I will defend Terrace as a proud rugby school.I saw someone referenced their rugby program as a “joke “. Maybe not a strong year but certainly overall they probably win more games than they lose against most schools. Rugby culture is not built alone on winning the First XV or an A team or two. It’s participating and having a good number of teams and then feeling it in the stands cheering for your school.
Who won most games last Saturday against BBC?.
Hard to $ buy culture!
I truly agree with your statement "The Bull". Nowadays all it takes is one bad game for a whole program to get slammed. Back in my days it was BBC and State High, which may of led to pressure getting in scholarships. I hope my boy doesn't get slammed if Downlands loose the O'Callaghan cup and can continue to have fun against other GPS schools.

I agree MM,

I believe this could be happening at BGS, although they are looking better each week they play. I think they could convert some of their academic scholarships into some strength for their rugby program.

I may not be @The Blin6side, however i reckon Downlands take this one out.
MOTM: The number 8, unsure of his name but he is captain and an outstanding footy player.
SCORE: 22 - 19 in favour of DC
Agree Here - DLC looking better than other years and have looked polished against many strong GPS outfits, as well as TGS looking not as strong as usual. If there was a year for DLC to take it I would say this is there best chance in a while
DLC 13-12 TGS
MOTM - Jalen Palaszczuk (Winger), HM - Baraviala (TGS)

Everyone's predictions for the O'Callaghan Cup this week?

I know @The Blin6side will have some good opinions.
Its a hard one as Downlands have nothing to loose really and TGS are expected to win most years lately. Hard when the biggest game for TGS is not counted for the comp they are playing in and don't have a bye week to rest weary players. TGS by 3.
Great day of Footy!

Haha! Arent you funny. Reading this as a BGS old boy is really boiling my blood and is making me furious... To keep it simple the answer is NONE. BGS have the strength in their squad they just need to know how to unleash it.

Northgate has to be the deadest place in history. Grandstand is about 1km from the field
Agreed, The School Ruined the spirit when they stopped having games at the school. I can remember back in my youth going to watch the grammar boys up on spring hill. That place was electric it was an absolute cauldron, was loud and echoed, you were close to the action it was a real atmosphere! Surely the School gets their act together and gets a few or even one firsts game on at the school next year and maybe they might have a chance at winning a few games.

-Cheers, DB
