Definitely agree. He played exceptionally well all weekend. I thought that CCC's Will Davies had a good carnival too but Jones is way out in front.

Oscar Popple played some time at fullback when Jones went off, Popple can play wing to so he could be inline for a bench spot.

I saw that as well. You'll note from the side I chose that I thought he was good enough for a starting spot.

i would be very surprised too see Orr miss out on a starting position in your line up CTPE (but a great line-up anyway), i thought that he asserted his dominance on the field in all 3 games. much more reliable and aggressive on ball player and runner then Matson as well, cant say i saw much of the Joeys fulla though, hearing good reports though . Also surprised that there was no mention of the CAS 2's prop? i think his names olah? great leg drive in too contact and great tackling skills.
I also think that it is way to early too judge, although these trials are a great indication, they only have half of the effect on the selectors.
ON TOO THE REGIONAL CARNIVAL I SAY!! LOL

Sure did; Played well too!
MOTH,
For the record mate he did play (however you may already know this no I believe). With that said I actually spoke at length with his father today after a mutual friend introduced us. A very interesting story indeed, especially when given your comment of "another boy sent packing to league."
It is a story for another day perhaps, but let me just say it's a story concerning a battle between League and Union for the hearts and minds of elite juniors that can play both codes!

Newbie.

Are any of these posts by the kids who actually played the game?
It seems to be just parents who THINK they know so much about rugby and other people kids!!!

The CAS II's prop you are thinking of is Moala. He did some really good things which stood out but I think the others named have higher work rates and these days props need to be able to play at an effective level for long periods. I noticed in the main final that the GPS starting props Sandell and Streeter were close to the last players replaced in the side and didn't come off until well into the second half. Sandell in particular is not only a very good scrummager but is very mobile and plays at a constantly high tempo.

anyone got any feedback on CAS 2nd rower Cameron Mee?

Fair enough CTPE, i believe that YES, the props do have to be mobile, and as far as i've seen Orr and Sandell, (only seeing a small part of GPS final), have done that.

I asked same question too. Apparently Troy is out for the year with a bad foot injury. That kid goes hard. Shame really.

My friend,
Perhaps it would be better for you to leave your attitude at the door when you enter this site. Your comments are very unneccessary and perhaps it would be better for you to project that high powered perception of yours inward. It might make you a better person!
With that said what are your credentials when it comes to rugby (and reporting on the same) to sit in judgment and criticise others within this site??? Hmmmm??? Without wanting to sound conceited mine are as follows:
Player: Reserve and 3rd Grade for Western Suburbs (now West Harbour); 1st Grade (Drummoyne -1st Division Subbies)
Other Qualifications: BAppSc(SpMgt), LLB, GDLP, L1 ARU Coach. And last of all, and my proudest acheivement, my QBE! (I wont tell you what I work as because as stated before in this room I want to maintain my anonimity).
I hope this now gives me your blessing to discuss whatever the @#%$& I like as it pertains to schoolboy rugby! Oh, in case your wondering the QBE stands for QUALIFIED BY EXPERIENCE! Perhaps you should get some too; as Confucious used to say, "FIRST ENGAGE MIND BEFORE YOU ENGAGE TONGUE"!!!!

Newbie.

Newbie - I'm with you - if I laid out my credentials, my identity would be instantly identifiable to the point where I may as well just post my real name. For the record I did not play in any of the games being discussed, nor did I have a son playing in any of them, indeed I wasn't even able to get to any of them.
Yes I do know a few of the boys involved and have had a passive interest in their exploits as I do the exploits of many of my friends!.
