was that or catach a chil.
Kings 20 def Scots 0Do we have 2nd XV results
Kings were at full strength, although Jones had a heavily strapped knee. There was a minutes silence followed by a lone piper's lament. Very moving and a few onions peeled in the crowd.
The Scots scrum was dominant even with the reduced numbers
The scrums competed as even numbers despite both Crossley and Kamp being sent off. When Crossley was sent off in the first half Kings no 8 Moylan dropped off the scrum at the contest. When Kamp was sent off Kings no 6 Camp dropped off the scrum. Kings also won two tight heads in the second half in even numbered contests. Towards the end of the game Scots dropped off a flanker and Kings did likewise leaving several 5 man scrum contests.
