[Informer]

Only two boys from Hills this year. That is a far cry from the 2010 team when they dominated CHS selections.

Does anyone know if Vinnie Baranyi was injured? Same goes for Nick Burden.

[Malcsy]

Have they been graded yet ?

 

[Lee Grant]

Thanks for posting that ILMF.

I wonder if there are any stars in that lot apart from players like Wessels, who we know well? I see that Broome must still be alive which was not guaranteed the way he plays his footie.

As informer said - it's a surprise that there are so few lads from Hills. I wonder if there have been changes to the league/union dichotomy that have had at the school.

And there's one from Manly Selective !! Crikey - that's like a surfer from Uzbekistan. [Geez, I typed that and spell check allowed it first time. Well, I was impressed.]

Have they been graded yet ?

not sure, i think that is just a mixed team and will be decided on the camp they have

 

[the berries]

Not many Hills Sports players in this mix. I wonder what happened ? Last year they were sensational with talent all over the place.

most likely focusing on league, with ARL cup this year they are looking strong, also lost a few players to toyota cup and first grade, jacob loko, willie skelton.etc

 

[Bradley]

Hills were a one hit wonder in Union last year. They had a special group of players that could adapt to playing both codes where they won the Arrive Alive Cup in league and Waratah Shield in rugby using essentially the same players. Not so this year it seems.

 

[MrBump]

The team has been graded they are just published in school order.
No decisions are made at "camp". There was a 5 hour training session on Sunday at Nepean HS.

Trials start this weekeend with CHS taking on AICES and CCC at St doms(?) at Penrith.

have the CHS teams been split up yet? Any idea on the make up of the AICES and CCC teams?

CHS look the goods, from what i have seen in the trial, large and mobile forward pack with backs to finish, capable of scoring points against any team

CCC look structured, though lacking in size, good scrums in first half, though need to work more at the breakdown as backs had sloppy ball

AICES couldnt hold CHS 2 for more than 5 minutes and the points kept rolling in from then, they lack the size aswell and couldnt compete at the breakdown, scrums or pace of the game

I wouldn't say the forward pack was mobile but it was big. The lineout was good but there were times the smaller CCC pack was able to shift the bigger CHS pack around. Forwards to impress were the 8 (did some good runs without making any breaks and went to ground too easily at times) and the 5 (who did most of his running in the CCC 22. the halfback is a strength of thisteam and drove his forwards well all day and organised beautifully.

The games against CAS and ISA coming up will tell us whether they will compete with GPS

 

[footy-kid]

i say the CHS 6 was the best forward as well as the 8, as he made some linebreaks and was very difficult to tackle it seemed
any standouts for CCC

 

[OppO]

How did reps from last year go? Guys such as Broome, Wessels?

 

[rugbylover]

I have been following this thread with interest and would like to throw up a dark horse. Michael Carr from Farrer. Big, strong and powerful with speed to burn. Plays for Farrer 1st with Batho and has played a lot of central north rugby with and against Vaessen. He missed a lot of last year with injury but used the down time to pile on the weight. He is not very well known in Sydney circles but I am picking that is about to change.

His strengths are his speed (seriously, can and has switched to outside centre) and his play at the breakdown. His defence though is his real trump card. Hits like a mack truck. Apparently the selectors at the CHS selection trials were very impressed. Earlier this year at the Vice Chancellors Cup in Armidale he decimated a couple of Qld GPS 1st hookers, some of whom I see have been touted around on some of these forums. Keep an eye out for him.

 

[Lee Grant]

Thanks for the tip rugbylover - and welcome aboard.

I'll look out for him in the trials at Cranbrook tomorrow and on June 19th at Rat Park.
