I have faith in my boys to bounce back this weekend against IGS to send a message to the rest of the competition that loosing to BSHS was a one off. Loosing the likes of Stanley Keats and Kiama Jione this weekend will impact the BBC side, however if BBC leaves a mark on Roman early, then i have faith in BBC going over.

Those are massive outs for BBC if that is true. If Kiama Jione is out especially I would change my pre-game prediction and would give BSHS the edge to win now. Jione’s physicality is a big part of his team’s fortunes and not having him to bend the line in attack and defence is major loss.

Agreed. Just don't believe that BSHS will show up for the occasion at Miskin (Gaza).

I think the pressure is on the guys named in this preliminary squad to keep performing, otherwise they will miss out all together.

There are alot of good school and Colts players who will be pushing for a spot in the final squad to tour NZ so expect some changes to the make up of the final squad as there will be players putting the pressure on which eventually cant be ignored by the selectors.

Some QLD based players that come to mind pushing for a spot include utility back C Oates (UQ Colts 1 / 1st Grade), school 1st XV hookers; J Grenfell (NC), B Moana (TSS) & H Solofa (ACGS) & the hooker from BBC will be doing their utmost to put pressure on E Kruger & the named hookers in the squad. Big bodies like T Graham (NC) in the backrow, Jione from BBC, J Crothers from ACGS, Kasper from NC just to name a few.

Not that worried about it in all honesty especially with former GPS players being picked, namely Frankie Goldsbrough and Tom Robinson, more interested to see how these 3 boys balance their senior schooling and playing for their country? I mean you cant play footy for 50 years. have to think life after footy.

Prepare yourselves for an intense and exhilarating round of QLD GPS rugby this weekend! The matchups are set, and the stage is ready for a fierce display of skill, determination, and raw athleticism. Here's the draw for this weekend's clashes:

  1. BBC vs. BSHS at Miskin Oval
  2. Nudgee vs. TSS at Ross Oval
  3. Terrace vs. Churchie at Terrace
  4. TGS vs. Ippy at Old Boys Oval
All eyes will be on Miskin Oval, where BBC and BSHS will face off in what promises to be an epic battle reminiscent of the historic Gallipoli campaign. Both teams are known for their relentless spirit and tenacity, making this showdown one for the ages. Just as the soldiers at Gallipoli fought with unwavering courage, BBC and BSHS will leave everything on the field, pushing their limits to emerge victorious. Expect bone-crunching tackles, lightning-fast runs, and a relentless fight for supremacy.

At Ross Oval, Nudgee and TSS will clash in another thrilling encounter. Nudgee, with their rich rugby heritage, will be looking to assert their dominance, while TSS aims to topple the giants and claim glory.

Terrace hosts Churchie in what is sure to be a hard-fought battle. Terrace will be keen to capitalize on their home advantage, but Churchie won't go down without a fight.

Finally, TGS takes on Ippy at Old Boys Oval. Both teams will be eager to secure a win and prove their mettle in this highly competitive round.

Get ready for a weekend of high-octane rugby action. Come out and support your teams as they fight for pride, honor, and victory. Let the battles begin!

throughout my many years of coaching and playing rugby at super high level i know what im talking about unlike all these spinklers. good luck seamonkeys

Goldsborough is there because he is signed to the reds. That’s the only reason.
