My opinion on View is not based on pre-season trial performance, but primarily on the calibre of the most likely 1st XV players. Young, fit, strong and with some canny rugby heads who are set to peak in 2014. Any team taking them lightly this year will not do so in the second round.

One way or the other. pre season games against other sides who may be playing their first game might not be a good pointer. Yes, they look well oiled, but can they come from behind?

Kings were the form team from the trials last year but didn't reproduce this in the GPS competition games.

Play GPS 3's against CHS,CAS or ISA 1's and see how many get picked.
3rd choice from a field of 6 does not deserve to be selected for NSW,after a romp where they win by 50 odd points.
The selectors do not give nearly enough weight to the fact that
the 1's are a significantly tougher than the 2's games, whilst the 3's would be beaten by many School teams.

Gee I thought there were 9 GPS schools in the comp you believe the other three schools have zero talent. A narrow misguided view at best. The fact that other schools don't have enough cattle to play in the top grade does not mean there is no ability in any of the 3 other schools. There are others who deserve GPS selection!!!

Anyone hazard an early guess at the 2013 GPS 1's and II's team?
Click to expand...

I expect that the GPS 1's and 2's will come from these players with bold in 1's :

1. Lucas Bateman (Kings)/ Doug Streeter (Shore)/Nathan Kelly (Riverview)
2. Sam Cater (Shore)/ Jono Burke (Kings)/Hosea Fotukava (Riverview)
3. Matthew Sandell (Joeys)(c)//Jack Bowditch (Riverview)/Lucas Bateman (Kings)
4. Lachlan Cannell (Newington)/ Paddy Oliver (Shore)
5. Ned Hanigan (Joeys)/Toby Rudolph (Scots)
6. David Morris (Newington)/George Prassas (Newington)/Oly Kamp (Scots)
7. Jack McCalman (Kings)(c)/ Hamish Dunbar/Murray (Scots)
8. Angus Chrichton (Scots)/Lachlan Cannell (Newington)/David Ballntine (Kings)
9. Pat Curtain (Joeys)/Rory Davis Kings/Joey Lussick (Newinton)/ Harry Emery (Shore)
10. Corey Tulloch (Kings)/Jack Clancy (Shore)/Andrew Deegan (Joeys)
11. Taane Milne (Newington)
12. Tepai Morea (Newington)
13. Will Davies (Kings)
14. Nick Clancy (Shore)/James Kane (Kings)/Henry Hutchinson (Riverview)
15. Andrew Kellaway (Scots)

Looking at the available players there is probably more stand outs in the backs and more competition for spots in the forwards.

Got to get away from these dark arts and make the positions earned on stats. Even if you just took the forward pack of the team with most points for and the backline of the team with least points against. Either that or beep tests.

Totally agree but as noted in some recent posts they pick the teams after round 2 of the GPS comp leaving little time for the stats to emerge.

Why should kings have 5 players if they are near the bottom of the table? Is this a Gonski thing?

2. Sam Carter is not at Kings - I think Connor95 means Sam Cater from Shore. Angus Crichton is also from Scots not Shore.
That leaves the following from his list:
Kings - 4
Joeys - 7
Newington - 4
Scots - 3
Shore - 2
Riverview - 0

With 7 Joeys players and nil Riverview players Connor95 is no doubt a devout cerise and blue supporter! Newington also deserve a couple more in the list.

4. Ned Hanigan (Joeys)

6. Olly Kamp (Scots)
7. Jack McCallum (Kings)
8. Angus Critchon (Scots)
9. Harry Emery (Shore)
10. Joey Lussick (Newington)
11. Taane Milne (Newington)
12. Tepai Morea (Newington)
13. Angus McGrath (Joeys)
14. Sam Mete (Riverview)
15. Andrew Kellaway (Scots)

Shore - 2
Kings - 2
Joeys - 3
Newington - 4
Scots - 3
View - 1

There are about 10 different options in the halves but I think it'll be Emery and Lussick. McGrath probably won't get picked in 1s as he isn't in NGS or JGS and played 2s last year, but he could end up in a NSW jersey if he gets picked in a GPS side.

