QLD GPS 2024

[50/23]

Really feel as though you could argue for the fact that Stan Keats is the best 9 in the competition when fully healthy but I can see why you have ranked him lower as he is returning from injury so we will need to see how he returns before we can give him that spot back

correct, he is the u18 reds 9 for a reason

IGS are 1-1 BBC are 0-1 how do these records help BBC

Because of the teams IGS and BBC have played previously
Aswell as IGS current Groundskeep line up for their ovals this weekend.

 

[GPS Canteen Manager]

With IGS current record I think BBC does have a higher chance of winning their Round 3

Will be tough escpecially after a strong IGS performance defeating TGS pretty convincing

I feel like he has worded this wrong as I feel as though he meant something more along the lines of that the college is fresh off of a loss so they will be hungry for a win whereas IGS might become a little bit complacent as they are fresh off of a convincing win against TGS. So if BBC can start hot i feel like they may be able to catch IGS off guard early and hold momentum to win the game.

On another Note lads do we reckon BBC will be able to bounce back this week with a couple of injuries?

The BBC Rugby program is second to none. The coaching staff will definitely have a plan to bounce back this week.

Both sides have star studded back lines so the difference in the game in my opinion is how well each team controls the rucks and how IGS can unlock Tyson walker and James Grey. Whereas BBC will need to get it to Gun inside centre frank howarth and how they involve him in the game. Possesion is key in this games

Whereas BBC will need to get it do Gun inside centre frank howarth and how they involve him in the game. Possesion is key in which team that succeeds

That is exactly right mate, and from what i've heard, BBC's Fullback Nate Barnett won't shy away from a challenge. Dark Horse of the game.

Quite frankly, I don't understand all this BBC slander within the forum, although they have had a rough start to the season, the only lost by 1 try to a well oiled and premiership contending state high team, without a doubt in my mind they will be able to bounce back not only due to their good team, but the depth they have in the program cannot go unnoticed

Quick question who do we think will win the center battle in IGS vs BBC, IGS warriors of Finn Kendall and James Grey or BBC's star's of Frank Howarth and Andreas Ayache

Although Finn and James have quite the names for themselves, Andreas has the determination of Tiger hunting prey. He was in the 16B's last year, and to make it to this stage it sure must take some serious skill. I think he is fit for the matchup. And having Frank Howarth on his inside is almost like having Payne Haas in the backline. Outstanding. Pure Muscle, speed, and grit.

The X-factor is simply just there for the swish, BBC unfortunately don't got that.

BBC centers have the physicallity over IGS whereas it will be hard to contain there speed and if James grey gets any room to move he will use his rapid pace to his advantage. IGS centers will find it very hard to take down 6'3 Frank howarth

I feel as though BBC will be able to win the centre battle as the experience of Frank Howarth in the GPS comp and the experience of Andreas Ayache in the melbourne competition. I feel as though it is this experience that will give the college the upper hand.

If you get a chance, you must watch the 14A's for Nudgee. Played only one half against TSS last week and ran through them with 8 tries. They have the brother of Rob 'Razor' Toia in the form of Mana Toia. They have the brother of Ex-First15 player, Will Heaton. They have the biggest fullback for u14 I have ever seen, who would be edging on 7ft in the form of Tane Crampton. Despite my exaggeration of these guys, honestly, they play a great brand of footy, and would encourage you all to have a gheez if you cna.

 

[Roy M'goy]

Why is nobody talking about Taione Taka's try on the weekend? To run up the line with that many players coming to take him out so late in the game sure does highlight how much potential he has. Sure does have the knack.

 

[Sully]

Unlocking this for the posters who are interested in the games on the weekend. There will be zero tolerance from now on.

 

[rugby.jacko]

Any predictions for the weekend?

 

[RuckTickler45]

@rugby.jacko It will certainly be interesting to see how Churchie shape up against Nudgee this week. Key player and fullback Treyvon Pritchard making a return for the blue and grey will certainly assist in bolstering their chances. Furthermore, Nudgee is going without dangerous fly half Charlie O'connell (blue card) as well as inside centre Carter Welfare. Keen to see how replacement 10 Archie Mesritz fairs. However, if last weekends demolition against TSS is anything to go off, I wouldn't be surprised to see another 45 point deficit going Nudgee's way.

Is Archie Mesritz under 16s or opens, either way I'm excited to see him play hopefully he can fill the role of Charlie O'connell! Seems like Churchie Vs Nudgee might be the game to watch this weekend...

I think games between IGS v BBC and TSS v TGS will be more off a closer outcome and worth the watch. Archie is Opens aswell played seconds last week
