Judging by the result against Shore, TSS have a long way to go to have a chance a raising the cup. Nudgee, TGS and BBC all look to be on another level then the boys from Southport. It's going to be a tight contest for 2nd across the GPS though with Nudgee proving pure rugby dominant with their comprehensive victories against MCA, Christchurch and Barker showing their superiority in the GPS. The blue and white seem to claim number 45 this year, even though TSS, TGS, BBC and GT will put up a fight I don't see an outcome with any school taking the premiership away from them. It would have to take a freak loss like last year to BSHS to give any of the 2nd tier school to have any sort of chance this year.

oi cheesy hop off it mate
Hey Cheesy, really really like that teamlist. Somebody sure has a lot of ball knowledge thats for sure. Don't worry about these haters, somebody always has a wrong opinion - you truly are a wise man with some wise teamlists. Here are my only changes:
1. Kingsley Uys (TSS) -- > Levi Slater (NC) *Allround Goodbloke
7. Joey Grey (TGS) --> Adam Latham (NC) *Son of Chris Latham
10. Dallas Ingram (TSS) --> Charlie O'Connell (NC) *Armidale U12 MVP
12. Frank Howarth (BBC) --> Carter Welfare (NC) *Signed to the Dolphins
14. Amaziah Murgha (IGS) --> Ethan Grimshaw (NC) *The fastest bloke on earth
Tell me what you reckon mate.

Thanks for the support mate people just don't want to accept when the best team from last year has 7 returning players and Nudgee is a world class rugby nursery they will hold over half the all star team. Although I wouldn't go to the stretch of making all 15 Nudgee players as the comp is bigger then the boys from Boondall but I'm sure they would still beat any team the AIC program could put together. Although a few commenters don't seem to like my team prediction I am waiting to hear any changes they would make.
Anybody got some picks for MVP..
I am thinking:
MVP: John Grenfall (absolute workhorse, this bloke gets around on and off the field. I think beyond his fierce mentality on the field - that can only be compared to the one, and only, mamba #ripkobe #forkobe - his performance on a sunday at the stockies, is just amazing. I have never. And I mean never, seen a man sink as many reddys like as bloke.)

With first round of GPS trials starting this week and some average results from BBC and TSS over the weekend it will be interesting to see what sort of teams each school will put out as selections are narrowing down. Would be keen to see any predictions for the weekend ahead.

TSS only have 4 players backing up from last year so may struggle. That said, they lost all their preseason trials last year and came within a game of the premiership

Knocking over sunshine coast and drawing with Downlands, are BGS more of a show this year?

Would be good to see them being competitive but I don't see them winning more then 1 game if that. It will be interesting to see how they go in the upcoming trials to see if they can hold their ground instead of being the joke of the GPS.