The 2012 NSW schools players who seem to be returning are Sandell, Kellaway, Milne & Morea from NSW 1 and Tulloch, McCalman & Lussick from NSW 2. I think that Nathan Kelly may also have played for Combined Schools in 2012 so you would think that all of these would be reasonably certain starters subject to form and injuries.

From some of the above posts it seems that Kings Rory Davis has fallen out of favour - at least among the contributors so far! Any particular reason? Maybe you have some inside goss CTPE? Also - not a lot of support for David Morris from New? Some excellent backrowers named though.

Watty Friend (18)
GPS 1st XV (no bias)

1. Doug Streeter (Shore) - Strong last year, proved himself undoubtedly against his bigger opponents and is very mobile.

2. Jono Burke (Kings) - Solid Unit, hits hard and should represent kings well both in this team and the Kings team.

3. Matt Sandell (Joeys) (C) - Worked well with piggy (Tom Robertson) last year and shows dominance in the scrum and his ball running.

4. Anthony Vasilis (Newington) - had continuous injuries last year e.g. Broken thumb and only got a good chance to show what he is worth in the Scots trial game and later in the season for the 2nds. He tackles well and supports any player thats round him.
Ned Hanigan (Joeys)- Shown his 'might' in the 1st VIII and a leader in the Joeys school. He will be fit and ready to play GPS firsts.

5. Lachie Cannell (Newington)- In the premiership team from New in 2012, didn't get any representative shots last year but due to his size and age (is on pathways), he will show his might and be even better than last year.

6. Olly Kamp (Scots)- Really powerful on the field with ball in hand and in defence, aggressive player all round and would intimidate opponents even before the game has started.

7. Jack McCalman (Kings) (C) - Has strong family genes, represented the AUS 7s team and is a born leader both at school and on the footy field.

8. Angus Critchon (Scots)- Will have gained more size since now playing 1sts for the 2nd year and being in year 10 last year. was in NGS squad and tackles like a wall.
David Morris (Newington)-Underdog of the Backrows, Red-headed Kiwi that can do the job espically in rucks and mauls. He was in last years New 1sts who took out the premiership.
Rob Black (Kings)- Seen him play excellent in the 2nd XV for Kings and should be ready to go further and better through the 1sts and GPS 1sts.

9. Joey Lussick (Newington) - Has played games in the 1sts since year 9 for Newington with a premiership under his belt last year. he will do very well in this position and his size at this position separates him from the other halfbacks.

10. Andrew Deegan (Joeys) (VC) - Strong lad, able to put on hits and take hits. Very capable leader on the field and will represent his school and the GPS very well.

11. Taane Milne (Newington) - Was in the 1st XV premiership team for 2012, represented NSW 1s, Australia A Schoolboys and has that infamous palm to his name. Also has gained even more size and speed since last year. He is also playing the Roosters U20s.

12. Tepai Morea (Newington) - Was in the 1st XV premiership team for 2012, represented NSW 1s, Australian Schoolboys and the Australian youth 7s. All of this being done in year 11. He is a danger man in any team whether it's be in league or union, he will go far.

13. Needs to be filled in.

14. Josh Mitchell (Newington)- Shown his worth in the 2nd XV team for Newington with numerous big hits and tries to his name. He is very aggressive on the field and his intimidation factor is worthwhile in any team.
Henry Hutchison (Riverview) - In year 11 but his very quick and a strong runner with the ball. Played for GPS 16s last year.

15. Andrew Kellaway (Scots)- Undoubtedly one of the finest 'year 7' starters the GPS schools have seen in a while. He has numerous GPS, state and national representations to his name. He will do the same as other year and be quick, strong and read plays very well.

Although a solid supporter of Newington, this would look to have as much bias in my team as any other team posted. But the reason i have chosen these boys is because of the following reasons as listed above.

To prove what I have said, take a look at the boys playing in video:
